Right now you're reading a review for a game that shouldn't have ever existed outside of Japan. Mainstream gamers -- and most hardcore gamers, at that -- don't know the Tatsunoko brand. With very little promise of a commercial success, Capcom would be crazy to bring the latest in the Capcom Vs. series to U.S. shores, right?
Not necessarily, no. You're reading about a "dark horse" game, no doubt. But you're also reading a review for one of the best games on the Wii.
For the Wii’s 15th birthday, here’s a list of 15 Wii games that deserve ports or sequels.
Are you one of the understandably many who has sworn off MvCI because of how it's being handled? Or are you still interested in giving it a shot purely on its gameplay?
The art direction is indeed horrendous. I'm switching over to that new DBZ fighter. Which is the 1st time I've ever seen a DBZ game look EXACTLY like the cartoon. The reviews MvC are gonna have to be stellar for me to even consider it. Right now, MvC is a definite maybe but, probably not.
Agreed, I thought the art was bad in SFV, this is beyond that in every way. And the gameplay looks slow to boot.
Not to mention reading all the noob friendly combos Capcom is incorporating into this game. I just don't understand what these guys are doing.
Yea the Art Direction is enough for me to not want to play it.....as petty as that sounds, I just can't really get into it.
I like the brighter colors and style of the 2D sprites of older fighting games.
King of Fighters 13 was a beautiful modern 2D sprite fighting game that showed it can be down in the modern gaming era and still look good and be appealing.
* Capcom has lost their way in the fighting genre when it comes to art style and character design.
Whoever is in charge over there has poor taste.
I was a bit disappointed with the demo. The art direction is one of the reasons I loved the series. It always looked so awesome to see animated sprites that looked right out of a comic book. Even MVC3 had the comic book appeal. Honestly, I am with everyone else, that DBZ fighter looks amazing...
character models for some of them are not great but the gameplay is solid af..the infiniti gem system is great and at least it has some type of story...but i understand the disappointment..no spiderman/xmen is terrible also
Spiderman will definitely be DLC, but no X-Men is because Disney is desperately trying to make the X-Men brand less well known so they can (eventually) snag back the movie licenses from Fox. Obviously it's not working, because both Deadpool and Logan are up there with current MCU movies, Logan probably being better than most. If Fox can keep up this quality (which, knowing Fox is always a 50/50 chance) there's no way they'll be getting those rights back for cheap within the next two decades, if not longer. They'd be better off collaborating and making money now, than trying (and failing) to get the rights back before the superhero movie genre dries up.
Jumped ship is going a bit too far but after that demo I am very cautious to see how the final product is. Will wait for feedback before I Purchase said product.
Third-party video game developer Capcom and animation studio Tatsunoko are preparing a special exhibition.
The event was originally posted by Famitsu, and Shoryuken translated the information. The event will open on April 21 and last until May 7, and it’ll be held at the Aqua City Mall in Tokyo. Both companies are collaborating to celebrate their milestones: Tatsunoko’s 55th anniversary and Street Fighter‘s 30th.
It'd be hard for Capcom to reacquire the Tatsunoku license, and especially to localize a potential sequel
Great game. Great score. I'm coppin this!
Boy, with all those 9s over there, I sure am glad that the Overall Score is not an average.
i know alot of people have been kinda hard on the new bionic commando, but i really enjoyed that game and still think its graphics and gameplay were awesome. i played it from start to finish and dug it! it scored quite high on ign too. anyways, this game makes me happy that i still have a wii. they always seem to come out with some kick @ss exclusives every so often!
we need to get this game and help it sell through so that we can stick up a middle finger to the wii haterz out there.
plus, i really hope a good online community develops. cant wait man
