Leaping attacksAnyone who's read the comics will be familiar with Wolverine's iconic claw-first leap at enemies.

We were a little disappointed that his claws had no effect on the trees or other parts of the background though. Dismemberment should have been in Wolverine games from the start, so it's great to finally see it included. As Wolvie starts slashing an enemy they'll become covered in claw marks and the finishing slash will invariably lop off arms, legs and heads in a bright spray of blood. 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine The Videogame' is somewhat of a surprisingly competent and fun movie tie in-game, that has garnered something of a 'cult classic' reputation as the years have passed.ClawsSure, every wolverine game has let you use his claws, but never before have they been this lethal. While the movie the game is based on is not regarded well by fans of the X-Men universe. In June 2009, Activision also released downloadable content for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions, featuring a Custom Combat Arena, Ladder Challenge, and Environmental Simulator. The XP is used to level up, and each new level results in gaining skill points, which are used to purchase upgrades. Experience (XP) is collected from defeating enemies, destroying elements and accumulating collectables. During combat, Wolverine's rage meter builds up, and when full allows him to use more devastating attacks, like the claw spin and a berserker mode, which increases Wolverine's claw strength until his Rage Meter empties. Wolverine can also use the environment to his advantage, such as by impaling foes on spikes. Another form of attack is the lunge, which allows Wolverine to quickly close the distance to an enemy.

Enemies can be slain in several ways in addition to the graphic display of Wolverine's healing factor.Ĭombat relies on three options - light attacks, heavy attacks, and grabs.

The Uncaged Edition also features a large amount of blood. The game takes influences from games such as God of War and Devil May Cry with a third-person perspective.

X-Men Origins, along with most other games published by Activision that had used the Marvel licence, was de-listed and removed from all digital storefronts on January 1, 2014. X-Men Origins: Wolverine is a hack and slash action-adventure game loosely based on the film of the same name.
