    Superman Returns: The Demo Has Landed

    by Nelson Rodriguez

    Fly over to the Xbox Live Marketplace to download the nearly 1GB large demo for Superman Returns: The Game.  The trial lets you roam around a few islands near metropolis, and get a feel for being super.

    The demo partially gave me the sense of being in Second Life.  It is an open world, with somewhat dull graphics.  It also seems closely modeled on games like Ultimate Spiderman.  Pretending to be a superhero has been a dream since childhood, but Ultimate Spiderman on the Xbox pulls off the feeling much more effectively.  The demo missions are repetitive and the mechanics are not as smooth as what Treyarch accomplished with Spidey's webslinging.

    A demo can't tell you the whole story of a game, but I'm still wary.  Download the demo and decide for yourself.

    The demo is available on the Xbox Live Marketplace for Xbox Live Gold members*

    Name: Superman Returns Demo
    Price: Free
    Available in: All Xbox Live Regions
    Dash Details: Inspired by the Warner Bros. Pictures film and 60+ years of DC Comics, Superman Returns: The Videogame is the ultimate open-world adventure. Can you master your superpowers to protect Metropolis from an onslaught of classic villains?

    I hated the demo, I am actually mourning the time I lost downloading and playing the demo.

    yeah, "Pimp My Ride" looks terrible. The only other Superman game that I have ever enjoyed was "The Death and Return of Superman" which was on the Genesis and the Super Nintendo.

    most games made on movies suck.. exeption to spiderman n xmen really.. there hasnt been 1 good superman game.. ever. u would think with the limitless capabilities of this generation of gaming, that we would be immune to this type of trash. speaking of which, the "pimp my ride" game looks just as bad.

    check out the screen shots mate it looks like this is as good as it gets needless to say its a crapfest .if EA release this i will give it a try and if its as bad as the demo i will make sure that i tell every one i can how bad this game is and how little EA think of the public although i think the demo may have beat me to the punch. in the mean time i would change my super hero preferences if i was you. i would try spider man or maybe wonder woman(only kidding mate).

    im with tenbob. i think the graphix were by far substandard, n i did not like the gameplay. It looked and felt like GTA1, but with a flying mechanizm. This game is trash, what a dissapointment. From the initial reviews, it had such potential. had this been a ps2 or even an xbox game, it might of passed, but this is next gen, and better is expected. all the releases we just had this last week, and games comming up in the next week.. cod3,GoW,NFS,DOAX2,VivaPiniata... this superman does not belong in that pack.

    No, I don't either. I do think that where this game lacks in graphics, it makes up for it in gameplay. Also, this is just the demo, I would hope that the final retail version looks a lot better and plays more crisp.

    first of all i said "like" not the "same" as the n64. the point that i was making is that this game at the moment looks substandard and seems to feel that way as well. i own a xbox360 which for give me if i am wrong but "the 360 is a next gen console" and as such i expect my games to look as good as gears or cod2/3 or pgr3 or any of the other cool next gen games out there and i expect them to play like a next gen games as well. i do not like my games to and feel like they could been done better on the last gen or the one before that, how about you?.

    I disagree. I am a huge Superman fan. I have played every Superman game out there. This by far is the best looking/feeling Superman game out there. The demo plays and looks nothing like the N64 version.

    if the game is of the same standard as the demo then Ea please listen to me when i say "don't ever release this game". it looks like the superman game that was released on the n64 years ago and even then it look crappy although the n64 one played better. how can EA be punting crap like this to the public when they were slaged of gears of wars so much ?.
