So, what I can gather without sound...
-This is a game-version of the Civil War.
-Combination attacks are plentiful, and some look particularly brutal.
-They promise more heroes this time around.
-It looks pretty.

Anyone else think the gameplay's going to be almost exactly the same sort of nigh-underwhelming style it was last time, though?

You beat me to it. I was trying to find the old topic, gave up and was going to make a new one. MUA2 aka Civil War the game. XD

Anyone else disappointed that they didn't go with the Galactus route though? I know I am... considering they freakin' lead up to it in the first game!

I've been playing through the Wii version of the original game lately, so now I'm pretty excited for this one. XD

What team did you folks lean towards in the last game? Joker and I went with the Fantastic Four for our playthrough, because we're huge FF fans. Just check her current sig. :lol:

We kinda made our own teams - there was that option after all to name your own :P

But outside of that, I'm a fan of the Mighty Avengers :P

Carol Danvers FTW!

And then yeah... Fantastic Four.

I created the "Asstastic Four, featuring Deadpool". It was Wade as the fearless leader (lol), Ghost Rider as the obligatory fire-guy, Ms. Marvel as the token chick who's totally hawt for the leader (said Wade before she torched his ass), and Wolverine, because every team has Wolverine on it.

I think I finished it 4 times. When it first came out on the PS2 and last year on the 360. Last time we used the new characters. Realized Hulk was broken and only used him when we got stuck.

I got the PSP version, mostly for the fact that Captain Marvel was in it and I'm a Peter David fanboy.
My team tended to be Deapool, Captain Marvel, Captain America and whoever else was necessary. Often Wolverine.

I tended to let the CPU play the stronger characters like Cap, Thor, Torch, Sabes, Wolvie, and Ghostie while I played almost exclusively Deadpool for the main storyline.

But most for the simulator missions I mixed up the characters and had fun with different lineups.

Yeah, I played Deadpool after I had a little bit of fun with new heroes as they appeared.

My Team was usually Deadpool, Carol Danvers, Spider Woman and whoever I felt like at the time.

I played through the game on the PSP for some reason. I think I didn't have a PS3 at the time, and our PS2 was nigh-deceased. It also seemed like the kind of game that wouldn't play well on the PC. Maybe I should find a PS3 copy and give it another play sometime!

I guess I shouldn't say most of the simulator missions. But it was nice to use different characters in the simulator.

So...this doesn't really continue from the first game? With all the possible endings?

Nope. And it reeeally irks me. I mean sure, Civil War was recent... but c'mon.

I really wanted it to tie in more to the first game. Which is why I supported the Galactus storyline possibility. Hell, I want Secret Wars -_-

Betcha he'll have the movie form as an alternate uniform.


...either that, or he'll be running from commands like /execute and /decapitate.

Nah, they confirmed way back that there would be no movie costumes.

Wouldn't have minded if they gave him one...if it came with Laser Eye Beams, though.

Movie Deadpool as a boss character, then? I mean, then it'd be perfect. We could have Real!Deadpool fangasm over how awesome his movie counterpart is (in that "oh, god I always wanted to have those powers!" way that we all know he would) and then have DP kick his ass.

I have to say - I'd be more comforted just to have a trailer of Deadpool talking. However, the gunplay is certainly awesome and seeing him use the teleporter again is nice.

Well, I'd assume they'd either get John Kassir to come back, or maybe get Steve Blum to do him, since he did the job in the Wolverine game. Heck, Nolan North does a lot of video games, and he was great in Hulk Vs. Wolverine. No bad choices out of that lot.
