1-Updates
=========

Version 1.0
This gude is the spawn of my boredom. I was able to beat thegame in only a few hrs so I thought
this guide would take up and equal amount of my time.

|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

2-Game Info
===========

PLATFORM: Game Boy Color
PUBLISHER: Activision
DEVELOPER: Crawfish Interactive
GENRE: Fighter
ORIGIN: U.K.
NUMBER OF PLAYERS: 2
RELEASE: July 2000

|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

3-My Ten Cents (Canadian)
=========================

X-MEN: Mutant Academy for the the GBC if a half decent game but only half. The moves are O.K.
but they are not needed I was able to beat this game by just rapidly tapping the punch button.
The game gets a little harder on the hardest difficulty buit the same cheap style will work.
Also the levels are spead out all over the world in random places. Which was O.K. but I would
have liked different levels for each fighter or maybe the War room as a level for when fighting
other X-MEN. I will give this game a 4/10 cents Canadian that is 3/6.5 American.

Buy this game only if your friends have it or just get the game for PSX or N64.

|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

4-The Story
===========

The story is simple Prove that you are the stongest X-MEN then take on the Evil mutants and
save the world.
