The Bottom Line:
Marvel Ultimate Alliance is sort of an action RPG. In the game you play as a team of 4 super heroes ranging from Spider-Man to Ms. Marvel. Yes, some are more obscure than others. There originally was a Heroes and Villians pack available as DLC, but has supposedly been pulled. If you want the complete experience go with the Gold Edition. The game really seems to be middling in every way.
Grade: C
What to Expect:
* Beating up a stream of enemies (mostly robots of some type)
* Leveling up - can set to auto
* Collectibles to find: Comic Discs (unlock missions for hero skins), Action Figures (unlock Daredevil or Black Panther) and Sketch Books (concept art)
* QTE (Quick Time Events) - basically button pressing at specific times. The most annoying of these are the comic book missions for Storm and Spider-Man.
* A bunch of heros to play as. Some seem eerily similar to others though (especially the DLC ones). i think it is 33 with the DLC.
* Defeating enemies can unlock additional skins for the characters
* Combat system - light attack, heavy attack, x is grab (for throws), the triggers can be used to launch a power (it and the corresponding face button) and select tactic.
* Some boss fights
My Play:
Difficulty: Easy
Time: 20-30 hours (with almost everything)
Achievements: 46/58 (1030/1,)250
Achievments:
Achievements in this game are for things like unlocking all available character skins (especially DLC), Throwing X people off ledges, defeating X enemies, story events, unlocking playable characters, answering trivia questions, etc. Unfortunately, there are also some for playing co-op. Some are more of a chore than others.
