This game has great graphics but the levels are difficult and a bit repetitive. Not a bad Game it's still fun to play.

Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters piggybacks off the upcoming movie. Ryan Reynolds lends his voice and likeness, and the game tells a tale that's a side story to the film (at least I assume it's a side story as the movie isn't out yet). If you don't know, the Green Lanterns are the police force of the universe. Their power rings allow them to create "hard-light" constructs of whatever they can imagine out of green energy. In the game, the original protectors of the galaxy -- the Manhunters -- return, and Green Lantern of Sector 2814 Hal Jordan has to beat the bejesus out of them through 10 levels. Each level plays out in one of two ways. Either you march through on foot and wail on enemies with all kinds of hard-light constructs (there's a gatling gun, mech suit and even a jet) or you literally fly through an on-rails level and blast soaring enemies with your power ring. When you're going at it on the ground, the God of War influence will be obvious. The camera is anchored at a set point, you have attacks as well as grabs, and special ring moves are up on your shoulder buttons. As you make those green objects (which you can map to buttons however you like), you need to make sure you don't exhaust your power ring's charge, but like all your attacks and abilities, the amount of energy you have at your disposal is upgradeable. In the air, you can just blast away and never really worry about anything; if you shoot and move, you're going to clear the level. These missions are confusing as a ton of crap is going on and people are shooting at you, but they're not cheap so it's not annoying And that's Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters -- not even in a nutshell, that's the game. It's all third-person action over and over again. I wasn't frustrated at any point and I wasn't blown away. Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters is just a beat'em up jaunt through this corner of the DC Universe. I'm fine with that but I'm not impressed by some of the long loads and hiccups as Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters runs. Still, the various weapons I unlocked kept the battles interesting enough even though I was doing the same thing over and over, and the Trophy/Achievement system had me trying all sorts of different attacks. Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters is a competent movie game with no major flaws but no real high points. It serves its purpose of giving you a Green Lantern ring and letting you run wild on a bunch of bad guys. The graphics aren't great, the dialogue isn't wonderful, and the gameplay isn't anything special.Read full review
I love this game in general. The game codes still weren't used. Over all very grateful
