Nobody is more sure that Deadpool is the coolest comic book character in the universe than he, himself, but you might find it hard to disagree. His eccentric personality and the fact that he may or may not hear voices doesn't detract from his legendary fighting technique. He may be a mercenary who takes on missions for money, but he also enjoys the perk of attracting the ladies with his astounding skills. So if you like running your mouth, eating chimichangas for breakfast, beating bad guys with their own arms and, most importantly, saving humans and mutants everywhere, then Deadpool has everything you're looking for. Behold the awesome, jaw-dropping action that explodes out of your screen and take on the role of this off-the-wall comic book character as he teams up with some of the celebrated characters from the X-Men franchise. The third-person perspective gives you the perfect view to appreciate some of the changes Deadpool made, so you can see things like he sees them. Get ready to take down bad guys with Deadpool's favorite arsenal of items, including katanas, guns and duct tape — you never know when it'll come in handy. Whether you're laughing at his crazy antics or engaged in heart-pounding combat, you're sure to become captivated by Deadpool.
I was really excited for this game to come out on Xbox 360. However, after playing it, I'm a lil disappointed. While Deadpool's inner and outer dialogue with his multiple personalities as well as other characters in the game is nothing short of comedic genius, the storyline, or lack thereof, is slightly disheartening. Also, from level to level, it starts to feel fairly repetitive. The graphics, audio and gameplay is pretty good for the most part. The witty banter, the use of other characters from the Marvel Universe and the leveling up system are enough to keep you playing...BUT...I do find myself (often) wishing for better and more diverse levels. They're far too linear to call "Deadpool" a "great" game. Another aspect I find bothersome are the enemies. It feels like they go straight from being a normal, fair difficulty to being far too difficult fit where you are, and what you have to use in the game. All in all, of you're a Comic fan or a Deadpool fan specifically, you can find a decent amount of entertainment in the game, but don't expect anything epic. I would recommend either renting it first or waiting for a price drop.
