Ultimate Alliance DLC for 360 News
Xbox 360 News by Tom Bramwell
Marvellous news for Ultimate Alliance fans, and not just that we won't be able to use that joke again for a while: April will see the release of downloadable content for the Xbox 360 version, introducing eight new playable characters.
With the new packs on your hard disk, you'll be able to add The Incredible Hulk, Magneto, Hawkeye, Sabretooth, Doctor Doom, Cyclops, Nightcrawler and even Venom into your games - providing you're prepared to cough up the requisite Microsoft points.
Activision says that the individual "Hero Pack" and "Villain Pack" (a split down company lines, you understand) will go for 500 Microsoft points (GBP 4.25 / EUR 5.82) apiece, while a "Combined Hero and Villain Pack" will cost you 800 Microsoft points (GBP 6.80 / EUR 9.30).
What's more, each character will have their own signature powers, skins, dialogue, conversations and even unlockable achievement points - suggesting that Marvel: Ultimate Alliance could be one of the first game to offer the extra 250 points that Microsoft's new gamerscore policy allows.
We'll let you know when it all goes live.

"Bit steep for a few characters but a grand selection"
Haven't got the game, and have no interest in it whatsoever. But I actually think that this is a great offer, especially when compared to the DLC that other games offer. |

My pants are aglow. I was just pondering whether or not to trade this one in the other day as, despite my love for all things Marvel, I couldn't see myself playing through it again. But this is a solid line-up of new folk, and the additional Gamerpoints is incentive enough to give them a spin. It'd be nice if there was at least one new mission to tie them in though.
Surprised to see Hulk in there - I was under the impression he was omitted because Vivendi hold the rights. I'm pretty sure THQ's license is why The Punisher hasn't appeared. |

@ DanWhitehead:
It depends what license deal they have with Marvel. It's not uncommon for films and books (or comics in this case) to be considered difference franchises even though they're based on the same material. For instance there were 2 sets of Lord of the Rings games released, one using the film license the other the book license. |
