Marvel Ultimate Alliance

[GrandAmChandler]

Holy Crap this game is good! Especially if you have a few buddies in the same room as you. I'd say it even tops X-men Legends II.

Question, I bought the 360 version from Gamestop, and it comes with a card that has a code on it to unlock Silver Surfer. However, it doesn't say WHEN or WHERE to enter the code.... Anyone have a clue?

[Austin]

I'll second this. I live with three big comic nerds, so this game has been a blast. We're on our second playthrough already.

We've been playing the xbox version, though... so no idea where the code would go, sorry!

I was wondering if he was unlockable.

[Lothars]

yeah silver surfer is unlockable

I got the game and haven't played it much yet but I believe you have to enter the code at either the character select screen or main menu

[slip81]

I'm getting this the day before my birthday next week and on my birthday me and my friend are gonna spend the entire day untill my girlfriend gets out of work playing this through co-op.

[Sniderman]

I just found this today in fact - used - at EB Games. So, with my 10% off with the edge card, and with a bonus 10% coupon, walked out with it for around $30. Can't wait to play it tonight. Already pounded through Justice League Heroes. Now it's time for the the "other" comic universe! 8-)

[s1lence]

I haven't had alot of time to play it but I'll agree that it is a kick ass game. I played a couple hours on CO-OP at its pretty damn cool.

[Chainsaw_Charlie]

My gripe is no Hulk and i bought the ps2 version

What code went with it cause i didnt get it

[Ackman]

The combat and the powers are they any better?

XML2 got a bit boring fer me after a while, the combat in XML2 doesn't hold a candle to the combat or Co op in Dynasty Warriors 4 Hyper although only 2p.

opinion of course.....

I don't really care about graphics xml2 graphics were more than adaquate for this old toger, I hear you can see the nips of certain charas? Is that true?

Hope this helps -Flack

[slip81]

the visuals are really nice on the 360 version, very clean and detailed.

I love it so far though, it'e every bit as fun as the XML games were, and dare I say even a bit better just because of the scope (not just limited to X-Men this time around).

Not many 360 games are worth $60, but I think this one definately is if your a fan of the past games.

[kainemaxwell]

Just got this this morning. This game kicks so much ass!! Definitely a must-get for comic nerds.

[Gamereviewgod]

Hated this one. In multi-player with four players, it's spectacular. Solo or with only one buddy, it's a mess. You don't even play the thing. The AI characters do all the work for you. There should be a mode where you play it alone with a single character. It's hard to get in involved or feel like you're progressing when you stand back and let someone else do the work for you.

[kainemaxwell]

So what's your MUA team? Also, I take it everyone more-or-less levels up equally?

I'm working on a possible team of Deadpool, Captain America, Spidey and possibly Wolverine or Iron Man. Still debating and weighing it out.

[Half Japanese]

So what's your MUA team?

Captain America, Deadpool, Moon Knight and a random fourth (usually Thor...still waiting to unlock that delicious Beta Ray Bill outfit).

[Joker T]

I got this game today, I have yet to try it but co-op looks like a ton of fun.

[Kid Ice]

There should be a mode where you play it alone with a single character.

There are solo missions included but they're "mini-games" that you pick up along the way in the main game.

[Gamereviewgod]

There are solo missions included but they're "mini-games" that you pick up along the way in the main game.

Oh I know. I played them. The entire game should have had this option, or maybe just with one other character. Dealing with three AI characters and outnumbering the enemies in almost every fight is tiring.

[kainemaxwell]

There are solo missions included but they're "mini-games" that you pick up along the way in the main game.
I started getting the comic book missions, only beating Wolverine's so far. They're pretty damn fun!

My time right now consists of Captain America, Spidey, Deadpool and Wolverine.

[Melf]

Question, I bought the 360 version from Gamestop, and it comes with a card that has a code on it to unlock Silver Surfer. However, it doesn't say WHEN or WHERE to enter the code.... Anyone have a clue?

