Players take on the role of Ben Tennyson, a short, witty, Peter Parker-esque teen superhero who has the ability to transform into various aliens with all sorts of different powers. With unpolished presentation, gameplay that grows old after five minutes and a story that is completely incomprehensible to anyone who's not a devoted fan of the television series, Ben 10 Omniverse 2 - like its 3DS counterpart - is a big disappointment. Unfortunately, D3Publisher and developer High Voltage Software completely miss the mark with Ben 10 Omniverse 2, which feels like nothing more than a clumsy cash-in.
With a plucky, wise-cracking kid hero, a host of supporting characters with funny and unique personalities and abilities, a surprisingly deep mythos and aliens to beat up, the Ben 10 franchise is rife with potential for great video games.
