Though in this games defense, it has THE single best opening level of any game on this list. Still, the game is graphically underwhelming on all accounts, is a tad on the easy side and is also a boring slog to play through. Of the three, the PS2 version fairs best, as it suffers from neither awkward melee motion controls nor the PSP’s face button camera manipulation. Iron Man on the then current generation consoles took a beating from critics, but it’s leaps and bounds over the versions found on these three systems.
Without knowing that this is an Iron Man game, you also wouldn’t be able to tell from the poor in-game character model. Heavy Metal still suffers from a lot of the problems found on the PSOne game, including long and unfairly difficult levels. The passwords are much smaller and easy to write down, and the game plays better as well despite having only two buttons. The Game Boy version of Heavy Metal is in many ways better than its big brother on the PSOne, though the bar was not set very high. Worst yet, another version of the game arrived on a system that was exponentially under-powered, and somehow managed to turn out better.ĩ) IRON MAN/X-O MANOWAR IN HEAVY METAL (GAME BOY) The game also failed to utilize the memory card save feature, forcing players to write down insanely large passwords.
This was an early effort on Sony’s brand new at the time PlayStation that somehow looked and played worse than games being sold on the SNES. Unfortunately for the character, it also marks one of the low points in his video game carrier. Iron Man had been featured in games before the release of Heavy Metal, but this was the first time his name was in the marquee. While we wait for game companies to wise up and give us the Iron Man game we know we all deserve, let’s countdown the top ten Iron Man games.ġ0) IRON MAN/X-O MANOWAR IN HEAVY METAL (PSOne) ( FULL REVIEW) In games, he starred in a Game Boy Advance game and teamed up with…X-O Manowar. In the film world, the Iron Man series has grossed over a billion dollars in box-office sales, and the character was part of the ensemble film The Avengers. To say that the character of Iron Man has not achieved the level of success in the video game world as he has in Hollywood would be a hilarious under statement.
