The Marvel vs. Capcom games has been a popular series over the past two decades. Between three games there have been dozens of changes to the franchise; graphics, characters, audio, story.
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?
MvsSF, MVC and MVC2 still has the best announcers
MSH: (high off extasy male voice) "MAHVLU SUPAH HEROES!!"
XMEN VS SF: (constipated male voice)"GOOD!"
MvsSF: (super enthusiatic man lost in space) "ITS MARVEL SUPER HEROES VERSUS STREET FIGHTERRRRR!"
MVC: (woman voice) "MAHVEL VERSUS CAPCOMM!"
MVC2: (subtle incoherent male voice) "MAORWAH-VERLLOUS"
I love MvC 3, but 2 will always be the best. I did like the 4 player support on the first one though.
MvC3 is the best on my list atm followed by MvSF, then MvC, then MvC2, i didnt like xmen Vs SF
