Hype, Rage and the Ultimate Alliance.
Good: Ultimate Alliance and Ultimate Alliance 2 are on PS4, Xbone and Steam.
Bad: £40 single, £60 bundle.
Good: Teasing a s sequel.
Bad: The graphics bump isn't too grand.
Good: They're out right now.
Bad: Digital only.
Good: The Ultimate Alliance 2 DLC, including Carnage, Cable, Magneto, Psylocke, Black Panther and Juggernaut is included.
Bad: THE ULTIMATE ALLIANCE 1 DLC IS NOT AND THERE HAS BEEN NO MENTION OF IT EVEN THOUGH IT HAS CYCLOPS (fuck you), NIGHTCRAWLER, HAWKEYE, THE FUCKING HULK, MAGNETO, SABERTOOTH, DR DOOM AND VENOM!!! FUCK YOOOOOOOU, I NEVER GOT TO PLAY AS HIM DON'T TOY WITH ME LIKE THIS.

Note: The preexisting pc community already has a mod that adds those characters, as well as freshened up PSP exclusives: Black Widow, Ronin and Captain Marvel, as well as adding multiple new scenes (Magneto can save both JEAAAAAAAN and Nightcrawler in Mephisto's realm), and even stuff like giving Moon Knight a 4th costume, and giving Silver Surfer costumes to begin with, so please, download that instead.

A fair bit of Warning - do not buy it in its current state. It seems to lack common resolutions like 1080p, the keyboard controls are abyssmal and cannot be rebound. You will have to press 3 if you want to jump or 4 to open a door, great, right? Of course, if you got a gamepad it gets better, but it is still a buggy port that is vastly overpriced for a 10 year old game. Wait till the port is fixed by either the developers or the mod community and the price falls in a more sane area during a steam sale.

So, I did some digging, went round to the Ultimate Alliance modding community, and one guy found this

x_voice.pax file

There are "common.menus.character.an" and "common.menus.character.break" files for:

Black Widow
Captain marvel
Hawkeye
Hulk
Namor ("character.an" only)
Ronin
Warbird

There are .fsb and .sis files for all of the above. I'm intrigued the most by Namor, who only has one set of the files, and then Warbird, who was never a playable character in any of the editions. All the other characters are, obviously, just the playable ones. And again, all four PSP-exclusive characters are included, as well as Hulk, interestingly enough.


What the hell is going on?

But... WHY ARE THE PSP CHARACTERS IN THE FILES?!?

In context, all the sound files for the PSP exclusive characters are there, BUT THEY ARE NOT IN THE ORIGINAL VERSIONS!

WHAT?!? I am so confused at what is going on...

The Gold characters are now available!

As well as that, a number of frustrating bugs have been fixed, and I can now fuly enjoy the game. [spoilers]Well, there's still the PSP/Wii characters, but...[/spoilers]

I'd say pick up the bundle, now. An all-time classic, and a decent follow up that most people didn't play.

This has nothing to do with anything, but I'd like to say the Pinkanator does a fucking amazing job with titles. No irony, all sincerity.

Just seems wrong, really, because we all know you're a massive sub.
