Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 (Xbox 360)

The sequel to 2006's Marvel Ultimate Alliance, number 2 brings some new fighters but alos an array of technical oddities. From an isometric camera view, you lead a team of four Marvel stars through hordes of expendable henchmen and glowering robots, occasionally taking detours to solve simple puzzles and bash on the villains standing between you and fist-pumping victory.
