This is still the best Wolverine game ever made and needs to come back. Seeing this game return would be nice for everyone that didn't get a chance to play it years ago when it came out. I miss this game a lot and I miss being Wolverine.
Great game from the legendary studio Raven Software, really great gem. A shame is missing in all stores. Glad if come back and play again as the grumpy wolverine.
Surprised Marvel didn't at all try to capitalize on Deadpool & Wolverine hype and re-release this and Deadpool game in some way. Simple fact it is M-rated makes it best Wolverine game out there. Still have my original disc and while it is technically a movie tine-in game, it was being worked on for like a year and a half before, so they weren't as rushed and had a good skeleton ready for it. It does have a bit of repetitive stuff, but not being held back a T-rating makes it fresh enough.
I'd love to be able to play this one since I never got the chance to play it. Wolverine is one of my favorite characters in Marvel Comics and he defo needs more video games. Hoping for a remake soon
A surprisingly solid hack and slash that just about everyone agrees is better than the movie that it ties in with. Leaping from target to target is great, the visceral combat is varied just enough so that it hardly gets boring. The only thing that holds it back, gameplay wise, are some of the repetitive minibosses. The PC port absolutely needs to come back, since it's easy to modify the ini files to improve the graphics. I know licensing can be a great big pain, but this is one game that shouldn't go abandoned, if possible.
This is hands down the best wolverine game and no longer can be considered a god of war clone, it has held up as well if not better than Gow 1 and 2, it's unprecedented, especially for a movie licensed game...todays technology could bring this up to today's standards.

This game is incredible and very difficult to find nowadays, making it accessible is necessary. This game is incredible and very difficult to find nowadays, making it accessible is necessary.
There is a cruel Irony that this is one of the best hack and slash and wolverine games I got to play and its tie in movie dosent hold a candle to it and isnt good forever tainting its reputation. It has everything you could want, riping people in half, into quarters, stab people with your claws, with the environment, and some incredible cinematics that really makes me think that this game was originally going to be a stand alone title, but switched when the movie was announced, play this game if you can get your hands on it.

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.Top Trending Action Fantasy Comedy Sandbox
