Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (Series)

Post by Kaito-kun »

Announced at this year's San Diego Comic-Con, the official sequel to gaming's greatest crossover gets the Ultimate treatment, as Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 got announced! As we heard, it will have the original 36 characters from the previous version (plus the DLC characters) and have up to 12 new ones, which brings it to 50 characters in total, along with a Spectator Mode, a robust Online mode and rebalanced gameplay with more moves for specific characters (such as Ryu's Hyper Hadouken, which may bounce off walls). I can't say I feel this one. Unless they do something unexpected with it, I won't get it day 1 again. --Shadid

Release dates for UMvC3:
NA: November 15
Japan: November 17
Europe: November 18


Original post for MvC3:

Formally announced at Capcom's Captivate event earlier this year, brought back by popular demand, it's Marvel vs Capcom 3! Due out next March(-ish, no confirmed release date yet) I'm looking forward to this, it looks pretty and hopefully it should be as fun and stylish as previous entries in the series (and it's Japanese flavoured cousin, the fantastic Tatsunoko vs Capcom)

The Hulk
Captain America
Wolverine

It's all down to the Capcom characters for me, as soon as Spider-Man is announced that's my entire knowledge of Marvel in the game. Frank West is there so that's at least one cool character (he's covered wars).

BASELESS SPECULATION YOU SAY!!? Phoenix Wright, calling it, and someone from Breath of Fire to piss off the fans (just like Megaman Volnutt)

An announcement of Phoenix Wright in the game would make me wet myself with happiness. Wolverine vs Phoenix Wright would be a great match to see: "Graaaaah! I have metal bone claw things!!!" "OBJECTION! I have a pointing finger...OF JUSTICE!"

It's a courtroom, a defendent is standing is testifying, suddenly the camera pans to Matt Murdock who's grilling the defendent suddenly "OBJECTION!" the camera zooms with speedline and shit to Phoenix Wright! Then they fight.

Super skrull is quite a weird choice. He was an enemy of the Fantastic 4 in the seventies. He has all of there powers. Was never in the comics that much really, or was very popular either. Trish I know though Never heard of that Li bird though....

Super Skrull is awfully obscure but I guess it's a way to get the Fantastic 4 powers in without have seperate characters XD Would have prefered Lady over Trish.

Edit: Viewtiful Joe semi confirmed aswell.
