 Marvel Super Heroes review @ www.vidgames.com
Selecting which gem is readily available is accomplished by pushing select, and using these gems is performed similiarly to doing a super move, and will augment a character's particular ability, depending on the gem, for a small period of time.
With all these super high jumps, combos, infinity gems, supers and special moves you would think it'd take a pretty heavy toll on the Playstation's abilities, especially with all of the animation it has to display in relation to the everchanging gameplay circumstances.
Greatly eases the use of gems and infinity moves on the standard pad.

 KMC Forums - Living Tribunal vs thanos with the infinity gauntlet
The 6 gems of the guantlet were all originally owned by some sort of Elders...and NONE of them knew the full potential of their power except the owner of the reality gem.
The gems in the Infinity Gaunlet are the remnants of a dude called "The One that Once Was" (or something similar) and this dude was pretty much the embodiment of all that was - there was no Eternity, Death, Living Tribunal etc....
I wouldn't say the six infinity gems are more powerful than the Tribunal but I'd say if the Tribunal had to forcefully remove the gems from a wielder, he'd come up short and give up.
