X-Men 2: Wolverine's Revenge

X2: Wolverine's Revenge (released as X-Men 2: Wolverine's Revenge in Europe and Australia; originally known as X-Men: Wolverine's Revenge during E3 2002) is an action beat'em up video game based on Marvel Comics character Wolverine, a member of the mutant team X-Men, developed by British game developer GenePool Software and published by Activision for PlayStation 2, GameCube, and Xbox with the former developed by Warthog Games alongside GenePool and ported to Windows by LTI Gray Matter. It was released on April 15, 2003, to coincide with the release of the film X2, which itself is a sequel to the 2000 film X-Men. The Game Boy Advance version developed by Vicarious Visions was re-released on a Twin Pack cartridge and bundled with Spider-Man: Mysterio's Menace in 2005.[3]

In X2: Wolverine's Revenge, the player helps Wolverine fight his way past the heavily guarded areas of the Weapon X Facility to piece together fragmented clues to Wolverine's murky past and to save his life. Wolverine has 48 hours to find an antidote to the deadly Shiva Virus circulating in his bloodstream and the clues point to the Weapon X facility, the Canadian fortress where he had his skeletal structure fused with adamantium.

A significant feature has Mark Hamill providing the voice-over for Wolverine in game. While Hugh Jackman's likeness is on the cover and promotional material, the character model in game is based on the comic books. Patrick Stewart reprises his film role as Professor X in game.

The game received generally mixed reviews upon release. Critics praised the voice acting, especially of Hamill and Stewart, the intriguing plot, and unlockables, but criticized the slow combat, lack of mid-level checkpoints, and for being too hard and requiring too many retries.
