X-Men: Next Dimension brings a solid 3D fighter to the X-Men universe. In addition, Gamecube owners will be pleased as a time attack and team attack mode missing from the Playstation 2 version is included. Those who are familiar with X-Men comics will also be glad to know the story lines are adhered to with Bastion making a reappearance in his latest attempt to wipe out mutants. Others features like numerous unlockable components and multiple gameplay modes all increase the replay value and originality with the story mode in particular, expanding the game for X-Men fans. What it does to help counteract some of these short falls however is to include features like a story mode that is rarely seen in this genre. Other issues like easily executed combos that can subtract from the skill level required by hardcore fans and controls that could be more responsive all keep X-Men: Next Dimension out of the same league as some of the best 3D fighting games.
Cyclops and a few others are almost unbeatable once mastered as their particular fighting skills outmatch their opponents' and can create consistently lopsided matches. For instance, as with most fighting games, keeping the characters balanced is key and X-Men: Next Dimension has some problems here.
Although not as solid a 3D fighter as Tekken 4 or Virtua Fighter 4, it still brings enough to the table including a story mode that helps fill some of the gameplay gaps that hardcore 3D fighting fans might run into.Īlthough the gaps aren't severe, some are moderate and associated mainly with the gameplay. X-Men: Next Dimension is Activision's latest fighting game that attempts to bring the same success to next generation consoles that Mutant Academy brought to the Playstation.
