While no final rating is given, the reviewer found the game enjoyable, despite some multiplayer issues: The single player campaign is a rich, enjoyable experience, but the multiplayer game falls far short of its potential. While the incredibly rich character creation system has a rough built-in balance in the form of prestige values for each character, there is no way to ensure a robust balance for such a complex array of powers. Inevitably, there are optimized strategies that transform multiplayer into a game of number crunching rather than of lighthearted super-combat. Multiplayer is still fun when competing against a friend with some ground-rules established. It also offers an arena in which to resolve those age-old disputes: "Can The Red Scare really defeat The Hulking Blob?!" Unfortunately, at this time, play against strangers has devolved into duels between 30,000 point single heroes with flying, incredibly powerful beam weapons, and invulnerability to seemingly everything. Also, as a game in which matches rarely top a minute in length, the game desperately needs an in-game browser. An external matching service can seemingly take eternity to find a game which is over almost instantaneously.
