Q: What is the Ultimate Universe?

A: The Ultimate Universe is basically a modern re-imagining of the 
Classic Marvel Universe. It retains the spirit of Classic Marvel while
re-inventing most of the origins. In the Ultimate Universe, Peter Parker
is still 15 years old, and instead of being a photographer, he maintains
the Daily Bugle website.

While most of the origins are very similar to their classic origins, some
are drastically different. The Ultimate version of the Green Goblin isn't 
a guy in a costume with a glider, he's an actual goblin monster.
And for Ultimate Venom, instead of the suit being an alien symbiote,
it's a man-made organism designed to cure cancer, but went horribly
wrong.

The Ultimate Universe does put off most Classic Marvel fans. But
for those with an open mind, like myself, it's a wonderfully fresh
take on characters I've grown up with.


Q: Is this game worth renting or buying?

A: Nether! Why are you reading this? Run away!!!

Ha Ha, but seriously, with the excellent main story, all the different
side quests, and all the extra costumes to unlock, and you're lookin 
at 36-40 hours of gameplay with lots of replayability. In other words,
this game is most definitely worth buying, especially if you're a fan
of the comic series.


Q: I've done everything necessary to unlock the costumes, why
don't I have them?

A: Unfortunately, it appears that you can only unlock the costumes
after you beat the game. It's kind of a bummer, but they're still cool!

Q: Can you get to the Statue of Liberty in the game?

A: I've tried, but I've failed miserably. It seems that there is an 
invisible barrier with the 'Area Unavailable' message preventing
you from reaching it. Oh well.
