Finally, a useful strategy guide. 4 out of 5 stars.
17 of 18 people found this review helpful.

I had already finished X-Men Legends before I got this guide; after all, it's a pretty short game. But I can definitely say it's more fun with the guide in hand.

By and large this guide is free of the bad writing and false information that had plagued so many BradyGames guides I've used before. There's a large number of charts, lists, analytical databases and other devices which make the unlockables in the game much easier to find. And while the maps aren't exactly easy to read, the layout of the levels in X-Men Legends is so cluttered that I think the authors and layout artists did a good job of translating the maps into useful, legible form. The combat strategies they suggest almost always work, and they summarize each level succinctly so that you know what you're about to get into.

Why only four stars? The layout of the book can sometimes be awkward -- too much eye candy sacrificing legibility and flow. For example, it's often not clear on a page whether you're supposed to read the upper-right map first or the lower-left one. The written passages are often up to half a page behind the maps and sidebars, making for confusing navigation. And they did have omissions on the maps, leaving out one or two items, but not enough to spoil everything.

All in all, a very good guide with minor flaws.

    Uncanny. 4 out of 5 stars.
    8 of 8 people found this review helpful.

    As usual, I bought this book after I completed X-Men Legends II, and actually used it to play through the game another time. To a certain extent, I'd say that it's a pretty handy guide for anyone who needs a step-by-step walkthrough of the game, even though it does have its fair share of errors and omissions.

    The maps in this book, like those in the first book, are particularly useful. Numbers are allocated on the maps, and a table is always found beside a map to identify what you can find at these locations, be it a disc, a sketch book, a comic, a homing beacon or even a boss fight. This essentially makes the text redundant, as a player can simply look at the map, check the incidents from the table, and proceed without having to read a whole lot of text to proceed.

    The characters building section of the book is also adequately written to provide the reader a general idea of how to level up your favorite characters. Players who're interested in maximising the potential of these characters should find the tips here pretty useful.

    The book also has a mandatory "trivia game" section that has with all the answers for the Q&A mini-game found in every act of the game. There're a couple of errors here though, so you may be frustrated by the unintentional sabotage that causes you not to get 100% correct on the questions.

    All in all, this is an above average guide that is nicely structured, well presented and informative. Recommended if you really need the assistance.

    I could have beaten this game without a guide to help me. However, I would have gotten my first social security check before hand. This guide defenitely a must have for anyone that wants to beat this game during this century.

    help. 5 out of 5 stars.

    i dont actually have this book but can you tell me how to beat both the sabertooths, juggernaut, and lady deathstrike? i know there is a kind soul out there who will.

    i know the first time you beat sabertooth he supposedly drops a card? where does he drop it? how do i get it?

    Excellent Strategy Guide; I wish I bought it before I was one level away from finishing! 5 out of 5 stars.

    Anyone who has played Wolverine's Revenge knows this is no easy game but it's a fun one. It takes cunning, it takes strategy and it takes patience! It took me months and I had finally reached the last part of the very last level with Lady Deathstrike but couldn't figure it out! Nothing seemed to work.

    Then I stumbled across a cheat code that allowed me to become invunerable and I finished the game. But somehow I felt deflated because I didn't "quite" beat her on my own terms so I purchased this GREAT guide! I am amazed at all it contains. It will tell you where every Cerebro file is, the best way to earn the most dog tags, the best way to take out the bosses, and best of all, how to stay alive in even the worst of situations!

    Wolverine's Revenge is definitely a hard game but it is so worth it when you do it right! This guide gives you so much for a great price. It's a thoroughly enjoyable companion to a great game, which gets even better when you have this printed "preview of coming attractions." Just remember that even with this wonderful guide, you get out of the game what you put into it. I found that to get the most out of the guide (and the game) was to be very familiar with each section of the guide and take seriously everything it has to say. It will help you get what you need to win the game without having to test Wolverine's healing factor every five seconds! So, Claws out, head down and full steam ahead.