-GAC-

Enter it at the team change screen. Something to note about the codes is that only the Silver Surfer and Daredevil codes are legit. If you use the others, you won't get the achievements for unlocking those characters.

The only problem I've had with this game is that when you have four people online, it craps out a lot. I've had that happen to me about 5 times both hosting and not hosting.

[exit]

My friend rented this for PS2 and we've done allnighters with it a few times, iwe skip all the cutscenes since we could care less about the story, but it's a pretty damn fun game. Our main guys are Wolverine and Ironman, the 3rd usually always Thing and then one radom.

[-hellvin-]

This game is quite amazing. I'm absolutely loving it. Being a huge marvel fan, I love all the characters and worlds they threw in here, great stuff. I've never played the xmen legends games but this title is making me quite intrigued. Right now I'm in Act III and the game keeps getting better. My favorite world was defenitely Arcade's "Murderworld". It was quite hilarious when you had to play Pitfall and Breakout.

My team consists of (Me) Wolverine, Thor, Spider-Man & Ghost Rider. When I unlocked Blade I was really hoping he would say, "Some muthafuckas are always trying to ice skate uphill...."

But he didn't

[Rogmeister]

I have this but haven't got to it yet (I've mostly been playing GC games lately and I have the XBox version of this). When I do play, I'll probably try an all-female team...

[kainemaxwell]

I have this but haven't got to it yet (I've mostly been playing GC games lately and I have the XBox version of this). When I do play, I'll probably try an all-female team...

Make a team then of Ms. Marvel, Storm, Invisible Woman, Elektra, and Spider-Woman. You'll get the "Femme Fatale" team bonus of +5% Damage.

I do have to ask: if you return to a previously finished area (Omega Base, etc) do the enemies return or not?

[-hellvin-]

Yes, they do.

[roxybaby]

The only complaint I have about this game is that in co-op mode I had some dumb deaths because my character got pulled into a death trap of some kind when my buddies walked away from me. Kind of annoying. Overall though I really like it.

[kainemaxwell]

Yes, they do.
Yeah just tried it. You just gotta start a new mission and when you return to Stark's or extract to a previous level they return.

[Chainsaw_Charlie]

is it possible to get Moon Knight and Colossus in the ps2 version

[kainemaxwell]

When you got up to the Atlantis mission where you could start the My Team option, did you do it right away, or wait a few missions to get other characters you wanted?

[kainemaxwell]

.....

[-hellvin-]

That's pretty cool that they added new achievements, that's the second game I've seen taken advantage of that. I'm currently replay that game all over. I kinda screwed myself because I sold Attuma's Wrath and White Ring of Mandarin in my first playthrough and found out later they are VERY essential to beating some of the comic missions with the weaker characters, and getting gold rank with some of the others.

[jcalder8]

Since I've been playing through the game I thought that I would bump this back up. I have to say this game is pretty fun even by myself although I could see the potential for it being a great multiplayer experience.

So far the only real complaint that I have had is when my first play through got corrupted and that is why it has taken me so long to start this one up again.

I'm actually surprised that this one didn't get more interest on here since it's got a bunch of comic book characters and it's actually a good game.

[kaedesdisciple]

This is quite a great game, with only one minor complaint. I've played through the whole thing in single player so I know what's going on. My friends and I were looking for something to play local 4 player, so I figured this would be the ticket. Problem is, this game gets psychotically hard when you have 4 human players going at the same time. The regular enemies aren't much of an issue, but introduce a boss and things get REALLY hairy. My team and I couldn't even get past Crimson Dynamo. Within a few hits, my team and I were all dead. We knew when to hit him & how to hit him, but he was just too strong. We gave up on that game.

[kainemaxwell]

So who's playing MUA2?

[Arcade_Ness]

I was running a new game + on Legendary. I went anti-registration on my first play-through.

[Pantechnicon]

I picked up MUA2 this weekend and am just getting started. I haven't gotten into any of the Civil War stuff yet. Currenly running Captain America, Spider-Man, Iron Man and Daredevil for my team. I loved the first game and so far I think this one is great fun, especially figuring out the numerous fusion attacks.
