I was very close to opting for a 10. Just those handful of very minor platforming annoyances hold it back. What a belter but.

@Fenbops Definitely give it a whirl, it's aged really well and it's just a great experience. I reckon it'll suck you in fairly quickly if you give it a chance.

Merry Christmas!

@MaccaMUFC I mean, I did say that in the review. You're either gonna love it or not. It's a light-hearted ribbing of a game I didn't enjoy. Don't worry about it.

@Mince : )

@CunningPig I hated GTA V.

@Beermonkey Enjoy it, dude! My review is just my opinion. Enjoy it!

@NEStalgia It really is awful. I think if you like the humour it smoothes over this stuff because you want to see what one of your guns says next. It's the most marmite thing I've played in ages.

@Mince Dude. Put the bong down.

@JayJ You didn't like the music?! Dude. The soundtrack on this game is a cracker. Maybe just not for you.

@Darylb88 Yasss

@themightyant Yeah, I haven't read any other reviews of the game but I disagree completely with the idea it's bad or breaks the characters. There's some cheese and lame lines here and there, it's easy enough to post a video clip and make it look bad, but overall, and when you dig into the social aspect of it and take it as a whole, it's actually a very well written and likeable portrayal of these heroes. You get to know a lot about their personal motivations, and it goes beyond the usual bland smartass quips that we get in some other marvel stuff and even in the movies tbh. It's just good fun, endearing stuff. Of course this is just my opinion.

@Kaloudz There really aren't any scares here beyond the jump scares of the surprise small enemies. It's pretty much all out action for the second half too. It's violent over scary.

@CunningPig Yep, as I said in the review, it's gonna be an acquired taste this one. The screenshots change around as you reload the page.

@PJOReilly But as far as them attacking goes, it's barely even about that, it's about raking them down and keeping your combo meter going when there's a lull in the action by getting clever with environmental damage. It's absolutely an acquired taste this stuff.

@CunningPig That's 100% a design decision though. It's a good looking game but it's also very knowingly retro arcade stuff. That look, the countless samey baddies, it's an aesthetic choice.

@hypnotoad DON'T CALL ME SHIRLEY.

@hypnotoad Haha. Nobody said call the cops. Play it. Tell me it doesn't start repeating itself. It just doesn't do enough.

@Titntin It's when you're playing it. The visual cues and setup of the levels, it's very, very old-fashioned. Which is fine. But I'm not giving it high scores for copying ten year old action games. It needs a few tricks of its own in there too, which it doesn't have. It is still fun though. It's throwaway nonsense.

@GrizzledVeteran online only.

@BlackMayge Hope you enjoy it, but please let me know if you found it got repetitive and boring a few hours in.

@Stoned_Patrol It's just different people's opinions of things, mate, you can make your own mind up.

@Amin1998 Not sure about verified but I've been chatting folk playing it on there and apparently it runs perfectly.

@somnambulance I mentioned it in the review, it's roughly 20hrs, maybe a bit less depending on how thoroughly you explore. You could do it in 15.

@Sol4ris I mean, I agree with you, but I've been playing fifa forever and never spent a penny on FUT. Still gotta review the rest of the game, which is very good.

@Darylb88 Have you tried the workarounds we've detailed in the article?

@Kaloudz EA Sports FC!

@Would_you_kindly It's on PS for £20 I believe.

@GreyGhost117 Great! Have fun!

@GreyGhost117 I had this too, went into search on home screen and went to the game in the store that way and it worked fine!

@Kaloudz seems to be finished, not quite sure what that tag is about.

@Pac_Bot Oh, nice!

Honestly, it blew me away when i booted it up, such a great game.

just opinions, guys. let's all chill.

My bad about the local mp on Switch, it seems it is included after all, apologies for that, I shall go for a nap.

@Fenbops Honestly, as long as you know going in its not a AAA experience, it's rough around the edges in cutscenes and has that low budget vibe that all their games do. It's very good, and it gets much better as it goes along. Don't judge it on the opening couple of hours. Have fun!

@Fiendish-Beaver Seems to have more bugs on PS5 btw, there's audio issues and stuff that i didn't encounter at all on Xbox.

@GuyinPA75 Yep!

@clvr Not sure atm

@Tsushima Yeah, I enjoy the old ones. They're not entirely my cup of tea, fairly average overall, but they are decent for a bit of silly nonsense.

@Rangers420 Honestly, i wouldn't even then.

@Dusk_Actual Yeah, for the right price i think it's prob still worth a look if you're into the genre.

@AhabSpampurse you should be proud.

@JayJ Yeah, some of them really are very well hidden!

@JayJ You're in for a big treat!

@Shigurui The performance issues are the only reason why it's not on here, still quite rough, hopefully they'll eventually sort it.

@Savage_Joe Oh yes, sorry my bad, I didn't read the original question properly! You can play 1v1, team and free for all against bots, just no dedicated single player stuff rn, which is what I was on about.

@suikoden No idea about that side of things just yet.

@UltimateOtaku91 It's surprisingly not that far off it, unbelievably. Feels really good to play, could be an absolute banger if they get the expansion of their roster and stages right.

@Avaloner No ploblem!
