How Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 Became Popular on Playstation 3 and Xbox 360

Associated Content: Capcom recently revealed that Marvel vs. Capcom 2 could end up being their best-selling downloadable game yet. That is quite an impressive achievement considering that this is the same publisher and developer responsible for Mega Man 9, Bionic Commando Rearmed and Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix. So how did Marvel vs. Capcom 2 become so popular on the Playstation Network of the Playstation 3 and Xbox Live Arcade of the Xbox 360?

everyone had a hard-on for this game back in the ps2/xbox/DC era. Also and its cheaper than trying to find a disc based copy.

3.2 - Children of the Atom had the same basic fighting mechanics of M vs. C 2
The only real differences were that you couldn't establish tag-teams and there were some additional X-Men characters that different carry over to M vs C

It's one of the best and most popular 2D fighters ever made, and a physical copy can run you into the hundreds.

Mystery solved?
