CGR Undertow - MARVEL: ULTIMATE ALLIANCE 2 for Xbox 360 Video Game Review

Classic Game Room presents a CGR Undertow video game review of Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 from Activision for the Xbox 360 from September 2009. One of the best parts of Ultimate Alliance 1 was that it left itself wide open for a sequel involving Galactus, maybe the Silver Surfer, and an even larger array of heroes that encompassed the whole of the Marvel Universe. But when Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 came out, it looked like the folks at Activision and Vicarious Visions who took over this series of games got lazy and didn't feel like coming up with an entirely new script again. Instead, they took two of the biggest Marvel story arcs in recent history with Nick Fury's Secret War and the Superhero Civil War and changed the ending so that if they ever decide to be original again, then they can. This video game review features Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 gameplay footage and commentary from CGR Undertow reviewer Ray.

Why does everyone hate Ray? I think he gives very good reviews, although he could add in a little more emotion to his rather monotone voice.

[Slench101]

is it just me or do I always think it says OGREmipre and not CGREmpire at the end... ogres are cool though xD

[DrJ2042]

we need marvel 3 wit the story after alliance 1

[Axelander9999]

Why am I not surprised that Ray reviews a 360 game ...

[Kingthug25]

if you played ninja gaiden 2 and used falcon talons you would see how stupid wolvernine is compared to Ryu

@ehalt2 thats exactly what i think every single time i watch one of ray's reviews, lol. derek and kevin are much better reviewers.

@FleshMan7063 Also he needs to improve on delivery. Most of his reviews he talks too fast and its like he's improvising the review.

[ipodxdude]

wow female marvel characters have large.........

[GrandTourGoku]

@FleshMan7063 better than derrick

@seanMmaguire1 It's not that I don't know Hulk can talk and there have been times when he was the intelligent one instead of Bruce, but the complaint still feels a bit off.
