Wolverine: Adamantium Rage
By 1994, Wolverine had emerged as the most popular X-Men character. Capitalizing on the love for the grizzly grump, a video game was released, focusing purely on him. Best part about it, though? It actually explored his history which had been a bit of a mystery up until that point.
As far as gameplay goes, Wolverine: Adamantium Rage was a multi-platform brawler, which relied more on brute strength than finesse. His claws did come in handy, though, when you needed to climb walls or ceilings, but they were mostly there for the stabbing. Furthermore, this was one of the first titles to feature a recharging health system, a relative novelty in an era where you snoozed, you died.
Weirdly enough, Sabretooth was missing from the SNES version, which is quite puzzling considering how important the character is to the mythos. Despite the lack of him, though, Wolverine: Adamantium Rage remains the definitive game about the ol’ Canucklehead.
