It depends on how graphic we're talking. If the pic Hippie_Hunter posted is the worst, I don't see what the big deal is.

The creators of comics accept that most comic book readers are in their 20s. Kids don't buy Ultimates.

Well if they are the same characters then it is just the 616 universe out of contunity. The Ultimate Universe is not the 616 universe. They are different people.


I think Colossus being gay adds something to a, IMO, bland character. I also think Ultimate Nick Fury is better than 616 Fury.

Characterization wise? Yes.

Storywise? No. It would be boring that way to read story rehashes.

Ultimate Marvel should have been a way to reintroduce the Marvel Universe in a new set of continuity not bogged down by 60+ years of comics. But over all give the same feel of the characters we read in the normal 616 comics.

Ultimate Deadpool is not Deadpool

Ultimate Gwen Stacy is not Gwen Stacy

The Hulk should be a being of pure, raw rage. Not one of pure raw rage that gets into orgies and eats people.

Ultimate Nick Fury should look like Nick Fury.

Ultimate Quicksilver should not look like a person who is going to bang his sister. Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch are close, but not THAT close.

Ultimate Thor's godlyhood should not be questioned

Ultimate Colossus should be with Ultimate Shadowcat, not Ultimate Northstar.

Ultimate Namor should be a man of royalty, not a criminal

Changes like that makes the characters feel like completely different characters, not the characters that have been around for years.

But they are different characters, they aren't the same ones from the 616 universe. If you want to read about the characters from the 616 universe, you can do so in the non Ultimate Marvel comics. Frankly what's the ultimate Universe if all the characters are exactly the same, there will be different stories, so what, what's to prevent these stories from being told in the 616 universe? What 's the difference if all characters are exactly the same? How would the stories of the Ultimate Universe be truly different from the 616 stories if the characters are exactly the same in both universes?

I wanna bring up my post from the previous page because it wasn't really answered.

The concept of Ultimate Alliance seems cool. Pick from 20 plus playable Marvel heroes to make your dream team in an action RPG. Yeah, on paper it sounds awesome. And a crap load of super villains too.

But have they corrected the faults of X-Men: Legends? That's what I want to know. Pretty big faults, like peoples powers being too similar. Attacks being too similar. The only difference between certain characters was their costume, that kind of thing. Gambit, Psylocke, etc. I don't think they had enough unique about them, or had strenghts and weaknesses to make a well balanced team. The characters themselves were too balanced, or something. Know what I mean? There were other faults too, like gameplay problems, and boring levels.

I won't buy Ultimate Alliance if they haven't went above and beyond to improve gameplay.

Thing is 616 Thor's godhood is questioned. The general public feels he and Hercules are nutjobs for saying they are gods. 616 Cap said he didn't think that Thor was a god either. Until he saw Asgard, met Odin, etc, etc. 616 Namor was a criminal (terrorist technically but that term wasn't really applied in the 40's). Hulk is supposed to be a monster. Ultimate Hulk is more of a monster than 616 Hulk.

Yes, yes. All of that is true. I have to say, the graphics of Ultimate Alliance don't exactly look next gen to me. However, that won't matter if they make it a fun game and correct the faults of XML. Will they do that? If they can go the extra mile to make this game as good as it can be I'll buy it.

I'm tired of people ripping on the graphics.

Of course it doesnt look next gen. It's NOT next gen. It's a multi console port. That said, it's a very nice looking port, and if you compare all the versions, the 360 version is head and shoulders above the rest.


Gammy, I love you because you love everyone, but dont listen to hippy hunter....that picture is nowhere near as bad as he makes it out to be. Basically in an effort to control the hulk after killing about three thousand people in NY, he goes to tibet to get hulk under control, and thats where wolverine finds a relativly calm hulk, who invites him for tea. we dont know what happens next because the writer, some guy off lost, is too busy on that crappy, overrated show to get his issues done.

Yes, I think that would be far better than Ultimate Alliance. With the power of next gen consoles, there is no reason why they couldn't make a game like Spider-Man the movie game, except in 616 land and with a huge selection of characters and areas.

That would be far better. Imagine huge superhero battles in New York city, while you're, say, Thor, flying about the place.

I'm thinking of getting that too. But not the hardcover. Hardcovers are for suckers who like to grease up their little cornholes for the publishers.:down But even you gotta admit that Ultimate Hulk raping people to death then eating them is much more monstrous than the giant green emo that 616 Hulk can be.

ye exactly!, how unbelievably awesome would an open world sandbox game such as spider-man with all the marvel characters, you perhaps pick your first character, and than explore new york freely and whenever you need help you can go to any landmark where you would find another hero, recruit him, or even perhaps having to convince them that you need their help and than you go off on the mission and can change between your group at will

I think we'll see a game like this down the line. At the very least, they can at least make the perfect Spider-Man game after they make the 3rd Spidey movie game. The perfect Spider-Man game - flashbacks of classic battles, destructable environment, the biggest rogues gallery ever seen in a Spidey game, superhero cameos a plenty, fighting the Sinister 6, maybe later in the game teaming up with heroes to fight the Sinister 12, a large main game story that involves all of Spidey's main villains, fighting Morlun, fighting the Hulk, etc etc etc etc.

With next gen power, they have no reason NOT to make the perfect Spidey game.

It's probably like the first two Legends games. You have have up to 4 characters in your Team, but you can also only have 3, 2 or play just all by yourself.

Shadowcat is a trained fighter. She's been trained by Wolverine. But she hasn't got alot of strength. However, she can phase inside of people and do major damage that way. It would be cool seeing her do cool moves like sinking into the ground and grabbing enemies by the feet.

but you won't have infinite energy, so she'd become useless when she runs out, at least wolverine and cyclops are tough and well trained(altho cyclops sucks soooo much balls!

Mister J
09-30-2006, 04:50 PM
Most (if not all) of the characters would be useless when they run out of energy. The game won't let you won't get far by just punching and kicking (non-powered wise). You'll need the energy attacks. Shadowcat is highly trained in hand-to-hand and her power attacks would be something we haven't seen before.

Characters that are primarily melee attack types would have an edge, but it'd still be a pretty uphill fight (and next to impossible in some scenarios) without a healthy use of powers. I found that out the hard way on XML.

That's more realistic. It would seem that a character should always have the ability to use a certain attack, but it wouldn't always be as potent. I guess designing it the way they have in most games just makes it easier on the game makers. Maybe they'll surprise us, but I doubt it.

Wolverine did become ridiculously powerful after a point. Toss in a sufficiently leveled healing factor and you really couldn't go wrong.

shadowcat cant be put in the game because if they gave a character with the ability to phase through walls there would be nothing stopping her from phasing through every wall in the game.night crawler is a different story because his powers can be manipulated into not being able to be used in some areas.shodowcat however cant be restrained by the same means.even if she was able to be put in the game,people would just phase all the way to the boss anyway....thats probably why nightcrawler isnt playable in this game.people were ruining the gaming experience by taking too many shortcuts.

I'm really looking foward to this game.

The only problem I have so far is that alot of the villains in the previews look crappy. There's only a few good ones.

I wanted Magneto, Kang, Thanos, Electro, Morlun, Sandman, Venom, Juggernaut, and Sentinels to be in it.

Depends on what exactly you're looking for. Roughly, the graphics are about the same, but the 360 looks crisper. It'll probably be more conventional on the 360, so if you liked the format of XML or XML2, it'll be just like that.

Personally, I'm going with the Wii simply because I know I'll need a game to take a break from LoZ:Twilight Princess, all the previews state the controller works no problem and it supposed to get some exclusive characters.

Really? Cable and X-man are two of my overall favorite characters in XML2. They have a lot of great specials and are better then most of the characters in the console roster...plus its X-Man and Cable! Dark Phoenix was really good as well, but she was just too overpowered. She has a lot of moves and she was cool to use, but she just killed everyone too fast. Cannonball is the least cool of all the exclusive characters.

1. Cable
2. X-man
3. Dark Phoenix
4. Cannonball

that's how i'd rank the PSP exclusives for XML2

see thats why i usually buy video games.. lol i only enjoy halo in multiplayer.. though most nintendo games i enjoy alone or with friends... but im kinda not a great gamer... i tend to buy only what i hear is good (though im not much of a fan of first person shooters or typical blood and guts game...

i usually stick to buying marvel and star wars games... though i love the burnout games, halo games, snowboarding games, loved fable as well...im kinda biased, just not much on the 360 has appealed to me... wish they'd make another fable game

Tell me this isn't true. What moron would make someone like Silver Surfer a exclusive character?

I wonder how the reserve code works exactly. I mean I know with the code you can be the surfer from the get go, but if you dont reserve, does that mean that you can still unlock him to play in a new game?

Depowered. Probably regulated to blasts and flying.

I'm used to playstation's usual controllers, but I'm definately getting the Wii. Everything I've seen is damn impressive and PS3 is looking like its headed for disaster. I'm hoping Nintendo doesn't drop the ball on this one either, and the Wiimote enhances game play like its supposed to. I know it will in games designed specifically for the wii like shooters, but I'm hoping that these third party games find a way to work well with it.

He might be easier considering his illusion-clones can't harm you.

Very true, at least, in that respect. Still, I can't help but think they'll try to tailor it to Mysterio's calling card a bit more, with obstacles such as booby traps, noxious gas, robots, or something like that.

I'm just glad he's in there - he's always been my favorite Spiderman villain. :D

From Kalina. :woot:

Silver Surfer powers – here’s just a coupe that might answer some questions you had about him:

Silver Dash – summon the board and charge forward through enemies ahead. It does a respectable amount of damage. http://vip.marvelultimatealliance.com/board/images/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Surfer’s Rage – an awesome power where Surfer can levitate up on his surfboard and crackle his Power Cosmic through four surrounding enemies.

Galactic Might – I won’t even describe this one but you can imagine it’s pretty epic.

The red one is supposed to be Ult. Strange? I dont really remember what Strange Sr. looked like, but I know Strange Jr basically had the classic look. And on a side note, if Malice isnt one of the Invisible Woman's alternates, I'll be pissed as hell.

And heres a thought..... what if Deadpool is just a skin of Blade? Cause that would actually make alot of sense.
