Did anyone else download this today on XBox 360?

I did however I always thought Marvel vs. Capcom 2 to be too loose for my liking even back when I bought new on the Dreamcast all those years ago. Playing it again for the first time in several years just reinforces that opinion. It was a game I had wanted to play again and I am glad its finally available to download but its never been my favourite 2D fighting game.

That describes how I feel, too, personally. In fact, that's how I've felt about the whole series. I haven't bought it yet(waiting to try it with my brother before I make any sort of monotary decision), but I've played the Dreamcast version many times, and just could not get into it.

I hope Capcom vs. SNK 2 comes to XBLA at some point, though. That game was the BOMB back in its day!

I've always loved this game. Too bad it isn't coming to the Wii.

I will be getting it on PS3 in a couple weeks. I used to hate the game because it was too over the top and I couldn't follow what was going on. I recently played it some more at an arcade and have changed my opinion. Though I couldn't care less about the vast majority of the characters, the team mechanic is interesting, and I enjoy the speed of play.

Moves seem simple to pull off, too, though the cabinet I played on didn't list Mega Man's, so I'm still figuring that out. Also, today I turned Zangief into some sort of Super Zangief, and I have no idea how... He turned blue and the green punch changed into a fire-blowing move?! Bizarre. I guess I still have much to learn.

I'm going to try & get it this weekend.

Aerial combos FTW

I'll probably download this someday....someday when I have a PS3.

Someday.

Mega Man sounds fun to play as though.

Yeah. Zangeif can turn into his alter ego Mech Zangeif who originally appeared in Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter as a bonus character.

Wished I had a 360 for games like this being released. I saw the review up on IGN and it brought back memories.

I got bored of it real quick, just doesn't have the depth of Capcoms other fighters, the whole tag craze seems needlessly gimmicky now, I also thought the move set per character was limited, can still be fun but it is far from a classic, way too flawed.

I had to buy an XBox 360 earlier this year because I knew Street Fighter IV would not appear on the Wii and I just had to play it. Since then I've been able to play a lot of games that I wouldn't have been able to play if I had just owned a Wii.

How, though? And can all characters do this? I think I remember the CPU doing something similar with one of the Marvel characters once.

I'm trying to not buy this game, strange as it sounds. It's awesome, no doubt, but i forsee it getting a lot of play initially and then just gathering virtual dust, much like Ultimate MK3 and SFII (both of which i also love) on XBLA. When it comes to fighters, i think i just miss playing the actual cabinets (or maybe i just need to invest in a good arcade stick). And the price point, while i think it is fair, is a bit more than i'd like to spend (especially since i just d/L'd the overpriced, not-so-great-but-cool-for-fans Watchmen game).

But i'm a big Marvel fanboy and have already downloaded the demo, so i'm sure it's just a matter of time before i buy the full game.

Hold off on the xbox becuse i think the controller sucks for fighters, might get this for PS3

It's one of his super moves. Just look it up in an FAQ - just CTRL+F Zangeif(Or Iron Body, which I think is the name of the move - might be faster) and there you go!

There are in-game move lists which tell you all the characters special and super moves. Not sure if its in arcade mode as I haven't tried but its definitely in training mode.

Don't know about you guys but I'm having a blast playing MVC2 for the 360, it takes plenty of time to get used to the 360 controller but after a while I gradually got the hang of it. It is a little easy to pull off super combos but it's still rather enjoyable to pull of Cable's ray gun blast on an entire team lol.
