If you did purchase them digitally and deleted them you can still re-download them.
They sadly were never released physically for Xbox One and PS4 upon re-release, however. You can still pick up used copies of the Marvel: Ultimate Alliance games. Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, or Wii owners need not fear, though. For example, both Transformers games went offline after being on sale there for years. Just a few days ago, you could pick up both games for $15.Īpparently, this is standard for Activision games whose licenses have expired. Unfortunately, there’s no option to purchase them anymore. Now, when you head on over to their Steam pages, the profile pages for both are still up. put out an article a few days ago warning readers it could be going offline soon because their licenses have since expired. As of Thursday night, you can no longer purchase it or its sequel from any online store, no matter the platform. Worse still: The fact Activision is charging $40 per game for the privilege.Sad news for Marvel: Ultimate Alliance fans. These are the sorts of ports I would’ve expected back in 2006/2007 when the games originally came out (during the PC’s darkest days). One Steam review says “Even Arkham Knight was less messed up,” and I can’t disagree. This Steam review is rated as the most helpful for Ultimate Alliance's PC port. Kotaku has a video if you want to hear the damage for yourself, though make sure to turn down your speakers.
Which is to say, there’s rampant hissing, popping, and crackling to deal with. Unless you’re still using a wired Xbox 360 controller, you can expect to contort your hands into all sorts of weird shapes in order to play-the Dash move is mapped to the Back button (or whatever the button with two squares is called on the Xbox One).Įven worse, Ultimate Alliance 2’s audio sounds like it took a break to make popcorn and bacon.
First of all, the games weren’t retrofitted with improved controller compatibility. Shame, because it’s a great action-RPG series. Don’t even touch this one with a ten-foot pole, lest the pole burst into flames too.
