- With the debut of X-Men 97, we get into arguably one of the most requested retrospectives on this channel. X-Men Legends is the precursor to one of my favorite games ever: Marvel Ultimate Alliance. With many of you knowing my love for that game, it's come highly recommend and I'm happy to say it's been an absolute treat all these years later.

The X-Men Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance desperately need ports to modern consoles
Yes
Hm wait, the license with Activision and Marvel is over. It is totally possible to re-release this series of games
Ultimate alliance kinda had one, can’t believe me buying that ended up being a rare lucky grab since it got delisted.
Sucks ult alliance got delisted but agree. Legends 1&2
💯
If ever a game needed a remaster. These games were sooooo much better than ultimate alliance
Just bring the camera a little closer, upgrade the graphics. It would be perfect
Bro, ultimate alliance 1 is still like, a pretty top tier marvel game, ultimate 2 and 3 were ass, but ultimate alliance 1 is still like, the mecha of marvel games. Definitely superior to x men legends 1 and 2. Legends 1 and 2, and ultimate alliance 1 need a remaster
Nah honestly I think Ultimate Alliance was the peak of the franchise. For me it goes MUA > XML2 > XML > MUA2.
It's 720p on the OG Xbox and it looks fantastic really.
Ultimate Alliance never hooked me like how XML1 and 2 did. I dunno, why exactly. Maybe there were just too many different heroes? I liked the team feel of X-Men.
Yes sir it's about time. X-Men legends 2 is even better
I remember hearing 👂 “Combo Combo Combo” back to back😭💀
X-men legends 2 and marvel ultimate alliance 1 were peak video games. Two of the best superhero games
I played it back around launch and MANNNN… Playing as Jean Grey and using telekinesis felt EXACTLY how I wanted it. So so so good.
Yessss rouge too!!!
@@ballerinafromtheblock AND ICEMAN!
It felt great playing as magneto in legends 2
I agree 😊
You can cheese a lot of levels with jean
Xmen legends 2 put me on to marvel more than anything else
XL2 was a legit comic book masterpiece, amazing presentation of lore for a new fan
@@Healthy_Toki exactly
Nightcrawler was my go to character this game needs a remaster
Once you got him leveled up, Nightcrawler was a beast of combo destruction that no one could touch!
X-Men Legends, X-Men Legends 2, Marvel Ultimate 1 and 2, heck even 3, good stuff!
3 is TERRIBLE
@@salient6663 is amazing. Stop your nonsense.
What was wrong with 3? I enjoyed it. @@salient666
@@KingOfThaDead64
3 was too grindy (I say this as someone who unlocked all characters and costumes and maxed out several characters) but it had the most impressive roster in a Marvel game outside of Marvel Heroes Omega.
@@SeanUCF that's fair.
I remember doing multiple playthroughs with this game, and after I determined which characters I loved more, I made sure to focus on powering them up all the way. Getting characters fully powered was so satisfying. My go-tos were Cyclops, Storm, Jean Grey, Nightcrawler and Wolverine.
If you think Cyclops is weak, you’re playing him wrong. You can annihilate bosses with his optic blast. Also when he’s in the party, Combos do way more damage and give you a ton of XP.
One thing that is worth mentioning about danger room missions, you get items from them as long as the mission isn't beaten, after you beat it you can no longer earn items, loot, health and energy vials etc
This game holds a very special place in my childhood memories. I easily put at least 100 hours into that game. Played it with multiple people so they would understand how amazing it was. I gotta play it again as an adult.
Don't do it bro. It'll ruin it
@@Godspeedxofficial748y?
My favorite thing about Legends is how they lean into the Marvel Ultimate universe as far as character designs.
Yup, the original runs of Ultimate Marvel and Ultimate Spider-Man were great. Then they ruined it all.
Makes sense with it being the same general timeframe
Grew up on this game playing it with my brother.. absolutely legendary game
one distinct thing that i really loved about this one over the second one is the announcer hyping yelling “COMBO” over and over again
for some reason the announcer in the second game wasn’t as hyped
Good memories of me and the boys knocking this one out in my buddy's spider-filled basement 😂
One of the best games ever made
Yoooo wait until you get to Xmen legends 2. Its so good.
Its either Marvel Alliance or Lengends 2 that are the best in this series
My favorite Deadpool in those games, John Kassir did a great job in voice acting the character. Also the best Wolverine, Steve Blum is a legend.
I think legends 2 is the best gameplay and RPG wise. There was a lot to sink your teeth into that was dumbed down in MuA. The story is a little weirdly paced, though.
