But the game itself wasn’t a genre-defining masterpiece like Arkham was. I loved the original Marvel Ultimate Alliance, the game was like playing through a living comic book. Packed along with all the additional content, it more than speaks for itself in value. Sure it’s just a slightly enhanced graphical version of the games, but it didn’t need to be anything more. It makes the high price point that much steeper.Ĭompare it to the Batman Arkham collection coming from WB Games. The fact is the game was developed back in the PlayStation 2 era, in gaming time that might as well be 20 years ago. With the exception of online multiplayer and some upgraded visuals, these ports don’t seem to have any newly added content.
Marvel Ultimate Alliance and Ultimate Alliance 2’s current generation ports will run you $40 each or you can pick up the bundle for $60. If you want to relive this decade old nostalgia, it won’t come cheap. While the game’s sequel Ultimate Alliance 2 received lukewarm reviews, the original Marvel Ultimate Alliance was one of Marvel’s last great game efforts before the subsequent drought of Marvel gaming ( the exception being Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions). First released in 2006, the Ultimate Alliance games allowed fans to choose four of their favorite characters from the Marvel Universe to team up in a battle to save the world from Doctor Doom.
