PS3 Review – X-Men Origins: Wolverine – Uncaged Edition

11/15/2009 Written by Joseph Peterson

The controls of the game are great; players won’t find themselves wishing that they could customize them.  The amount of combos that can be learned is pretty impressive too; there are definitely enough combos and finishers to keep players satisfied.

The game has a lot of differences from the movie.  Things don’t happen in the game the same way they do in the movie in multiple instances.  Considering I saw the movie before I played the game, I found myself saying, “That’s not how it happened,” several times while playing the title.  It’s not a bad thing at all; personally, I think it’s better that the game provides a somewhat unique experience.

Overall, the game is a fun experience, especially for Wolverine and Marvel fans, and even hack and slash fans.  The game is not groundbreaking, but it does a lot of things right that many gamers will enjoy.

PlayStation LifeStyle’s Final Score

A great Wolverine title that takes a darker, more serious approach

Regeneration effects are amazing

Pretty good story that is a bit different from the movie

7 out of 10

    what’s the difference between the regular one and this uncaged edition? Does this one have the DLC in it already? Anyways this is an awesome game and shows more gruesome murders in it than what the movie showed and l loved the part with the sentinel which should have been in the movie. Good score and it played like a GoW game which is probably why l liked it

    much better review than IGN’s for this title. IGN always said that the story didn’t make any sense and the movie didn’t either. I followed both just fine so I don’t know what that says about the guys over at IGN…..Overall this was a great game, lots of fun, solid gameplay, and awesome gore. However, when it came down to it, it was really only worth one play through and I sold it right away but NOT TO GAMESTOP! I know better. I got $45 for my copy on eBay instead of the $15 or $20 I would have gotten from trading it.

    Good review. I think it on point. This is a fun title, The button mashing can get old at some points though

    Uncaged edition has the fighting arena, you can buy it on the PSN for regular edition owners.

    this game kicks ass btw, right up there with Batman once you level up a bit
