Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy

After the Avengers game Square Enix had to pull one out out the bag with this one to save face. Well I personally think this is a corker of a game. Been a fan of both the comics and the moves is was so happy to see all the references to characters an event that have taken place, the history is based more of the comics and dose a good job of giving info of the individual guardians back stories with collectibles to fine during the storie. The designs of the characters of familiar different and don't look quite so jarring as the faces in avengers which in my opinion still need changing.

Not only one of the best Marvel games in awhile but also just a damn good game in general. Controlling your teammates is a little annoying but I don't know how they could of done it any better. Definitely worth picking up and hopefully DLC is coming soon.

I am really pleasantly surprised with this game.

When I first saw the trailer, I, like many people, was not convinced. I think it was the scars from Square Enix's frankly awful Avengers game that made me less than excited for this release. But since seeing some more gameplay on IGN I thought I'd give it a shot... and I'm glad I did. This is a really fun, straight from a comic kind of game. And also.... really quite funny and well written. The colours and themes are beautiful and the game has a lot of heart. Gameplay can be a bit lacking in places (you can only play as Star Lord for starters), but overall significantly better than I thought it would be. We should encourage devs to make single player story games more often, so please do buy this one- you won't regret it.

I was skeptical at first (like I think most people were) because of the disaster caused by the Avengers game. I didn't think Avengers was entirely garbage but once you did the story lines there really isn't anything worth doing. This game however is completely different a huge huge improvement. For starters there are no microtransaction. It's single player only and you can only play Star Lord. I'm only about 3 hours into the game so far but the story is great, it's funny, gameplay is pretty different from anything I've played but still fun once you figure it out. I'd say the biggest flaw is not being able to play any of the other Guardians but even that isn't bad. It would be nice but not a huge deal.

Overall pretty solid game. I would definitely recommend it and say not to be worried after everything Avengers game related.

As far as a story goes, this competes with if not surpasses James Gunn's movies. Voice acting is stellar and the facial animations are nearly flawless. The characters are thoroughly sympathic.

Excellent game. I really hope it does well to encourage more games of this quality.
