Iron Man 2: The Video Game Review
The Short Version: Iron Man 2: The Video Game Sucks! Despite one of the developers promising in multiple interviews it wouldn’t. He had to have known too. Aside from fixed flight controls, the game ignores a massive opportunity for a co-operative mode and only delivers 4-5 hours of game play! For a Full Priced $60 game, Sega should be ashamed of themselves!
The Video Review:
What you’ll Like:
• Flying mechanics have been improved.
• Blow stuff up.
What you’ll Hate:
• THE GAME IS 4 HOURS LONG! For $60! Unacceptable, no matter how fun any missions are.
• The Voice Acting and Sound Effects are particularly weak. (except Samuel L. Jackson & Downey Impersonator)
• HUGE opportunity wasted by not including Co-op for War Machine fans.
• No Online modes outside of the 4-5 hour game play means this is play once & forget.
• Whiplash doesnt even make an appearance and there was no point to Black Widow’s character.
Final Verdict:
2/10
EPIC FAILURE! DO NOT BUY!

I guessed 4 hours, and then you said, “WRONG! 4HOURS!”
you invented the “Epic Fail seal of What The Fuck” here? Awesome.
And don’t you worry about the LotR licensed games – I will handle those.
I payed $12 for this game and actually really like it. You get too angry to easily man, but then again thats your theme so yeah.
I knew this game was going to suck just like the first one. I dont think its possible for developers to make a good game based on a movie.
ROFL !!! i laugh so hard when you play that sound bite with Zombie Don Cheadle !! Absolutely Awesome.
Great review joe,you mentioned every part of the game, 4 hours is unacceptable,like you said
Wow SEGA,your going downhill badly,no matter how good sonic colors was,still,i agree with this review, 8 missions for 60$? what the heck?
One time I saw a kid at my local game store who was begging his father to buy this game, DEAR LORD!
Nice..Keep it up Good work.JOe
OMG 60$ FFFFFF********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************CCCCCCCCKKKKK
I know movie licensed games suck because of the amount of time the developers are given, but this is ridicules. Added on to the fact that the business that was developing this game went out of buisness, you have a disaster on your hands. Who in the world thought that this game was actually worth full retail price of 60$?!
Just for shits and giggles, I chose to rent this game using a free rental pass. Bad game is bad, but I didn’t contribute money to it =)
for the large retrieve, but I’m real caring the new Zune, and desire this, as fortunate as the reviews else fill eff statute, leave you determine if it’s the rightish for you.
Sorry for the immense exercise, but I’m rattling enamored the new Zune, and this, as considerably as the excellent reviews whatsoever remaining fill have backhand, instrument improve you settle if it’s the moral for you.
Why not 1/10 if it sucked so bad?
I love this game
its not that bad i have buy this 2 times for a friend and he loves it to. 
I liked the shiny unicorn as an epic fail better .
Iron-ically enough, you gave Iron Man 2 a 2!
Damn, here in the netherlands full price is even higher, at usually 65 euros , which is nearly 85 dollars!!! and there’s no money refund, you only get the option to it trade for another crappy game within 1 day, yeah 1 friggin day.
Now let’s hope the ex-employees at this company don’t get hired somewhere else and keep feeding us these overpriced abominations
Forgot to add, the amount of stores that buy your games and sell pre-owned ones is very limited, I only know of 1, and their shops are badly distributed and you usually only fetch about 10 euros for them, even when its a brand new game sold at full price., if you buy a bad game you’re screwed.
you know joe, in australia, eb games have a 7 day gaurantee offer, if you hate a game, bring it back in 7 days for a full refund, NOT STORE CREDIT, MONEY YOU CAN TAKE AWAY!!!
FULL PRICE $60.00
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK! jajajaja
really? no one else noticed how he censored every time he said fuck until the end? guess he forgot to censor it but w/e his loss is my gain. ya know joe, u should stick to being censorless never understood why u would censor in the first place
awwwwwwwwwww
poor joe needs a hug
i bought my copy the day b4 i saw this review but my xbox is on the fritz so i avnt had a chance to play it
Great review Joe! Deffinatly better than the first,but still was horrible. O lol’d at 6:00. XD
Hello, also love the Shrek movies, great movie!
