Hooray! More Men In Tights!
If the 20 playables weren't enough for you in Marvel: Ultimate Alliance (out of the 140 characters featured in the game), Activision has announced that eight more heroes and villains will be released in expansion packs via the Xbox Live Marketplace next month. And who, you ask?
* The Incredible Hulk
* Cyclops
* Nightcrawler
* Hawkeye
* Sabretooth
* Magneto
* Doctor Doom
* Venom
You'll also have the option to buy either the hero or villain pack for 500 Microsoft points ($6.25) each, or get both for a better bargain at 800 points ($10). The expansion packs will include new powers, team bonuses and costumes (and of course, achievements -- ten more to be exact). Hero and villain gamer pic packs will also be available for 80 points each ($ 1). While the expansion doesn't offer new environments or bosses, comic book geeks should be satisfied nonetheless.

Whatever Guy! I'll play you as soon as I write another post or three...
WAIT.....
They EXCLUDED the Hulk from release of the game?
That's retarded. He's one of the oldest and most famous Marvel Characters.
What, no love for the Wii version?
yeah no one else gets this shit. It's really pissing me off as I have the PC edition. Luckily the modders at marvelmods.com found a way to give the pc people Moonknight and Collosus (all the info was there just hidden away) but I don't know if they'll be able to crack this nut.
And the hulk was still under contract somewhere else.. I think Activision (might be wrong) so he could not go into the game until like.. March. Same with punisher who is still liscened elsewhere.
10 bucks for 8 new characters? Bleh.
