  Let’s get something straight Iron Man 2 is no Batman Arkham Asylum and it’s no Spider-man 2 but I will say it is a decent movie tie-in game (even if it’s rough around the edges in some areas). For starters are a couple things I do and don’t like about Iron man 2 for the Nintendo Wii. let’s start with the graphics first. the good news is that the game looks way better than the first Iron man game for the Nintendo Wii ( which looks like someone took the PS2 graphics and slapped it on the wii) however the bad news is the graphics looks like someone was developing this for the GameCube then the wii. I won’t say it’s awful but compared to high voltage’s ( the same developers that worked on last years wii game the conduit) last game on the Wii (the Conduit) this looks like a step backwards (in terms of graphics for the wii) then a step forward ( plus for some reason Iron Man and War machines seem to run funny). another thing I don’t like is some of the voice acting. some of its okay but some of it sounds like there speaking like robots oh and one final thing I’m a little disappointed that the game is single player only game. It would’ve been nice to have a two player co-op. So what do I like about iron man 2 for the wii? well for starters the story doesn’t follow the plot of the movie rather the story takes place in the movie universe of i aron man 2 (plus it was written by renowned Iron Man comic writer Matt Fraction). but one thing I really like the most is that some of the control schemes from the conduit made it into the Wii version of Iron man 2. This includes adjusting the dead zone, how quickly you want to turn, and so on (although the default control scheme worked just well). So in the end iron man 2 won’t topple Batman Arkham Asylum (that game is in the league of its own)nor will it change movie tie-in games forever but it shows effort was put into the Wii version of Iron Man 2 and if they ever announce a Iron Man 3 game(considering how much money Iron Man 2 in making in theaters I wouldn’t be surprised) hopefully they’ll give the developers more time to make a good movie tie-in game.(something we haven’t seen since Spider-man 2)
