Wow... I hope that both Marvel vs Capcom 2 and Tatsunoko vs Capcom are released here.

And then, by the end of the year, Marvel vs Capcom 3...

They more than likely got permission to release it, but didn't get the license back to start creating more games.

Hahaha. I was just singing this song a few days ago. It got stuck in my head because I was talking about how bad the song in SFIV is, and how the MvC2 song was even worse.

OCRemix had a great April Fool's Day this year.....

Lots of "damn" in this, so it might be NSFW.

I'd rather have SFIII or CvS2 but I won't NOT buy MvC2, lol.

If you want SFIII, go hunt down the Street Fighter Anniversary Collection for the Xbox. It comes with SFIII: Third Strike and the best version of SF2 in existence.

I have the PS2 version and no Xbox at all. Though I would argue HD Remix is the best SFII version. And furthermore I'd imagine the original Xbox online community is rather dead.

HD Remix was okay, but I ended up being kinda regretful that I spent the points on it.

I think I'm in the minority that just plain did not like Udon's new sprites... Cammy looks especially bad all around.

It's a pretty good year to be a fighting game fan. SFIV earlier in the year, KOF XII in the summer, Tekken 6 in the fall, and now this! And there's that game from the Guilty Gear developers coming too, right? Good times.

Ah man...Marvel vs Capcom on the XBLA. This is gonna kick some serious ass. Soul Calibur IV was a major letdown for me but this, Street Fighter IV and (hopefully) Tekken 6 will more than makeup for that.

If you can't swap the music DC style, this is a waste of time.

I still find it hard to believe Capcom is going to redraw 50-odd sprites when ST took forevvvvvvvvvver with its few frames and 12 characters. "Upmixed" sprites will look completely awful on HD screens (see Puzzle Fighter HD)

I play MvC2 on my 360 regularly and I think it looks just fine on HD. Only problem being, of course, animation glitches because of the shoddy back-compat.

Also, there's a lot of speculation that an HD version was worked on alongside the HD project for SFII, so it's entirely possible that an MvC2HD game could come out within a realistic time frame.

Looks fake, none of those achievement icons look real at all. You'd think rather then bland white blurs they'd incorporate the themes of marvel and capcom.

They probably will be colored. Xbox360achievements.org usually waits until they get official colors from the xbox.com tiles. Also, they usually dont just throw up fake lists... if it is on the site then it is probably coming.

Great news. I don't think anything will be redrawn, there's too many characters and too much effort for what the game's worth. I hope they at least put a graphics filter in there with the option to turn it off.

Please use the HDR netcode please, not the HF netcode. (I haven't played 4 online so I cannot comment on 4's netcode/lag.)

I wish they could balance it, but...that'd take forever. So I look forward to joining in with plenty of matches consisting of a team of any number of the following:

-Cable
-Sentinel
-Blackheart
-Dr. Doom
-Strider
-Magneto


...but I don't care.
DO WANT! NOW!!!!!!!!~!

Oh yeah I forgot about Storm too.

I've seen more people use War Machine than Iron Man, but I don't think either is considered top tier.

Some of the tournament stuff was just ridiculous. (I went to the midwest SF championships in Northbrook, IL back in the day with a car full of friends, and that was the first time we had seen the assist heavy/chip damage play that the east and west coast players were doing.)
Strider+Doom + rocks+satellites for dual chip damage...that sort of thing. o.O


One of my favorite 'fun' team is Venom/Bulletta/Hayato. =)

T. Boone(any type) Drill, baby drill!>:D
Spider-Man(capture type) Fast enough to keep a defense
Rogue.(Throw type) jump, dive kick, throw.

Sometimes I try Morrigan or BBH instead of Rogue.

Cable/Iron Man/Cyclops FTW.

I'm just glad this isn't a straight port or an Xbox Original. Even though the Xbox version is playable on 360 it has no online support. The achievements (if real) confirm online play. SF4 netcode is solid so I am guessing they will use the correct one (not HF).

But with the clamor I would be very surprised if this DOESN'T cost 1600 points. Since my Xbox version is playable and I get plenty of online action from SF4, it may be hard for me to purchase...

Please be HD Please be HD Please be HD

Its probably not HD, but man would that be awesome.

The sad thing is I had this game for the ps2 but I traded it in for Devil May Cry 2 (i know.. I know). Man.. If only I could go back in time and kick my own ass...
