    When all is said and done, your satisfaction with the DS version of MUA 2 will rely in large measure on what you expect going in. The game is relatively short, but you're supposed to play it more than once.
  2. That rant out of the way, Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2 for the Nintendo DS is a fun game that has the most to offer when played cooperatively. The biggest flaw, beyond the minor aforementioned annoyances and distractions, is when you boil it all down this is a game intended for the consoles and that is where it excels.
  3. Overall, Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2 is better than the first outing.
  4. While adding more than enough super powered friends and foes to keep Marvel fans happy, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 for the DS is a surprisingly entertaining handheld action game.
  5. If you have a friend who's willing to pick the game up and join you for the playthrough, then a great time could be had. Most players, however, will play through the game solo and be bored with it before the conclusion.

    Odd little combat bugs, the lack of a reactive map that aligns itself with the game’s camera , and the inherent issue of having four superheroes face off against just a handful of henchman at a time makes Ultimate Alliance 2 an unimpressive take on the already-suffering (in my opinion) series.
  7. A mediocre game, few more than a fan service for the ones who love Marvel Universe. Low framerate and no use for the double screen and all the DSi features.
