Customer Rating:      Summary: SuperMeh. Comment: For a IP with so much available backstory you would think that this would be a sandbox style game with the flair and fun of one of the Spiderman games. That incorrect. The grey muted palette, half wit story lines and laughable combo system turns this game into yet another lame movie tie in. Another buck to be made of kids and unknowing gamers.
Save yourself the money and rent or trade. This is not worth 60$. It is not worth the expenditure of energy to unwrap it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Cool Game,... Could be better Comment: Cool game, could be better,.. a lot like the others, XMen, Spiderman, and I am sure IRON MAN,.. Fly around, shoot and things. Not bad.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Pretty lame Comment: I bought this because it was on sale for $15-$20 or something back when it was listed at like $60 (man did I get screwed!) It's kinda fun to fly around and stuff for a little bit, but the fighting is pretty lame. The way the whole game was set up seemed pretty lame. I didn't play it for more than maybe an hour or two. I wonder if Gamestop would give me $1 for it on a trade, that would be a good deal. I'm not a fan of GTA and I've never played the Spider Man games, so maybe it's fun if you are a sandbox gamer looking for a cheap fix.
Customer Rating:      Summary: It's not as bad as the reviews would lead you to believe Comment: It's a decent game but rather repetitive. The flying is enjoyable but could be faster. A lot of the tasks are rather simplistic such as killing some aliens. Not too many of the missions are challenging. The 3 blimps being attacked by the dragons was hard until you figure it out then its pretty easy. No way would it have been worth $59 but for the price I paid at amazon ($9.99 at the time) it was definitely worth it. I've played much worse for the 360 and though this isn't a great game its a decent game and one kids would like and adults may enjoy unless repetition drives them insane (Assassin's Creed, anyone? lol).
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good gamerscore source! Comment: This is exactly what you would expect from a movie tie-in; weak story and choppy gameplay.The achievements are easy (you can pick up 650 easy) which I like.If you like superman or free-roam style game then you should like this game.I payed $10 which is good for this game but much beyond that is poor value.
Overall 7.0

Superman Returns was inspired by the hit film & tries to recreate the wonder ofbeing the legendary superhero. Explore the game environment not only horizontally but vertically as well: Revolutionary new flight mechanics give you full command of your aerial maneuvers. Use them to explore a Metropolis that is not only expansive (80 sq. miles and more than 7,000 buildings), but also changes dynamically based on how you play. Experience what it's like to be Superman, like never before! Protect Metropolis from seven of the most notorious villains in the world, like Metallo and Bizarro Conquer more than 40 monstrous missions only Superman can overcome
