Hey just wanted to point out that this video is spoiler free, but there may be some Deadpool & Wolverine spoilers in the comments! Obviously if someone straight up leaves a comment purposefully spoiling something, I’ll delete it. But I don’t wanna have to censor the more vague ones. So I thought it just makes sense to pin this comment and let you know to be careful in the comments cheers! :)
UA1 was my introduction to the wider marvel universe besides spiderman. It was how i learned about characters like deadpool whom i never heard of before.
Fun Fact: Nolan North is known for voicing Deadpool usually and did so in MUA 3 but in MUA 1 and 2 he didn’t voice him at the time but instead voiced 4 others. Ghost Rider, Moon Knight, and Hawkeye in MUA1 and Colossus in both 1+2.
Fun fact! The characters in the first game do have classes, these go from Bruiser, Bruiser Light, and Support, every character from one of the classes share the same stats and are only different from fighting style and abilities and obviously skin
Your premise for ideal version of one of these games at 15:45 is actually exactly the way Spider Man: Friend or Foe game goes, which has a similar gameplay
These are some of my favorite games. I did a Deadpool themed run on MUA2 and MUA3 a few years ago. For MUA2 I had Deadpool, Wolverine, Cable and Juggernaut. For MUA3 It was the same but Colossus instead of Juggernaut. Both were a lot of fun.
woah this is actually a great idea! might need to wait a wee bit tho to not spoil it for people in the title/thumb, thanks for the idea! :) also I know it’s really minor but would you mind editing your comment and changing it to “cameo characters” or something 🫶🏻 I know you technically didn’t spoil anything but people will get mad haha
Fun fact. MUA1 had a strange glitch for items. Essentially one could make hybrids. The rule was an item could absorb a second effect only. So if you got an HP on hit item and found something that has MP on hit for the second effect you could make a crazy leech item. Deadpool can become a Whirlwind Barbarian like Diablo. Anyone curious look up the glitch on FAQs. It's a weird and obscure piece of knowledge and I believe only the ps2 version had this glitch ( I could be wrong ).
Marvel Ultimate Alliance was my introduction to Deadpool. Then I started collecting the comics from 2009 to 2013. It was when Daniel Way was the head writer. I enjoyed my time with Ultimate Alliance, but I dont have the patience to play it again. I appreciate the time I had with it though.
Ultimate Aliance one is where I learned about Deadpool as a kid, and he quickly became my favorite. Thanks for taking me back to my nerd roots, wish I could play this game one more time.
Now I have to to one at some point. I always wanted to do Fantastic Four My current favorite team to use: - Storm, Iceman, Wolverine, Spider-Man Other favorites - Daredevil and Elektra - Classic team: Cap, Spidey, Thor, Wolverine - PSP Only: Hawkeye, Black Widow
haha thank you mate, as soon as I heard Like a Prayer in the trailer, I knew I had to somehow get Grado in the video. A joke literally a handful of people will get🫡
MUA1 was my first Marvel team-up adventure game ever. I first played it on the original PS2 port, then years later the Xbox 360 Gold Edition. MUA2's big flaw is that the player cannot pick an individual hero, due to it being a co-op title.
In Ultimate Alliance 2 on PSP, playing as Deadpool was the only way I could defeat crooked Nick Fury towards the end of the game.😅 Deadpool was so OP in that version on the game. Or maybe I just played better as him? Great game regardless.
The Ultimate Alliance games were my favorite games growing up, I’m kinda tempted to play the third game again only with Deadpool, Wolverine, Gambit & Elektra or Blade since they were in the movie (sorry for anyone who hasn’t seen the movie yet).
I own all 3 titles. My favorite is MUA3. It’s the reason I got a Nintendo Switch. MUA3 is the most rewarding and has the highest replay value. MUA2 has the best storyline and presentation. It feels the most like a AAA game. MUA1 is the most rewarding for comic book lovers. It’s the most comic book accurate of the 3 I’d argue. Overall, one of my favorite video game franchises since childhood.
MUA1 was the best experience, MUA2 was peak gameplay, MUA3 is a solid game. Ultimate Alliance gave four costumes for each character, a wide variety of ways to unlock the characters, and was a wholly unique story that opted to be a sendup to Comic Fans and get more people interested in comics. Ultimate Alliance 2 improved dramatically on the combat, making the fusion mechanic into a creative way to build teams that filled gaps and more importantly, promotes you in taking characters you might not normally play because they fit a team or they have an ability. Ultimate Alliance 3 is the game I've played the least, but it's just... good. It's expansive, it's a unique story, even if it is inspired by the MCU and the popularity that it brought. The roster of characters works in favor of Smash Bros. Logic as everyone is here. Having multiple bonuses for team affiliations able to be active was cool and a solution to them updating how characters work statwise. It's not anything I can complain about.
You might want to check out midnight susn too, sadly you need to buy Deadpool individually but he has his own missions so I think it's worth the price. Wolverine joins quite a bit later in the game too but you can play the majority of missions with just them, or both and another hero.
Yeah I have the Complete Edition and was actually going to do this video on MS originally but felt like it would feel too restrictive because you only get the 3 character slots. Really excited to play through it normally tho!
So in MUA2, if you do a second playthrough, and you bring Deadpool to the mission where you fight Deadpool, the Deadpool in your party will make an off comment about how weird it is that there are 2 of him.
Theres websites where you can find steam codes to delisted games and still buy them. Usually they arent removed from the steam servers but just have their hyperlinks and pages hidden. You might be able to find them.
I remember that there was a X-man version of a game like this that I used to play on the GameCube where you guessed it Deadpool and Wolverine are in it go find that to play too just want to see it again
Also I never heard you touch up on it, or I may have missed it. But the first game gets so much love because of the interchangeability it provides. Characters have more than 4 unique moves, that you can change out. You also have gear you can wear and swap between characters. It just provided more making the characters your own that 2 and 3 were lacking. I love all the games, but 1 holds a special place in my heart for those reasons and many others. 3 also doesn't get the love I feel it deserves. Yes it's lacking a lot of what 1 and 2 offered. But the story was, imo, a good story, even tho I would love to see the ending of 1 expanded on.
I really like MUA3's gameplay. Every character feels unique and special in some ways, and the DLC ones are even better in terms of creativity (they even made The Thing an interesting character). My gripes with the game is that it has TOO MUCH GRINDING, some characters are terribly designed (Dr. Strange, Scarlet Witch, Rocket & Groot) and the level design gets too repetitive. If they could combine MUA1 (atmosphere, direction, combos, costumes, overall story), MUA2 (writing, combined specials, different playthroughs) and MUA3 (artsytyle, combat, unique properties, giant roster) they could make a great game.
In my opinion it goes Marvel Ultimate Alliance 1 (I've played it most likely 30 times and have played it all the way through on different game systems like at least 10), Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2,( I wanted it for my 7th birthday ) it was cool that the graphics were updated, then Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3, even though I got that for free as a Christmas gift from a friend, the screen would be chaotic at times and idk it had a lot of mcu influence by including the black order.
You forgot to do a playthrough of Wolverine and Deadpool in X-Men Legends 2. But Deadpool needs the booster mod from Marvel Mods in that game since his powers kinda suck.
X-Men Legends 2 have both Wolverine and Deadpool, but don't remember if Deadpool even unlocked after you defeat him as boss or after completing the game. Anyway there's a cheat code to unlock everything. As for MUA games. I mostly prefer MUA3, but MUA1 is veeeeery close to it. MUA2 is worse for me... I can't even complete it without feeling bored. But I did complete DS version and kinda liked it since it plays more like MUA1 rather than PS360 version.

