Reception
Superman Returns: The Videogame was not received very well by many critics. IGN criticized the game's lack of a concluding villain saying that "The final boss in Superman Returns: The Videogame is a tornado; Not Lex Luthor; Not General Zod; not that Nuclear Man -- not even Richard Pryor. A tornado!". Official PlayStation 2 Magazine UK gave the game a 5/10, saying "They've got the man bit down but in no way is this super." Official Xbox Magazine gave the Xbox version of this game the award of "Best Graphics... if They Were on a PlayStation 1" in the 2006 Game of The Year Awards. X-Play gave it a 1/5 for poor control, boring and bland enemies, and for featuring a tornado as the final boss.

Famous quotes containing the word reception:
“To aim to convert a man by miracles is a profanation of the soul. A true conversion, a true Christ, is now, as always, to be made by the reception of beautiful sentiments.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“He’s leaving Germany by special request of the Nazi government. First he sends a dispatch about Danzig and how 10,000 German tourists are pouring into the city every day with butterfly nets in their hands and submachine guns in their knapsacks. They warn him right then. What does he do next? Goes to a reception at von Ribbentropf’s and keeps yelling for gefilte fish!”
—Billy Wilder (b. 1906)
“To the United States the Third World often takes the form of a black woman who has been made pregnant in a moment of passion and who shows up one day in the reception room on the forty-ninth floor threatening to make a scene. The lawyers pay the woman off; sometimes uniformed guards accompany her to the elevators.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
