Marvel Ultimate Alliance [With Poster]

Thanks to this game, I was able to finish everything and go back to build a strong team of heroes. This will tell you everything you need to know about the game.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance is filled with hidden items, choices that change the story and puzzles that take some serious thought. This guide will help you not only get through the game and save the Marvel Universe, but it will teach you a few little known facts about Marvel comics (which will also help you get some serious XP). I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to see and do everything this great game offers

This is, as always from Bradygames, an excellent strategy guide. From trivia questions to cheat codes, this one has them all. The only thing not included? Which X-Man to kill at the end of Mephisto's Realm (and yes it does matter.) Hint: Don't kill the one who's known to come back from death.

This guide is required reading for any gaming fan of Marvel Ultimate Alliance who wishes to find everything but does not wish to invest significant time.

I've bought some Prima guides over the years, and sometimes feel like I was kinda ripped off. Not so with this one. The walkthrough is appropriately comprehensive and detailed, as should be expected. The playing tips actually exceed my expectations, though. For example, the writeups on each hero don't simply rank their powers on how much damage they do or how efficient they are, but also on how simple or complicated they are to use! This is very useful, especially for older, clumsier gamers like me. If Power A is "by the numbers" better than Power B, but requires some complex button manipulation to execute properly in the heat of battle, it's not that good for me. Nice to see a book that recognizes this principle. It reads like the authors really played the game a lot, and aren't just regurgitating design documentation or something. I'm about 3/5 through the game, and there don't seem to be any major changes to the game that make the guide book "outdated" by late code changes. I've run into a couple here and there, but they're all minor things, nothing that really seems to impact gameplay.
