What a pleasant little surprise in a cute little package. Wolverine is the best little pet in the world. But you can't keep him caged, oh no. In fact, there's nothing cute or pet like about him. While the X-Men Origins movie was so-so, this game is flippin' awesome! It's got everything Wolverine fans want in a game with very few problems.

Set in a variety of vivid real-world locales, the title challenges players to hone their animal instinct as they uncover hidden dangers, hunt and destroy enemies, and take on seemingly insurmountable situations while discovering the truth about Wolverine's tragic past. With razor-sharp adamantium claws unsheathed, the future X-Man enacts lightning-quick combat, evasive maneuvers, in-depth combo attacks, and an array of brutal finishing moves. Wolverine doesn't just deliver massive damage, either – he also takes it, thanks to his mutant regenerative power that heals him in real time right before the player's eyes.... (more)(less)

I wouldn't call the movie "horrible" but yeah, it wasn't great by any stretch of the imagination. Defiantly check the game out (especially since it's probably pretty cheap by now!) if you like hack n'
Granted that it wouldn't be very difficult to top the horrible X-Men Origins: Wolverine film, this game is one I have been waiting to play for some time now. Excellent and straight to the point review

First and foremost, the gameplay. You are Wolverine, a crazy lunatic animal with claws coming out of your hands. You can claw, scratch and lunge at your enemies just like you've always wanted to completely dominate them. In fact, you can even rip them out of their helicopter seats and shove their head up into the rotor blades! Why not? This game has very fluid gameplay that allows the player to feel like Wolverine. Executing combos is extremely ” read more

Challenging "puzzles"
Wolverine is meant to just be an animal who wanders around linear locations slicing people to shreds. This game for the most part gets it right, but the inclusion of various puzzles feels completely out of place. To the game's credit it has "Feral Sense" to help you sort out the puzzles, but at times the puzzles are utterly nonsensical. It's a fine line to walk between skilfully-designed, easy puzzles and irritating puzzles, and the game has too many in the latter catego"

"I like X-men and I liked the X-men trilogy. I didn't however care much for the Wolverine movie. Whether you agree with me or not doesn't matter, this Wolverine game is everything anyone wants in a Wolverine game. Want to rip someone's arms off? Ok. Chop a leg? Sure. Pick up a guy and shove his head into rotating helicopter rotors!?! Oh my gosh that's a lot of blood. Origins: Wolverine finally lets us have the bloody-gory truth of Wolverine at our fingertips. This is rated M for sure. It's a game"
