stanlee

Stan Lee stars in the latest video for Vicarious Visions’ Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2.

In it, his coolness talks about how superheroes don’t need to be registered with the government-unless they turn bad. But then, they are no longer superheroes at that point.

Basically, it’s a video with Stan Lee in it – which is good. Watch it below the break.

Game’s out September 15.

captainamericaa

If you watched the new trailer for Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 we posted on Friday you may have noticed at the end of it that the word “Fusion” was no longer in the title — and for good reason: it’s been removed.

A spokesperson for Activison confirmed the name change when contacted by Evil Avatar saying:

“The title previously announced was a working title, and they decided to go with simply ‘Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2′ for the name.”

So there ya go.
