Bought last night at 1 am, gonna play today. Standards pros/cons review format to follow.

09-24-2005, 06:30 PM
The last was one of my all time fav.s so please tell me if it half as good or better (leaning towards better) so I can go out and get ti or not.
I wanna get the first one.
Still haven't played it yet. They said it's like Gauntlet. :?:
Destor
09-24-2005, 08:22 PM
do you like the X-men g?
The only X-Men game I liked was the 4 player old school arcade one. :love:
Also, when saying my name, capitalization is a must. GOT IT PUNK.
:(
Destor
09-24-2005, 08:28 PM
Suck it, DICK! Now G, (happy) if you like anything X-men related BUY THIS! Its great, the story walks the lines of the comic books but takes it in a fresh direction and the game play is immersing. Solid title.
Funky Fly
09-24-2005, 11:59 PM
Yeah, it's like Gauntlet avec X-Men, only better.
Yeah, it's like Gauntlet avec X-Men, only better.
Pro's and Cons.
AlphaBean

Cons: Graphics still shit.
They still have like, really gay continuity of dialogue. You'll be Magneto and he'll be talking to professor X about WHY Magneto is working with the X Men. And whenever you want to learn something new, you have to go through all this shit you already knew. And it's all hilarious things like "Who are the Brotherhood?" "What's an X Man?" "Are you an X Man?" :nono:
Really, it's not about pros and cons... it's some mindless fun and once again, all I'm doing is maxing out Cyclops's beam so that it destroys everything, and the game is easy as shit. But yeah, it's not the deepest or best game, but it's definitely a keeper. The real test comes in replayability. The first one was pathetic in that regard. Like they basically destroyed the game if you beat it. Huge waste of money.

The first game was great and so far, the second one is, too. Granted I've only had it for two days and my opportunities to play it have been rare, but I'm loving it so far. And I just love the "roster" updates they made in this game.
Is the first one $20 yet? If so I might have to pick it up.
KingofOldSchool
09-25-2005, 02:43 PM
Yeah, I got it at work a few months back right when it hit $19.99.
Funky Fly
09-25-2005, 07:26 PM
Yeah, this game is pretty good.
PROS:
- More characters than the last game. That's always good. What's even better is that there is a bigger variety of powers and abilities amongst the roster this time. Also, Magneto and Juggernaut. :love:
- More powers per character. Last time, everyone had 2 attack powers, a super move, 2 or 3 passive shits and a status booster and that's it. This time everyone has a crapload of moves, passive upgrades and 2 supermoves. Some of them can even create helper minions.
- Better use of X-traction points. Now you can travel between any points you have visited. Really good for if you miss any of the shitloads of hidden stuff they put in this game. Also, the blink portal/hub system is kinda cool. It's not like the X-Men get to go straight home after every mission in the comics, so why not in the game too?
- The item system is much improved. Last game, finding useful regular items was practcally impossible. I think I got like 3 nanofiber armor thingies the entire game. Pretty useless, IMO. Now drops are more frequent and supposedly randomized. The rare itens are no longer "super" versions of the regular stuff, but are now more like Diablo II in their naming conventions and functions. Like you can get Astonishing Bands of Health, which are arm bands that add electric damage and give an HP bonus. There are also character specific items (Hammer of Rogue, Waistband of Juggernaut,) and unique items like in the last game.
- Flying characters can float for more than 3 seconds now. Before, you had to max out their flying stat or they'd use EP so fast that they could be in the air for a second. You still can't use powers in the air but, oh well.
- Resistances to damage types are more obvious now. They actually show you what you are resistant to in the team management menu.
- Environments look better than the last game. Yup.
- You have more freedom to complete objectives. Yeah, after the main mission is done, you get an optional submission that offers more experience and levelling up.
- The map is more useful, buy making visited areas white and unknown areas red.
CONS:
- As Alphabean said, the character graphics are still kinda bland. Slightly improved, but bland. On the plus side, you get costume options at the X-traction points. I'm guessing more are unlocked after you beat the game (like in the first one), since you only get one alternate costume (Iceman has none, though).
- The AI got dumber. Enemies don't run away or open doors and bumrush you as much as they did last game. Also, your partners are slow responding to commands too. If someone is getting overwhelmed and I call for a temporary retreat, they don't always follow me, so I have to go in and save their stupid ass. Also, if I tell them to attack a particular target, they delay, which results in...
- Combos are harder to execute. That split second delay throws off the team's timing, and keeps me from reaping in that extra experience from the leadership stats. Also, the voice that yells "combo!" when you do it is annoying. Speaking of annoying voices, Grizzly and Sabretooth. :nono:
More to come, I guess.
AlphaBean
09-25-2005, 08:58 PM
The secret missions unlocked via "homing beacons" I never used the first one. Now after (spoiler), I can't go back and use the first one :'(
Also, my AI characters don't follow me when I jump up onto ledges.
Also... can you carry people with flight? I can't seem to get Rogue to pick anyone up this time around. :(
Gonna go get the first one tomorrow sonnnnnnnnnnn.
AlphaBean
09-27-2005, 05:01 AM
PS: Enemies do not spawn, therefore you cannot "level up" the shit out of your players, until you start using the danger room. Before, the enemies just kept coming. Now, they're finite. :(

