Had promise but poorly executed
Activision has a dubious track record for making great and near excellent Spider-Man games and making poor and lacking X-Men games.Why this is is anyone's guess, and X-Men: Mutant Wars for the GameBoy Color is one of these types of games featuring everyone's favorite merry band of mutants.In this 2-D side scroller you get to pick from Wolverine, Storm, Cyclops, Iceman, and Gambit as you take out hordes of generic baddies and then take on bosses, most of which are most well known even to casual X-Men fans.The graphics are nice and colorful and look surprisingly good, and each character's powers are presented well, but the overall feel of the game just feels unfinished and the levels are poorly designed.If your a GameBoy gamer of any kind and are a fan of the X-Men then this game is worth a look, but don't expect anything remotely redeeming from it.

I like it!
I concur with the other reviewers.This game is pretty fun and I like the characters.I've been using it on the GameBoy Advance and it is pretty nice.

THE X-MEN ROCK
This game is very fun to play.It has lots of levels and each character has there own special moves.It has a boss at the end of each level which is cool also. If you like X-men or action, get this game!

its okay......
this game is not brilliant but can include all the action a gameboy could give....the enemies are pretty easy to kill but the bosses( some of them ) are not, especially the last boss..... includes all the x-men including one called 'iceman' which i have never heard before with all their special attacks and special moves. if your an x-men fan buy it if not don't.

Okay.........
good selection and all but it had lack of dificultie. If you liked the playstation version, this is half as good. ... Read more

lava alarm! video
my son got lava alarm for his birthday he has just recently gotten into the rescue heros we all like them but in this movie two boys are being recued from a valcano.in the part were the boys are being lifted out just in time when you see the boys from the heros view it looks like both boys have a rope around thier neck. well my son wrapped a cord around his neck "pretending" to bea hero the cord caught and luckily it came lose because he fell off his bed.he now has a three inch rope burn on his neck it scared him but i think that people with children who have active imaginations and like the heros should be told that they can get hurt if they do it like they do in the video...all ropes cords or anything else is gone from his room but it does not change the fact that on christmas eve we almost lost our son he was lucky i belive the people who made the video over looked a very important part of the movie...........

A great game for children
I bought this game for my five year old son.He loves the game.It is easy to learn, yet challenging enough to keep him interested.The variety of the several mini-games included has kept him busy with this game for a few months already (!)

Technically, the game is good too.Clear talking voices from the various Rescue Heroes is pretty neat.

As a parent, I appreciate the fact that this is an action game, yet contains no violence.It is about helping people and animals.

Fisher Price Rescue Heroes: Fire Frenzy
This is the third Gameboy title we have purchased for our 4-year old son. He's really into Power Rangers and Rescue Heroes, so the subject matter was excellent. Although it is not listed as an EC title, our son who has computer game experience, has found it challenging enough to hold his attention, yet easy enough to master so that he doesn't get discouraged. There's no mindless violence, no creepy villains. It's a really well-designed game, and has been well worth the money, since he has yet to get bored with it.

Ideal Game for kids
My six year old son was so excited to find that he could 'help' his favorite Rescue Heroes with different adventures.What an excellent video game.I had no qualms purchasing this game for him because I have been so pleased with the action figures and his long term fascination with true heroes of today.It's a pleasure finding a game that has non-stop action instead of repetitive violence.

awesome, completely awesome
Wow!I am a mom who was lucky enough to get her hands on this hard to find game. (Thanks amazon.com).

For the benefit of those looking at this game as a possible one for their kids, let me expand on what this games offers...it is ideal for ages 4 and up. No reading required.

My son is having a fantastic time playing along with the rescue missions. He's just new to gameboy. It is easy enough for him understand, but challenging and engaging enough to keep him interested and focused.

I work in a store that sells gameboy games. It's too bad more people either don't know about this game or are not able to get a copy easily at this time.

It's worth putting yourself on the waiting list for. There is no other game on Gameboy like this game. It's perfect for those kids who love action, but whose parents don't want them exposed to the violence of other kiddy favorites.

Also worthy of note...there are rescuers of both gender in this game. ... Read more
