Fans of the Marvel Vs Capcom series have been crying out for a new edition for years, especially since Marvel Vs Capcom 2 saw a release on the PSNetwork and Xbox Live in 2009. Although upon release on the game started to feel old after a few rounds. So just how well could a third game do in the current gaming climate, could it be like the case of Street Fighter 4 where Capcom dragged the series into something that didn't feel dated and once again fun to play.
This screen shot doesn't do the game justice at all :(
Well all I can say is a resounding "Hell Yeah!" Marvel Vs Capcom 3 feels fresh and dragged the old and tired gameplay of the previous games and bitch slapped them into submission. Marvel Vs Capcom 3 (who for the rest of this piece will be referred to as MvC3) feels fresh and is quite unlike any other fighting game around at the moment. (Not really hard since there aren't to many fighting games being made these days) The new additions to the roster for the most part are a great addition, especially Chris Redfield, Dante and X-23 who really seem to shine through. (Which is surprising as I thought Chris would be one of the worst characters to play as in the game)
Galactus is such a happy chap
That doesn't mean to say that all the new additions are good though, I really don't like the way Wesker, Dormammu and Task Master play in the game. (Especially the Task Master who just seems like he isn't worth using at all) Which is a shame as if they had been given the same treatment as Chris Redfield's character they would have been welcome additions. As you would expect the game does have some issues with the balance of the characters, but this isn't really a major issue and shouldn't take away to much from your experience with the game. Graphically the game looks fantastic and is a joy to watch as well as play (You will notice a lot of little things in the background by watching that you don't see when playing)
The endings look like they are straight out of a comic book
Capcom have really done a fantastic job with MvC3 and created an amazing reboot of the series, at the moment while writing this I am watching my brother in law play the game against my nephew which is truly how all fighting games should be played. You can't beat playing games against an opponent in the same room. (How else can you look at their face after you just beat there ass and call them a loser) MvC3 is a great game that you really should experience if only to see the advancements that have been made and gaze upon its great looking graphics. If I had to rate the game Marvel Vs Capcom 3 deserves a solid 8 out of 10. So what you waiting for? You should be playing the game by now before Deadpool comes round and whoops your ass for not owning it already!