Other than in a couple of spots, they were pretty finite in the last game too.
AlphaBean
09-27-2005, 07:08 AM
You sure? I think I remember, like, on the boat where they never stop coming, and every time you go back through a place on a re-play, more dudes show up. Like, it gets fucking tedious when you have to change boards just to stash some gear, then come back to pick it up and it's like walking alone in a cave for 10 minutes, looking for shit. Very boring.
Though LOL I did that in one of the missions... one particular scene had like 10 different pieces of gear that I had to leave behind. Was wicked. So I had to return to scour the place, but it was worthi t.
Destor
09-27-2005, 07:35 AM
I dont remember many spawning points. I remember killing off all the enemies and going.... FUCK!, their all dead.
AlphaBean
09-27-2005, 07:37 AM
Yeah? Could have sworn that the astral plane had some monsters spawning...
Dunno, maybe I'm just remembering the danger room missions, and I haven't unlocked enough yet to really start pimping everyone out.
Destor
09-27-2005, 07:39 AM
Yeah, in the Astral plain they would spawn in front of you until you had killed enough of them, and then they would stop coming.
AlphaBean
09-27-2005, 07:53 AM
I'd like to face a lot more though, that's all.
Destor
09-27-2005, 08:00 AM
More is better.
More=more XP and that=happy.
Funky Fly
09-27-2005, 11:30 AM
Yeah, in the Astral plain they would spawn in front of you until you had killed enough of them, and then they would stop coming.
Yeah, there is one point in the Astral Plane that is a definite infinite re-spawn area. At least until you hit a switch, then they stop coming.

Can you be Magneto right off the bat in this game?
Funky Fly
09-27-2005, 08:35 PM
Can you be Magneto right off the bat in this game?
The initial team is Magneto, Storm, Cyclops and Wolverine. :cool:
Funky Fly
09-27-2005, 08:36 PM
Also, Sunfire is quite badass. And Colossus actually has defence this time around. Last game he was by far the strongest melee character, but had absolutely no defence.
Destor
09-27-2005, 08:38 PM
I'm guessing Juggernaut will get the lack of defense this time around.
Funky Fly
09-27-2005, 08:43 PM
I'm guessing Juggernaut will get the lack of defense this time around.
Yup. He gets some cool boosts, but that's it.
AlphaBean
09-27-2005, 11:54 PM
Just like before, Cyclops is the only character you need. Optic Beam and Mutant Master maxed out = pretty much unstoppable.
loopydate
09-28-2005, 12:01 AM
I'm the same way with Wolverine. Max out Regeneration and his basic claw attack, and I just tear through drones like Kleenex at a snot party.
Destor
09-28-2005, 12:04 AM
I side with the both of ya, use Wolverine and Cyclops as a tag team. No one is gonna stop ya.
Destor
09-28-2005, 12:05 AM
Is Magama in this one? She was a bad mother fucker in the last.
McDoogle
09-28-2005, 10:18 AM
And Colossus actually has defence this time around. Last game he was by far the strongest melee character, but had absolutely no defence.
:love: FINALLY
Funky Fly
09-28-2005, 07:13 PM
:love: FINALLY
lol
And he has a straight punch for knockback and an uppercut for maximum damage/pop up.
McDoogle
09-28-2005, 08:42 PM
Colossus is by far the greatest character of the game.
Funky Fly
09-30-2005, 06:32 AM
WOW, towards the end of Act 2, the drops go from being mostly shit to mostly amazing.
McDoogle
09-30-2005, 03:01 PM
so this game is worth purchasing?
Funky Fly
09-30-2005, 03:06 PM
Yeah, if you like the first one, you'll like this one.
AlphaBean
10-01-2005, 01:31 AM
I don't know what to do. I have so many items I can't possibly sell them all or distribute or stash them. I don't know what to do. :(
Anyway, I hate the auto-equip, it always takes away Cyclops' rare visor and replaces it with something stupid.
Also, I HATE Holocaust in this. He's nothing. And what's worse is that he has a normal dude's voice. Nothing at all intimidating. Then, nobody has a spooky voice. Not Apoc, not Sinister, not Holocaust. And Holocaust DOES NOT HAVE A MOUTH. In the comics, he just speaks psionically. God damn it. I had such high expectations.
It would be awesome if in the 3rd, you can be villains, or have the AoA storyline.
BUT FOR A PRO since I give nothing but cons... if you go back to a really old level, you can do it all over again -- respawning and all. Schweet.
Loose Cannon
10-05-2005, 11:32 AM
is this game like an RPG like Final Fantasy or is it more like that game "Gaunlet Legends" for N64. I love that style so much better.
loopydate
10-05-2005, 12:10 PM
More like Gauntlet. You level up and equip things, but you're basically running around and beating the crap out of soldiers and monsters and mutants in real-time.
Loose Cannon
10-05-2005, 12:12 PM
oh ok. That's what I like. I hate where you are just standing there choosing options like FF. I will rent this game over the weekend probably.

