Marvel's Avengers: 10 Reasons You Should Be Worried
10. The Gameplay SUCKS
Remember those Iron Man video games released by SEGA to coincide with the first two Iron Man movies? They were terrible, and taking control of the Armoured Avenger sadly wasn't anywhere near as much fun as it should have been.
Well, things haven't improved in Marvel's Avengers; taking charge of Iron Man is a relatively enjoyable experience, but one which doesn't appear to have evolved in over a decade. Flying across the Golden Gate Bridge feels neither exciting nor any more advanced than it did in 2008, while the likes of Captain America, Thor, and The Hulk feel more basic than they were on the previous generation's consoles.
Throw in the fact that you can get through levels with little more than mashing two buttons (hitting switches and beating up identical baddies like its 2005), and the whole experience just sucks. When things do start heating up, and Quick Time Events take over, and those are both unbelievably easy and undeniably uninspired.
There's nothing intuitive on display, and no real difference between controlling characters.
