In this game, Magneto is restricted by a PowerLimiter, and the goal of chasing him is to stop him from breaking it. His not being at full strength is the reason Wolverine has a chance of beating him.

* SaveTheVillain: In the first level of Act II, Wolverine will see one of the enemy soldiers slip over the edge of a collapsed bridge as he approaches. The player is given a countdown timer of a few seconds to get to the soldier's location while the soldier hangs on to the edge of the bridge for dear life. "Saving" him involves initiating a Strike attack that has Logan [[GoodIsNotSoft pick him up, punch him in the face, and throw him into some crates in the back of a supply truck]]. Letting the timer run out simply has the soldier lose his grip and fall to his death.
** In one of the final cinematics, Wolverine reaches for [[spoiler:Lady Deathstrike]] as she loses her grip and plummets from a skyscraper, though he is a split-second too late.

** A level where you use a giant mounted laser cannon to pick off enemy troops from a hundred yards away seems like it's going to be a BreatherLevel. The player quickly learns it's a five minute long gauntlet of pain where you can either memorize the exact timing and locations of each incoming wave of troops, or lose every time.
*** Ditto for an earlier one where you remotely control a "Void Droid", an advanced prison-guarding robot with a minigun and plasma cannon. It's slow, difficult to maneuver and anything but indestructible, which is bad news for non-fans of going all the way back to the beginning of the long, arduous level if the Void Droid gets scrapped before it can cross the level and open an otherwise impassable door. Ironically, when you have to face identical Void Droids as Wolverine later on, they're terrifying obstacles.
*** Magneto. Mother-bleeping Magneto. To beat him, [[GuideDangIt you have to use one particular attack from one particular spot]] (while dodging the wide and painful arrangement of things he'll send flying your way) to knock him down and beat the crap out of him. If that wasn't bad enough, you're on a clock -- beat him before he gets his power-dampening collar off and instantly murders you. And to make it worse, he's not even the final boss.
