I don't like the idea of an MMO where you don't play as your own custom character.
SUPERMAN2013 - 7/10/2012, 9:37 AM
Why didn't he pick the hulk or iron man...loser,this just looks like a different version so ultimate alliance...pass
TheAlexLynch - 7/10/2012, 9:38 AM
^Watch the full video. He plays as Hulk later on.
marvel72 - 7/10/2012, 9:43 AM
this should of had a create hero/villain mode like dc online,but the faults that dc online suffered with should of been sorted out for this game.
Manogeek - 7/10/2012, 9:43 AM
So it's Marvel's version of Diablo. That could be cool.
EpicMan - 7/10/2012, 9:44 AM
Dont really know if its an MMO. Its more like Diablo
113 - 7/10/2012, 9:54 AM
He chooses Scarlet Witch to demo...really? Scarlet Witch was your choice out of Hulk, Iron Man, and Wolverine?

....
BANNER78 - 7/10/2012, 9:56 AM
I already have this game...its called MARVEL ULTIMATE ALLIANCE 1&2...thanks but no thanks...dont want to buy it again...way to pull out on sega...at least the games were somewhat trash not complete trash...get it together MARVEL!!!
marcuskiner - 7/10/2012, 9:56 AM
Gotta say, I'm in agreement with Grif on this one (dafuq?). I mean, it looks like a generic MMO with Marvel characters.
MilesMorales - 7/10/2012, 10:04 AM
Why the hate? Marvel Ultimate Alliance (and to a lesser extent, Ultimate Alliance 2) were excellent games, which featured a 4 player local co op mind you, something so rare it should be petrified.
EdParker - 7/10/2012, 10:07 AM
Damn it =(
astromerc - 7/10/2012, 10:10 AM
@113 I know right that's what he would pick for the demo! fail.
TheAlexLynch - 7/10/2012, 10:16 AM
This honeslty has no similarities to MUA. Are you guys really that blind? It's a Diablo clone.
EdParker - 7/10/2012, 10:23 AM
forget about it being like diablo or mua, still no goodie =(
Moakynubs - 7/10/2012, 10:28 AM
Will probably get it.

..It IS free.
DanteSparda - 7/10/2012, 10:28 AM
He plays as Hulk at 9:10

Woow! The X-Men mansion, seriously I'm going to have a nerdgasm, this must be what Harry Potter fans feel when exploring Howarts in a HP game LOL.

Seriously people, as someone who have played both Marvel Ultimate alliance games and Diablo I and II this games doesn't look anything like MUA, it certainly feels like a diablo game but with tons of characters and it's also an MMO.

@Asterisk

Seriously, It would be worse to play a Marvel game where you can't play as Marvel characters, take in mind that you have the chance to play as any Marvel character you want with one singel account.
Roscoe182 - 7/10/2012, 10:35 AM
@Asterisk yer i agree i want to build my own characters in a game like this.. powers looks ect. as cool as it is to play as wolverine or cap id still prefer a blank character.
LAXtremest - 7/10/2012, 10:41 AM
The DC Online concept seems pretty awesome. I have X-Box so I can't experience that kind of awesomeness. Yeah, I'd like to create my own character Nd play as him.
TimL - 7/10/2012, 10:45 AM
I thought "there is no doubt that guy either takes Iron Man or Hulk... or Wolverine" and then he ends up taking the witch... ruined the WHOLE video for me. I skipped through it fast forward to the Hulk part and then to the end.
Roscoe182 - 7/10/2012, 10:46 AM
@ Lax DCUO is pretty cool its not great but it is fun to play..

