I know it's cliche to think that any game based on a movie franchise is immediately going to suck, but if games like the DS version of Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer continue to get made, that cliche is going to keep thriving. Pulling no punches here, this DS game is awful: terrible concept, bad level designs, poor use of the franchise. And it's ugly -- I've seen better looking Game Boy Advance titles. Whether or not the movie's a success is still up in the air as of this writing.

What's known is the videogame version's lousy.  According to the manual, the Nintendo DS game has been developed by the same creative force that's produced the console version of the Fantastic Four game: 7 Studios. The team's been all over the place in game quality, from its Defender remake for Midway to the Sopranos PlayStation 2 title. But 7 Studios doesn't have much in the way of handheld experience, and it really shows. Shoddy production values plague the game. It looks bad, plays bad, and is bad.
