I don't often review games, not being a hard-core gamer myself, so I thought I would write a review for the casual gamer.
My first mistake was playing Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 first. It was actually fun. Yes, it took some getting used to and is, overall, pretty arcade(?) compared w/other games I had played up to that point (such as Dead Space and Resistance. I never played video games before X-Mas '08 when I got my PS3, so I am late to the game. No pun intended). What I mean is, MUA2 is kind of juvenile. Not just in it's story and action but the gameplay itself. It was very different than the scary, intense, bloody, action FPS games I had played before, but, being a huge Marvel comic fan from the 80's, I wanted to play it. As I said, it took getting used to, but, overall, I came to really get into it and thoroughly enjoyed it.
So, of course, I wanted more Marvel fun and thought, after reading reviews, give a go w/the first MUA. I guess this is how games were BEFORE X-Box 360 and PS3. Glad I did not bother w/those. First of all, there are NO voices, u read EVERYTHING. Makes for strange gameplay. Often times, I find myself hitting the 'X' before I have read the dialogue. The graphics, in particular the colors, are amateurish and low-rent compared to today's games, which is to be expected. The controller, which certain scenes require you to move in a rapidly changing direction, are so bad that it takes the fun away from the game itself. I guess, in summary, if you are used to playing older generation games then you are used to this level of game-playing. Having not played the systems before the PS3, I find this game LESS THAN stellar, mildly amusing at best. For the price it costs used, I guess you can't expect much.
