Synopsis
The Incredibles is a video game based on the film of the same name, released in 2004 for the PlayStation 2, Xbox, Nintendo GameCube, Game Boy Advance, Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Mobile phones.

Setting
The setting on this game goes to loads of different places, as it keeps the classic games level style, insted of a free-roam world. this one of the first Action/Adventure games i had, and i thought it was brilliant also the way it used cut-scenes from the actual films was a little cheap but i really liked it, if you had watched the film, then you could get a sense of what the level was going to be like. All the levels were different to suit the characters, like if it was mr incredible the strong one, there would be loads of obsticles were you were to break/lift stuff, mrs incredible the stretchy one, there would be obsticles for her to swing on or use her stretch to break power systems. dash would have levels full of jumps and strong obsticles that he would use his super speed to jump over or aviod also the missions were time limited because it was sort of like a race when you did a superfast mission. Violet was generally the same as dash's.
Setting rating:8/10

Gameplay
The gameplay of the incredibles was really good, If you have watched the film you'll know its about superpowers, well superhero's infact. There are 4 superpowers you use it the game and that is: Super Strenth, which was great for fighting missions, you could also do a number of cool things, lke being able to throw heavy objects at people, or cars, or even helicopters, which was fun for bringing out the beast from within. Super Speed, which was my favourite and probably everyone elses, I enjoyed the way you would race through jungles, moterways, at one point your actually running on water, i mean water come on that is beast! Super Force, which was fun but didnt keep the element of being invincible like on the film, insted you had a health limit on the forcefield you had which actually disapointed me. Super Stretch, which was my second favourite power, fun for throwing grenades, people and doing spins with my arms killing everyone around me, also using it to swing from place to place, it was really fun to use.Overall id say the game was really fun to play.

Gameplay Rating:8.6/10


Graphics
Considering it was a game based on a film, and like all videogames were then, they were really quickly made games after the film had been out, and were usually terrible graphics wise, but it actually wasn't at the time they were pretty good in game, but the cutscenes in the game, not just took from the film were awful due to it being zoomed in so much the graphics were actually terrible, but apart from that they were fine.

Graphics Rating:5.4/10

Controls
The controls for this game were pretty good, nothing to complicated, was just basic controls really. Seemed like platform controls with the X to jump SQUARE to punch CIRCLE to grab or throw and Y being a special move. The controls were fun to use and i dont think they could have picked any better ones, also due to using no cars/planes/helicopters the controls wern't all over the place due to useing different equipment, luckly the whole game is on foot so no confusuion involved.

Controls Rating:7.4/10


Overall
Overall i believe the games is fun yet quite a short game due to the fact its a movie branded film, making it not such a great game but can easily entertain someone under the age of 11. The controls are great real easy to use, the graphics are pretty bad but it was made in a short period of time, gameplay was simple and great minor faults but nothing to bad!

Overall Rating:7/10
