The classic fighting game is back Sep 21, 2009
By Sergio S. Lamadrid
"XBOX Fanboy"
One of the greatest 2D fighting games of all time. Marvel vs. Capcom 2. I am literally on this game every day. I've spent hours upon hours on this game, I just can't get enough. According to a website that tracks certain xbox statistics, MvC2 is already my #3 most played game and I've had my 360 for more than a year already. Marvel just came out a few months ago, and I even stayed up to see it pop on the marketplace just so I can get in a few games before I had to "wake up" for work. When I got home that day, I had never seen what I saw that day. I had 17 friends online and 15 of them were on MvC2. On the release date. Gears of War 2, Fable 2, Fallout 3, none of them had as many people on, on it's opening day.
MvC2 is a remake straight from the Dreamcast version of the game (undeniably the best version of the game). All characters are unlocked before-hand so depending on your view that can be a pro or a con. There are lobbies you can set up, with upto 6 people at a time (2 players and 4 spectators) so even when you're not playing you can watch and pick up some new tricks.
The only complaint one might have against this game is that it is not a n00b-friendly game. You better have some sort of knowledge about fighting games before picking this up, preferably some street fighter experience. Heading online you are almost sure to find teams that consist of the following players: Magneto, Juggernaut, Storm, Cable, C. Commando, Sentinel, Iron Man, Psylocke...get used to it. Many players have been playing MvC2 on their dreamcasts for these past 8 years, so be prepared.
Online is virtually lag free, With more than 1000 games under my belt in both ranked and player, I've almost NEVER had a laggy game. There have been a few, yes, but very rare. The only thing you have to worry about is getting spammed, that will almost ALWAYS happen on ranked.
In terms of the achievements, as it's an arcade game there are 200 G's for you to collect. I have maxed this game out, and without a doubt the hardest achievement is 50 OCV's (One Character Victories). Winning 50 games ranked by w/o switching your first character. You can use assists, multi-specials, etc. but the first person that you choose may never leave the field of play. The others are pretty easy, it's easily 150 G's if you try.
Anyways, I do love to mention that I have close to 100 total games (I believe the tally is now at 91), and I can say honestly without a doubt, if I had only one game to play online for the rest of the year it would be...Marvel vs. Capcom 2.

Old school arcade fighter, given new life through the XBLA. Aug 19, 2009
By Tony Man, I remember logging countless hours on Marvel vs. Capcom 2 in the arcades. It was a lot of fun back then, so when I heard this was going to be released on the XBLA, I jumped on it. And it's only 1200 Microsoft Points(15 USD)!!! The new features like online play make this game even better. Take on the world, but I'm warning you, some people are really, really good. The online play can be a bit laggy at some times, so its best to play with people that are pinging on the lower side. This is an exact port of the absolutely perfect Dreamcast version of the game, so there aren't any gameplay revisions, so characters like Cable, Iron Man, and Magento are still incredibly unbalanced and overpowered, which show how true this port really is. My only complaints about this game is that you cannot map one button to two actions, which makes it difficult to do attacks that require you to hit two buttons at once, considering you are using a Xbox 360 controller. For fans of Capcom, Marvel, or any fighting fans, this is a definite buy, considering that USED copies of MvC 2 can run upwards of $50 dollars due to their short manufacturing run. So, MvC 2, gets a 5/5.
Street Fighter, X-Men, Spider-Man, Oh My! Jan 09, 2010
By UhanRodric Big fan of the arcade version of this game. Makes me think back to my button mashing days. I still LOVE this game. What's not to love about Street Fighter vs Captain America vs Spider Man vs The X-Men vs Iron Man? And for only $15? Can't beat that with a stick...well I guess you could try...but don't.