Yes I played that game way too much 😂❤
X-men legends II is a Great game w/ soundtrack and characters and writing, etc. smooths out the rougher edges of the 1st game
X Men Legends I’ve beat way over 8 times this game right here was my shit! So many different team play throughs I’ve done. The OST for this game was a 10 for me! Hope you play through the whole game ! 😌
X-Men Legends 2 is one of my favorite games of all time
BRO!!!!!!!!!! LETS F*CKING GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
X-Men Legends 2 for the best builds. It had actual RPG with stats, passive skills, and active skills. Wish they'd go back to basics and bring that all back and do X-Men Legends 3.
XMen Legends 2 and Marvel Ultimate Alliance 1 were my favorite from this era
X-men legends 2 is one of my all time favorite games ever and ultimate alliance 1
This game made me love Magma because she was so fun to use in this, and it's made her the most underrated X-Man for me, for some odd reason the sequel did the same for Sunfire lol, probably my attempt to have a Magma substitute.
I love that it's patrick Stewart's voice ìn that intro X-Men legends ad blur studios has awesome cgi shorts
XMen Legends 2 was elite. Once I beat it I wasn’t ready for it to end
I want X-Men legends 3
Just not featuring modern Marvel
@@mbii7667 I mean sure buy there are cool stuff with modern marvel
@@NadeemShekh-uy9zn no
Fuck yea
Bruv I’ve been saying this. They literally end 2 with the Mr. sinister cliffhanger, 3 had to have been the plan at some point. Tf happened? 😭
Wish this would get a re release on the new console's these games were super fun
One of my favorite games when I was a kid!
This was i think my first og xbox game. Loved it. As a kid loved it had so much fun. Just a amazing game.
I recently bought this game and its sequel for my OG xbox. They are soo good.
Legends 1&2 so great. Wish theyd get a collection
Can't wait to see this, I actually have this game on the original Xbox for sale at my video game booth
I remember playing this with my sister years ago.
I remember spamming Storms Tornado attack, or using Wolverine(My sister) as throwing weapon with Rogue.
I hold X Men Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance close to my heart. I loved those games as a kid.
X men legends and ultimate alliance were gaming pinnacles of my childhood
my favorite out of all the legends and ultimate alliance games. for me it never got better than x-men legends 1!
I actually played it again since last week and I just finished the level where Magneto and the Sentinels came to the Front Lawn of the Mansion! I just love this game and I love playing Rogue! She’s my favorite X-Man ever!
This series is dear to me, as it brings back memories of me and friend just absolutely falling in love with this game. This game is 20 years old… I didn’t play this game when it came out. I was a few years late to it but, my friend and I (even as adults) stayed up all night playing 1&2.
I’m wishing for a remaster or a new XMen Legends 3. I loved this game as a kid, Wolverine was my favourite character especially with his healing factor, also loved Nightcrawler and Storm. I found some of the dialogue from the enemies funny such as “Surprise, surprise” or “This is gonna be fun” from the Morlocks also the guy shouting ‘Combo’ every few seconds was hilarious🤣.
Love this game. I remember getting the infamous green screen of death(caused by having a certain combination of characters at a certain point in the game), but it was fixable if you'd change up your team
I remember running into that as well. It was one of those occasions in games, you try to work around the issue.
X-men Legends 3 or remake of the first two games be awesome
I LOVEEEE X-MEN LEGENDS! 🙀😻
I never played Legends but before Marvel Ultimate Alliance I had only watched the movies and cartoons. MUA with trivia and the roster taught me a lot about the Marvel Universe.
Loved this game.
Man, X-Men legends was such a fun game. I remember late game Gene Gray storm gets so powerful. They start throwing the enemies through walls and the environment. It felt so epic being a kid and I’m like this is a battle for real.
fav part was cyclops 'OPTIC RAGE" shout when u do the ultimate move, felt so powerful :P
I truly enjoyed this your video on this game. This is one of my most cherished childhood games and I appreciate how you reviewed not just the game, but the box art as well. I’ve always been a fan of the X-Men! Great work! ✊🏿👌🏿🙏🏿
I used to always have cyclops on my team and I would put all his points into stamina for mutant power, and the whole game it was unlimited optic blasts for me.
Literally the greatest X men game ever!!! Iceman, cyclops, Jean, and storm is OP
One of my favorite games of all time 😁😁😍I'm so surprised you haven't played this before matty bro but yeah love this game. I hope Microsoft can get Activision to remake it or remaster the franchise.
This game was amazing me and my cousin got so much playtime on deck 😢❤
Played a little of this game with my cousin back in the day
These games were so good, so many hours spent on them back in the PS2 era ahhh the best! Ultimate Alliance 3 was great and all but I would really love to have a X-men Legends 3 where it just focuses on them. Or at the very least give us remasters :)
I did a speed run a few months ago. I find myself replaying it every so often. By far, best xmen games. There needs to be a push in the gaming community for more games like this. By yourself or with a friend great game.