@zynlhok9667 this is the PS4 version! (played on a PS5)
Marvel ultimate alliance is a childhood classic
Facts! Excited to actually finish them for the first time haha
@@PlatinAdam enjoy it
The first one is definitely iconic
For sure! Played 1 and 2 with my dad growing up. So fun!
So real bro me and my bro and dad would chop it up
"im still holding out hope we see Channing Tatum's Gambit in the film" HOO BOY

His a great gambit😊
You won't be disappointed then.

UA1 was my introduction to the wider marvel universe besides spiderman. It was how i learned about characters like deadpool whom i never heard of before.
Yeah it’s really cool looking back and seeing how many of the characters have been pushed into the mainstream now with all the films!
Yeah, UA1 was actually how I learned about Deadpool. Now he's absolutely everywhere..
Same this is what led to me reading the deadpool and wolverine comics and being more interested in comics all rpund
I learned about Spiderwoman who seems completely unrelated to Spiders at all lol
Sameeeeee

Pretty cool! Also noticed he plays Rocket in MUA3!
I think you can also play as them in X-Men Legends II
Oooooh thanks for sharing this! Might have to take a look...
Yes X-Men legends 2 was actually the first time I saw Deadpool. I always had him in my party lol.
@@Greendragon547my first introduction to him also alongside Ironman on the PSP
X-Men Legends was made by Raven software, which was sadly subjected to work on Call of Duty in 2010