Wow, another terrible movie game. What a shocker.
Love Shrek movies, super animation.
I like Shrek, funny movies!
joe since you get these games from gamestop cant you buy it used like a day after its realese and then return it a week later just to save your money from a movie game
I would shoot my self if I made this game I mean what do they think “ohh hey guys since our last was a total failure lets make another game making almost no improvements god why didn’t I think of this before.”
They have to stop making video games for every movie that comes out…
great review Joe!
*Salutes Joe*
I salute you sir for taking your time, sacrificing both hard earned dollars and a slice of your soul in reviewing games like this. I know it must be hard, but you’re doing the world a favour! And goddamnit! We love you for it. Keep up the good fight!
I never bought the first Iron man game so thanks for telling me to never buy an Iron Man game. At least not a movie-”LICENED” one.
Also, Isn’t Chronicles of Riddick battle for dark athena a movie licened game that you gave an 8/10?
I know that in the world of movie tie-in games most suck dick, but there’s a few and i mean ”FEW” that are good.
hey …u know the first iron man SUCKS. why did u buy this shit?… why dont just rent it ? first iron man was really boring. U see it coming.
this is one of the best Review ever. you get sooo angry . i love it
Well, its a movie tie-in game what did you except?
I gotta say man this is one of your funniest reviews ever!
wow iron man 2 sucks more
I HATE F*KING 4 HOURS OF THAT GAME
THANK YOU SO MUCH
AND SPYRO DAWN OF THE DRAGON HAS MORE EPIC FAILLLLL
AND SO AS HALO WARS
IM GOING TO GET HALO REACH BECAUSE ITS AWESOME FOR ME
AND im sorry that you got so mad about iron man 2 game
It is kinda funny how Joey does look like tony stark =P
wow joe’s pissed. Maybe you should make a video outlined what it would take to make a decent movie-license game.
thank you for saving me 60$. i was just about to go out and buy a copy of iron man 2. but i really liked the first iron man game. i would goas far as to give it a 7 out of 10. seriously i would. so if i liked the first game do you think id like the second? the way you described it i dont think so. but do you think i would?
the iron man 2 has different gameplay on the wii. kind of a beat em up style.
i wanna see him try toy story 3 it actually looks good. plus the wii version has a different gameplay.
Joe, someones gotta pay and I will write that check as thanks for you stopping me. I was just about to walk out my door and rent it. Just tell me how you want it.
SHREK FOREVER AFTER http://tinyurl.com/ShrekForever-AfterFB is coming out soon wow what a perfect movie for a perfect day out with my frnds..i am not going to miss it !!!!
Hi cheers for an incisive post, I really found your blog by mistake while looking on Goole for something else closely related, in any event before i ramble on too much i would just like to say how much I enjoyed your post, I have bookmarked your site and also taken your RSS feed, Once Again thanks for the blog post keep up the great work.
Burn in hell you money grubbing bastards. Your retarded video game tie-ins are about as marketable as a plastic bag filled with used ketchup packets.
Heeej joe nice review.
but i have a question where can you buy that helmet haha lol.
please email me?
Greets Brandon From holland.
Joe I’m not religious but your our Jesus you review shitty games and good games so that stupid people will know what not to buy
THIRD! also, joe, the iron man get up? totally LAME! could have used more work. also, i agree, Gamestop is a horrible store. hate, hate, HATE THAT DAMM STORE! i just go to best buys or other stores. prices may be higher, but i get decent service. also, i would like you to stop reviewing movie tie-in games.
great review joe. i gotta say, this is the only site i bothered registering on out of everyone on tgwtg. i like a lot of them but havent felt compelled to sign up. keep making reviews make i really enjoy them a ton.
