    O jogo é excelente em questão de historia, a gameplay também é boa mas tem seus erros, por exemplo: na hora de vc trocar de elemento e meio difícil, pois é no dpad que troca e isso atrapalha um pouco na hora de trocar o elemento, mas o jogo e legal do início ao fim, e as conversas dos personagens durante a gameplay são ótimas, e o design dos personagens estão perfeitos, só não dei nota 10O jogo é excelente em questão de historia, a gameplay também é boa mas tem seus erros, por exemplo: na hora de vc trocar de elemento e meio difícil, pois é no dpad que troca e isso atrapalha um pouco na hora de trocar o elemento, mas o jogo e legal do início ao fim, e as conversas dos personagens durante a gameplay são ótimas, e o design dos personagens estão perfeitos, só não dei nota 10 porquê a troca de elementos é meio ruim, mas esse foi o único defeito que eu achei no jogo, minhas expectativas eram baixas mas quando eu joguei o jogo eu amei e zerei sem nem perceber, então joguem sem medo porque esse jogo é maravilhoso.… Expand

    Must-have game for Marvel fanboys. You are a lord although through commands you can make your companions launch attacks. perhaps it could have been improved by choosing a character, being able to switch between them or with specific missions. But if you liked the movies, the game sure did too.

    This game is fun from start to finish. It's so action-packed and the story is interesting enough to keep you going. I enjoy the use of music and voice acting. Its also great seeing he characters develop and become friends overtime. This was a great ride.

    Youll be going forward through these linear sections, dealing with obstacles in the way and uing the other guradians to progress such as groot making a bridge or drax tipping things over or breaking walls.. and then there will be a fight, enemies will swarm you and you use your abilities and command the other 4 guardians for them to do teir special moves, and youll be able to fill up a meter to huddle up for some extra damage and listen to some classic 80s tunes while you kick alien butt.. at first this is all really fun, but eventually it just becomes tiresome, combat is so repetitive and a slog to get though due to how spongy enemies are, it just never feels satisfying and was my least favorite part of the game.. I enjoyed the traversing and problem solving, dealing with waves of bullet sponges, not so much…
    That’s being said, marvels guardians of the galaxy is a crazy goofy adevnute, there are great action pieces here.. the world is fun to get around, the writing is hilarious at times, and I loved the incorporation of 80s music,
    The game does overstay its welcome for somone not really a fan of the IP, but this is still a great game to run through

    Pros:
    Great visuals and environments.
    Fantastic music choice. Great use of the license feels authentic to the source material. Voice acting is mostly great. Lengthy adventure that has a variety of different environments. Cons: Combat gets stale about halfway through the game. Enemies can become very ‘bullet spongey’. Increasing the damage to ‘very high’ does not fix this issue. As    Pros:
    Great visuals and environments.

    Cons:
    Combat gets stale about halfway through the game. Enemies can become very ‘bullet spongey’. Increasing the damage to ‘very high’ does not fix this issue. As a result, combat can feel old.
    Game lasts maybe one or two chapters too long.

    Guardians of the Galaxy is a much better game than Avengers. With that being said, it’s not a 10/10 game and does have some issues, mostly with combat becoming stale at about the halfway point and the enemies feeling more of a chore then an exciting challenge. If you’re a Marvel fan and want to play a game that captures the feeling of the source material, check it out. If you want an action game and are okay with the combat becoming a little stale halfway through it, check it out. It may not be the 10/10 game Marvel fans might’ve wanted but it’s not a bad game, not at all and it is enjoyable, and it makes up for the mistakes Avengers made. If their next game takes the constructive feedback about the combat getting a little too stale, then I can see their next game being a masterpiece.

    All and all this developer has learned from their mistakes and I personally did enjoy this game much more then I thought I would’ve.    … Expand

    This game encompasses everything enjoyable about the Guardians of the Galaxy movies. The presentation, production values, banter between the crew, and world building are all top-notch. Honestly, the banter approaches legendary status and sets the bar for party-based games going forward. Drax and Mantis are particular standouts.

Honestly, the banter approaches legendary status and sets the bar for party-based games going forward. Drax and Mantis are particular standouts.

    As for gameplay, I was sold when I found out you only control Peter and direct the other Guardians, rather than it being a co-op experience. Everyone has a unique move set and they are all useful. Outside of combat, there is platforming, minor exploration, and numerous action scenes reminiscent of the Uncharted series. Also, you will make choices that affect certain scenes. Early on, you sell a “monster” to a collector and what you choose drastically affects what happens.

    The game isn’t perfect though. The story gets a little too weird for my taste and it drags on towards the end. I also encountered small glitches that forced me to reload checkpoints. Nevertheless, if you have an affinity for the movies, playing this game is a no brainer.    … Expand

    Konačno jedan dobar superhero multiplatform naslov, posle duže vremena. Izuzetan i fluidan gameplay mehanizam upotpunjen sa odličnim scenarijom koji sadrži solidnu dozu kvalitetnog humora, po uzoru na filmske naslove iz istog serijala.

    Just play the game and it will be worth every second of your time when i first downloaded the game i was a bit skeptical coz the same publisher launched marvel avengers and we all know that game is not even good but man was i relieved after booting the game for the first time that this game is nothing like marvel avengers and it turned out to be a great game i liked everything about the game from story to upgrade system to combat and so on. And yes kudos to xbox game pass because if it was not on game pass i would never have played the game coz i was not willing to spend my money on the could be great/good game launched by the same publisher as marvel avengers. Just a minor spoiler though i did not like rocket complaining and disagreeing too much with peter it goes to a point where it becomes annoying.

    Tried this thanks to Gamepass and what a surprise! Really fun and engaging singleplayer adventure experience, love the dynamic between the characters and lots of good humour. The only less positive aspect is the combat that gets a bit repetitive by the end of the game! Besides that the game is perfect, definitely recommended.

    Even with a couple of technical shortcomings and the fact that the game needs a few patches to correct them, Eidos Montreal made a masterpiece with a lot of love and attention that will be remembered for all time. Marvel fans can finally breathe a sigh of relief and indulge in the new space adventures of Peter Quill’s gang.

    Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy is one of the best Marvel games ever released. It has a deep original story that becomes personal with every choice you make , a combat system that may start slow but holds some of the best moments of teamwork and explosive action, and amazing graphics and soundtrack. If you’re a Marvel fan, this is a game you’ll enjoy.

    Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy could’ve easily ended up being a lacklustre attempt at recreating what makes this group of oddballs so endearing to the Marvel community, but that’s not the case. The acting is top drawer, with a script in place that can make you laugh one minute and bring a tear to your eye the next.
