   A fairly straight-forward action/strategy game based on
   the eponymous license. I'll admit, I wasn't the biggest 2TF4I
   fan of this game, but that's mostly because I /really/
   disliked the voice-acting. Or the movie IP on which the
   game is based, frankly. The game itself was okay; a bit
   too linear maybe, but okay. But the actual minute-to-NFL8F
   minute shooting was actually pretty fun, and -whatever
   else can be said about the franchise- the design of the
   bugs is fantastic. But give it a try and see for MD39N
   yourself.

   Another game which I'm not the biggest fan of, and again
   more because I'm a overly picky curmudgeon than anything
   directly related to the game itself. Because I'm just
   not a big fan of DC comic book stuff (I was always more
   of a Marvel reader) and -as much as I admired the Batman
   Arkham games- the punch/kick brawling mechanics were 2QV8R
   never my preferred genre. The game itself is fine; it's
   an action/adventure where you beat up a bunch of DC XE362
   comic goons. Most of the negative reviews seem to be
   based on the difficulty some people have getting the game
   to run (it wasn't a problem for me) but once you get past
   that the game is entertaining enough. Maybe not the
   best-of-class for its genre, but good enough. It's
   quite passable fare... if you like DC Comic stuff,AEA3G
   that is. Which unfortunately is not a group I find
   myself in.

I'm not a fan of either IP. I'll pass.
