DESCRIPTION

Originally released in 2000, Capcom's three-on-three arcade game, featuring popular characters from previous action, shooting, and fighting titles, comes to the PlayStation Network with online play and a host of new features in Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes. Gamers can choose from 56 playable characters, with each combatant offering a variety of aerial maneuvers, special attacks, and projectile blasts. Players swap fighters in and out of the match at any time, even for a single attack on an opponent, while the remaining two characters rest on the sidelines. Gamers can also press one of two assist buttons to have one of their teammates perform a pre-selected attack or defensive maneuver. Online battles are based on the same system used in Super Street Fighter II Turbo: HD Remix, and players can tailor their experience with custom soundtracks and optional visual filters to make the graphics smoother or crisper. ~ Christopher Brown, All Game Guide

Old game is old. What are you so excited for?”

bettadud was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“Because SOME of us don't own it on the Xbox Arcade because we're too CHEAP to get Microsoft Points

Aaaaaand I miss Viewtiful Joe's awesomeness”

“@bettadud Why the fuck would you wanna play that game with that piece of shit d-pad?”

bettadud was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“@xoaks Huh? I don't know what you're getting at”

rawkr was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“@xoaks I have to agree with you, much as it pains me. The PS3 D-pad has a smoother feel than the 360s.”

bettadud was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“Oh. You mean it's not played with the Joystick? :O”

rawkr was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“@bettadud not sure but the d-pad on 360 is stiff so if you wanted to it would be a pain in the ass. I myself am too cheap to get an arcade stick so this might be a factor in which system I got it for.”

xoaks was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“@bettadud Who the fuck plays a 2D fighter with the fucking thumbstick? You heathen.”

rawkr was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“I tried but it felt weird. Those formative years on Street Fighter II on SNES made that concept difficult to grasp when the technology evolved to analog sticks.”

bettadud was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“Meh I'm used to Super Smash Bros.... soooo”

rawkr was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“N64, GC, and Wii (albeit less than the first two) have some pretty stiff D-pads too.”

“Point is it plays with a joystick just fine. Idk why you guys have a problem with fighters that don't use the D-Pad. Then again I'm not really much of a Fighting game fan myself, so I can't talk...”

“Still as fun as it was back when it was first released, more so because of online play. But the roster is still as unbalanced as ever and playing against random people will probably guarantee you a lose unless you're really good at the game.”
