The game will be far more like the X-Men Legends, then Nemesis.
In gameplay sure, but this ass roster says otherwise....:down

Anyone ever play War of the Gems for SNES? That was basically an early version of Marvel: Ultimate Alliance.

It featured Wolverine, Spider-Man, Capt. America, Hulk, and Iron-Man. There were probably like 8 or 9 different missions, featuring Sasquatch, The Thing, Daredevil, Dr. Doom, and Thanos as various bosses throughout the game. For any given mission, you could elect to be one of the 5 main heroes.

Extremely sick game.

Marvel actually has several "Batmen", not including NightHawk and HawkOwl, who were created more as parodies of Batman than they were as heroes in their own right.

Moon Knight: Works at night, almost no powers, relies on skills and gadgets, rich as hell, uses fear as weapon, custom vehichles based on theme, usually works solo.

Blank Panther: Trained his whole life, rich as hell, custom vehichles based on theme, fathers death part of motive, black costume with ears and cape, almost no powers, relies on skills and gadgets, usually works solo.

Iron Fist: Rich as hell, trained most of his life, parents death as motive, only power is a result of training, usually works solo or with single partner, bat-winged symbol on chest.

The list goes on, but most of them have already been mentioned.

Marvel Vs. Capcom is a little different, it's just a silly fighing game with lots of crazy characters, mainly on Capcoms side. But Ultimate Alliance has a World Threat theme and we get Elektra, Ghost Rider and worst of all Blade?! o_O

I was wondering, is this game only going to be released on the next generation consoles? Everywhere I go, that's what it says, but on the official site you can pre-order it, by clicking a picture of a PS2 cover for the game. :confused:

If it's only going to be released on next gen, I guess there are two games that require me to invest in a PS3, the other being Resident Evil 5.

...Awesome.:D Their voices are spot on. Especially Spidey's which reminds me of the old 60s cartoon. Cap is a true badass and everything seems to be in order. :)

Oh and the ability to take weapons from others and use it against them; very cool stuff. I hope the sequel takes advantage of the next gen capabilities and transfers all of the X-men from the old games into it. Just keep adding more and more Marvel characters to the point where the entire universe is in there...Well that would hold me over till the MMORPG comes out anyway.

I personally think that the DC one will be better though because there's more room to play. Metropolis, Gotham, Star City, Central City, Opal, etc. Marvel has...New York and California...Maybe Massachussetts if Hellfire Club is involved.

because DC isnt set in a reality based world where real world physics can take place... Superman originally got his powers from the earth and its sun.. (could jump high and fly due to gravity change) but eventually they through that out and he can go anywhere and still have his powers... :o
and more then half of DC's superheroes are aliens...

i dont see why we should be worrying.. theres alot of slots open.. and i doubt they will be filled with all X-men and seriously doubt there'd be many obscure characters... I think blade would be about as obscure as were going to get.... i suspect the rest of the list will be like this...

1. Elektra
2. Blade
3. Dr. Strange
4. Ghost Rider
5. Spider-Man
6. Captian America
7. Thor
8. Thing
9. Wolverine
10. Storm
11. Cyclops
12. Invisible Woman
13. Human Torch
14. Mr. Fantastic (unless he's a NP)
15. She-Hulk
16. Namor
17. Daredevil
18. Iron Man
19. Punisher
20. black panther

Now People i could see them throwing out of left field replacing certain "almost clones" (punisher, black panther and reed (who might be more of a prof X in some ways)... Moonknight, deadpool, ironfist, black cat, cloak/and or dagger, deathlocke, beast, nightcrawler, iceman, hawkeye, Hank pym (as giant man and antman), scarlet witch, luke cage, Ms. Marvel, Rogue, quicksilver, colossus, hulk, vision, wonderman, nick fury, spiderwoman... I could see a few of these easily take over. though i have a feeling this will be an avenger heavy game, rather then X-men... and some characters will def have tie in's to NP.. such as if phoenix is a villain then cyclops is def in the game... if hulks a villain, then id count on doc samson or she-hulk, is magneto.. then count on one of his children..

now if you think about what characters whos powers we havent seen in a game like this... i personally think that hawkeye, giant man, vision, quicksilver, mr. marvel, would all be some interesting people to play as... in fact... not only would i bet ironman, and daredevil are in the game... but id count on hawkeye as well

These guys I can just about gaurantee (with the exception of Giant Man and Wasp who are probably NPCs since I don't see how their powers would fit with some levels).

Namor I thought was a boss or NPC though. God I hope he's playable. That would kick so much ass.

Do you think they'll put wasp in it and maybe giant man, so you can do the ultimate avengers line-up? Would be cool, although I'd rather not have giant man. But all the die hard avengers fans will be begging for it i guess

I think a growing and shrinking pym would work.. esp with the change in costume power ups... wasp not so.. due to the fact i think growing would play better then just shrinking

Who knows if he'll be added though. The Growing/Shrinking powers might not work within the game.

