Marvel: Ultimate Alliance is an all-new action/RPG where players create their Marvel dream team from the largest roster of Super Heroes ever in an epic quest that will determine the fate of Earth and the Marvel universe. For decades, Earth's Super Heroes have opposed evil in their own cities, and on their own terms. But now, Dr. Doom and a newly reformed Masters of Evil - the greatest collection of Super Villains ever assembled - have plans for world domination, and the heroes must band together to defeat them. Playing as some of the most revered Marvel characters, gamers will embark on a dangerous journey across exotic terrain and well-known comic book locations like Atlantis, the Shield Heli-Carrier and the Skrull home world in an attempt to defy the world's most notorious Super Villains. Created by Raven Software, Marvel: Ultimate Alliance lets players control the most powerful Super Hero alliance the world has ever known.

Over 140 Marvel characters are waiting!
For the first time ever, the world's largest army of Super Heroes is under your control. Truly become your favorite Super Heroes with the fluid Wii controllers. One of the most important implementations on the Wii is the Advanced Gesture-based Combat System which pushes the capabilities of the Wii-mote and Nunchuk controllers. Players can even chain gestures together to create very powerful attack combos. With the Wii-mote, you can swipe upwards for upper cut punches and kicks, swipe down for stun attacks, sweep left or right for trip attacks, jab forward for heavy attacks and shake for quick, light attacks. Further, attack powers are custom for each character and are mapped to the Wii-mote gestures, and the Nunchuk can be used for picking up objects, throwing, blocking, dodging/rolling as well as movement via the analog stick.

Create your Marvel dream team
Experience the full scale of the Marvel universe with a combined cast of over 140 popular comic book characters. Players create, customize and control their ultimate four-person strike team, selecting from an initial roster of 20 playable Super Heroes, including Spider-Man, Wolverine, The Thing, Captain America, Elektra and Thor and battle notorious Super Villains including Dr. Doom, Galactus and countless others. Ultimate Alliance offers gamers total team customization. Players can form their favorite Marvel dream team, create their own team name, team icon, team vehicle and establish a team reputation as they play through an original storyline hand crafted by renowned game developer Raven Software and Marvel's own C.B. Cebulski. Additionally, players have more control over leveling up each team member to their liking, or upgrading all team members together to keep their heroes balanced.

With new and dynamic combat capabilities, Super Heroes can now fight while airborne, on the ground, and even submerged underwater as they traverse through 17 exotic locales and play out some of the most legendary comic book battles from the Marvel universe. Players will have access to a host of fighting tactics and accessories, including melee combat moves such as grappling, blocking and quick combos, new chargeable Super Hero powers, more environmental objects that can be used as weapons, and unique one and two-handed weapons.

Indivisible, with Liberty, and Multiplayer for All
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance features a unique storyline where players not only determine the fate of Earth, but also control the fate of the Marvel universe. The missions players accept, the objectives completed, and how players interact with other characters throughout the game will have a direct impact on how the story plays out. In addition to the epic single-player storyline, players can also battle the world's most evil Super Villains alongside friends in both on and offline cooperative story modes. This robust multiplayer component also features a Competitive Mode - where the game keeps track of various in-game stats so players can see how well they stack up against one another - affecting the amount of experience points and how equipment is distributed.

- Ultimate Alliance, delightful on the wii.
Marvel:Ultimate Alliance is a truly well designed game. It features many of your favorite super heroes and has a great storyline. I like that you can create your own team of four from more than 21 playable characters. A little into the game you can either stick with the team you have or put together a team with certain combinations that have bonuses. If you pick a team that does not form a special combination then you can create your own team name and avatar and it will add a general bonus. Some ... Read More

- Fun for all
Being a mom of girls, action packed video games never made it to our home, but now since I have 2 son-in-laws and 3 grandsons, I decided to get this game for the guys. All I can say is they all love it, from my 5 yr. old grandson, my 2 son-in-laws 27 & 30 to my 50 yr. old husband. I like the fact that it is exciting and fun for all of them, and not difficult to play, easy enough for the 5 year old and challenging enough for the older guys. Great game

- A lot of fun
The game is great the motion controls are a bit tough at first but you have the option of not using them at all. Overall great game to play with others.

- Brightly colored spandex optional.
Originally I bought this for the Playstation 2, but when I bought my Wii I thought, (A) it would serve as a good way to test the Wii-mote's controls on an action game, (B) it included 2 of my all-time favorite comic heroes as playable characters (Moon Knight and Colossus), and (C) it was on sale for $20.

Well, the controls were pretty comfortable as far as the standard melees go, but I found it hard to execute certain types of hits (usually, the heroes performed a trip move when I wanted ... Read More

- Great game. Controller issues aren't if you pay attention and practice.
For all the people who had a problem with the controls:
You can also get around shaking the controller and get to all the special moves by holding down B, then cycling through the powers with Z. You then use your selected power by holding B and hitting A. It's actually pretty easy. I wish a lot of the reviewers would have actually read the controller layout on the Options menu. Maybe then they would've had a better experience.

I really enjoy the Marvel Universe and ... Read More
