For those of you who are hoping the 12 additional fighters in Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Ultimate Edition will be available as downloadable content for the original game will be sorely out of luck.
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?
Cause they want you to buy the game twice. I already have the limited edition, why would I want another copy?
God to hell Capcom... I'll happily play Mortal Kombat until you get there!
Didn't Capcom say this last week?
ill be happy with this definitive edition . I never bought the original so they are catering to my interests .
To think, their original stance before MvC3 launched was "no DLC, because parting out a fighting game is like selling a chess set without some of the pieces" (paraphrase). Capcom is worse than Activision.
