Weak

Repetitive

Iron Man is one of my favorite super hero characters. And it brings me great difficulty dissing this game but Iron Man is extremely repetitive and gets boring really quick.

Playing formidable mode is frustrating and definitely formidable. As you go deeper in missions you get ambushed 10x more every time and its RELENTLESS. I've tried different techniques to beat missions only to fail. I thought if i take out every jet plane it would get easier but the jet planes never stop appearing and they unload on you every time with a ton of missles. i destroyed over 70 jet planes in one mission and they kept coming. Its as if they have a million jetplanes lying around in the mountains of afganistan!!!

I got so frustrated trying to defeat entering "Maggies factory" I decided to play on normal level and the game totally deleted my progress in levels I defeated in formidable. In most games when you defeat a level you have the option to select the difficult afterward. NOT HERE. I had to start over again. The mission selection option is no longer an option if you decide to start a game at a different difficulty. AGAIN your not able to retrieve your previous mission accomplishments. But you can retrieve the video footage before the missions. Thanks ALOT!!!

Also missions are really long so if you defeat half the mission and die... You have to start all over again from the beginning. you could be near the end of the mission, if you die facing the boss... You have to start all over again doing the little stuff like destroying 80 planes + tanks, and military bases. AWESOME!

There's a difficult skill in the game where you push A button move to the side then push B button to catch incoming missles. Personally, Its a waste of time cause if you are lucky enough to catch a missle there's 5 coming toward you. Unfortunately I have to start all over again. Hopefully normal lever is much easier than formidable. Guess I won't get those achievement points. Thank you OH SO MUCH!

Built this in a cave ... with a box of scraps

To get the game devs in the proper frame of mind to build this game, they apparently mimicked the conditions of the cave that Tony Stark was locked up in in the movie. And fed them scraps. And had whips.

Its another bad movie game. What can I say. You fly around, you blow up stuff, you listen to witty commentary that they couldn't have bothered to get someone talented to write.

Some missions were frustratingly difficult, others were too easy. So an electro magnet is keeping Tony Stark alive and he'll die if it runs out of juice. One question, don't they make magnets that just work without any power?

Anyway, its fun for the kids but I really wish they'd put more time and thought into these movie games and make them more entertaining on their own, you should have to have watched the movie to understand whats going on.
