Evil Avatar is reporting that Activision is poised to launch a few expansions for the Xbox 360 version of Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Eight new characters will be available in two separate packs at 500 Marketplace Points each. The Hero pack will contain the Incredible Hulk, Hawkeye, Cyclops and Nightcrawler while the Villain pack will have Magneto, Sabretooth, Doctor Doom, and Venom. While 500 points for each pack may seem a bit high, if you purchase them together you get them for a total of 800 points.
I knew I should have purchased this game instead of sending it back to GameFly when I was finished.
YOU DON’T OWN THIS GAME?! WHY NOT?! Man, I was thoroughly impressed with how much Raven had improved on the formula they started with X-Men Legends and helped improve with X-Men Legends II. The Alchemy engine makes for a gorgeous looking game, and the character selection is so vast and well varied…I mean, come the fuck on, THEY HAVE MOON KNIGHT!!! M-O-O-N K-N-I-G-H-T!!! Sadly, they also have Ghost Rider, who is probably one of the lamest and most lacking characters in the Marvel universe…but it’s okay…you have to have your sell-out “bad ass”.
I will say, though, that I was surprised that they never put all but two of these new additions into the core game itself!!! I mean, IT’S SABRETOOTH!!! IT’S MAGNETO!!! Yeah, sure, it’s Venom…and personally, I’d rather have Sandman or Doc Ock or hell, you could probably make Shocker cool FINALLY…or even Cardiac!!! LOL Plus, IT’S CYCLOPS AND NIGHTCRAWLER!!! IT’S THE BIG GREEN MACHINE!!!!!!!!!!!!111!!1!!!!!!
My head just exploded from the awesomeness…even if I do think that Hulk will just be a clone of The Thing in the game…
I don’t own the game because I had it via GameFly for about three weeks and finished it up. It was fun, but a little too long for me to play through it again with different characters.
