Marvel Ultimate Alliance

[Melf]

The game is alittle too long for me... maybe 1 level too long. Some of the boss fights were pretty cool (kinda like QTEs).

It's not really that long when your heroes are powered up. I have the Avengers and FF at levels 60+ and even hard is no problem for me. Well, that is until I got to Loki. I'm stuck there now because his damn energy syphon kills EVERYONE at once. I'm not sure if you can block it, and I don't know if I want to spend hours level grinding just for him. I should though, since there's only the Skrull homeworld and Doomstadt left to finish after him.

You know I'm up for it. Shoot me an invite.

Will do! How about we start over on hard? Normal was way to easy for us the last time, and my Captain America is a GOD now.

What's this game going for? I've been waiting for it to hit 30 bucks for a while now.....

Buy it; you won't regret it. It's the best dungeon crawler I've played on consoles, and the sheer amount of gameplay here is enough to keep you enthralled for weeks. I'm going through all the simulation mission (got all gold so far), and I haven't even scratched the surface of the multi-player mode.

I tried playingthis 2 player co-op. Couldn't get into it. TBH I amhaving more fun with it in single player (but it's still not that much fun...no items kind of take away from this genre)

Have you tried the arcade mode? It's only you and one other player going through each mission, and it tallies kills and points at the end of each to see who won.

I picked it up a little while ago. The game's a lot of fun, and I love how many Marvel characters they managed to include. I need to look up a FAQ to find out where all the training missions are.

Deadpool rules, BTW. Between his machine gun attack and his ability to teleport he kicks a lot of ass.

There are a few FAQs that guide you through the game, and I recommend using one. There are so many focus/strike/body upgrades, comic art. simulator discs, and skill points scattered around that you'd definitely miss a bunch going at it solo.

At least the game lets you review how many of each you've picked up per act.

Is the Wii version of this any good? I think I'd rather get the 360 version, except I don't have a 360 yet.

I picked up a raincheck for the 360 version at Target ($39, cant beat that) so hopefully next payday I will have this, heard nothing but good things on this one.

re: Melf

I just noticed your "achievement whore" description. LOL. =)

[g0zen]

I've got it as well, so if you guys do decide to go for that three player shit holla at cha boy.

Let's set it up. I should be good on Monday @ 10:00 EST. LMK if that works for you guys.

I'm down. I got the Gold Simulator Mission achievement, and I unlocked the Silver Surfer. Now I'm only 8 costumes away from that last single-player achievement. The rest is multi-player.

Shit, Korly needs to get in on this. He asked me to play online when I first got the game, and I didn't know you could play the campaign that way. With him we'd have a full team.

Monday at 10 EST is good for me.
