Closing Comments
Thanks to the premise of the game, Legendary could've been an interesting adventure with monsters, powers and the apocalypse as a backdrop. Unfortunately, the gameplay comes across as messy and incomplete, the arrangement of hazards and threats from monsters is ineffective at best and boring at worst. Plot points and development is practically nonexistent, and the standard shooter mechanics just fall flat. If you need a shooter, look elsewhere, because Legendary isn't close to what its namesake claims to be.

IGN Ratings for Legendary (PS3)

Rating	Description
out of 10	click here for ratings guide
3.0	Presentation Monsters, secret societies and the end of the world? Could've been great, except the story is bland, goes nowhere significant and is obviously focused more on a sequel that the game itself.
5.5	Graphics Good particle effects and monster character models are hampered by slowdown, hitches and texture issues. What's the install for if you have load issues and these problems?
6.0	Sound Passable voice acting is coupled with okay sound effects and a guitar heavy soundtrack that betrays action by swelling before attacks occur onscreen.
2.5	Gameplay The mix of creatures don't make any sense during the game, your powers don't go nearly as far as you'd hope, and the weapons, while effective, aren't handled realistically.
2.0	Lasting Appeal There's one multiplayer mode, but no one's playing this game online. If you beat the game, you're not going to return to this again.
2.3 Terrible	OVERALL (out of 10 / not an average)
