[quote name='blindinglights']You think it's good, yet you give it a D+?[/QUOTE]
I do not translate my scores into a letter grade... if I was to have arbitrarily assigned a letter grade, I'd have given it a C+. I use an 11-criteria rating system which adds up to a sum out of 100 points. For basis of comparison, Grand Theft Auto IV scored 87/100, Prince Of Persia (2008) scored 67/100, Rogue Warrior scored 59/100, Saw scored 48/100, and the original Force Unleashed scored 69/100.
For Overall Impression, I gave Wolverine an 8/10.
For Story, a 7/10.
Production Value, a 5/10 due to extreme amount of glitches.
Quality of Game Design, a 7/10.
Depth, a 7/10 due to a long campaign that requires 2 full playthroughs, but nothing left for replay value after that.
For the strength of the Single Player campaign, a 4/5.
For Multiplayer, a 0/5 by default, since there is none.
Graphics, 8/10, I thought they were pretty good although some poor design choices were made in a few levels.
Audio, 6/10, there were some glitches and oddities in the surround sound handling.
For overall Fun factor, 7/10, I enjoyed it although there were some parts that dragged on a bit, and the many glitches were frustrating.
And finally, for Originality, 8/10, because although there were many different gameplay mechanics that are recycled from prior games, I can't recall any other game that has put them together in the same combination.
Overall it is a recommended buy at $15 or less.
