Marvel vs Capcom 2 for PlayStation 2 Reviews by Gamers

Marvel Vs. Capcom 2, the sequel to Marvel Vs. Capcom, brings to the table what many in it's genre have tried to accomplish for a long time, and to this day continue to do so, variety. Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 features all of your favorite super heroes, along with your beloved Capcom characters, allowing you to pit them against one another, which is a dream come true for any fan of comic books, video games, or both. The gamer without a doubt, is delivered the best of both worlds in this title, and it's no wonder that after nearly four years of it's release, the game is still even difficult to acquire via GameFly. This game is a definite diamond in the rough, and any gamer/comic book fan would be lucky to stumble upon this gem in your typical gamestore. The bottom line is, Capcom brought it to the table with this title, and it's a definite buy or rent, granted that you can get your mitts on it.

So, yea, basically. This is Most Definetly the BEST FIGHTING GAME EVER; as my title stated. The first time i played this was in an arcade a year ago. I was blown away. So i tracked it down on Ebay (this game is no longer in production) and got a copy. Since then, i have been playing this game as much as i can, and let me tell you. This game has some insane replay value. I never get bored or tired with it unless that is i have stayed up until 2:30 in the morning again reworking character lineups. With over 50 playable characters, most of which are infamous video game and comic characters, who wouldn't love this type of game. The combos are pretty solid, theres plenty of room for differing strategies, and the special move sequences are just bad A S S.
Whether you are and expert fighting game player or just someone who likes the idea of pitting a team of X-Men (I like Wolverine, Cyclops, and the Sentinel) Vs. the street fighter characters. I highly recommend this game. It is definetly worth the wait, time, money, and energy.
A truly amazing game.

This Game is one of the Best Fighting games ever in Fighting game history it is totally awesome

greatest fighting game allive you dont know fighting games unless you try this i wish Capcom will make morre copies of this game

Its sad how you can never find a copy of this game but when you do have its pure Gold. One of the best fighting games played.

Capcom is the king of fighting games ever since Street Fighter II hit arcades and home consoles, Capcom has made sequels and other fighting game licenses ever since the success of Street Fighter II. Capcom also aquired the rights from Marvel to make Marvel and X-Men fighting games in the early ninties, and also three Capcom and Marvel crossover, with "X-Men vs Street Fighter" in 1996, "Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter" in 1997, and "Marvel vs. Capcom" in 1998. Gamers referred these games as some of the best 2D/crossover fighters in history, however in 2000, Capcom and Marvel's next sequel would shock and excite millions everywhere..... "Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes". Now on to the review....

Story: Very thin, but not important. A pirate, Ruby Heart, needs stop an evil being known as Abyss, to stop the Earth from dying off. She summons the worlds greatest warriors on her airship to stop and destroy Abyss.

Gameplay: I'll be honest, gameplay is a little broken(very), but it doesn't ruin the experience. MvC games usually range from a little under or over 20 characters, but MvC2 has a large roster of 56 characters, and rather than having a 2 Man team, its now 3. With 56 fighters, and a team of 3, combination possibilities are endless.

Audio: Fighting games and Lounge Jazz do not mix. The music sucks except for Abyss' stage, and the creepy clown stage, they're ok. Better grab your iPod and speaker.

Graphics: For 2000, its pretty awesome. Although I would prefer the 2D backgrounds from earlier games, these are cool. Today, they still stand as amazing for the old-school 3D stage, and the classic, smooth 2D sprite charecters.

Overall: Marvel vs. Capcom 2 is amazing. One of the best fighting games ever to be made, and a hit in the arcades, Dreamcast, PS2 and XBOX. Recently, it has been ported on PS3(I own), and XBOX 360, with HD support, along with online play, one of the best fighting games ever just got better.

Score: A perfect 10/10.

this is really one of my favs of all time i just finally picked it back up since back in the day right now u can get if for about 100 and up lol but i just paid 55 dollars i like using ryu and akuma graphicly its still great im hearing they might do an hd remix to it they have the lic. to do it and capcom may also be in the makes of a part 3 to the vs sceries hope this helps people out its not so much of a review but info for people who want this game

I love this game when i had dreamcast. Now I have PS2 but CAPCOM stopped making the games which explains the LOW AVAILABILITY!!! Oh sure you can get it on eBay for only about 80+ bucks!!!

While there are quite a few fighters out there and my review may be out dated I feel as if I still need to give credit to this title. I bought this game when it first came out and I can honestly say that I still play it. On the PS2 platform it flows very well when there is alot of chaos on the screen. If you have never ever in your life played a fighter pick this one up. Its easy to learn and alot of fun with a friend.

this game is one of the greatest fighting games ever. i mean it has all the greats all wrapped up in one disc. the only way to make this game any better is that you would have to sub D.C. comics for those capcom idiots. who doesn't want to see the hulk and spiderman against the flash and venom?!
