Junkie Monkeys: Before the PlayStation 4 releases and starts to gain momentum with gamers, we decided to take a look at five rare PlayStation 3 titles.
Everyone is trying the shared universe thing these days, but Marvel and Capcom were mashing up their most beloved characters decades ago. Perhaps their best crossover effort was Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes, which was released on the PlayStation 2 & Xbox on Nov. 19, 2002, in North America. Previous releases took place in arcades and on Sega’s beloved but ill-fated Dreamcast console. Later releases came out on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360’s digital storefronts.
Former employees of Backbone Entertainment have formed a new company called Digital Eclipse. On Twitter studio head Mike Mika confirmed they would love to help the fans. In addition to having ported MvC 2 before, the studio has worked with Disney on re-releases of the Disney Afternoon Collection, Aladdin and The Lion King. Legions of fans are waiting for Marvel vs. Capcom 2 to take them for one more ride.
Arcade1Up reveals how the company was able to bring back the retro fighting game, Marvel vs. Capcom 2, with brand-new arcade cabinets.
The PlayStation Brahs:
"YouTube Maximilian Dood’s ‘#FREEMVC2’ campaign went big time viral as it spread like wildfire on social media. The goal? To get the attention of Disney and Capcom to bring back the greatness of Marvel vs Capcom 2 to modern consoles. Good news, as Capcom and Disney have had some discussions regarding the matter."
Please work it out. I have fond memories of this fighter game. Not to mention the sequels just aren't as balanced as this game was.
I really enjoyed the game on Dreamcast.
A lot less when it was later re-released on newer systems, because I believe all characters were already unlocked instead of you playing to unlock them. The SP experience on those re-releases was just ‘less’ than the Dreamcast version, which was a bit disappointing.
Would love a proper HD remake/remaster, if given the care & love it deserves (instead of a quick cash-grab with a mediocre port).
Would also love to see Capcom release a FullHD port/renaster/remake of Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max (psp).
I want them to rerelease the entire Marvel vs Capcom series on modern platforms, from X:Men Children of the Atom to Marvel vs Capcom 2
I’d also love for the next Marvel vs Capcom title to live up to its series legacy rather than being a disappointment like Infinite
Technically not 'games' except two of them. The rest are 'special editions'.
Lmao nba elite 11 was terrible I would never pay for that broken game
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves Fortune Hunter Edition worth 10k, just wow
Just Cause 2 is becoming rare for some reason. The price used at Gamestop has gone up from $17.99 to $29.99. You better get it soon, its an amazing game. I was lucky to grab the last new copy in my city last year for $19.99.