WTF? Buy the first one first. I say buy, because assuming you have a 3 day long rental, you'd have to play nonstop for several hours to finish it.

I'm in New York now and it CONSTANTLY freezes. Christ. :( I am looking forward to Iron Man and Deadpool, but apparently I can't get past fucking NYC.

There's like 3 of them. I beat the first one, but after that all the enemies are spread out and shit, so it's hard. It's so much harder to pull off combos now, those missions are practically impossible without at least one other human player so you can effectively direct traffic and pull combos.
Also :wtf: @ the freezing. Never happens to me... except in Day of Reckoning 2. :mad:
Loose Cannon
10-06-2005, 06:34 PM
I will rent it Funky Fly and not only am I not going to beat it, but I will just stare at the box the entire 3 days. How do you like that?
McDoogle
10-06-2005, 06:35 PM
How long is the game Funky (hour wise)?
AlphaBean
10-06-2005, 09:08 PM
If you're playing it to beat it I'm sure you could get through it in a weekend.
Though if you want to be thorough and level everyone up equally and whatnot, it might take a little bit longer. Plus the replay value = Prof X, Iron Man, Deadpool. :drool:
McDoogle
10-06-2005, 09:50 PM
Wait wait wait...so if you beat the game and unlock all the characters you can replay the game with the unlocked characters and leveled up people?
AlphaBean
10-06-2005, 10:22 PM
All of the characters are playable from the start, except for the three secret players, whom you unlock upon completing the game.
As for the leveled-up characters... I think you can replay with them? I'm not sure. I haven't been able to complete yet. :( Keeps freezing. Breaks muh heart.
Funky Fly
10-07-2005, 01:33 AM
You get Deadpool by beating it. As for Iron Man, I reckon unlocking him has something to do with all the fucking homing beacons and pieces of his armor I keep finding. As for Xavier, I heard he's unlocked by beating all the Danger Room discs (meaning I won't unlock him till I play this with other people so I can finish those damn teamwork discs).
AlphaBean
10-08-2005, 01:04 AM
Right... and you won't get Iron Man or ProX until way late, so basically "end of the game."
ROFL so I finally did get past the NYC thing... I just switched into Magneto and zoomed through it. For some reason it's just South NYC that freezes on me. :'(
Funky Fly
10-09-2005, 12:17 AM
I am at act 5. I should probably finish this shit.
AlphaBean
10-09-2005, 01:24 AM
LOL I unlocked Iron Man, but en route all of my players magically disappeared in the final secret area :?: It was hilarious. But anyway, so I played my game and my bro came over with his memory card... put it in the ps2, loaded up his game and lo and behold, Iron Man is accessible for him, even though he hadn't even beaten Sugar Man yet? :?:
It's cool though.
ROFL though, at the typos in the dialogue. Horrible, like they hired HS students to write it.
AlphaBean
10-09-2005, 01:34 AM
Another ROFL moment... after getting Colossus up to about 30ish, and doing his Challenge, he's now 1000 attack 1000 defense, with a HP regen to boot. :wtf:
He's unstoppable. :love:
Funky Fly
10-09-2005, 05:26 PM
I know, it's ridiculous. All my guys are like 45 or better and he's 29 and owns them all.
AlphaBean
10-09-2005, 10:33 PM
45 or better? :wtf:
My best is Cyclops at 42... because he's always in, and due to Flawless Tactics :love: 200% XP.
Anyway, beat it... the final battle is pretty fucking sweet, but hectic and confusing. The aftermath is kinda... :nono: and when you get back, it's hilarious... you go to ProfX and he says "Hello again," then you ask about Angel and Beast. WTF. No "Good job saving the world" or anything. Same shit.
Could you imagine how easily they could add to the replay value of the game, if they were to (like Pokemon) just add stronger and stronger baddies to fight throughout the game? Like, Xavier says "Good job with Apocalypse, but our job is never done! There are splinter cells and remnants of Apocalypse's army still out there, and it's your job to finish them off while collecting any items you have missed!"
:nono:
Funky Fly
10-09-2005, 10:57 PM
Yeah, I was doing the danger room missions, plus having Magneto and Cyclops = double leadership.
AlphaBean
10-10-2005, 01:27 AM
Danger Room IMO sucks for all that; which one would you recommend?
Funky Fly
10-10-2005, 02:21 AM
I just did all the onesI could actually complete. Those fucking teamwork ones are killing me. Also, since I haven't completed them, I can just keep doing runs killing slews of enemies.
AlphaBean
10-10-2005, 03:00 AM
LOL the "keep Havok alive" one is hell, too. The guards with the huge axes, they are vicious. One hit kills him. You need to corrale him into a corner, but he's too stupid to do that. :mad:
But yea I gotta do that. In 1 I always leveled the shit out of people in the danger room, but now... :$
LOL Iron Man's turret is so awesome. Just drop one of those and fly around for a while.
And Deadpool, :love: He has regen and teleport and a sword attack and guns. The guns are so hot, and the sword attack is just as vicious as Nightcrawler's...! Plus he's kind of funny.
Anyway... yeah as the game progressed later and later, I came to realize how much better it is than the first. Not as many complaints. The horrible lapses in continuity and logic can be accepted, since all in all it was a very valiant attempt at a plot. :love:
But my idea for a replay system (which would have been SO EASY to program), would have made it even better.

