Justice League Heroes - The Flash 04-25-11 09:39 AM

Just...Woefully Sad
Justice League-The Flash is what happens when marketing reps take a perfectly good iconic and licensed properties, such as The Flash and Justice League, and decide to make a video game for a quick buck. The game is a complete disappointment.
The game opens in almost a comic book format, wherein Flash is buzzing his JLA allies about a robot invasion in his native Keystone City. The attack is world wide, so Flash is on his own to handle Keystone City. Despite the apparent global invasion, Superman, Wonder Woman, and Martian Manhunter are able to duck in and help Flash out. This is good because the Flash needs a lot of help!
Flash's JLA allies are summoned through the "S" or "right" button and produce area of effect attacks against all creatures on the board. As I said, this is good, because Flash needs the help! The Scarlet Speedster is reduced to a jab ("X" button) attack and this attack only varies when "X" is pressed with "Z" to provide a high-kick attack. The "Z" button alone doesn't seem to do anything!
"Flash" is a button-smasher, sideways scrawling game, somewhat like the ol' "Streets of Rage" video game. The difference between the two is that with "Flash," you're basically smashing one button--your jab attack and about five minutes into the game, you're probably doing this with your forehead in complete frustration. Secondly, "Streets of Rage" is far more entertaining.
"Flash" begins in Keystone City fighting human thugs, who have apparently allied with the robots. No explanation is given and odder still is the appearence of a gorilla. Initially, I thought this might have been a mini-boss: Gorilla Grodd perhaps? Nope--just a random mammal who also allied with the robots.
The biggest complaint with "Flash" is the lack of "super-hero-ness." Honestly, this could have been "Justice League Heroes--Alfred Pennyworth!" Batman's butler would have as much "super powers" as the Flash. The "A" or "left button" is pr... Read the rest of this Review
