Review: Marvel Ultimate Alliance Double Pack – PS4 | Pure PlayStation

Chris of Pure PlayStation: If you’re desperate to join up with Iron Man, Captain America, and the rest of the super-squad, I’d recommend waiting for these to drop down to a reasonable price because, despite being solid games in the gameplay department, they just don’t deserve to be bought at the current market price. The re-releases were made with one purpose in mind: capitalise on the popularity of Marvel. Nothing more, nothing less. Fans be damned, Activision just wanted to make a quick buck. I’m sorry to say they’ve got more of mine than I’d have liked.

Sometimes the price for a game, especially older ones should play a role in the review score. Especially if the reviewer himself recommends to wait until a game is cheaper.

Activision and Marvel released this for a hilarious high price without even adding all dlc of the past.

chrish19903192d ago

Yeah, normally I try not to bring pricing into reviews and use look at it as the end product, but in this case the cost of the has to be a part of the critique. Maybe £15 a pop/£30 bundle would have been more palatable.

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.😁

3D Dot Game heroes. Good luck

__y2jb53d ago

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

@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.

PRIMORDUS53d ago

NOLF 1+2 remaster for me = instant buy

Abnor_Mal54d 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.

Chocoburger54d 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. 😅

NotoriousWhiz53d ago

Amazing abandoned games that you should ARRRR.

DafunkyRebel54d 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

TorpeAlex53d ago

Pour one out for Transformers Devastation

isarai53d 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

RavenWolfx371d ago

Yeah, I loved the Legends games so much.

ZeekQuattro371d 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.

Knightofelemia371d ago (Edited 371d 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_B371d ago

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

shinoff2183371d ago

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

Asplundh371d ago

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

Knightofelemia371d ago

I totally forgot about the Switch sequel.

MasterChief3624370d ago

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.

MasterChief3624370d 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_Mal371d ago

The first game was the best imo.
