Still, it’s a solid rental and a good way to spend some time having a bit of fun. If you really want to kick ass as the Fantastic 4, go play Marvel: Ultimate Alliance.
-
I am not going to lie to you, I got so bored playing this game by myself that I didn’t finish it.
-
The Wii controls add a thin veil to make you feel like you're not just mashing A the entire time, but you are. This game is literally you punching as your favorite member of the Fantastic Four for hours on end.
-
The game follows a simple beat 'em up formula that will keep you entertained for awhile, but it lacks so much of the depth and creativity that we expect from the comics and movies.
-
If you would like to play as the Fantastic Four but in a good game, play Marvel's Ultimate Alliance.
-
An abysmal experience.

Play MagazineSome decent ideas do fight there way to the surface. [Aug 2007, p.68]
-
Really, with the Wii controller and nunchuck the game becomes even more tedious.

Official Nintendo Magazine UKIt's what a bag of roast beef crisps is to a Sunday roast with all the trimmings. [Sept 2007, p.90]
-
This is a simply another lame attempt to attract young fans and unknowing parents to buy something based on the license. Rise of the Silver Surfer has all the gameplay value of a bad Streets of Rage clone.
-
Nintendo GamerTiresome nonsense. [Sept 2007, p.40]
-
A poorly put-together game that suffers from incompetent AI, terrible graphics, mistimed sound effects, repetitive level design, and button-smashing combat.
-
It borrows so heavily from the format of "Marvel Ultimate Alliance" that you’ll likely be hard pressed to find anyone who won’t tell you to simply play that game instead. Considering all the bad movie games we’ve seen in the past year, saying that this is one of the worst should really mean something.
-
Every aspect of the game is categorically bad; the story is tough to follow, the graphics are lousy, and the gameplay is so contrived and repetitive that it's unlikely anyone will garner much enjoyment from the game, no matter how low their standards are for being entertained.
-
Really, The Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer is a mess and a frighteningly terrible video game.
-
There is a special level of Video Game Hell reserved for ROTSS. Simply by existing, it has made the world that much less fun. It's the videogame equivalent of watching your dog being run over, with worse production values.

OliverC.Jul 11, 2007Nice effects, but the game is really boring. Enemies come, you kill them, you move on until more enemies come.

GeoffreyC.Jun 18, 2007Passable graphics, strong effects, clunky interface. Will keep the young ones happy, group attacks are fun.