Destor
10-10-2005, 03:42 PM
Just got Prof X, here is my tip for the teamwork missions:
I had to man two controllers at once, but it still wasn't that difficult. Get two people with a radial attacks (I used Ice Man & Jean Grey) stand them side by side and push their respective mutant attack at the same time, Its easier than it sounds but extremely gay.
Oh well, got all the characters though. I'm fixing to go though it on hard. :D
McDoogle
10-10-2005, 04:39 PM
Once you finish the game can you replay it with all your leveled up characters and with the secret characters?
Destor
10-10-2005, 04:46 PM
yes.
AlphaBean
10-10-2005, 11:00 PM
For Prof X do you have to get Vibranium on all the Danger Room missions?
Also, grabbing + throwing for Batter Up! is the easiest way to get the teamwork ones...
LOL except for the easiest one, where it's all Cerci. Can't throw them. :(
Destor
10-10-2005, 11:22 PM
No, you just have to get basic completion on all missions. I didn't get Vibranium on the final teamwork. :( But it didn't matter so :)
AlphaBean
10-11-2005, 12:11 AM
Can't get any CDs from Forge so I gotta gameFAQ any that I missed.
Also, does anyone else find it impossible to defeat Sugarman on Legend? I mean, it's possible to DEFEAT him, but under 3 minutes? Are you serious? :nono:
Destor
10-11-2005, 12:15 AM
I beat him in 30 seconds, your guys must not be leveled up to well.
AlphaBean
10-11-2005, 12:39 AM
LOL :shifty:
No need to level anyone up when you have Cyclops. :$
Destor
10-11-2005, 12:58 AM
Cyclops is the shit. I had him at level 53, Wolverine level 50, Jean Grey level 48, Iron Man level 40. It was a cake walk.
AlphaBean
10-11-2005, 01:52 AM
lol, not even all of my guys are at 40 yet. In fact, only a few are :$
AlphaBean
10-11-2005, 01:59 AM
In the first one, I leveled the shit out of everyone. I think I got Cyclops pushing 80 when I finished the game, this time he was at 40. :'(
Destor
10-11-2005, 02:53 AM
He is almost unfuckwitable at level 40 anyhow.
AlphaBean
10-11-2005, 04:12 AM
So long as you run 'n' gun. He's not quite a "one-hit kill" kinda guy. Though it's easy to be a pimp when you're Cyclops... because he only has 1-2 worthwhile moves to level up; he's got the optic blast which rules, but the optic slam is just useless when you have the blast. The radiation beam is weak, esp. if you put on a radiation gear; that gives you leave to put on leadership, mutant master, visor upgrade, and flawless tactics (which in retrospect wasn't the greatest idea... should have just spent it on some passive trait).
Either way, he's good shit with maxed out mutant master and visor upgrade and so on. He just blasts the shit out of you nonstop. :love:
AlphaBean
10-11-2005, 07:35 PM
Fucking Prof X. Only character you can't AoA. :'( Why can't they just turn him into a skeleton or something? Or an awesome psionic being like Holocaust?
How useless.
Though his energy bolt is pretty hottt...
OH AND PS. I didn't get Phoenix's Disc until after I beat the game, and now it doesn't even fucking have any attributes on it.
My game just keeps glitching nonstop.
Destor
10-11-2005, 07:42 PM
X is a bad ass. The radial move where it pulls the enemies into the air and cause bleed damage makes him unstoppable and a great support character for Cyclops. The special where he revives all fallen allies and resurrects fallen enemies as allies for a short time is equally impressive.
AlphaBean
10-11-2005, 08:04 PM
Don't fallen enemies usually disappear?
Also, LOL I tried doing it after I fell to my death with Cyclops. Couldn't exactly revive a dude at the bottom of a gorge. :$
Destor
10-11-2005, 08:14 PM
I guess you would have to be quick to get the enemies on your side, that or I read it wrong and it turn enemies into allies, I'll check later. LOL @ the gorge bit. I don't see anyone getting up from that. Reading though your post your game has a lot of bugs, what system are you playing on. I'm on the GC version. :cool:
*side note*
The PC version has two extra characters. Sabertooth and Pyro. :cool:
Funky Fly
10-11-2005, 09:09 PM

