I rented this and spent about 2 hours playing so far. So I thought this was an easy 1000 but for one achievement you need to play for 12 hours. 12 hours? I could barely manage one hour of this self inflicted torture masquerading as a videogame. Thats not just bullshit, thats bullshit on a platter with a boar's head with an apple stuck in its mouth. And then you have to mess about with rubber bands to get 10,000 miles... oh but the battery in my controller will run out if i leave it on overnight.
Dangit, looks like ill be sending this one back to SG with only 200 points on it :mad:

I agree with you, easily in the top 5 worst games for the 360. It's fun to fly around for about 15 minutes, then it sucks

It forced me to buy a Plug-and-Play kit, and I just left my box on overnight and got the 10,000 Miles and 12 Hours achievements during the night. Other than that it's not so bad.

You have only played the game for 2 hours. Try playing thru the game 4 times just to find the Kittens. That rough shit right there. But I think this is the worst game on the 360

Yeah I think this is definitely the worst game on the 360.

I am contemplating on getting this one just for the fun of flying around. I am aware the game sux so i am gonna use cheats just to get through it much quicker... what do you guys think? Will is still be able to get achivements points??

Probably not. I've can't think of any Xbox Game that will allow achievments to be unlocked while cheats are on.
But from what I can tell playing it you cannot die. You can lose Metropolis but you are still good.

Guys there are tons of post/threads concerning this. Feel free to check ( as you should have ) It you use the cheats you can still get all your achievements. Hell there's even an achievement for using the cheat codes. So cheat away.......

Wow, I knew this game got some low reviews but I found it mostly enjoyable. Granted I'm a big Superman fan so that's probably why. Definitely not the best 360 game out there... but FAR from the worst.

Sorry I'm Like Rdysn5 (http://xbox360achievements.org/forum/member.php?u=4468) I have to vent. 10000 miles what the hell. This games so gay. I cant wait till monday to send it back to gamefly. Piss on superman!

Yeah I think the 10,000 miles and lifting achievements are pretty outrageous. (I'm actually in the process of getting the stupid 10,000 mile one right at this moment. I almost tossed my controller trying to get the joysticks just how i wanted them:uzi:)
but overall I've had some fun, flying around is cool, but the game does get monotonous: fight some enemies, fight some enemies, put out a fire, boss. rince and repeat. boring, but I think I can tough it out for the 1000.:woop:

I'm in the midst of playing it right now. Borrowed from a friend and was hesitant when I first put it in. I got the mini-games and kittens out of the way at the beginning and now I can enjoy the storymode and it's not bad at all imo.

I just started this game, I am literally 40 minutes into the game, and I want to rip out my eyeballs and take a steaming dump on the game disk just before I send it back to Gamefly. If I didn't have some form of OCD with achievements I would have done so already...but it looks like i'll be spending some time getting FUCKING KITTIES. God I feel like such a pansy, no offense to any actual pansies, it's just WTF, does Superman really rescue kitties? Doesn't metropolis have a god damn fire department, plus what the fuck kind of pet owners let a cat get on top of a FUCKING SKY SCRAPER!!!! is that shit even possible?

I too have some sort of achievement OCD. I never thought of it that way before. Someone who has kicked the habit should start a support group cause I don't think I could do it on my own. It blows

You would think after you beat the game they would allow you to turn crimes on or off. (Like Crackdown) i have 30 more kittens to go and even with the guide some of them are still hard as fuck to find and then when you do find them you have to go fight some stupid robots. and there's no way i'm restarting the game to refind all those stupid things.
Caddius

I gotta say, not the greatest game, but not all that bad either. I do think the achievements are a bit nuts. 100 kittens are a lot to find without a guide, the 10,000 flying miles is way too much, it should be closer to around 2,500 miles.
I think the story needed some better writing, it had little to do with the movie, but over all, it's easy 1000 achievements thanks to some pointers here online, and not a bad game for one play through. I doubt I ever pick this one back up.

I will be getting this game tomorrow. Mid you,. its not that I want to, its simply because Future Shop randomly decided to bundle it whit Enchanted Arm as a part of there Boxing day sale... Anyway, I am just hopping that Superman Returns isn't to dreadful... Especially since I am not a Superman fan whatsoever (I haven't even seen the movie...).

I'm sorry, but did you mean to say 'Superman is a God. Too bad the game wasn't as good ?'
If you didn't then I apologise and would like to know what you did just try and say. Also, if there is any chance you can try and use grammar in the future, then I'm sure that other posters would appreciate it also.
Good day to you !

No truer words have been spoken than in this thread. WTF is up with the dragons and blimps is this 1940 or King Arthur's time period. Where do robots fall into that time period? If your going to make a game pick a time period and stick with it. I can barley stomach 15 minutes of this game at a time, between this and Xmen I feel the need to puke every half hour I'm playing. Don't just love getting games as gifts!
These blimps are pissing me off, do I have to save all 3 or just one. When I blow King Arthur's dragons away they come back so wtf the point?
Great Job EA you just lowered the bar so fucking so low an ants balls dangle above it. I hope they fired the fuckers that produced and created this game and they are homeless in Alaska this winter.
Even this venting didn't really help...... But thanks for letting me. Never needed anger management until Stupidman the Video Game was played.

I only downloaded the Demo and it looks like i'm not missing much. I was going to ask if its worth 1$9.99? Now what's the point? I think the general consensus is that the game isn't worth playing.

I like it. Y'all just don't understand how awesome being superman is.
ThePumpkinKing

It's an awesome game when you just feel like flying around being Superman.
Unfortunately that, and the vertical scoring/sound production are the only redeeming qualities.
It had the potential to be amazing. But they screwed the pooch on that one. Then again, it is EA.
I really hope a good development team realizes how awesome a "Death of Superman" game would be.

Thought it was the best Superman games to date - that sure isn't saying anything. The city of Metropolis is amazing! Actually thought the controls were decent and the superspeed was cool. Seemed like so much time went into designing the city, but the devs were rushed to meet a release date, so missions just went out the window.
The final achievements were pure garbage. 10k miles? I finished the game and barely flew 2k!!! Thank God for plug and play and rubber bands. At least I finished off the 12 hrs playtime during this.
Yet another potentially great game down the toilet.

You're exactly right, Fonkey Monkey, I'm at 570 as we speak. This is one of the dullest games I've ever played. There are like 4 bad guys and you just keep fighting them over and over and over. Then the last part is... fighting all of them again over and over. The city looks cool from above but the people and cars looks so crappy. Puts me to sleep...
