Soulful Gamer review Mon, 05 Oct 2009

An excellent first half of impressive cut-scenes and involving story can't help Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 fall back into mediocrity once the final credits rolled. Although I enjoyed the setup for the Marvel Civil War storyline, the shallow characters and repetitive gameplay meant I was bored long before the game rolled over and spat out a woeful ending.

Comic books and superhero characters have long held little sway for me in my quest for deep storylines and exciting narratives. Recently though I've fallen into the world of Marvel and DC through the excellent Batman: Arkham Asylum and a brief dalliance with X-Men Origins: Wolverine. As such I approached Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 interested to experience more of this new (to me) world of Captain America, Iron Man, Nick Fury etc.

Frugal Gamer review Wed, 30 Sep 2009

Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2 brings its outsized ensemble cast of super heroes back to the small screen. Proceedings are inspired by the acclaimed Marvel civil war storyline, Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2 sets the stage for this epic story to be played out by an impressive range of super hero characters. Players cherry-pick their dream team from over 24 playable heroes and villains, each with specialized powers. This crack team then battles their way through the war torn landscapes in true super hero style. Players, assemble!

Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2 pulls off the same trick as Batman: Arkam Asylum - it really makes you feel like a super hero. More than the impressive roster, destructible environments and levelling up, this is a game about being feeling bad-ass. Special moves, great costumes and not a little bit of monologuing combine to make this the full deal when it comes to saving humanity from disaster.
