MARVEL ULTIMATE ALLIANCE 2

[Tawmis]

Anyone else playing this? I got it two nights ago and couldn't put it down till 4:30am...

And only just got to the part where you pick sides! Great game so far. They changed some things from the first one that I am not liking so much - but it's all right.

I have the first one and it was okay. The best part was the inclusion of Deadpool, who in my impartial opinion, is the best Marvel character ever.

Is DP an available character in MUA2? If he is, I might consider getting it if it's released for the Wii.

Oh and one other question: is the Black Widow playable? I know she wasn't in the first game, but Maia likes the character.

Deadpool is playable. And Black Widow was playable in the... PSP version (If I remember).

Deadpool isn't immediately playable - you have to unlock him (by eventually fighting him) - but his fight comes very early in the game.

And - wow, so I figured with your name - you liked Deadpool - but best Marvel Character?

I gotta hear the story to the attachment to the character...

[DeadPoolX]

I really like Deadpool for three main reasons (although there are others) which are:
1. He's usually hilarious.
2. He rarely takes life seriously unlike many -- if not most -- Marvel characters.
3. He knows he's in a comic book and often breaks the Fourth Wall.

Slightly old news but DLC coming to MUA2...

First one of the five characters appears to be Carnage...

Character downloads (Carnage, Cable, Psylocke, Magneto and Black Panther) available; as well as the fact they made Juggernaut (once a pre-order exclusive) also available for download on XBOX LIVE.

Got them - but have not had a chance to play them. That would require putting Dragon Age down for a moment.