This came out during a time when great Marvel games were in abundance. Now it's really only Spider-Man carrying this medium for Marvel.
LET’S GOOOOOOO!!! I didn’t know you were actually gonna go back to X-Men Legends!!! I figured Ultimate Alliance was the closest we were gonna get. What a treat, you’re the fucking man
legends 1&2 are both great games and i would say better than ultimate alliance.
edit: to elaborate the legends games were great imo because of the stacked moves list for each character, the lore and stories presented(i forget if it was legends 1 or 2 that had the sentinel flashback mission. i loved that one a lot.), and for the visuals at the time. i especially liked legends 2 because of getting to play as magneto was really fun. when your in the middle of a boss battle and your spamming your best moves is when the game shines brightest. its like gauntlet evolved, and perhaps the groundwork for the dota type games of today?
My God, this is fucking terrifying. Also, I'm all for the Eddy Burback Cinematic Universe with Drew and Jakey, I need an entire video with the three of you 🙏
This and the second game hold a special place in my heart
Legends 1 and 2 clear UA 1 2 and 3 for me. Legends 2 clears all without a sweat.
Legends 1 and 2 were some of best times I had as I kid playing video games. In 2 you could unlock IronMan as a secret character.
This and its sequel were two of my favoeite games back in the day. I had them both on Xbox and it was a BALL playing them.
Cyclops was surprisingly fun to play throughout legends 1 & 2 and ultimate alliance. I’m not usually a big projectile focused type player, but love playing cyclops in these games.
These were my favourite co-op games on the ps2
I was so obsessed with these games back in the day!
I remember both games. Loved them. Me and my brother use to play them a lot.
Love how these games have hidden characters if you find collectables. In the 2nd one I think it was you could unlock iron man by finding his bits of armour.
Broooooooooo I can’t believe you’re trying this game for the first time. Playing this game on the og Xbox with my childhood best friend is one of my most cherished memories. I’ll also never forget being in a game stop a couple of years later and seeing the sequel!
Powering up Beast and leaping across the screen to save the day...miss this game.
I always played as storm cause she could fly. Never had beast in my group, was he good? Or why would you use him?
@@fernathebest414 yeah, you could pinball into enemies creating combo. He really didn't bring much utility. I think his ultimate was orbital bombardment, It was useful.
I used him cause Beast is cool.
Great game have a lot of fun memeories with my buddy Ruben (RIP)
This is one of my all time favorite games I've ever played
It's About Ph'n time!!!!!!!!
X-Men legends 2 is the greatest X-Men game ever to this day
X-Men Legends 1&2 is my favorite ARPG series of all time. Marvel Ultimate Alliance does not even compare. I love these games so much. I'm happy you got to play for the first time.
So glad you're giving this game more exposure! The legends games are great and IMO more enjoyable than Ultimate alliance which fun fact by direct admission of the Devs Ultimate alliance literally is just a modded version of X-Men Legends
XML crawled so MUA could walk. Loved this game 🎮
An all time favorite that ive been waiting for a port for
I remember this one. It's the first GameCube game I ever owned as a child. 5 siblings came home to see a new GameCube (newly released) and a copy of xmen legends on the stairs. No one asked for one, no one hinted at wanting a GameCube.
❤thanks for thinking ahead mom. Your the GOAT
LET'S ROCK, FREAK!!
I loved this game..
Awesome, Matty!! Personally, I've played the crap out of this game on Xbox, PS2 and GameCube.
Big fan of X-Men Legends, X-Men Legends 2 and the first Marvel Ultimate Alliance.
This game is ridiculously good. Underrated
I think I've played this? Time sure flies though.
I remember playing this game so much and not having a memory card at the time, so I’d either leave my ps2 game on for a LONG time, or essentially restart every time I played
first time!! damn i know you loved this sht
Jean Grey mental abilities were completely broken OP
I still play this game, it's sequel and both alliances once a year.
My entire childhood, these games are literally a part of my personality
I loved this game so much. Both have so great stories and rosters
My version of X-Men legends two I got to the very end of the game and then my cousin corrupted my data. I was so pissed and yes, X-Men legends two Was Way better. The game was so freaking fun. Oh my God, Jean and storm. I’ll never forget.
Wow you took it back bro wow good memories
You mentioned the voice cast, and I just have to say, whoever did Prof. X did a wonderful job. Dude sounds exactly like the movies.
I remember loving the cutscenes!!!!!!
Now Raven is trapped in Call of Duty purgatory
These and like Justice League Heroes, the Champions games, and the Balders Gates were so mush fun back in those daze
Loved this game back in the day!
I was OBSESSED with this game as a kid
