Finally, A Game For The Fans That Is Worth Playing

"Shadow of Apokolips" is the perfect title for this game since there is very little Apokolips or Darkseid in it. The game itself is really fun, but maybe more fun for fans of the TV series. We, as fans, are treated with the return of the entire cast and the writing does feel just like an episode. It being based on the TV series, casual Superman fans may not get the same thrill out of it like those who love the TV show.

One of the big things missing from the game is the TV theme song. I was listening for it the entire time, and it never plays. That was kind of a downer. I also wish they had Brainiac and Bizarro on this game, but they are missing as well.

What is great about the game is that it is fun and not easy. They didn't make this game extremely easy for the kiddies, but it is actually challenging in some parts. With all of the challenges, the game can still be beat in less than 5 hours. Overall, this is a game for the fans. If you love the TV series, you will love this. I would suggest that you may want to rent it first if you are just a casual fan of superheroes.

Very Good Game

I really like superman I expected this game to be better like the graphics.The graphics aren't that good and when you pick something it
takes a while to pick it up.

I really enjoyed this video game. It really makes you feel like your part of the animated cartoon. The cell shading and voice acting is top notch. The only gripe I have concerning this game is that it's relatively short. There is no multiplayer or costume/bonus levels to unlock so the replay value is quite limited.

I definitely recommend this game to fans of Superman the animated series or anyone who enjoys playing the part of a superhero.

Hardcore gamers should stay away since it won't measure up to their standards.

Shadow of Apokolpis may have some of the best graphics I've seen in a game. It helps that it's based on the animated series giving the game a cartoonish feel to it almost identical to the series. I also love the fact that the game really makes you feel the true might of Superman. You'll find yourself in many situations in which you get your chance to use all the variety of Superman's famous powers.

The game have some easy stages at the beginning but don't press your luck, it gradually gets extremely hard to play. As is common with Superman, The Man of Steel is set to do nearly impossible tasks. Fustrating as it could've been, the difficulty level also forces you to think like Superman. It's not the kind of game you're willing to set aside just because it's difficult. Instead, it encourages you to challenge the stages. The volcano stage in particular was amazing. It's so grand in an epic scale that you're forced to use all of Superman's might to beat it.

Shadow of Apokolips is way on top among the best games I've ever played.

The Best Superman Game Ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got this superman game in gamestop in vetura and I still own it since june and I have to admit it is a really good game and the gameplay just amazed me because you get all acess to superman's powers and that was cool too.The only thing I didn't like about this game is mashing the x button because my hands got so tired and it was hard but I beat the game already and it was a great game and an outstanding game and I give it more than 5 stars and I wish amazon let me rate this game 10 stars because this game deserves it and it is my number 1 superman game ever!This game is so good that it is better than the incredibles rise of the underminer game and this game is just too cool and this is my highest recommendation!

I actually like this game. It's the best one they have so far. I guess we will have see if the new Superman game will be the game of the year. Suppossedly it will have complete free flying, meaning you can go where ever you want around the city and up into the clouds. Wil it be the first movie to game that does'nt suck???

One of the best superhero games ever!

I had wanted to play Atari's Superman: Shadow of Apokolips since I learned it would be soon released, and on a whim I purchased it... and I must say that I was highly impressed! It actually feels like I am in an episode of the Superman cartoon. It's quite brilliant! The only draw backs to the whole Superman experience is that some of the villians are some of the more obscure, save Lex Luthor, his bodyguard Mercy Graves and Darkseid, and sometimes there is difficulty using the flying controls. They take quite some time to get used to. But overall, Superman: Shadow of Apokolips is a fantastic adventure well worth the [money] spent to purchase it.
