The game world is presented from a top-down perspective but this view isn't as restrictive as it is in most games presented in this manner. The world of Heroes is fully 3D and looks crisp and beautiful even in lower resolutions. JLH also supports 720p resolution and if you have a high definition television that supports it you'll agree that the game looks like a next-generation product in every way. This world is populated by civilians, bad guys, and all kinds of objects like buildings, vehicles, trees, street signs and more that really fill out each area and make it feel like the fictional places they are modeled after.

When you've completed the storyline you can continue the adventure with all your characters and their progress intact from the beginning, choosing a higher level of difficulty or even adding a second human player into the mix. One of Justice League Heroes' strong points is it's co-op play. The cooperative play in this game is even more fun than playing solo because it's so seamless and easy to jump in and out of at any time. While the AI in the game is pretty sharp, it's always more fun and effective to have a human player behind the wheel of your partner hero. If you've been itching to find a decent co-op game for the Xbox then look no further.

After playing countless hours of Justice League Heroes I have to say that I will continue to go back for more. Justice League Heroes truly is one of the better games based on a licensed property that I've played this year on the Xbox and while I wish there were more characters and some kind of sand box battle mode, I really can't complain about what the game does offer because there's a lot of game to be played even after going through it multiple times on several different difficulty levels. If you like action RPG's or are a fan of the Justice League comics and animated series then you need to buy or rent this game and play it with a friend today.
