It is a game that can become quite repetitive; but its extra features such as earning points to gain new skills, attributes, characters, and powers help break it a little bit. If you are a Marvel fan, you can definitely enjoy this game.
If you are an action hero fan, this is your game

Every superhero there is, at your fingtips. I dont play games much but i play this one for hours. Very easy to play (on easy mode) and non-stop carnage using 4 heroes at a team all on the same team!
Good Game

I like it, but the only thing is it would have been better to have a good camera angle that enhanced the visuals. Good game though, but also not many online options.
Really good game, definitely a must have!

In the beginning it wasn't so great, but as you play it more and get through the other levels it gets way fun. I would recommend it for anyone, it's just a fun game to play by yourself or with friends. I haven't played online yet, but i bet it would be a lot of fun.
Solid game for the comic book fan and others

M.U.A. isn't going to win any game of the year awards or anything like that but it is a solid game that a lot of fun and worth a purchase. It's a comic book themed role playing game in the same fashion as the X-Men games for the original XBOX. The gameplay works exactly the same but you get to play with characters from all over the Marvel universe. The graphics are also updated a bit and you can zoom in a lot more than in the older games to see more character details. The story is pretty good for this type of game too. Not a "Must Buy" but definately a "Should Buy" game.
Great Game, Too Easy

If you've played the X-Men Legends games, then you know exactly what this game is about. It is quite well executed and quite addictive just like its predecessors. However, it suffers from a fatal flaw. You can max out your characters easily by the halfway point in the game and beat the game with little problem. I do not think games should be quite so hard as some, but I do like a little challenge to test my characters skills and this game just lacks that one element from being great.
Finally. A Marvel game as big as the Mythos.

One of the best games for the XBOX 360, Marvel Ultimate Alliance manages to cram as much comic-book goodness into a single game as any has before it. If you've played the X-Men Legends games, then you know what to expect here, a huge roster of Marvel heroes with their signature powers and alternative forms to boot. Everyone from heavy hitters Thor and Spiderman as here, as well as some less than top-tier characters (Blade, Luke Cage, Elektra, etc.). The inclusion of Iron Man was key for me, as he's my favorite Marvel hero, and one of the more useful characters in the game.
The game controls well, and looks particularly good on the 360, as it takes advantage of the systems advanced lighting and texture capabilities. The frame rate is constant and fluid, and there's little you won't like here. The camera angles can be tough to deal with at times, but compared to some other versions (Wii...ugh), this one is a pleasure.
This is easily one of the most playable (and replayable) titles on the XBOX 360. With a ton of unlockable content (and more that you can download from XBOX Live), and some of the better multiplayer available (competitive and co-op), this one will keep you busy for a good while, and keep a smile on your face all the while. Excelsior!

This game absolutely rocks, it's been the biggest fun since I bought my XBOX 360, I even bought a 3rd controller so that both my brothers could beat the game with me. The number of Marvel Characters is huge and NPC's keep poping up facts about the Marvel Universe that I either didn't know or had forgotten. Unlockable comic book covers bring back memories of my time as a hardcore fanboy.
On the downside, the graphics could have been better, but the simple yet effective game play and great story more than make up for it. Also, the special attacks look amazing and the alternate costumes make it worthwhile to play through the training missions. Content download is supported, adding Venom, Dr. Doom, Magneto, Sabertooth, Hulk, Hawkeye, Cyclops and Nightcrawler to the mix. I wish Dr. Doom and Cyclop's alternate outfits where better but it still is a great game.
great game........

It has been a while since I have enjoyed a game so much. This game is addictive and makes you feel like a superhero with facinating powers.
