I played it at my sister's place. My browser can't handle these things, but they've got the ultra fast, suped up stuff.

The characters are 3-d, after the fashion of games like Tekken. There's a variety of moves, which, if used in the film, will be really cool. Mister Fantastic can throw an arm with a balled up fist and kock you down. He can leap upwards, form into a rubber ball, bounce and avoid blasts, also pound you (and a few other moves).

The Human Torch steals the show really. First of all, you can fly, you can throw flames, and he looks great.

The Thing looks especially good. He can do this thing where he pounds the floor. Fun stuff. Now, I had trouble figuring out a lot of the moves.

Whoever was playing Sue never made a go of it, probably had a slow internet feed, or trouble figuring things out, I dunno. But I didn't get to see her powers.

You can IM the other players through the web site, and that's what started happening rather than game-play.

The game was diverting enough, a nice element on the part of Fox to include.
