First Impressions: Marvel Ultimate Alliance on PS4 – Nothing Marvellous

Chris of Pure PlayStation: All I can say to those who are wondering whether it's worth buying is that you should set your expectations to the usual "Activision Remaster" level, or maybe wait for a price drop because at £44.99 for both games, I do feel a tad short-changed by what I've got. Probably should have waited for a review copy to arrive...

Its a straight port from the old systems frankly what a deception! Cash graber from Activision again.

CorndogBurglar3198d ago

It isnt a straight port, it has slight graphical upgrades. Are they worth it? No probably not lol.

Gman323198d ago

I hear you just another cash graber like with all the rest

Guitardr853198d ago

I was actually surprised when I saw this on the PSN yesterday. My first thought was, "Why did they port an almost 10 year old game?"

SP4CE_C4PT4IN3198d ago

I've never played the original games so I was excited to have another co op game to play with my girlfriend but having seen the prices I'm really turned off.

Without being a smart asses, can anyone recommend a price point that would be considered worth it for these games?

FullmetalRoyale3198d ago

Considering their age, and utter lack of value or incentive provided my Activision, I'd recommend around fifteen bucks. I remember them being fun, but not quite bend over for it fun.

SP4CE_C4PT4IN3197d ago

Thank you! I will most likely hold off until it's on a steep discount.

Amazing Games You Can't Buy Anymore

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.😁

Cacabunga57d ago

3D Dot Game heroes. Good luck

__y2jb57d ago

I have this. Never even realised it had become rare.

staticall57d ago

@Cacabunga
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.

Need NOLF Remaster from Nightdive.

PRIMORDUS57d ago

NOLF 1+2 remaster for me = instant buy

Abnor_Mal58d ago

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.

Chocoburger58d ago

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. 😅

NotoriousWhiz57d ago

Amazing abandoned games that you should ARRRR.

DafunkyRebel58d ago

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

TorpeAlex57d ago

Pour one out for Transformers Devastation

isarai57d ago

I lost my physical copy in a move, it still bothers me to this day 😅😔

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

RavenWolfx375d ago

Yeah, I loved the Legends games so much.

ZeekQuattro375d ago

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.

Knightofelemia375d ago (Edited 375d ago )

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.

Terry_B375d ago

It got a sequel..but for dumbass #reasons as a switch exclusive.

shinoff2183375d ago

It looked so horrible to. They should've kept it similar to the first two.

Asplundh375d ago

Because Nintendo funded it, they did the same for Bayonetta.

Knightofelemia375d ago

I totally forgot about the Switch sequel.

MasterChief3624374d ago

I thought it looked awful, but I actually fell in love with it. To this day one of my favorites on the Switch.

jukins375d ago

Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.

MasterChief3624374d ago

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?

Abnor_Mal375d ago

The first game was the best imo.
