I've played Superworld before and it didn't really work.
The problem with BRP superhero games is that BRP differentiates between skills, characteristics, powers and so on and there isn't really a mechanism for them all to work together.
So, Megaman has STR 100 and tries to lift Gorgo (SIZ 120) using the Resistance Table, all well and good. But what if Zapman uses his Mind Zap ability against Megaman? How will he resist?
Also, with BRP you need to describe each ability down to the last detail, what it costs, what damage it does, how it is resisted and so on.
HeroQuest is a far better system to play a SuperHero game, in my opinion.
