Gamervision reports: Can anybody keep a secret anymore? Though it's been rumored to be in development seemingly forever, today we find out that Marvel vs. Capcom 3 is really real. For real this time. Despite being heavily embargoed by Capcom, the trailers for both MvC3 and Bionic Commando: Rearmed 2, which is a bit of a surprise, but not shocking, leaked this morning to the delight of eager fighting fans across the globe.
The MvC3 trailer is pretty cool. Even though it's chock full of mostly returning characters, we do get a glimpse at Chris Redfield in his Resident Evil 5 uniform fighting the Hulk. Everything is seemingly running on the SFIV engine, which is likely to annoy some people, but makes me happy. I love that art style, and can't wait to see the dozens of Marvel characters rendered in-game.
Artist Chris Cayco, who we’ve featured a few times before on Kotaku, grew up playing Marvel vs. Capcom (and Marvel vs. Street Fighter) games. His tribute to this, which took him over 175 hours, was to combine every single character to ever appear in Capcom’s crossover series in the one enormous image.
Makes me despise Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite that much more
So much wasted potential
As common as it is today, it is hard to believe that there was a time where gaming franchises crossing over was just a pipe dream. Capcom broke down the wall, but they took the combination of some of the most unlikely of franchises and made it the norm.
Whether it was a colossal successful partnership with Marvel Comics or a collaboration with rivals Namco and SNK, the “Vs.” series brought unforgettable experiences to the fighting genre.
Marvel doesn't just have a bright future ahead of it in films, but in the gaming realm as well. Some exciting new titles are showing up on all hardware, so does that mean gamers are finally catching up with the MCU?
!!!!!!!!
MEGAMAN X and FORTE(BASS) need to be in the game with DEADPOOL :D! Everything looks good from the trailer i dont understand why some people are already complaining.
The trailer for Marvel vs. Capcom 3 looks pretty sweet. I'd like to see some gameplay.
they better make Marvel vs. capcom 3's controls way more responsive than Street fighter 4's....SF4 was very sluggish.
