Ok, I have to say although the game has improved graphic wise... i'm really not that impressed. I payed $60 for this title because i absolutely loved the Gold Edition on 360 witch in my opinion is better. The character line up is rather disappointing with Songbird, Penance, The Green Goblin, Iron Fist, Gambit, Luke Cage & pretty much

of characters from the first MUA game... there's really nobody that makes a true Marvel fan go nuts (meaning exclusive char that have yet to be playable in a game, nothing new). I felt some Non playable characters were more deserving as playable like Cable, She-Hulk, Firestar, Wonder Man, Spider-Woman, Cloak & Dagger, Colossus etc.

Now i know that everyone has there pics... some people like Gambit & Luke Cage plus others i mentioned but you can't tell me you'd rather play with Remi (seeing as though he's playable in just about every X-men title) over somebody like Wonder Man (whom we never had). The new fusion ability was cool to me at first but then i realized that

of char had the same fusion just a palette swap. This game also has

of glitches... i mean damn it's 2009! For $60, this game is not worth it... seriously! Wait for the DLC & the price to drop before buying. Don't be a fool like me & buy something more deserving like Batman AA... it's crazy because i don't like Batman but his game is really tight.

Should have known this was gonna happen... with Disney taking over Marvel & Vicarious Visions taking the helm over Raven.

I have it. I enjoy it immensely. Luke Cage/Deadpool/Thing/Gambit is my current team.

Cain · « **Reply #3 on:** September 16, 2009, 09:21:30 PM »

So Tenspeed, having just one other costume for each char isn't extremely laim to you... i mean come on, we had a total of 4 in the first game. Not to mention the glitches (The camera / The slowdown) for $60 and no real exclusive characters... well maybe there's acouple (Iron Fist, Songbird, & Penance for the 360). Now i ask you, they couldn't give us three better char then these? She-Hulk & Sentry are exclusive to Nintendo DS (WTF)!

Lord_Waffles · « **Reply #4 on:** September 16, 2009, 10:06:41 PM »

My opinion of the game so far is positive. I have the PS3 version and I really can't complain. Granted I did notice the camera problem when I was fighting the Tinkerer. Also sometimes I lose control of the character for a few seconds every once in awhile. I'm hoping that there will be costume downloads later for the game. I'd really like to see zombie versions of everyone. I'd believe that MUA 2 will have character packs like the first one did. We'll just have to wait and see.

Who seriously wants to play as she hulk? seriously. Having only one alternate costume per character isn't really too bad, as most of the alternate outfits in the first game were terrible. (blade, I'm looking your way.)

The game is no glitchier than the first game, and graphically and musically it's a gigantic leap forward.

They have a smaller roster, perhaps, but each character plays differently enough this time around to make me want to try them all out. In the first game, I pretty much just kept one team through the whole game because people like elektra, spider woman, blade, ect. were incredibly lame.

The fusion attacks are a lot of fun, and some of the new characters gave me hours of enjoyment. Songbird and Green Goblin immediately come to mind.

My only TRUE complaint is that they dumbed down the character customization

.

all in all, I have been enjoying the game, and feel that I got my sixty dollars worth.

you forgot to say something about the wise cracks that deadpool and spidey keep doing

i keep playing and it just gets funner... but the cherry tree's shouldn't have been destroyed

Lord_Waffles · « **Reply #9 on:** September 19, 2009, 07:59:33 AM »

Just beat the game and all I'm gonna say is just wait till the credits role.
You'll see what I mean

I love this game , 2 thunmbs up

I didn't expect anything more from this. Actually it was more than I expected because they did drastically improve the graphics.

Cain · « **Reply #11 on:** September 19, 2009, 02:53:41 PM »

Maybe i expected too much out of this title and ultimately it let me down... being a hardcore Marvel fan from the Stan Lee / Jack Kirby / John Byrne / Chris Claremont / Dave Cockrum / Whilce Porticio / Marc Silvestri / Jim Lee era's i've been told that i live in the past. I can't help but feel that if it's focused around the 60's thru the late 80's era, it's great stuff. Other wise, late 90's to now is a great disappointment to me.

