      Yeah it was a bit tricky in some areas. And yeah I've kept a lot of my old games too. Which is why I've decided to start going through them with reviews. At least the superhero/comic book related ones lol

    Tony Jay also voiced Galactus in the second season of the 90’s fantastic four cartoon. It’s him I hear in my head whenever I see galactus in a comic.
    This was a fun game, although I never beat it. The sequel was even more fun for me.

    Love this. I find myself missing this game quite often and I keep coming back to it. The nostalgia is real! It's such an awesome game. Would love a brand new third person X-men game where you can play as several X-men with different superpowers and explore the X-Mansion and such, fighting classic villains.

    • @ChannelNerdgasm
      @ChannelNerdgasm  Před 4 lety +2

      When I was younger I thought that way, but I think if you play it enough, you learn its patterns and the best abilities to level up for each of the characters. Certain ones work better with others - in combination. I do think this game gets easier as it goes on though. The hardest level is the HAARP facility when you go underground - at least in my opinion.

    I actually like this game much more than any other series. Much more grounded, not spamming enemies, and limited energy so need more proper use of abilities
    Legends2 has various abilities but everything feels the same. The plot is weaker i think. MUA1 still feels like Legends2, which I’m not quite like. And MUA2 is like a warriors game. Spamming enemies with abilities.
    And Iceman normal attack is so powerful, much stronger than Wolverines o.o Literally one punch everyone from mid game

    You can wait until the next mansion interlude to talk to Nightcrawler again and play the Sentinel flashback then when you're at a higher level.
    I think the same goes for the Juggernaut flashback.
    But there is a point where it is no longer available as you can't interact with every character at all mansion interludes.
    Edit: sorry I was wrong about this ; I tried this in my last game recently and it didn't work.
    You get the same conversation , but the prompt to activate the flashback does not appear.
    You'll have to play the flashbacks when they're offered , before leaving the mansion.

    0:57 you might be the first person to point out the discrepencies in some of Xavier's lines in this game not being all from Patrick Stewart. I didn't pinpoint it until now when you did the side-by-side but you're absolutely correct, they don't sound completely alike. (The final cutscene, and the Character Select when you select Jubilee). Judging from the credits, Tom Kane must have been the uncredited voice double.

    • @ChannelNerdgasm
      @ChannelNerdgasm  Před 3 lety +2

      I just do it manually. Because I make sure the points go where I want them to. Makes the game easier. Maxing Wolverine's healing factor as soon as you can is a lifesaver in areas. Same goes for Cyclops' and Storm's leadership skill. If I recall, it increases the XP you earn for the team.

      Manually , because you can't reassign stat or skill points in this game.
      And unless you're going to level grind past level 35 , you need to put those points where they do you the most good.

    as good as MUA istheres no infinite combo like in the xmen legends. i default to spamming abilities in those games instead of melee.
