I admit I am a fan of Deadpool, but just as a game I find it to be a lot of fun. It doesn't do anything revolutionary with its game play, but the game is still well made in its own right. Combat is a lot of fun and fluid, you can unlock around a dozen different kinds of weapons and upgrade them to suit your play style. Mechanically, the game works fine, though the game play is nothing special.
What IS special about the game is Deadpool himself. If you are not familiar with the character,this game will MAKE you a fan of the character. Though, a few things may fly over your head. At $30, I say go for it. The game is a LOT of fun, not just for its game play but for its humor and writing. I guarantee you've never played a game quite like this before. Just be sure to explore a bit and have some fun.
I don't really understand some of the lower review scores. I definitely think VGChartz's review is right on the money. The game has a few minor issues (such as the optional stealth mechanics you'll barely use being crap) and isn't revolutionary...but that doesn't make it a bad game.