WTFFFFFFFFFFFF
Pyro is useless with Sunfire around. It would be pretty crazy with Wolverine AND Sabretooth though. Imagine an all bruiser team with Wolverine, Sabretooth, Colossus and Rogue/Juggernaut. Juggernaut sucks tho. No defence whatsoever.
McDoogle
10-11-2005, 09:27 PM
Is Juggernaut stronger than Coloussus though?
Destor
10-11-2005, 10:11 PM
Basically it adds options for the Brotherhood of evil. Magneto, Sabertooth, Toad, Pyro, Scarlet Witch, and Jugernaut with +15% experience wouldn't be a bad thing.
Raven Knights is the best team to take, imo. +60% tech bit drops goes a long way (Ice Man, Prof X, Iron Man, Dead Pool.)
Brusier Brigade isn't bad either (Wolverine, Colosus, Jugarnaut, Rogue.) +20 energy per knock out is cool im my book.
AlphaBean
10-11-2005, 11:34 PM
I go AoA all the way.
WTF does Raven Knights mean?
Anyway, Juggs has defense if you pump up that balance att or whatever. I mean, he's not in the 1500 range like Colossus, but he's still no waif.
Seriously though, why is Colossus so hardcore? Is it because he died? :'(
McDoogle
10-12-2005, 03:18 PM
Colossus died? When?
Destor
10-12-2005, 03:21 PM
He was going into a burning building trying to save people when the building collapsed on him, great death. I'm pretty sure he died sometime in the late 80's early 90's, not sure though.
McDoogle
10-12-2005, 03:24 PM
But he's colossus, he can't die.

Fignuts is about to get geektastic.
Colossus actually a few years ago. He sacrificed himself to destroy the Legacy Virus. He made his return recently in the pages of Astonishing X-men.
Be lucky Mitchanthropic hasn't seen this yet. He'll probably have an anuerism.