Giant man kinda sucks. Hes a douche that beats his wife, and got the crap beat out of him by hulk and captain america (which wouldnt be so bad despite the fgact he was about 100 feet taller than either at the time).

My guess is that Raven is trying to give me a nervous breakdown by not officially announcing Daredevil (we know he'll be there).

So, pretty much anything I want in the game won't be there, or at least it will be announced at the very last minute, just to spite me.

Doing this sort of stuff to me is not above Raven. I've suspected it for a long time.

Trust me, 616 is better than Ultimate any day of the week! Other than Shadow Cat, the Ultimate X-men have crappy costums, and I hate how the charecters were changed to please special interest groups. For the record, 616 Hank Pym isn't nearly as much of a jerk, and has more than just growing/shrinking powers. Yes, he hit his wife, and that's bad, but it was an open palm, back handed Pimp-Slap, not the homicidel(SP?) attempt at punching Wasp while she was bug sized that Ultimate Pym made.
As for his other powers, he can command insects,(most often ants) fly, and shoot bio-electric energy blasts from his hands.

Umm. Not so. It's a mix. Didn't Cyclops and Jean Grey sound awfully young to you? Especially considering most X-games just use their voice actors from the 90s tv series. It's a mish mash.

I'd agree if they weren't different characters.

I just dropped all my X-men titles except Astonishing because they bore the crap out of me. Ultimate X-men doesn't and has remained pretty consistent. Good Quality. Point for Ultimate X-men.

The Spider-man comics are also guilty of the same thing. His titles have to be the ones that I have picked up and dropped most frequently over and over. Marvel Knights Spider-man kept me on the longest but that went poof. Ultimate Spider-man has remained consistent and pretty good in quality. Point Ultimate Spider-man.

Fantastic Four. Dropped all of them. Marvel Knights 4 I was hanging onto for a while but soon that got boring too. Ultimate Fantastic Four is the second best title in the Ultimate line and has only been getting better since it started. Point Ultimate Fantastic Four.

The Avengers and The Ultimates...This one I'll admit is a little closer than most (except Astonishing X-men. That book is awesome!). I'll give the edge to The Ultimates though since The Avengers (both) sometimes left me a little...eeh. Another title I've dropped and picked up frequently. Point Ultimates.

Consistency. That's what makes the Ultimate line so great. When you pick up something with Ultimate on it, you know you're getting a good product. So far the only argument against the Ultimate universe that I have heard is that it's different and that's like Marvel Zombie within a Marvel Zombie way of thinking. I read comics from all companies and The Ultimate line is always the first thing I read when I pick up my comics. They've just been entertaining me more and far more often than most 616 books and that is far more important than simple character change.

I don't agree with your opinion, but I respect it. However, cannibal Hulk, gay Colossus, female Vision, and incestuos(SP?) Scarlet witch and Quicksilver just aren't the heros I want to read about.
I don't have a problem with gay superheros, but I don't like this "change for changes sake" attitude that seems to be growing at Marvel. If you want to have a superhero who is part of a minority, be it ethnic, religious or sexual, then make a NEW charecter, instead of changing one that people already like. If the new hero is cool and well written, they he/she will catch on, but changing a popular hero to suit the smallest (but loudest) of special interest groups is almost sacralige.(I'm sure I mispelled that, but My Spellcheck doesn't work.)

in a way i definately agree but ultimate does break all rules.. for the simple fact its NOT the same characters and NOT the same stories... but in the 616 universe, change for change sake i dont agree with... and agree that if you wanna add a character for a certain reason, then make a new on.. like Hulkling and Wiccan, i love them to death

I actually love spidey right now... not his suit persay.. nor the new powers (wich to be honest havent even really been used much so chances are they'll be forgotten. The unmasking is really something peter has neve done, and i always did wonder what would happen.. so im loving this

and astonishing x-men rocks, plane and simple. I also am loving new x-men, as well as the new uncanny

and civil war is very interesting to me...

I agree, even though I hate the the whole concept of Civil War and :spidey: unmasking, it's all very well written, and so are recent issues of :ff: , especially the stuff with Thor's hammer out in Oklahoma(SP?).
And the spike things only come out when :spidey: is fighting a supernatural opponent, in order to level the playing field a bit.

Ultimate U. is just cooler....not to mention the fact its MUCH better written. Mark Miller is one of the best writers in the buisness today. The whole Ultimate line got me back into comics after years of being bored by the sub par repeated antics of the 616 U.

Ultimate X Men's first six or so arcs were some of my favourites ever, because it was so fresh and well done. The Ultimates is just amazing (before this comic, I could not have give a damn about the avengers or even Hulk, really).

I respect your opinion, but I will choose Ultimate over 616 90% of the time.

Also, Angel was a sucky, boring pretty boy untill they turned him into arch angel.

One of the moderaters at the Haven of Apocalypse boards has posted that new playable characters will finally be revealed at Comic-Con. Also, he posted that the official site has been experiencing technical difficulties the past 3 weeks, so that's why we are just now beginning to get new characters added. Everything is now fixed, and they're now working on catching up with the updates.
