I got so much replay value out of X-men Legends and Ultimate Alliance mostly because they were both 'switch your brain off games'.  No real challenge to them, and about as deep as a shallow puddle, but great fun.  Then again I've always enjoyed hack and slash button mashers, and that's about all they are.

The story for ultimate alliance was still pretty interesting and much better than the sequel, but they aren't masterpieces, but not every game has to be in order to be a good game. I got what I wanted which was to play as different superheroes and use their powers.