I know the kids of today love Deadpool (1991) & other characters like Gambit (1990) but to me it was late in the comic book scene when they made there debuts... So, i'm not really a big fan of either character. Now, don't get me wrong... I love all thats Marvel period but i sure hope they put acouple more old school char & nic nak's as DLC for us big kids.

And Tenspeed, I love She-Hulk... Bruce Banners sassy, strong but sexy cousin (1980). The female Hulk truly is BAD A**!!! $\-/o$

Tenspeed · « **Reply #12 on:** September 19, 2009, 10:09:04 PM »

I have never read anythign she hulk related that entertained me, and honestly I just htink the whole "we have a successful super hero, now lets try to sell the same hero as a female" thing is stupid.

the game takes place during the recent civil war arc. of course it would have more recent heroes in it over others.

Hien · « **Reply #13 on:** September 20, 2009, 08:17:37 PM »

The Roster could have been

bigger, instead of them bein lazy and keeping the same characters from the MUA

Characters that should have been in the game
Falcon
Giant Man
Ant Man
Beast
Cloak
And SOOOO MUCH MORE

One thing that could have possibly made it better having the ability to battle other people as a Online gameplay option

Hulk/DeadPool/Venom/Wolverine/ <--- My TEAM so far

I've only played the PS3 so my answer is no to both.

No cable isn't playable. You actually fight him if you choose Ironman's side

Megabyte · « **Reply #19 on:** September 24, 2009, 01:16:26 PM »

All of us X-Men fans should be thankful we got who we got from their stable as they were NEUTRAL in Civil War...as goes quite a few chars in the game...I have the 360 version, am a HUGE Marvel fan (though I mainly stick to the stuff from the 90's onward...I do read back issues from the pre-90's era from time to time), Gambit is my fave X-man, and I too wish that they would have made a bigger roster. But in no way would I say that I didn't get my $60 worth...for what we DID get with the initial release was quite sufficient for $60...and I too know to look forward to a good amount of DLC for this game in the near future. Though I am surprised about Sentry and She-Hulk as playable on the DS o_O? I REALLY hate the DS and Nintendo for a LOT of their exclusive titles that deserve (and in a lot of ways would work out better on) a console system...and I mean a console OTHER than the Wii...now please keep in mine, mrcain, that this was in no way meant to be offensive...just my way of saying that everyone has different opinions and we should just agree that in that respect no one is right or wrong.

Hate mac gargan venom.

Cain · « **Reply #22 on:** September 25, 2009, 06:35:26 PM »

No offence takin' Megabyte & your right... I just hope the DLC changes my view on

of issues i have with this game. I just expected more for $60 & 3+ years of development.

PLEASE GOD!!! As DLC let there be:

Firestar
Wonder Man
She-Hulk (Somehow she isn't just for DS)
Colossus
Juggernaut (Without the pre-order garbage)
Dr. Doom
Electro
Cable
&
Some type of camera patch

MAN!!! Would that change my view...

Gambit is one of my personal favorites from the marvel universe because he is from my city. Not every city has a football team yet along a Marvel superhero that is from that city, then to top it off I like his powers He can turn anything he touches into a bomb. Just like Crimson from Full-metal Alchemist

Tenspeed · « **Reply #24 on:** September 29, 2009, 12:30:41 AM »

I'm on my third playthrough right now, trying to get everything one hundred percent. I have almost all of the heroic deeds completed and only need gold on two more sim discs. all my guys are maxed out and are at level 60.

having a lot of fun with Cap/Songbird/Gambit/Iron Fist at the moment. Venom and Penance seem near useless unless you get REALLY innovative and play the characters in a way that they weren't meant to be played. Robofury is the next coming of jesus. I've seen the guy single handedly pull my team through difficult fights later in teh game on the legendary difficulty. Cap and Iceman seem to be boss killers with the way I have my boosts set up or something.

Post Merge: September 29, 2009, 12:31:54 AM

DLC was announced BTW. A pro-reg pack and an anti-reg pack. four guys each. I can't remember the specifics, but I know cable and warmachine were among them.
