As a lover of comic books, the original Marvel Ultimate Alliance was excellent fan service. Not only did it give you a diverse roster of heroes to play with, along with great abilities and unlockable costumes, it also gave you some RPG like attributes where you could level up your character and abilities however you [...]

Before I begin, let me make one thing clear: I am not a Playstation fanboy. I may have been a bit of a fanboy with the Playstation 2, as it was a console that absolutely dominated the market and carried nearly every game of the era that I was interested in playing. But the Playstation [...]
