"It trades its predecessor's goofy fan-service enthusiasm for something approaching relevance and seriousness, but MUA2 still packs a superhero punch."

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2

Having played all the RPG games created by Marvel and Activision , the team has come a long way since X-Men Legends . In this game, Activision tries their hardest to perfect their engine and make a ga… Read more

Great game hampered by performance issues...

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 on the PSP is a prime example of why one should alway survey the environment before jumping in. For example, why the game has 0 reviews on Giantbomb.com, or perhaps why the… Read more

It nails absolutely nothing but manages to still be engaging.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance, a 2006 game that flew under the radar but ultimately succeeded for raising the bar for future cooperative action-RPGs. Unfortunately its successor, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2… Read more

Deadpool!!! Now what?

So, in short, WIN. This is a great beat em up, its long enough to be a game, but short enough not to get too bored. I liked the story, loved my choice of characters, however thin it was. Most achievem… Read more

The Ultimate Alliance: Torn Apart!

Note: Would post pictures with silly captions but it's being a a freakin' twat about it so can't =/ Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 is the sequel to the hit All-Platform (practically) Marvel Ultimate Allia… Read more

Not quite Marvel Ultimate Alliance

I was intrigued by the box of Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 when in EB games, because like most first and second generation Xbox 360 users it came with the system. I thoroughly enjoyed it and could have… Read more

Civil War....kinda

I was a pretty big fan of the Civil War storyline in Marvel Comics, and it was generally very well-received for helping to solidify Marvel as publisher willing to assert itself in some relevant and me… Read more

Pretty Disappointing

If you never played the first MUA...or X-Men Legends...or X-Men Legends II, this is a hack-and-slash dungeon crawler where you take a group of 4 Marvel superheroes through a series of levels, killing… Read more

Lets get POLITICAL!

Marvel: Ultimate Alliance was released in Fall 2006 and developed by Raven Software. What it did well was mix the arcade style beat-em-up gameplay with a simple-yet-effective RPG levelling system. Tak… Read more

Marvel Average Alliance?

Ok, I'm rewriting this review because after an extended period of time with this game, I've come to realise just how bland it really is. Firstly, this game's levels aren't as adventurous as the last o… Read more

Can't live up to the original, but still provides plenty of fun.

It was around this time in 2006 when the original Marvel Ultimate Alliance was released, and at the time it was perhaps one of the finest examples of mindless action-RPG fun and shameless fan service… Read more

Prolific Review 001 - Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2

Storyline Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2 is the sequel to the original Ultimate Alliance which was released in 2006. The story is roughly based upon the Civil War and Secret War comic events. After a lar… Read more

It's Spandex Time!

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 will obviously feel familiar to fans of the first, but there are noticeable differences. First of all, the graphics are crisper and shinier than ever, and coupled with the m… Read more

Marvel Comic Geeks REJOICE!!!

If you love Marvel Comics and you play video games then chances are you played the first MUA and probebly even bought the hero/villian character pack(if you own the 360 version that is). MUA 2 brings… Read more

Since most of you know it, I'll skip the Story explanation

We can all agree with one thing, Marvel heroes rock! Sure, this game doesn't topple any records or cross any boundaries but it does find a way to glue you to your couch. The first MUA was the game of… Read more

It's Mahvell, Baby!

It's almost inconceivable that someone who owned a 360 didn't have the first Marvel Ultimate Alliance. It was packaged with the system, along with Forza, during the 360's hay day and was sold at most… Read more

I Pledge alligiance to the flag...

A little while back, a pre-Mickey Mouse Marvel Comics made a bit of noise with the Civil War storyline that pitted heroes against heroes over government legislation. It was intriguing in its parlaying… Read more

Better Than the First

So many new innovations make this game superior to the original. The script and story are surprisingly good, the amount of characters both good and bad is astounding, and the fusion system makes me wo… Read more
