Marvel vs Capcom 4?

Why not Marvel vs. DC already?

Majin-vegeta2724d ago

Do you really wanna hear all that damn bickering online of who's better??😑

Well Marvel did say they would like to bring more quality games to consoles.

I couldn't get into MvsC3 like I did with the older titles, I didn't even give UMvsC3 a shot since the game's mechanics just didn't feel rewarding. I hope it is really happening still, but it is hard to see it happening with the current state of Capcom

xDealtwithIt2724d ago

Doubt marvel or dc would want to see huge imbalances in thier characters when fighting each other.

stokedAF2724d ago

The problem with Marvel vs DC is all business related with direct competitors. Collaboration in the video game space would be great but it's not necessary to be successful yet. They both have their healthy titles like Injustice, Arkham, MvC and Spider-Man.

Marvel vs DC will happen when the comic industry as a whole is dying in the video game space. It's possible but also probably a legal nightmare and not worth the time or effort (SF vs Tekken) unless it's some form of last resort push to generate interest.

Marvel vs capcom is unique in its crossover quality in my opinion and I hope that the rumor is true even though it's probably not.

After MvC3 being an infinite combo fest and completely imbalanced mess I would have to wait and see how MvC4 is.

Who in their right mind makes a fighting game where all you have to do is land one light normal attack to start an infinite combo that the opponent can't get out of until their character dies? Garbage.

And then characters like Phoenix who can spam a tracking projectile and do nonstop chip damage against 90% of the roster that can't do anything about it.

MvC2 is still one of my favorite games of all time. I was hugely disappointed with MvC3. I understand MvC2 had some balance issues too, but no where near this extent.

stokedAF2724d ago (Edited 2724d ago )

I feel that mvc2 is the better game mechanically as well but that's marvels go to fighting franchise and it works in my opinion. Another MvC without the trademark development problems would be fantastic. Both studios being moderated by Sony publishing might be a good way get the legals under control so it's not a roller coaster.

The cruddy balance is to be expected with such a wide range of characters and no real game patch support. That cheese has always been half of the fun and it's still entertaining. Even the high level stuff is still interesting to watch. Especially when it's not the same tried and true doom combo over and over like you were saying.

I didnt think of this. Honestly, I am hoping for the Oddworld Soulstorm reveal.

xDealtwithIt2724d ago

Doubt it, we would have heard something by now. Leaks have been pretty accurate lately.

Hoffmann2724d ago

Oh..its happening..trust me. MVC4 will be revealed soon.

KwietStorm_BLM2724d ago

Street FIghter V pretty much came out of nowhere as a PlayStation exclusive literally the night before PSX.

Rai2724d ago

I rather have Capcom vs SNK 3.

Fishy Fingers2724d ago

Yup, me too. But I'd still be happy to see this announced.

PS3gamer4life2724d ago

Im down for a new MvC but I really want Capcom Vs SNK 3 Online

Xbox No Longer Has Its Head In The Game

Microsoft & Xbox have shut down Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks to lay off more workers, insinuating that they're not in the game anymore.

XiNatsuDragnel1d 17h ago

They're headless for a long time because closing tango isn't exactly a good move

PapaBop20h ago

Ever since that cringe Kinect reveal they've never been the same. They used to make some amazing games and do great deals with third parties Early on in the 360 era they had games like Chromehounds and Shadowrun, both well ahead of their time. Now instead of nurturing their studios, they'd rather gaslight gamers and throw billions on pre existing studios. Not sure how Spencer is still in a job, I wouldn't trust him to organise a piss-up in a brewery.

Father__Merrin19h ago

We've said all along Spencer needs to go. I wish xbox went back to xbox only with new gears fable forza halo releases lots of third party releases

Those early rainbow 6 Vegas days and phantasy star universe are gone forever

MS has its head in the game but the game they are playing is something different from what console gamers expect from a platform. MS’s end game has always been to use the xbox as a trojan horse.

XiNatsuDragnel14h ago

Lol that's funny well this plan they have isn't working homie

Tacoboto1d 12h ago

Especially for Microsoft, when Booty pretty much said they didn't know how to handle that many studios.

Why even make the acquisition then.

-Foxtrot1d 12h ago

Didn’t they make the swipe for Bethesda when Sony wanted like 6 months exclusiveness for Starfield

It’s like…chill, you got Rise of the Tomb Raider for a year.

romulus231d 11h ago

Do they always come with senseless cuts becasue that's exactly what cutting Tango was, senseless.

H91d 13h ago

Everyone's acting now that game companies care about games and Xbox is committing the Ultimate betrayal, they are all like this and you have just been quiet about it for far too long

Nuclearmoon1d 12h ago

I wonder if Microsoft do pull out of the console market that it might open the door for valve to relaunch the Steambox. Competition is good for the industry but Microsoft don't even seem to be trying anymore.

UltimateOwnage1d 8h ago

Steam / Valve are one of the few truly pro-consumer bright spots in gaming right now. Thankfully.

jwillj2k41d 11h ago (Edited 1d 11h ago )

“Your game has won some pretty significant awards and is a show piece for where we want to go in the future.”

1 hour later.

“We’re gonna have to let you go. You can’t cover our 100 billion dollar acquisition. Oh and take your awards too 👍🏾”
