5 out of 5 stars Good Purchase for my 10 yr son   January 6, 2009

My son loves this game. He would play for hours if I would let him. He is able to be different characters which he really likes. I would highly recommend.


1 out of 5 stars Two boys' review: Awkward gameplay spoils DC debut on DS   November 28, 2008
Jared Castle (Roseburg, Oregon United States)
I have two sons, ages 6 and 4, who are die-hard superhero fans. I grabbed this game during a sale, thinking Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, The Flash...wow! All these superheroes in one game!

Well, all of those superheroes don't really matter when the gameplay is monotonous beat-'em-up. I was hoping for something along the lines of the Fantastic Four title on the Game Boy Advance, where each superhero has distinct skills and abilities. Batman and Superman -- and Wonder Woman! for that matter -- shouldn't be interchangable but that's the case here.

I've read that the Playstation 2 version of Justice League Heroes was more enjoyable and that's the direction I'd point you in should you also own that console. For Nintendo DS players, I recommend you pick up a Game Boy Advance copy of Justice League Heroes: The Flash or wait until a better DC superhero game is released on the Nintendo DS

In the meantime, check out my Amazon Listmania Lists of Nintendo DS games for young boys.



4 out of 5 stars It's good!!   January 28, 2007

I've read the other reviews and it's not as bad as people have been writing. Each JLA superhero (you can choose from Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash and Batman) is specialized. Each has characteristics unique to the charachters (Superman and Wonder Woman can fly, Flash is fast, etc.). The regular henchman are not unique, but that's true of a lot of video games. The bosses are distinct enough to keep it interesting.

The graphics are excellent and the storyline is engaging. I would have given it 5 stars if they would have gone a little further in developing the story elements, but it was overall a fun DC hero based game.



1 out of 5 stars Lame, generic super hero beat 'em up   November 27, 2006

6 out of 7 found this review helpful

Justice League Heroes is a surprisingly good super hero smash on the consoles, but on the DS it's a different story. Justice League Heroes for the DS is the kind of generic, bland, lame, super hero beat 'em up that gives licensed games of this type such a bad name. Playing as Superman, Batman, the Flash, and Wonder Woman; you'd think that there'd be some differences between all the characters considering their powers. Here, they react and play virtually the same way, which is a huge disappointment in itself. The levels and areas themselves are of the 3-D kind, jam packed with hordes and hordes of killer robots for you to smash up on your mission to take out Brainiac; and none of it is very hard. Not to mention that the 3-D environments themselves look blocky and just plain bad, and the animation is jerky and buggy to boot. I know the DS is capable of providing great 3-D graphics (look at Super Mario 64 DS or Spider-Man 2), but the overall package here just feels rushed. It's a shame too, because this could have actually been pretty good. If you want a portable Justice League game, check out the surprisingly good Justice League Heroes: The Flash for the GBA, which is much, much better than this, which should be left on the shelf where it belongs.


2 out of 5 stars Don't Buy It For DS   October 21, 2006

The game play on this is absolutely awful. It's hard to control the characters and you fight the same enemies over and over again. Don't waste your money like I did.
