SideQuesting.com - Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 seems to be a game stuck between two different worlds. In one hand, it wants to cater to the core audience with the inclusion of some character development and a reliance on the heady Civil War storyline as its base. In the other, it becomes a simple button-masher, devoid of action depth and unique characters.
Regardless, the perfect Christmas present for anyone in the 10-14 year old age group the game can be summarized with two words: "mindless fun".