even better now its free to play if you have a pc you can just download the game and same on ps3 but its better on pc
HankHill - 7/10/2012, 10:51 AM
You kids and your got-dang vidya games...
Deadpool101 - 7/10/2012, 10:56 AM
sweet i will be getting this for sure
MikeHawk - 7/10/2012, 11:10 AM
HOLD UPPP U IRRITATING FANBOYS! first of all, when this game was announced EVERYBODY was saying "OMG i hope its better than DCUO and that i actually get to play the ACTUAL marvel heroes this time." U guys also kept asking for an ultimate alliance 3, well this is very close to it if not better! cmon man, i know its modeled after Diablo but at least they have the makers of diablo ON THIS. even if u guys dont like it, the game is free so stop complaining. This looks amazing for a free game.
MikeHawk - 7/10/2012, 11:12 AM
did u see the Scarlet witch's animations for her attacks? those were beautiful!
EpicMan - 7/10/2012, 11:16 AM
MMORPG
superotherside - 7/10/2012, 11:16 AM
It looks like it could be cool. Still I wish the camera was closer to the characters instead of being so Marvel Ultimate Allianceish. More like DC Universe online's camera.

Wish it would be more like this unreleased game. Just an online version of this.

DioFoRio - 7/10/2012, 11:27 AM
Graphics look good and the environments are looking sweet as well. Game looks awesome.
TankD - 7/10/2012, 11:29 AM
Marvel makes some really shitty games.
DioFoRio - 7/10/2012, 11:32 AM
@Superotherside. LOL man that game looks like shit! I see what they were aiming for but they failed miserably. But yeah let's hope someday we get a game with the same idea. Just an open world superhero brawl done right on next gen. Would be sick
felixxx - 7/10/2012, 11:33 AM
Graphics look really really bland. The original Ultimate Alliance had better graphics. The gameplay looks slow and VERY boring. Way to go Marvel another complete wayste of time.
MikeHawk - 7/10/2012, 11:41 AM
yes because u're going to judge the entire game on a demo and for the most part, one character -_-
GLprime2814 - 7/10/2012, 11:43 AM
Ultimate alliance looks like.
Altair - 7/10/2012, 11:44 AM
Looks great. It's all free, you can unlock famous costumes like the Avengers movie costumes, and it is what I would call "Ultimate Alliance Online". I know I'll start a clan or guild and make a team of Avengers ingame.
GLprime2814 - 7/10/2012, 11:46 AM
Or marvel diablo.
Thegoddamnbatman52 - 7/10/2012, 11:57 AM
Il just go back to playing the first ultimate alliance and diablo 3 thank you very much
DioFoRio - 7/10/2012, 12:12 PM
this is ultimate alliance done right. Better animations,higher resolution graphics. Not to mention free? What's not to like.
SageMode - 7/10/2012, 12:14 PM
This sucks. I'll pass
Spidey31 - 7/10/2012, 12:21 PM
I wish marvel would invest money on making a spiderman game that is taken seriously. I want a game based off a comic and not something they just come up with. For example I want a open world Spidey game that lets you change between Pete and Spidey, and I want it to be set in the 60s based off of The Green Goblins run including the death of Gwen Stacy. Who else thinks it would be cool if you had to be back a certain time before aunt may catches you and you have to make tough desciosons leaving school because of a crime in progress? Big budget spiderman game with free roam top of the line graphics and RPG like qualities.
BANE5000 - 7/10/2012, 12:22 PM
Too bad this couldnt be release as a console game ala Xmen Legends or Ultimate Alliance
Theophilis - 7/10/2012, 2:08 PM
Who wants to play a marvel or dc game and not be one of the big name characters?

I understand wanting to create your own character, but that's what champions online and city of heroes/villains is for.

I would still prefer another marvel ultimate alliance game, but it is free.
eDubya72 - 7/10/2012, 2:28 PM
@BANE5000, agreed. However no full games on xbox live are free :(
daonejmel - 7/10/2012, 10:27 PM
All the idiots that say this is Marvel Ultimate Alliance 1 & 2 are wrong. This is an MMO once there are tons of people playing online this will look very different. I bet you guys will be the first ones on line when it comes out, so stop trolling before you even play, smh.

@MikeHawk

Hey man, speak for yourself. This game probably won't be worth a trial.
