Marvel: Ultimate Alliance - Superhero Smackdown Basics
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance puts you in control of a four-person team of
super-powered heroes so you can do battle with the big bad boss of
Latveria. You start off with
Captain America,
Spider-Man,
Wolverine and
Thor on your side, but get more heroes like
Daredevil,
Ghost Rider,
Elektra,
The Thing and
Iron man as you play.
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance - Villain Busting Goodness!
With over
20 heroes to control, (nearly 50 villians and a dozen more characters in the PC,
PSP,
PS3,
Xbox 360 and
Wii versions),
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance is packed with
comic book characters! You can power them up,
unlock costumes, play
four-player multiplayer and even
play online. There are also
bonus videos, levels, characters and more.
If that's not enough, the action is awesome with a story that's actually cool and there are wicked battles against some massive villains - like the world-eating Galactus! Lots of character voices were also done by the celebrity actors who play them in the movies. Check out this list of superheroes to see who you can control in Marvel: Ultimate Alliance.

Marvel: Ultimate Alliance - Spandex-Clad Lameness
The biggest bummer in Marvel: Ultimate Alliance is that some of the
voice acting is weak - like
Spider-Man who sounds like an
old fogey! Everybody also looks kind of
shiny, like they're made of
plastic. It's not bad with
Iron Man, but makes
Wolverine look freaky.
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance - Super or Pooper?
It's absolutely
awesome. Tons of
heroes,
villains,
adventure,
action and stuff to
unlock all wrapped up in a cool storyline. If you like
comics, or even if you don't, grab this game and get ready for hours of incredible superhero adventure.
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance Thumbs Up:
Control over 20 of the greatest heroes ever!
Power-up your heroes automatically, or customize them!
Huge villains *cough* Galactus *cough* and massive boss battles.
Four-player multiplayer action.
Online modes.
Unlock tons of power-ups, costumes and moves.
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance Thumbs Down:
Some weird voice acting.
Everybody looks plastic!
