Marvel: Ultimate Alliance
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance lets players create their ultimate team from the largest superhero alliance ever as they engage in an epic quest to determine the fate of the Marvel universe. Players can control their own completely unique team by selecting from the largest roster of legendary superheroes ever assembled in one game. Through the epic campaign, the heroes will battle, team-up, and interact with over 140 characters from the Marvel universe and ultimately confront notorious villains. Use a universal team upgrade system to balance your heroes' powers, or customize each member to maximize their effectiveness. In addition to engaging in the epic single-player storyline, you can converge in battle, online or offline, against the world's most evil Super Villains. Switch between cooperative and competitive mode to partner or challenge up to three other players.

If you were lucky enough to grab this game and its sequel before they were delisted on steam back in 2018 , it runs well on steam deck so far getting a constant 60fps. Hopefully you can find a steam key for a somewhat decent price, Very fun marvel game.

Still one of my all time favorites. MUA1 was one of the very first games I got with the Xbox 360 back in 2007, and it's only gotten better with age. Literally. Thanks to Steam Input, it's easy to fix the controller issues that plagued this port back when Activision dropped it, and now it runs like a charm. Don't know how much of that is pure luck, but I can't complain.
Growing up, Ultimate Alliance was my gateway to the greater Marvel universe, outside of Spider-Man, the X-Men, and the Fantastic Four. I still remember scrolling through my old Marvel encyclopedia, seeing if I could track down all the lip service this game pays to the comics. All of these characters still mean a lot to me. And you know what, no matter how much modern perceptions about this universe are affected thanks to the MCU and other oversaturated nonsense, I'm still going to hold this game as the Marvel I choose to remember above all else. Accept no substitutes. 'nuff said

This is one of my favorite childhood games, if not my favorite game, period. I've poured countless hours into this since I was young, and it taught me so much about the vast Marvel mythos. While I do wish there were more playable characters, the selection they chose is a great gallery of the many different aspects of the Marvel Universe. The gameplay can be a bit clunky at times, and the audio mixing is kinda an issue in some scenes, as well as janky teammate AI at times, I still highly recommend this game to anyone looking for a great single player/co-op dungeon crawling action RPG with a Marvel twist. 8/10

Absolute banger of a video game and a childhood classic, also have to give props because it was the first thing to introduce me to Deadpool , Moon Knight , and other great marvel characters.

First hour review after stumbling upon a key for this game for cheap (sixty bucks is insane)
the controls for both keyboard and mouse/controller are actually buffalo shit im not even joking. I had to set up DS4Windows and HidHide for what i'd consider clean controls. I am really upset that this game won't get a proper remaster because these games are fun and it just feels a little rushed here. but at least i can say its the ultimate alliance I remember.
