First things first, I would like to say that I am a huge fan of Wolverine, both in comic form and movie form. I think what Hugh Jackman does for the character is complimentary, despite him being too tall. And even though the Wolverine origins movie was kind of crap, I can still appreciate it for being an action movie and think it accomplished what it set out to do.
Hugh Jackman is passionate about the character and has already said that the next installment, which will be set in Japan, will actually be the movie they intended to make first, but because Fox is producing and not Marvel they just couldn't do that.
With that in mind, the X-Men Origins: Wolverine game was a pleasant surprise for me. I think it helps that the game was in production long before the movie, and only became a movie tie-in later. This puts it above the other X-Men movies because it had more time and thought put into it. And this is all apparent when playing the game.
