| 260 of 264 people found the following review helpful  The good, the bad, and the ugly, By = Fun: This review is from: 40 Years of X-Men: The Complete Collection (DVD-ROM) First off, this isn't a game, or a movie. Its a DVD-rom that can only be viewed on a DVD capable computer.THE GOOD This the first 40 year run of the comic book X-men, currently titled Uncanny X-Men. It includes issues 1-461, in order by year, including Giant Size X-Men 1. It also includes all the annuals in a separate menu. These are high quality scans, all in PDF format. THE BAD This includes ONLY Uncanny X-Men issues. Thats all fine and dandy, until you get to the mid-80's when X-Factor and New Mutants began their runs. So when you get to major cross over events, like the Mutant Massacre, Inferno, X-tiction Agenda, X-cutioner's Song, and the minor ones inbetween, you only get the Uncanny issues. This leaves some major holes in the stories. Sure, you can go buy the TPBs of the crossovers, but then you're re-buying the Uncanny issues. All the Age of Apocalypse is missing too, along with X-franchising one shots like X-Men Prime...

Why Wolverine and Cyclops are always at each other's throat, why the original X-Men are different from the current, how Phoenix's powers emerged, how Professor X loss the use of his legs, power changes, huge plotlines and twists, etc.Also, I own a Mac and have no problem using the DVD. THE GOOD: Over 485 issues with all pages and in full color. To purchase these, even in TPB format would be hundreds of dollars. THE BAD: No crossover issues. Plus, reading them on screen is not that much fun unless you have a laptop or portable device. VERDICT: The good by far outweighs the bad if you are a true X-Men fan or want to start from the beginning. 18 of 19 people found the following review helpful A Collector's Dream, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: 40 Years of X-Men: The Complete Collection (DVD-ROM) I collected X-Men back in the 70's and 80's, and always loved the original team the best. My collection is now socked safely away from children and dogs and whatnot, but I can now enjoy every issue in prestine mint wherever I find myself, even take the whole kit and kaboodle on the road. A previous reviewer was frustrated at Mac OS X not being able to detect his DVD. He may want to get a replacement disk, because I can vouch personally that the DVD runs perfectly on my Mac portable. |
