As good as it gets with great graphics and a game play that keeps you coming back for more. One of the best values you can get from a snes game.

Superman has had some of the worse treatment as a character when it comes to video games. Except for this one. This is one of the few exceptions to the rule with its fun gameplay and enjoyable storyline. It is basically a beat em up where you not only get to play as superman, but as Superboy, Eradicator, Steel, and Cyborg Superman. What would make this game better would be if you could play as Green Lantern. Hopefully, those of you reading this are familiar with Death and Return of Superman story arc otherwise you will be lost.
If you're like me, you were into comics back in the 90's. This era brought marvelous stories and sagas, from the story of Bane & Azrael in Batman to the X-Men parallel universe saga, there was none more memorable than the Death & Return of Superman! I don't remember there being a more exciting time in all my years of comic interest than this saga. Now, with a game that I never knew existed until this year (2006), you can relive the story with Superman and all of the "Supermen" that claimed to take his place after his "death". I don't want to spoil the game, but if you're interested in this game, you probably know the jist of the story. The game moves along rather quickly. The Death & Return of Superman plays a lot like Final Fight and Streets of Rage (a typical brawler genre popular on 16-bit systems), where gameplay is pretty linear and straightforward. I was surprised at how fun the game was when I started playing it! Overall, any brawler type game can get boring after a while, but with all the different Supermen that you play as, there is enough variety to keep you interested! At one point early in the game, you play as the Cyborg Superman in what can only be described as a Gradius/R-Type-style stage. When you get back to regular gameplay, your character has new and improved moves! I don't want to give away too much of the game, but this one is surprisingly entertaining! Overall, if you want to relive the saga of perhaps the most memorable comic book event from the 1990's, this is the game to play! With the movie 'Superman Returns' that was released earlier this year, and the continued Smallville series, gamers and comic book fans have sparked their interest in the Superman franchise. That, along with the scarce availability of this game, has made this is game very hard to find! Grab one if you have the chance!Read full review

I have a SNES with a bunch of old cartridges. I had played and passed them all and wanted something with a change of pace. I asked my buddy (who's a vidoe game addict as well) which game should I go for. He gave me a list of options and told me that the best place to get them was in eBay. One of them was "The Death and Return of Superman". So, I got it, played with it, and LOVED it! Anybody a fan of the original will absolutely enjoy it. Even if not a fun, the game is just too fun. You don't only play as Superman, you get to play as the other 4 Supermen. Each has a unique fighting style and each has an awesome power. Anybody a fan of sidescrolling game should have this game in their collection.
I like classic games thanks.😊
