IF WE OWNED: MARVEL ULTIMATE ALLIANCE

A lot of great things have been created over the years - and every once in a while the creators and contributors of CFC like to envision if we owned (or had the licensed rights) to other characters.

In this case, we were thinking about the MARVEL ULTIMATE ALLIANCE video game (were disappointed at the second one since it wasn't like the first) but were chatting about a potential relaunch of a THIRD!

Considering the story line needs at least 5 areas, plus an overarching story, so we looked at the following:

1. Start with HOUSE OF M !
2. Come back into the action with CIVIL WAR !
3. Then SECRET INVASION !
and then three secret side missions if you find the way to unlock them:
    SHADOWLAND, WORLD WAR HULK and SPIDER-ISLAND !
4. Seige
5. Fear Itself !    and then
6. Avengers versus X-Men !

In each case, you can build teams on BOTH SIDES !  

Maybe we may need to keep thinking since ULTIMATE ALLIANCE 3, 4 and 5 could all be created out of the stories above!

Rethinking... we came back with:

ULTIMATE ALLIANCE 3: DARK REIN, SIEGE and FEAR ITSELF combined into one storyline!

Asgard on Earth, Dark Avengers are the main villains... until an even larger group of villains are empowered by hammers of Thor! A selection of the Heroes of the Marvel Universe - with even more costumes - comes to save the day (and provide some awesome video-game play)!

Choose from:
- THOR
- CAPTAIN AMERICA
- MOON KNIGHT
- IRON MAN
- SPIDER-MAN
- GIANT MAN
- TIGRA
- WOLVERINE
- IRON FIST
- CAGE
- COLOSSUS
- STORM
- BLACK PANTHER
- BEAST
- NICK FURY
- THING
- VISION
- CYCLOPS
- and more!

ULTIMATE ALLIANCE 4: HOUSE of M, Hope, X-Sanction and X-Men Versus Avengers!

"No more mutants" begins this video game. Create 2 teams of heroes! One, a team of Avengers! the other, a team of X-Men! Battle with them, battle against them! Multi-level play where each team is moved through various challenges - some against each other - in order to stop the Phoenix Force and return "Hope" to the world of mutants!

The second phase - the Phoenix Force arrives and makes the Phoenix Five! A little change from the storyline here, and a big battle results in the Phoenix Five against everyone your two teams! If the members of the Phoenix Five are part of your team, they would be removed from the team! The heroes left over after the big battle join forces into one team.

Starting line-ups:

AVENGERS:
- THOR
- CAPTAIN AMERICA
- IRON MAN
- GIANT MAN
- SCARLET WITCH
- DAREDEVIL
- THING
- DOCTOR STRANGE
- RED HULK (changing costumes can let him be GREEN HULK, GREY HULK, or General Ross in the LEVIATHAN armour)
- HUMAN TORCH
- VISION
- HAWEYE
- BLACK WIDOW
- PROTECTOR (various costumes would go into Marvel Boy, etc)
- WAR MACHINE
- BLACK PANTHER

X-MEN:
