I'm glad you liked the DS version Shigs. =) Hopefully the rest of the Thor games turn out good.

I bought the DS Version off of ebay after hearing how good it is. I also am getting a lend of Thor on 360. Will be interesting to see how they compare.

Wow, I don't believe it. A version of this game that doesnt suck?

As I said before, Sega should snap up Way Forward and put them to work on bringing back classic IPs in 2D. Streets of Rage, Comix Zone, VectorMan, Shinobi etc.

Sega have a lot of games that could still work really well in 2D and Way Forward seem to be... The way forward.

WayForward could do wonders with Streets of Rage.

Leme know if anyone wants to review this or not, cuz I could do it.

I'm on the fourth world now and yea....it IS getting real monotonous now. I guess it can't be helped. Fight some ogres, walk a few feet, fight some more, repeat. It gets boring after awhile.

Luckily, the bosses are worth the wait. They tend to take up both screens!! I fact, when they appear, Thor actually gets even smaller than he already is. It's almost overkill.

I wonder if the Nintendo DS game is going to be better than the movie? Everything I have seen off of the actual film looked pretty awful.

WayForward would do best with Wonder Boy/Monster World. The Shantae games are spiritual sequels in a lot of ways.

They have gone on record to say they do not like SEGA stuff though. Some of their comments, especially the Contra one pissed me off so much.

Yeah, i have heard nothing by positive comments outside my friends that complained about the whole notion of Thor as a super hero.

I'm sure it's awesome in that it is true to the source material...

That said I think the source material is an awful idea to begin with.

It's gotten an 80% critical rating over at RottenTomatoes too though, so sounds like it's going to be a good film for most.

It's probably awesome just because it's a good movie. What do you have against the basic idea of Thor anyway?

What Norse Mythology or Marvel Comics? Either way, I kindly disagree.

Rented the Wii version through GameFly.

Not half bad actually. Lots of different fighting moves and magic attacks and a good upgrade system. Flying levels to keep it from being too monotonous. Kotaku nailed it in that even the graphics look more appealing the the 360/PS3 versions due to the comic book motif.

It's not great, but loads better than Iron Man 2.
