I...want...Marvel Ultimate Alliance...NOW.

I stopped by Gamestop and bought Tekken 5, because, well, I felt like buying Tekken 5 (I actually felt more like renting it, but none of the four Blockbusters near my house had it. :/) While I'm there, the lady asks me if I'm looking forward to any releases. I tell her Superman Returns, Justice League Heroes, and, of course, Marvel Ultimate Alliance. And, of course, she hits me with the schpeel about putting five bucks down on MUA, I get this VIP code thing for the site and a code that unlocks the Silver Surfer in the game.

Typically I hate these sales pitches, but, you know...I was going to buy it, anyway; this is a MUST-HAVE on my list. High priority. I usually rent, don't buy, but some games I just have to buy. And I've got five bucks to spare, so I bite and put five bucks down.

So...well...I went to the site and I used the codes and I saw all the 'EXCLUSIVE' pictures and...I want this game bad. I've got this major comic geek explosion going on. I'm thinking about all the teams I could use...

The NEW Fantastic Four

HULK
GHOST RIDER
SPIDER-MAN
WOLVERINE

In case you were wondering, this was just a joke comic. Damn funny, though.

The New Avengers

Captain America
Iron Man
Luke Cage
Spider-Woman

The Old Avengers

Captain America
Iron Man
Hulk (God, the Hulk better be an unlockable)
Thor

Super Soldiers

Deadpool
Captain America
Black Panther
Daredevil (Wolverine would be a better fit, but I'm trying to avoid using him)

My actual team will probably be like this...

Iron Man: He'll probably be tamed a bit from XMLII, but he should still have the power to be the team's heavy-hitter.
Spider-Man: A fast guy, quick. You need a guy like him, keeps it balanced. Plus, I like Spidey, so...
Warbird: God, I hate that name. They even admit it's silly in the comics. Most people call her Ms. Marvel; still hokey, but better. She's like Rogue. Good flyer, good damage dealer. Need a woman for PCness.
Dr. Strange: If he's anything like the comics, he'll be a walking deus ex machina.

...yeah, this is sad...
