The Largest Army of Super Heroes is Back! The highly anticipated sequel to 2006's Marvel:Ultimate Alliance-heralded as the best Marvel Super Hero game of all time, and selling more than 4 million units worldwide-is finally here with Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2. Inspired by the acclaimed Marvel Civil War storyline, this action-RPG delivers once again on a colossal cast of characters, thrilling gameplay and impassioned alliances. This next-gen gaming experience leaves the fate of the Marvel Universe-and humankind-in your hands. Lines are drawn. Sides are chosen. And the ultimate question remains: Whose side are you on? Product Summary: The Marvel Universe is being torn apart. The Superhuman Registration Act becomes law and Super Heroes must register as weapons of mass destruction, becoming licensed government agents. As Civil War is stirred, Iron Man leads the Pro-Registration side while Captain America spearheads the stand on Anti-Registration. The enemies you battle and the missions you accomplish depend on which side you choose.
Excellent game, Great fighting mechanics, but not so much to overload you. Over 40 marvel heros AND villains to play. Roughly about 7-9 hours of play, with 4 player online co-op. Gets a 8.5/10 from me
Although it can be finished in about 8 hours, the single player campaing offers 15-20 hours of play, plus online modes. Both variations of the story are very good. The graphics have too much glare; the cutscenes are better. The loadtimes are annoying. The art style is nice. The music is forgettable but the sound effects are okay. The voice overs are very well acted. The controls work well but the camera is too far from the action. I had fun playing as my fav super heroes. (7.5)
Having played thoroughly through Marvel Ultimate Alliance, this game although improved upon left me feeling as if I have done this before "deja vu". There is little drive to see and do everything as it has all been done in other earlier incarnation of the game. As fan of the civil war comic series the game lacked in conveying the emotion and did not do it justice. However it is still worth a one time play through as it can be fun a times but won't take more the 12-15 hours.
If you liked the first game, check this one out. It plays a lot like the first one with some differences, like the camera is closer to the caracters and the possibility to fusion two caracters powers, which can be awesome. The graphics are nice, the sound also. Marvel fan check this one out. 7/10