I remember getting ultimate alliance on Christmas . 2007 was a good year!
It's crazy how well UA 1 holds up gameplay wise.
Feels better than 2 and 3 imo. I wanna get a ps3 again just so I can play it

Haha woah that’s so cool, great minds think alike!
If you've already seen the movie you should do another video playing with the void resistance members in all ulltimate alliance games.
woah this is actually a great idea! might need to wait a wee bit tho to not spoil it for people in the title/thumb, thanks for the idea! :)
also I know it’s really minor but would you mind editing your comment and changing it to “cameo characters” or something 🫶🏻 I know you technically didn’t spoil anything but people will get mad haha
I’m doing that rn but with just the first game
Me: "So did I...that healing factor is kinda broken"
lol YEAH I've started playing as other characters now and it's a bit rough, need to relearn how to block haha
Ah man well done idk how I MISSED THIS! Massive W. The opening cutscene sent shivers down my spine I forgot about this game
thanks mate! new profile pic looks cleeean
@@PlatinAdam thank you!
First MUA is a GEM! As well as X Men Legends 2
Honestly ashamed to admit I had somehow never heard of those games before people commented here! Looks like I’ve got some education to do :)
@@PlatinAdam Fortunately, both games are working fine on modern PC. With no fixes needed.
both Deadpool and Wolverine were mains in my teams in all the games. Healing factor came in handy many times

UA3 was not fun for me sadly. Great video! You so lucky to have that UA2 dlc. I missed out on it
I love Ultimate Alliance
Classic Game 🔥
Me too.
Nice video Adam and congrats on 1K subs! 🎉
Thank you Rob!!
Now I have to to one at some point. I always wanted to do Fantastic Four
My current favorite team to use:
- Storm, Iceman, Wolverine, Spider-Man
Other favorites
- Daredevil and Elektra
- Classic team: Cap, Spidey, Thor, Wolverine
- PSP Only: Hawkeye, Black Widow
That voice actor for Wolverine from the first ultimate alliance was perfect
Steve Blum actually plays him in all 3! Think he’s the only voice actor to play the same character across all the games
@@PlatinAdam that’s so sick
Spike Spiegel is Wolverine? Wow, that's awesome.
Ngl the sentinel just going "aaaaaa" when its thrown kills me
awesome video thanks for the nostalgia trip... i was kind of wondering if someone would do this type of video lmaoo
Marvel Ultimate Alliance was one of my favorite games as a kid, so much nostalgia ❤
haha the intro was class 👏👏
haha thank you mate, as soon as I heard Like a Prayer in the trailer, I knew I had to somehow get Grado in the video.
A joke literally a handful of people will get🫡
Deadpool has some 4th wall break lines but yea a bit sad they couldn’t of done a bit voice recordings, but for 06 it’s amazing
With a certain build, Deadpool is actually quite OP in MUA1. So no worries, just stick with it and you'll tear through the late game.
MUA1 was my first Marvel team-up adventure game ever. I first played it on the original PS2 port, then years later the Xbox 360 Gold Edition.
MUA2's big flaw is that the player cannot pick an individual hero, due to it being a co-op title.
Man I need to play this Game again sooooo much nostalgia
Some of my best memories with this game
“Because… I’m a Gambit guy.” ⚡️
Gambit in Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 was goated
I love the X-Men legends games and the marvel ultimate alliance games
You could've included X-Men Legends II as well, it's part of the MUA franchise.
Perfect video after watching the whole play through of Marvel ultimate alliance 1,2 and 3 and its retro perspective thank you!!!
great video twin but ngl you missed out on naming ya Chanel platinum adam
haha it’s a play on words bro! like Platin(Ad)um
now you need to play midnight suns to play as both of them in that game lol

Thought you might have done X Men Legends 2. Wolverine and Deadpool are both in it.
My brother was Wolverine, and I was Deadpool in MUA 1. Good times
Bruhh, you could also play x-men legends games. It's the saga and they are connected.
Yeah honestly didn’t know they excited til people commented ahah! Going go play them soon once I’m finished with these games 🙏🏻
So in MUA2, if you do a second playthrough, and you bring Deadpool to the mission where you fight Deadpool, the Deadpool in your party will make an off comment about how weird it is that there are 2 of him.
ahhh this is cool haha! There’s a trophy in the first game for meeting Doom as Doom too
marvel ultimate alliance... what a great game man
Do X-men legends too
Really wish those Ultimate Alliance games were on Steam😔
They were on steam a few years ago

I would love to see a remake of the first marvel ultimate alliance with all the dlc and version exclusive characters
I Love how nick fury changed race throughout these 3 games 😂😭☠
