Review Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order (Switch) - Arcade Brawling Is Back, Baby
Hero syndrome
For years - ten of them, to be exact - the Marvel Ultimate Alliance games have retreated into the kind of obscurity only wistful nostalgia can occasionally dispel. They weren’t particularly outstanding games, but they were packed full of characters, lore, and storylines pulled straight out of Marvel’s vast archive. This was back...

Talking Point Great Game, Poor Performance - When Does A Bad Frame Rate Not Really Matter?
Shh, don't tell Digital Foundry
It seems that no game release is safe nowadays without frame rate graphs and resolutions being counted. That is fair enough, as games should ship in a competent and playable condition, but it's easy to forget that we're often spoiled in this modern gaming era. We gasp if gameplay regularly dips below 30fps, and with...

Best game in series, and one of the best on the system.
Great game. Even better once I realized everything wasn't going to be easy and I would need to start grinding some characters to level up. There is also a big learning curve with all the buffs and upgrades that are found in the lab. Love it.
I really hope Yundu is added as a DLC character.
Not very fun. Enemies are stun-locking me to death. I feel like magicharp flopping about. Character roster is excellent and VA and music is good.
Buy Diablo 3 instead.
The was one of 8 games I got with my Switch Lite. Least favorite by a margin. I have no interest in playing this game all the way through.
