    Enjoyable pick-up-and-go fighting portable game. Would be nice if more characters were unlocked from the get-go. Pick up a used copy at a discounted price.

    Unfortunately, this mode gets mind-numbinglly repetitive, and gameplay is still awful. [Nov 2005, p.98]

    The game's still shallow, but on the PSP, ease of play becomes a virtue. It's still not fantastic, but it's a passable novelty with a great license. [Nov 2005, p.121]
  3. There are a number of frustrating annoyances that hold the game back from its lofty attempts at fighting game superstardom, but when the dust settles the gorgeous visuals and responsive, pick-up-and-play fighting engine come together to form an enjoyable Super Hero smash-fest that is worth a good rent if nothing else.
