I loved the ghost rider film. it was well cast and the special effects were fantastic…and it had a well written story.. action packed fun! the first marvel film of the year and its raising hell..(this film is wayy better than daredevil)
fast forward to the ghost rider the game based on the movie..all i can say is..awesome! first, its a original story written by the series writers so you are in for a treat… second the graphics are quality playstation 2 fare..one thing though..why didnt they also release this for the playstation 3 and xbox 360? the action is a intense..a high quality “button masher” and the levels where you drive the hell cycle are incredible..
for you newbies out there, the ghost riders story is basically put , you are hell’s bounty hunter out to defeat the demons loose in our world..while fighting to save your beloved roxanne(johnnys long time love) but once you make the pact with the devil your soul is his..and you have to become the spirit of vengence at night dishing out justice…
the game plays like god of war(only without those annoying mini puzzles) if you ever played g.o.w ..you know how to play Ghost rider..so it will feel natural. i dont know why some people are ripping on this game sure they used the GOW engine it makes perfect sense, but its done in the mighty marvel style..and its very entertaining…oh, and the rider looks awesome..the flames and details are done really well.. and the rider has thar same demonic voice.. if you liked the movie..grab this game..i had to go to 3 stores before i finally found a copy…
Ghost rider, has some insane attack moves as well as all his famous weapons from the comics..including the hellfire shotgun(johnny blaze’s weapon of choice if you read the comics..you know what im talking about) ..and the famoue CHAINS(love these) add to that you also have the rider’s famous penance stare. if you dont know what that is..the penance stare is when ghost rider captures you then looks you dead center in your eyes and enflicts on you all the pain and suffering you have caused people in your life..and you usually go insane after that..but in the game it is also a incredible super combo move.. which is a nice touch…
this game is a great stress reliever after work thats for sure..(i get a kick out of the move where ghost rider yells “come here!” and pulls the demon to him with his chain and does a incredible finishing move)
also you get to unlock lots of hidden goodies such as the comics, making of, and a few surprises..
the movie, is a hit( cant wait for ghost rider 2) the game is top notch, dont listen to those negative reviewers check this out for yourself.. and burn some rubber and kick some demon butt with the spirit of vengence… its a wild ride…
side note, ghost rider was one of marvel’s b list characters until the smash hit 1990s series put him back on the map. and he now has a movie.. now marvel is working on a live action Moon Knight television series..and someday hopefully a movie and a stellar game. its a great time to be a marvel fan.. nuff said.

This game is a must buy if you are an old fan of ol’ Flamehead. Plays similarly to God of War. THe riding sequences are fun and intense and there are plenty of old villians from the series that will leave you with a sense of nostalgia.
MUCH better than I was expecting.

This is a good superhero game. But you it steals some things from God of War. Like the combos and stuff. When your on foot it can get boring after a little while but it still is fun. The best part of the game is the motorcycle levels. Its fast pace and its pure awesome!!!! You can unlock lots of stuff! The down side about the game is its tooo short!!!! But its still a good game to rent.

First of all, let me tell you I love comic books(I’m more of DC fan, though)! This game is okay. It can get extremely repetitive and that is the most major flaw of this game. Another flaw would be the difficulty. It’s waaay too easy! I have beaten this game twice already (and I did it in one weekend)! The graphics are okay and the voice acting is pretty cheesy. The best thing about the game are the extras. You have a bunch of comic books in the game and you have a lot of sweet costumes (and characters) to play as. Sadly, there really is no need to play with these costumes or characters because the story mode is pretty pointless. The final negative thing is there is no level select!!!! It drives me crazy how a game that is not open-world (oh by the way, this game should’ve been open world.. think about it) cannot have a level select. There is no excuse. Other than the things I mentioned, this game is okay. Acceptable, as the title says.

My 7 year old son loves this game. He saw the movie and thinks the game’s special effects are great.
Fast moving action and lots of fighting.
Please make sure that your your child does not play this game for longer than 1 hour per day. The fast moving pace and fighting can become very addictive.
