Justice League is an awesome game, but a little short on play time... November 15, 2006
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I recently aquired Justice League for two reasons: 1. Because if you love anything to do with comics and superheroes than this is right up your alley and 2. Because of the appeal from the Marvel Legends games that it seemed DC was finally about to receive it's day in the sun. When I first began playing the game I was a little miffed that I couldn't choose my superheroes, but I understood the reasoning behind the fact that I needed to learn how to operate with certain characters before moving on to the more advanced (and not so powerful) ones. But do not be disheartened...eventually you get to choose. The other thing that I immediately noticed upon buying the game was that it was only available for up to two players...and that is a slight sticking point because to truly enjoy any "build 'em up" superhero game, you have to be able to enjoy it with friends, and I don't know about you, but I certainly have more than one friend out there interested in playing this game! The graphics are excellent for the system I was playing on (xbox) and overall I enjoyed the storyline, but I wished I could have played on longer...just as I was getting a few of my superheroes up to a decent power level...the game was over (although, just like in Marvel Legends, it does allow you to continue on with the same characters starting over). I do enjoy the "shield" collecting in order to purchase new costumes and Justice Leaguers, but I believe I collected as many shields as possible in one game and I still have things left to buy, so choose wisely! Picking up boosts and combining them in order to improve certain powers on superheroes was a little confusing at first, as some combos work better with others...just keep in my mind that no boost will go above level 6. Overall, the game was well worth the purchase price eventhough it was short on playing time, but I have no doubt that I will be going back through the game several times to up my superheroes and take 'em to the max!

A Worthy Beginning November 10, 2006

Okay, the bad: Not as good as the X-Men Legends games. Your team is limited to two players on the screen at a time. There aren't that many characters to choose from. There aren't that many super powers to choose from. You can't always choose your own team.
That's a lot of bad, but the good more than makes up for it.
There is no game, no matter the superhero team that can compete with playing as the Justice League. Plain and simple. The X-Men are great, but the Justice League is legendary. You can't beat playing as Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman or the Flash (and don't forget their alternate costumes). The limited super powers you get are actually appropriate to the character (for the most part). I'd rather have appropriate powers (like Batman's martial arts skills) than arbitrary powers that are there just to be there (like in the X-Men games and Ultimate Alliance). And what other game can you go up against Doomsday and Darkseid? None. The graphics look better than the other superhero games, too, as there is less clutter. And let's not forget these three words: Golden Age Flash.
Overall, this is not the best superhero roleplaying game out there, but it is a worthy start, with sequels hopefully to follow. In way, it is more rewarding than the Marvel games as it does give you a sense of playing some legendary characters, and it does offer replay value. I also didn't notice any weird loading glitches like I did with X-Men Legends II, a game I have to start over because all my saves caused the game to freeze on load up.
A good start November 8, 2006

I typically agree with most of the comments here. It's a very linear storyline, just like the Baldur's Gate, Champions of Norrath games from Snowblind Studios.
My enjoyment came from exploring all of the different super powers of the heroes and using them in combat. In playing the heroes, you got the feeling that the programmers took pains to craft each character's abilities as they should be. The fact that they did this AND made the interface as simplistic as possible is really the best part of the game.
So, overall, if you're a fan of superheroes, this game is worth it. I'll be excited to see some improvements in a sequel, though: namely non-linearity of gameplay and flexibility of character selection.
Pretty Good - But I want More! November 6, 2006

I was very excited about this game because I'm a huge fan of the DC Comics universe. I found this to be pretty much a knock-off of X-Men: Legends, but since I enjoyed that, I enjoyed this too, especially since I like the characters better.
Despite what some of these other reviews say, I think the graphics are really good and the characters are true to form. What this game offers is great; I just wish there was more--more story, more levels, more gameplay.
