    Wahoo! Now there's Hulk!

    Marvel: Ultimate alliance puts together lots of Marvel characters from the comics and lets you play as them to take down a mysterious team made up of the Marvel baddies. This is essentially an action game, and as an action game the main focus is wandering around different levels taking out bad guys. And that it does very well, but the the problem is that is all it does. There are no minigames or anything to pass the time, all it is a wandering slug fest.

    Now that that's aside, i'm going to do this review a bit differently, i'm going to rate it and put it into sections depending on how good it is.

    Gameplay: 5- It runs fine, but there are too many glitches to let this one of, say getting stuck in the wall.

    Graphics: 5- By no means the worst looking game on the console but certainly not the best either.

    Fighting system: 3- A terrible fighting system, occasionly it even gets confused by what attack is which!

    Learning curve: 0- You are told how to attack and jump at the beggining of the game....That's it.....

    Overall Marvel: Ultimate allience is an ok game, but suffers from too mny flaws to make it worthwhile.  However in the Xbox360 version there is downloadable characters which ups the score a bit.2.5 STARS!

The game sat on the shelf for a while but due to my growing interest in comics I decided to finally sit down and play through the game.MUA is a brawler/RPG hybrid that allows you to control 4 super-heroes. At any given time the player controls a single character but is able to send basic squad commands to AI controlled chara...

        The original Marvel: Ultimate was released in 2006, a simpler time for superheroes. Back then, superheroes weren’t at war with each other over some kind of ambiguous superhero registration act and the comics weren’t trying to reflect reality with a social commentary…or at least they weren’t as obvious. Ultimate took place back when Captain was Steve Rogers and not the three or four people that have since tried to fill his HGH-filled shoes. And with the new Ultimate Alliance 2 game seeking i...
