For the record, the models are most based on the actors doing the voice and motion capture.

Which is fine in most cases, but here it really feels ill-fitting. Or at least, somewhere on the spectrum between a one-to-one likeness with the actor and a one-to-one depiction of the comic book character, they should have slid like 20% more towards the latter. Even 10% would probably do.

Yeah that's the thing, when Capcom uses face models, they use them as a baseline and then "tune" the actual in-game models to what they think befits the character. No shade on the actors obviously, but Wolverine, like Mike said, looks like an extra. His features are just way too soft for what the character requires imo.

But the whole "moviegame" thing aside, it seems that game has some seriously questionable design.
