6/27/2009 7:35:38 PM

"Marvel Vs Capcom 2 Comes to XBLA on July 29th Thursday, July 9, 2009, 12:20 PM [Capcom Digital Downloads] And now for some long-awaited MVC2 release date news. The officially official word is: MVC2 is coming first exclusively on Xbox LIVE Arcade as a part of Microsoft's "Summer of Arcade" program. The Sony PSN release date will be announced soon. It'll be 1200 Microsoft Points--much, much better than those eBay prices, and you can play this one online with the pretty new graphics. In my head, I have already begun hitting you with my Magneto infinite. Woot!"

7/13/2009 6:42:33 PM

motherfuckers, I would be pissed if my PSN wasnt free, but im still kind of ticked.

7/13/2009 6:52:02 PM

^ the 360 really doesn't deserve this kind of priority. Trust me; I own one.

7/14/2009 3:59:14 AM

god im still fucking raging about this, fuck microsoft.

7/17/2009 8:47:43 AM

I wonder how many fuckheads will be on there doing infinites and shit

7/17/2009 9:30:27 AM

So let me get this straight. PSN gets the exclusive demo (which was absolute shit btw), only to not get the full release until 2 weeks after the 360? Alrighty then

7/17/2009 11:45:10 AM

^exactly, woooo 6 characters...

probably not that many, majority of the people are probably going to suck..

7/17/2009 1:59:39 PM

What 6 characters were in the PSN demo?

7/17/2009 2:36:38 PM

spider-man and five of your mom's chins

EVO 2K9 live stream, pretty fun stuff, MvC2 starts tomrorow at 5pm our time.

7/19/2009 5:27:38 AM

Just FYI - Target is doing $5 Target gift cards with the purchase of 1600 Xbox Live point cards this week. Good timing for this.

7/22/2009 3:41:49 PM

too bad I have PSN =x

7/22/2009 6:09:33 PM

If you have a PS3 and deign to play this game on those shitty Xbox 360 controllers, someone ought to slap the taste out of your mouth.

7/22/2009 6:25:07 PM

oh god the 360 d-pad is fucking horrendous, ps3 d-pad is rather decent in my opinion, but real pros play with arcade sticks so it doesn't matter

7/22/2009 7:21:24 PM

Arcade stick - check.

So, what teams do y'all favor? I don't know any crazy lockdowns or infinites, so I play pretty straight forward. Cable, Psylocke, and Sentinel for me.

7/22/2009 11:14:36 PM

cable, sentinel, and magnito(i can kinda do the infinite, but always fuck it up after i try the first reset =x) somtimes i swap magnito for storm, and cable for psylock though.

7/23/2009 12:22:16 AM

I've always played my 'sentimental' team of Gambit, Rogue, Captain Commando

Never one for just going online and finding what the 'best' team to run is

7/23/2009 9:40:53 AM

Yeah, I sometimes bust out Charlie, Guile, and Captain America just for fun.

And hey, this Guile is about about 9000% better than the one in SFIV, so that's good to look forward to!

7/23/2009 2:59:39 PM

26 minutes????

7/28/2009 11:35:06 PM

not for me! august 13th for all the people with the better systems

7/28/2009 11:41:02 PM

MOTHER FUCK

WHERE IS IT

7/29/2009 12:08:27 AM

Seriously.

7/29/2009 2:26:56 AM

Downloading now! Let's see if I can remember how to play this.

7/29/2009 9:02:02 AM

I, too, am downloading now

damn you internet, why do my Xbox downloads take so long

sitting at 25% now

[Edited on July 29, 2009 at 9:34 AM. Reason : ]

7/29/2009 9:14:08 AM

Well I managed to get it to download by cycle logging in...but that's a post for Tech Talk here in a few...

It looks pretty good, but the screen alignment is retarded, not to mention the fact that they give you an essentially black screen for the manual adjustment.

I didn't have any luck finding a person online to play at all, but maybe that's because it was during the day. Will try later.

My tag is Raep Seed on Xbox Live

7/29/2009 11:56:35 AM

I don't have any money (to spare) but i'll probably be playing this tonight.

7/29/2009 12:33:49 PM

I got up this morning at 9:00, downloaded it, and proceeded to play online for about 2 hours. In that time, I can say one thing: WHEN IN THE HELL DID JILL VALENTINE BECOME SO OVERPOWERED?! Seriously, I don't think I can recall having once seen anybody in the arcade days of this game use her worth a damn. I guess nobody in my area was very good with her, but I'd guess that 7/10 teams which I played this morning included her. I ultimately broke even after a very poor start, but it's starting to come back to me slowly.

One thing I'm a little perplexed by - when you're in a player match lobby, how do you exit...? I joined a lobby as a spectator, watched a few rounds, and then got a chance to play. After sitting in the same lobby for about 2 hours, I was finally ready to go but couldn't figure out how. I just wound up turning the whole 360 off since I couldn't figure out how to leave the lobby. It's probably something really obvious that I didn't think to do...

7/29/2009 1:29:01 PM

signing out takes you to the main menu of most games if they're online.

[Edited on July 29, 2009 at 1:54 PM. Reason : ]

7/29/2009 1:53:59 PM

Gonna take you for a ride.

7/29/2009 2:46:59 PM

this makes me hate 360 even more, 2 weeks left... and jill was never very bad, she has pretty good ranged specials / assists, and the giant boss special from RE1 is pretty badass.

[Edited on July 29, 2009 at 3:20 PM. Reason : blah]

Yeah, but surely there's got to be a more "graceful" way to exit a lobby.

7/29/2009 4:16:29 PM

I can't find any matches online. Fucking internet

7/29/2009 9:01:26 PM

Just played 10 quick games either against total scrubs (7 wins) or semi-infinite combo guys (3 losses). I hope there's a better balance of players after a few weeks.

7/29/2009 9:06:21 PM

FYI, those 360 MadCatz fightpads are available again at reasonable prices. I ordered a Chun-Li pad for $34 + shipping.

7/30/2009 9:09:39 AM

love this game but damn I suck bad right now....its been way too long since my dreamcast days.

7/30/2009 9:33:39 AM

Does the fightpad feel that much better than a regular controller? I always thought people were talking about the tournament style fightstick when there were crazy price swings.

7/30/2009 10:36:54 AM

i'm much worse than i remember.

i used to fly through this game on hard.

7/30/2009 3:14:43 PM

^Are you talking about the single player? They definitely kicked up the difficulty a few notches, I have MvC2 for the Xbox and have been playing it for the past few weeks.

7/30/2009 3:58:45 PM

yeah single player. i tried twice and couldn't find games online, so i just played SP for a while.

7/30/2009 6:51:53 PM

I'm having a fuck of a time pulling off some of those Z moves with the d-pad/stick

8/1/2009 12:01:05 PM

If you select a wrong character by accident is there any way to go back?

8/1/2009 8:06:47 PM

i doubt it, there wasn't in the original. Maybe the back button if you have a 360, idk about PS3. I'd been meaning to try but for the most part the only thing i pick incorectly is the assist type, but thats usually not a huge deal.

8/1/2009 8:31:17 PM

Nope

There's also no way to exit to a menu when at the character select screen

I have MvC2 for the Xbox and I think you could use the back button to back out of the character select, but it doesn't work anymore. You also could use the triggers to call assists and the bumpers were LP+HP and LK+HK, which was great for pulling off HC's more consistently off a combo, but they took that out too for some reason.

8/1/2009 9:01:20 PM

stupid broken 360

8/1/2009 9:08:59 PM

do soft resets still work? like start + select + all the L and R buttons?
