Today, and MUA
Nov. 24th, 2006 09:58 pmEnjoyed day two of Thanks for Nuttin, and it was nice. Slept in, played Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, and spent time w/ Cynra. We went to a Dr's appt and then over to the Ashley sale.
redeem147, sorry, but the [secret items] were out. We picked up a few things, including a hook for grilling and a gift for our niece. I like hooks.
Now: Marvel: Ultimate Alliance.
Sure, it suffer some from the Ultimateization of the thing. Captain America should START with wings on his head, and Thor with wings on his helmet. And when it gets down to it it's just a pretty button mashing game with slightly less strategy than Fluxx.
But it's enjoyable, though. Really, the amount of Marvel trivia in there made me giggle.
Here's a list of some things that will tell you if you will like the game:
A) You know what OHOTMU stands for.
B) You have ever consulted OHOTMU to settle a disagreement.
C) You like MODOK.
D) You found this joke funny.

It's well written, it's respectfully handled, and it's beautifully drawn. Your loss, man.

Date: 2006-11-25 05:12 am (UTC)I see - so it's all about you saving face about a story you haven't read yet... :P
What if B**** never died? Apart from an annual in the late 80's where other characters who'd come back from apparent death made an appearance, the only one saying B**** was dead was Cap - and even then he called out his name as soon as he came to in Avengers #4.
Everyone comes back, eventually, Justin - U**** B**'s back, in a way, in Peter David's FRIENDLY NEIGHBOURHOOD SPIDER-MAN for cripes sake. You want they should kill both of them again now so you'd be right? That's kinda cold, isn't it? :P
