Marvel Ultimate Alliance is a feature-packed game; one of those rare birds that feels like arcade gaming, but with that next-gen edge that helps to justify $400+ dollars of hardware. It has a few glitches here and there, but the core gameplay is solid and quite entertaining for those that need a little RPG in their action game, or vice-versa. Pick this one up if you favor the Marvel camp (the character selection is excellent), or are just looking for a solid co-op style adventure for you and/or your friends to play.
Whether due to publisher deals gone sour, licenses expiring, feuds between developer and publisher and other reasons entirely, there’s a wide range of games that you just can’t buy digitally anymore.

Torrents are there. I actually have the original CD's from NOLF 2, never going to part with them.😁

While i have a disc with the game, i was able to find it on a torrent ru tracker with at least 3 people seeding right now and it was downloaded 450+ times.
I wouldn't send a link (so i wouldn't get banned). But, i think, torrent or P2P are probably the last mostly reliable way to find old games no one cares about. I was able to find «Fable» there. Not the Lionhearts' Fable, but very old point-n-click adventure.
I still have my PS3 copy of Spec Ops, Battlefield Bad Company 1&2 & Marvel Ultimate Alliance 1/2.
Planning to replay those and a few others, but the controls feel so loose now compared to modern games.
Change the title to: Amazing Games That Have Been Abandoned by Stupid Publishers Who Don't Care About their Legacy, so You Should Pirate and Enjoy them.
Okay, maybe that title was a bit too long. 😅
I missed out on the chance to buy BFBC1 on Xbox and I just want to kick myself silly. One of the best PS3 experience of my life. The feeling, impact, sound design of this game was leagues better than BF games that followed
Activision and Raven Software's 2006 action role-playing game, Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, has found its way to the Xbox Store.
Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem
I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.
Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.
I thought it looked awful, but I actually fell in love with it. To this day one of my favorites on the Switch.
Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.
Yeah I'm kind of miffed about that headline. But the information in the article does give me a little hope. I really want to play these games on the PS5! I would assume if Activision actually is planning on relisting them on the Xbox Store, it would be relisting them on the PS Store as well?
Remember the days of four-player couch co-op? The Wealth of Geeks team certainly does. This list brings us back to the golden years of the original Xbox with the best four-player games that were available.
I've been seeing the TV add for this one and it looks surprisingly good. Maybe it can reedem all of the crappy super hero games of the past.
Bought this yesterday. It is fun, especially the multiplayer, but there are obvious flaws with the design. This review seems very biased in favor of the game. Things to consider:
1. Co-op over live is 1 person per system. Also, all 4 players are on 1 screen and must stay together on 1 screen, no wandering allowed. Camera angle in online co-op appears to be controlled by everyone (using the same view for everyone as well) so it could lead to some people messing with it and annoying the rest.
2. Some lag and slow down in multiplayer. Had at one point, a lag pause for nearly 15 seconds. It only happened once, and it was never enough to make us stop playing, but it is there.
3. Non-boss fights are repetitive. Boss fights are nice because they involved more than just button mashing.
Overall its a fun game if you've got a group of people to play it with and if you like the super hero genre. Lots of replayability options with this one. Nice achievements, lots of secret achievements.
Go out and buy this today! 1 player per console just sucks though, and that you can't wander off really limits the environment! Never the less um still a fan of Xmen legends 1 and 2, so um going to play this online! Anyone want to play with me (um topgamer!) my gamertag is sumtynnaztee!
You don't need live to play co-op...
Anybody who played the Legends games will instantly recognize it, much as Morrowind players recognize Oblivion.
Its updated with improved graphics and tweaked leveling but the gameplay is basically unchanged.
The opening movie in available on marketplace if anybody wants to watch it.
Really good.
There is also a Nightcrawler cutscene with the elf doing his stuff in style.
I'll play with you when I can get my damn son off of it. I bought it today and he has been on it. Its parent teacher conference week so he is out of school. But, yeah. I will look you up and play sometime. I haven't tried it but it looks super fun. Him and his friend have been playing together on the same screen for hours now.
