My Marvel - Ultimate Alliance Review

In Marvel: UA, you play a cast of super heroes trying to stop Dr. Doom and his team "Master of Evil" from trying to take over the world. The game hits all spectrums of the comic book world, giving you plenty of characters to choose from: Spiderman, Wolverine, Deadpool, Captain America, Blade and many more. Recently, downloadable content was release for you to be able to play as some villians as well, including the infamous Venom. You can play by yourself you with three teammates, and these teammate can either be bots or human players. Think of this game as a super advance type of Gauntlet.

Each character has a host of special moves, and better yet, when used at the same time as another character, the moves combine and have special effects. The graphics aren't mind-blowing, but they portray what it needs to with all the characters moves. You are able to upgrade moves to make them stronger or to have longer lasting effects. Most of the characters are well-balance, minus the very few that are a little too overpowered....Wolverine for example.

For a game that comes free with some of the 360 consoles, this game is great fun. If you talk to everyone in the game and do all sidequests and subplots, and collect all comic books, this game does well in longevity. I definately recommend this game, even if its just for a rent.
