Not what I expected

What can I say, I expected a halfway polished game. This one has a fixed camera, buggy jumping controls, no real combo system to mention. It looks like they spent more time making the intro cut screen than the rest of the entire game. I had flash backs of playing "Hercules" on N64, do not waste your time on this game.

With all the technological advancements available to make GOOD games and one of the most famous Marvel characters and all they could come up with is a cheap hack and slash that keeps herding you along their unflinching trail. I thought Tomb Raider more than 10 years ago showed us that a game could be more than just move forward and kill useless computer generated weaklings.

Are you serious? Who's brilliant idea was it to ruin what could have a great game on the Wii. How could they not utilize the Wii motion controls in this game? Jeeze Cooking Mama even does that with many different motions. The programmers could have spent the time to really make this an excellent game for the Wii, not like it isn't already set up to be a great game for it.

I have a Wii and a PS3, but I wanted to get this game for the Wii because of the capabilities. I don't even want to play the game at all now... I could have just rented it for the PS3 if I wanted to play a button smasher.

EPIC PHAIL for the Wii.

Now I'm sure the game itself is still great, but it is an epic failure because the programmers failed miserably in doing something with the game on the Wii version that can't be done on the other systems. Very depressing I had to wait to get this game to just return it and have to wait to get another game worth playing on the Wii...
