Marvel: Ultimate Alliance
In some ways, it’s easy to just dismiss Ultimate Alliance as X-Men Legends 3 with a biggest cast of characters. It’s definitely true; the game is totally wearing the skin of Raven’s other dungeon crawler, but it’s definitely not a bad thing. Expanding things to the greater Marvel universe proves to be the game’s smartest move.
You won’t notice that the X-Men are barely in the game when you can have Thor and Moon Knight fight alongside Blade and Ghost Rider. The lineup is the hook of the game, and it’s a good thing that it’s filled with some great characters. Traveling the different corners of the Marvel universe with these guys was fun, and the various cameos and appearances from other mainstays show the care that Raven has for the property. If you missed out on it during its heyday, it may be coming to current consoles too, so here’s hoping we all get to relive some fun memories.
