That key art is so good.
ReplyDeleteSuch a great surprise.
Very nice. Great excuse to enjoy MVC again
ReplyDeleteA collection port from Capcom? Shocking. 🔁🤣
ReplyDeletePeople have been asking for these games for a long time, it’s been well overdue.
DeleteI never understood why y'all would bash on collections, especially for games for decades old consoles that a lot of people don't own anymore. How are collections a bad thing, when it allows new people to experience these games and old fans to experience them?
DeleteNot JUST a collection. These games have online and rollback netcode. It’s more or less everything any fan of these games could have wanted.
DeleteThis is awesome, hopefully this gets a physical release.
ReplyDeleteIt probably will, their other fighting game collections were physically released.
DeleteFrom what I saw online both the Ps4 and Switch will be getting a physical release.
DeleteNext Trigger VS. Capcom? C'mon. 🥺
ReplyDeleteYooo MvC2 with rollback netcode? Yes please!
ReplyDeleteGreat games rescued from obscurity, all of them this time even. #FreeMvC2 success!
ReplyDeleteThe kinda MegaMan you love to see! Man that art looks soo good! MvC is back, feelsgoodman. Kind of a miracle that gives me some more megaman hope. Today's a good day.
ReplyDeleteIt’s great seeing MvC 2 so easily available now. Now maybe if we can start looking at a way to get Tatsunoko vs. Capcom too…
ReplyDeletePersonally, I never got to truly play these games so I can't wait to get this. I'm most excited to play as Spider-Man and Venom.
ReplyDeleteYeah, also Roll is apparently no longer a hidden character in mvc1... I guess they're gonna make her visible in the character select screen without any need for cheats and stuff
ReplyDeleteUnpopular opinion but I think mvc1 is way better than 2.
ReplyDeleteMaybe for the more subjective stuff like music and presentation, but MvC1 was beyond broken in terms of gameplay. It made 2 look well made and balanced in comparison.
DeleteHopefully they're using this release to garner interest in another MVC title. We need a redemption after the flop that was MVCI.
ReplyDeleteActually MvCI is the second best selling game in the series.
DeleteMy baby brother is buying Marvel vs. Capcom Collection for his Sony PlayStation 4 console to play it on Sony PlayStation 5 console. The Sony PS4 and Sony PS5 are compatible game console ports. So the game should look even better playing it on Sony PS5. Increased and upgraded graphics and game sprites.
ReplyDeleteSo MvC fans get a "Light Reduction" option, but Mega Man 8 and X4 fans in their respective Legacy collection are forced to deal with the lightning already reduced in the FMV cutscenes with no option to restore it even AFTER Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite bombed and the Legacy collections succeeded? GFY Capcom.
ReplyDeleteMvCI outsold every Mega Man Legacy Collection.... It outsold every Mega Man game in general actually and eventually sold more than 2 million Capcom wanted out of it. This is all with extremely bad general public reputation BTW.
DeleteEven so the option should be in the collections, from the start even.