Can you play as all the bosses and minions in the versus mode, like in the last game?
Destor
10-12-2005, 03:53 PM
Jean Grey died at the end of the Phoenix storyline, and has been dead every since. Really added some depth to Cyclops.
Destor
10-12-2005, 03:57 PM

Not all bosses, but most. I was just fixing to correct myself on the Colosus deal too. Damn you Fignuts.
AlphaBean

WTF how come Jean is dead but Cyclops is still alive?
Also, wtf, shut up guys, every X Man has died at least once. Except for the ones nobody cares about, like Iceman.
Seriously though, what's up with magically bringing people back just for a new comic book?
Craziness. Wish I was 14.
Then I could read comic books, and chat online to Samichna all the time.

Jean Grey is one of the few characters that hasn't been brought back out side of alternate dimensions. She ate a star or a planet or something to that extent and they killed her off soon after. Cyclops became a very depressing character after that.
The only time I remember Iceman dieing is in the Age of Apocalypse future where Colossus went crazy and shattered him. Although my X-men knowledge is apparently waining, so I cant say for sure if that is the only time he has died.
Bringing people back is usually back by a good to decent storyline. Except for all that ultimate BS. I haven't been reading and watching these characters develop for years just for them to rewrite it.

So she Phoenixed up again, eh?
All I care about is that Betsy came back again. They need to have her in legends 3, tbh. If I could be her from the start, I'd be so happy. She'd have the shadows thing, swords, psychic ish, so awesome.
Anyway, did that Colossus/Iceman thing happen in the original AOA storyline? I don't remember that. It's been a long time... Or was it, like, in a subsequent AOA storyline that might have happened? Cause if there is another AOA that would be fucking sweet.

No, it happened in X-men Omega, there where many renditions of the AoA story line. Its was pretty cool, Colossus went crazy and trampled Kitty pride (his wife) killing her. Then he shattered Ice Man, and then Gambit was forced to kill him.
This is a pretty decent X-men website if your interested:

Its got pretty much any info you would need, not too in depth but it gives you the gist of things.

Colossus's return was probably one of the coolest ressurections ever, so I really don't have a problem with it.
Jean Grey also died rather recently, but now that Cyclops is knockin boots with the White Queen, he's pretty happy again.

How was he ressurected?

So this isn't spam: NightCrawler is a bad ass at level 50.
The real reason for posting is this: I was doing some X-men research and I found a gay X-man. In 2003 issue 415 of the uncanny X-men its is revealed the North Star has a crush on Iceman. :nono:
I didn't feel like starting a Northstar is a queer thread.

So my second game freezes on Sugar Man now. Every fucking time. If I hurry I can beat him, but by the time he dies, it freezes. Every time. Christ.
What's funny is I just got Cyke to 53 I think, and I'm going against level 75 dudes. It's hardcore.

Just passed the game, friggin awsome. Although I have a question as Magneto I have the power up to make the metal ally to fight along side with me but I have no clue how to activate it...any help?

It's an Extreme power... you have to assign it to Triangle, and only can use it when you have one of those boxes filled with 4 wedges of the X.

One more question Bean...I have found all the beacons for the Iron Man parts (Acts 1-4) and I have collected all his parts yet when I go to act 5 nothing happens...What's going on here?
Destor
10-19-2005, 05:47 PM
You have to get all the beacons in act 5, then beat the mini stage, then give the part to Tony Starks when he appears.

Where the fuck are the beacons in Act 5?

Fuck if I know. Scatterd randomly though out the stage. Map eveything and you should find them.

A lot easier to find than in act 4. You won't have trouble.

Yeah be careful there though, make sure you have bridgers and/or flyers... and don't dick around; my entire team magically died when I did it the first time. Then I tried to skate across with iceman and he just kinda dropped. SUXED.

10-19-2005, 08:24 PM
I dunno I can't find any in Act 5...goddammit.

lol bean. You're game is fucked up.
McDoogle: Where are you at in act 5?
AlphaBean
10-19-2005, 08:37 PM
YEAH I KNOW HUH.
Anyway, the ones in act 5 I think are all the same color as the ground; dude probably has a slight case of colorblindness.
I bet the madri temple was a bitch when he tried finding all the vases to smash...
time to gamefaqs.com it

I already passed the game so I started from the very beginning of the pyramid smashed everything and I found 1. It was a breeze to find the others in the other ACTS I just dont know why this is being a bitch.

In the room where you fought Apocalypse take a teleporter (Nightcrawler or Deadpool) and go to the back of the room, this is in the main part of the room mind you not the sections off to the side. You will see a beacon behind a fence. Teleport in there and you will have two.

REMEMBER:
Turret is the greatest weapon in the game. Then the plasma thing where it bounces through people and off walls. Beautiful. :love:
