Enter contests if you're a VIP, make custom wallpapers if you're not.

Activision has updated the official Marvel: Ultimate Alliance website with some goodies for everyone, and bonus stuff for people who pre-order the game.

The Team Builder on the site's front page allows for anyone to select a custom team of four Marvel stars and make a personalized desktop wallpaper. There is only a short list of characters to choose from right now, but more will be added as more characters are revealed leading up to the game's release.

People that want to go one step farther can pre-order the game at any EB Games or GameStop store and gain access to the VIP area of the site. Extras for VIPs include a look behind-the-scenes, trailers for different characters, a character-unlocking cheat code for the full game, and a screensaver that updates as new characters are added to the site. Activision is also planning contests in which winners can win items like an Xbox 360 or posters signed by Stan Lee. If you don't want to pre-order the game, but want access to the goods, you can just ask someone who is a VIP for an invite to the secret parts of the website.

Marvel: Ultimate Alliance is expected to be available for Wii before the end of the year.

Santa Monica, CA – August 29, 2006 – Activision, Inc.
