SUPERMAN MAN OF STEEL GAMES FREE
We've already posted our own review of the film here, so feel free to see for yourself what we thought, but other critics are anticipating a masterpiece as well. To say the film is expected to be a blockbuster is a huge understatement. The game was not well-received, and after plans for a sequel to the film were scrapped, any hope for further momentum on a quality Superman game appeared dead.Īll of that leads to this week's release of Zack Snyder's Man of Steel. The most recent game, 2006's Superman Returns, is loosely based on the film of the same name, with several of Superman's villains appearing in the game and infamously having a tornado appear as the final boss. It's impossible to separate which caused the other, but one fact remains clear: The Batman games are infinitely playable, easy to control, have an engrossing storyline, and tons of complexity in how the game unfolds. The Batman games don't have a direct correlation to the Christopher Nolan film series, but the popularity of those films and the wild success of the first two Arkham games share a strong relationship, especially since the games and the films all were released in a relatively quick seven-year span.
What gives? What has prevented Superman from having a largely successful game in the style of Batman's Arkham Asylum franchise? While these games and others proved to be successes, the same cannot be said for games where Supes is the sole or primary hero. Over the past thirty years over a dozen video games starring Superman have been released, not including games where he is part of a larger ensemble such as Injustice: Gods Among Us or Justice League Heroes.
Superman may be able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, out run a locomotive, stop a bullet, see through walls, and more, but he has found success in the video game market to be his Kryptonite.
