With insane amounts of selectable characters and play options, what can possibly be done to top it?

With over 40 characters taken from the Marvel comics and Capcom's past games, there's no shortage of variation either.

Of all the incarnations of the versus series, never before have I had so much fun, said "WHOA!" so many times per match, and been so frustrated as to which characters to pick.

This is a title that rewards all comic book store jockeys and supplies unending gameplay for those aching for a fighter fix.

It may not appeal to everyone due to it's highly "over-the-top" style, but it's all about fun, colors, fun, special effects, and more fun.

So many characters to unlock, so many modes of play, so many variations in even versus play. Well done, Capcom.

With awesome graphics (save the low resolution characters), original music, gameplay refined to near perfection, and all the re-playability you can handle, this adds up to the best damn fighter that Capcom has put out yet, PERIOD.

The controllers are, for me and apparently everybody else, the only real weakness of this game.

Granted, the horrible pseudo-jazz background music is the equivalent of forced aural sodomy, but the rest of the package is so well put together, a little forced aural sodomy sometimes seems a small price to pay.

Some thing I believe that keeps the masses away from 2-demensional fighters are the dated visuals, and Capcom has pulled through to provide us with a visually stunning fighter, which will surely top the charts.

"Marvel vs. Capcom 2" has rekindled my excitement for Capcom's 2D fighting games, and will be causing my left thumb much more trauma in the coming months.

It's going to be a long time until Capcom, or anyone else, manages to top it.

Far from being the most perfect fighting game, but it's close to being the most enjoyable one.

Like its predecessor, it isn't the most balanced game in the world, but that doesn't keep it from being a great deal of fun.

Game Revolution
Perhaps the crowning achievement of "Marvel vs. Capcom 2"'s is the game's ability to get around the Dreamcast controller's lack of six buttons.

Thankfully, Capcom, the king of coin-op fighters, seems to have few reservations about taking what are essentially change magnets and bringing them home intact for the low, low price of $49.99 (or roughly 100 plays).
