I'm Deadpool, and if you don't know who I am, you're dead to me, just like all the baddies I shot today. Hooray! If you have heard of me it's probably because of my movie that came out back in February, but I'm not here to talk about movie. I'm here to talk about my game, y'know, the one High Moon Studios made for me back in 2013. Hold onto your butts High Moon, because I'm about to review this game to make sure you guys didn't suck >:-D *gun cocks*
I think it's safe to say that the story is pretty straightforward. It starts out just like any other day: I'm chillin' in my crib, my X-Buddies start calling to tell me how much they love me, but then, Peter from High Moon tells me that the game ain't happenin, so I do the only sensible thing: I blow up a nearby building! This is enough to get Peter's attention, and he starts making my game! Huzzah!!! Unfortunately, I've gotta memorize a script, but luckily for me, I have perfect photographic memory, so I memorized the entire thing in five seconds! (Nah, I'm kidding, I ad-libbed for the whole game.) Turns out, I didn't even need to read the script, because I figured out the entire plot pretty quickly: Mr. Sinister is the bad guy, he's doing bad things, so I kill him to death! (After I kill two of his clones first #woopsiedaisy).
The presentation is definitely the strongest aspect of this game, k'now why? Because I'm presenting it! This game captures my personality and all my good sides perfectly! In fact, the very first level is just me screwin' around in my house. If you make me go to the bathroom, I gotta make my own censored bar, and I obviously need a pretty big one to cover my big one. If you make me go to the fridge, I can start chuggin' down beers, but if I drink to much, I say "Enough with the damn beer! My healing factor won't let me get drunk anyway." This is my favorite gag: if you make me grab a book from the bookshelf, I pick up the entire shelf and say "What is this cheap prop!?" This game is sprinkled like a doughnut with little moments like that, including a part where I can slap Wolverine over and over, a part where I tweet about stabbing Mr. Sinister in the head, and a part where flirt with the hottest babe imaginable: Death! Although, the WORST part was when Cable was talking on and on and on about destiny and doing the right thing, and it was SOOO BOOORING! Obviously, I shot myself in the head, which knocked me out for long enough so I didn't have to hear the rest of that speech. If you ever pull anything like that again High Moon, it'll be YOU that gets shot in the head!
The game play is kind of repetitive, but who cares? You get to watch me slice, stab, shoot, and smash my way through hordes of bad dudes! What more could you want in life? Fear not, because if on the off chance you want more, you can buy all kinds of different weapons. I start out with dual katanas and dual pistols, but you can buy me dual shotguns, grenades, dual tiny swords (so cute!), dual uzis, flashbang grenades, dual hammers (Deadpool smash!), land mines, dual laser pistols, and bear traps! Happy birthday to me!!!
Overall, I'll give this game a 6/10: okay, but not great. While the presentation is stellar and perfectly represents my personality, the game play and graphics are kinda poopy at times. The graphics make this game look like it's on a PS2, and the game play is rock hard on some parts! I died waaaaaaaaay too many times on the final boss, and I'm Deadpool! I can't die!!
Nah, who am I kidding? This game's got me in it! I give it a 10/10!
