The game is really fun at first. It does start to wear thin after a while due to the repetitive nature of the game performing the same sets of moves over and over in combat. There are no really involving puzzles to help break up the action either and the enemy types are limited too. My only other main complaint lies in the boss fights that basically just require you to jump on their back and stab them repeatedly until they die. This is the most effective way to do damage to every single boss in the game and you really can't go toe to toe otherwise.
All that repetition and lack of creativity in the boss fights aside it's still a fun game and way more brutal than the movie in a lot of ways. I wish they let Wolverine do some of the stuff he does in the game in the recent movie. It would have made it much more visceral and animalistic like Wolverine is.
Overall the game makes for a fun rental. I read it takes 10-14 hours to complete. And then you have to unlock the Hard difficulty so it could take over 20 hours to get platinum. Right now I'm leaning towards not going for it due to repetition. I do have 12 more days until the next batch of games I want to play though so we'll see.
