Video Game Reviews of Fantastic Four
Customer Review: Something Wicked Comes This Way...
Summary: 3 Stars
I love bad games...I guess it's some twisted kind of fetish. Don't get me wrong, good games are great but bad games are fabulous. And "Fantastic Four" is a bad game. I won't pretend to be well versed in video game history, but from I can tell this game was made relatively early into Playstations career. That's not an excuse...more like an consideration when attempting to review this mess.
So what's so bad? The game lacks any amount of polish what so ever. I would love to have heard the conversation when this bosses over at Acclaim took a look at this one. The graphics aren't really bad at all. A bit blocky and rough, but pleasing regardless. The inclusion of the super cool She-Hulk is a definate plus (although she seems tacked on to the project). The controls aren't too bad, a bit unresponsive but still playable. You've got on kick button, one punch button, one for blocking, and one for jumping (more like skipping)...but three separate buttons for throwing? Must be an inside joke.
I shall repeat that the game lacks any sense of fluidity or flow. The designers included a stupid racing games for the loading screen (which really isn't too long at all) that never seems to work the same way twice. And in the middle of the level you find yourself fighting random Marvel Superheroes types (Iceman? Whatever). And let me tell you...She-Hulk is one big mama. She dwarfs every other character in the game...including both the thing and Hulk himself. She's a big girl.
So what's so fun about this bad game? First of all the property is cool...and I have a personal biase towards mindless button masher style fighting games. It's obviously much for fun mashing those buttons with others...but if you feel the need to see a true "bad but oh so good" gem from the PSX vault...go for it.
