New Marvel Ultimate Alliance media

by Alan Rose { Jul 24th 2006 at 9:00AM }

WorthPlaying has posted ten new screens from Marvel Ultimate Alliance, and there's an updated trailer and Nightcrawler vid over at GameTrailers. Due in October, Marvel's latest action-RPG includes a healthy sampling of playable characters, although I've yet to see Iron Man on any confirmed roster list. Hulk isn't mentioned either, but at least we know Bruce Banner will be one of the dozens of NPCs featured in the game, along with The Inhumans, Black Widow, Dr. Doom, and that big purple world devourer putting the squeeze on Spidey. Where's Silver Surfer when you need him?

The premise of the game looks interesting, and they probably saved some of the characters for the sequels. The only playable X-Men are Iceman, Wolverine, and Nightcrawler - the same ones from the crappy X-Men official game.

I would like to see Scarlet Witch, The Vision, Hawkeye, and Iron Man for the next entry.

I am right here. What do you ask of me?

I would wager the makers of the upcoming Iron Man movie may have paid for exclusive game rights for a craptacular movie tie-in game.

I really enjoy this game's liberal use of secularity and bump mapping. They look like action figures. :P

Galactus looks like he's playing with a Spider-Man action figure. :P

Big typo. Sorry.

I can't imagine why Galactus would ever even take notice of Spidey. There isn't anything Mr. Parker could do to piss off that galactic deity. (/endgeek)

Perhaps he wanted some floss?

To the comment below, Nightcrawler isn't playable. And not everyone has been released.

I am actually a little disapointed with the fact that there are only going to be 20 playable characters. I thought the 360 was supposeed to be so great and the highest number is 20 come on. I hope they just have some common sense and put in Daredevil.
