Marvel: Ultimate Alliance Discussion (spoilers).

You know what we need? More cross-promotional pimping. We have Marvel video games and Marvel movies raking in big sales, but it really doesn't help comic book sales.

How tough would it be to cross-promote with expansions for a game like this? Throw in some new costumes and a couple mission scenarios for Civil War. Make a Thunderbolts expansion to coincide with the creative change in the book. Pimp projects in other media in ways that will actually benefit the comics they're derived from! Maybe even throw in a rebate on the expansion for people who pick up the comic book it's linked to.

bah.... I might get this when I get a 360 anyway, though.

they should do what a batman game did on ps2.

give you an official comic free with it. a launch of a mini series then you need to buy comics to get issues 2 - what ever it goes up to based on games story
 
I have no knowledge of this game. Anyone want to tell me how it works and what you do in it?
 
Yeah, like X-Men Legends... except less special moves, and the passives you get depend on the costume you wear, and most of the x-tremes are the same, and there are no more health or energy packs, and you can't adjust stats.
 
It's an action RPG.


Kind of like Kingdom hearts but with marvel people and real time/ beat 'em up combat and good

This character expantion is cool but doesn't it seem a little late?

I'm sure there are people out there who have yet to play this game, and many who haven't beat it yet, it just seems to me that these things should comes out earlier when there is more hype surrounding the game.

At least release extra levels as well to get people playing again.
 
Hey, does anyone with a 360 know who to talk to to get the Sabretooth achievment? It's supposed to be the one where they mistake him for Wolverine.

Her you go , Taken from the faq for achievement points.

Sabretooth has been mistaken for Wolverine (20)

I had know idea where this one was going to happen. The other achievements
could be figured out ahead of time. Gladiator mistakes Sabretooth for Wolverine.
I kept him in my party throughout most of the game and finally someone made
this unfortunate mistake. Sabretooth, needless to say, was not too pleased
about the error.

Hope this helps bro
 
Well I got a Wii a few weeks ago, and this was one of the games I got for it. Right now I'm playing the disc missions, I have to replay Spider-Woman and Black Panther so I can get the rest of their costumes, and all I have left before the Silver Surfer is unlocked is Thor's mission. But I'm having so much trouble with it.
 
Bought this along with another wired controller for 360 the other day after many months of convincing myself that it would be too heavy an investment. Anyway, I had heard lukewarm reports of the game from these boards, but right now, I'm loving it! It's badass being able to make your own team or just play with one of the established teams already. I mean, if you want, it can just be a Fantastic Four game, etc.

Right now, I'm in the Asgard levels with my team of Cap, Iron Man, Iceman and Torch (The Champions).
 
Can anyone explain to me how to toggle between teams?

I can't seem to change my team's name or logo. I can replace members and stuff like that, but the name and logo can't be changed for some reason, even when I start a new game with the same stats. Do I have to start a completely new save file just to make a new team? Doesn't that mean I'll miss out on all my unlocked characters?

Ugh, this shouldn't be so hard...
