Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent game
Comment: X-Men Legends II: The Age of Apocalypse is a 3d RPG based on the X-Men from the Marvel Comics universe. As the title says the ultimate boss is Apocalypse himself.
Pros
Gameplay is really fun for a while.
Graphics are OK, very appropriate for a comics based franchise.
The AI of your comrades and your enemies is acceptable.
The easy mode is really easy. This is a must for kids and casual gamers.
Alternate costumes, so you can outfit your heroes the way you remember/prefer them.
The selection of playable characters is great.
Having some alternate costumes like Jean's Phoenix and Dark Phoenix is awesome.
The bosses, npc and other cameos are amazing. The developers borrow many things from the Age of Apocalypse Saga, but not the alternate reality plot from the original storyline.
Being able to play with not so mainstream characters like Sunfire, Deadpool and the Scarlet Witch is really nice. Or villains like Juggernaut...
Cons
The item picking/selling system gets really annoying. You'll find yourself teleporting to your HQ many times only to sell the excess of items so you can continue picking more of them.
There comes a time when your characters can't increase level fast enough, it gets boring.
There are many NPCs I'd want to play with: Archangel (not angel), Black Queen, White Queen, Blob, Havok, Shadowcat, Forge, Blink, Dazzler, Pyro and Vindicator.
Psylocke, my favorite x-woman is not a playable character. I'd like to have Siryn, Firestar and Quicksilver too.
Cannonball, Cable, Pyro, Sabretooth are exclusive playable characters of other platforms.
There are too many objects to destroy, so I find myself using Sunfire to blast objects in every room and corridor in search of secrets, it gets tiresome after a while.
Having Iron Man as an unlockable playable characters in an x-men game is odd.
The villains are the most interesting characters from the x-men comics, is a shame I can't play as Mister Sinister, Omega Red, Holocaust, Abyss or Apocalypse.
Playable Characters:
Cyclops
Iceman
Jean Grey
Storm
Colossus
Wolverine
Nightcrawler
Sunfire
Rogue
Bishop
Gambit
Scarlet Witch
Juggernaut
Magneto
Toad
Deadpool
Iron Man
Professor X
OK, maybe most of the cons are not really cons but more of a wish list for x-men legends 3. I've already played Marvel Ultimate Alliance, but that is another story.

Summary: X-Men Legends II Rise of the Apocalypse
Comment: It's a great game and arrived in perfect condition.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Fun if you like X-men
Comment: When I ordered the seller said that it would take 4 weeks to receive. I got it in 3 days. Other than the order speed, I liked the changes in skills that X-men ledgends one doesn't provide. However, the story line is lacking. Players that don't know the X-men story should not get lost in the game, but I think that knowing the story makes the game just a little better. I gave it 4 out of 5 star for the overall rating because the bosses throughout the game were too easy while some of the other enemies were harder.
Customer Rating:
Summary: good action rpg
Comment: good for xmen fans and probably for those who are not. this game is kinda long, lots of items, small improvements over the first.
