Brand: Sega Dreamcast EAN: 0013388250028 ESRB Age Rating: Teen Label: Capcom Manufacturer: Capcom Model: 25002 Publisher: Capcom Studio: Capcom Editorial Review: Editorial Review: Who would win in a fight: the Incredible Hulk or Wolverine? What if Street Fighter's Ryu teamed up with Hulk, and Chun Li had Wolverine's back? Speculate no more as Marvel pits its comic book heroes against Capcom's video game stars in Marvel vs. Capcom. All your favorite Marvel characters are available, each one a joy to play. The Hulk is huge, powerful, and slow, while Spider-Man leaps and web-slings around the arena, attacking with outrageous handsprings, flips, and lunging punches. Capcom's familiar Street Fighter heroes, as well as a few other heroes such as Mega Man, round out the character selection. Some of the lesser-known characters from both franchises make special appearances. It's pretty funny when Arthur from the old game Ghosts N' Goblins jumps onscreen to throw lances at Captain America. Each of the battles is a two-on-two tag-team match. Players can swap characters in the middle of a fight, and clever players quickly discover how to launch devastating double-team attacks on the opponent. Up to four people can play. If Marvel vs. Capcom has a fault, it's super speed. The action is fast--really fast--and can quickly overwhelm a player who is used to the feint-and-strike gameplay of more sophisticated 3-D fighting games. In fact, gamer novices may be able to beat video game veterans by resorting to the old "randomly mash every button as fast as you can" trick. Aside from this, the game is a triumph in 2-D fighting. --Mike Fehlauer Pros:

Read More Rating:  - Not a picture perfect port.While this is the only good port to any of the Marvel vs. game prior to MVC2, this game still has a few problems in comparision to just playing a CPS2 ROM. First off, the sound is god awful. Everything from this game sounds like it's coming from a small FM Radio with nearly dead batteries from the other end of a long tunnel. It's that bad. Not to mention that there are a few sound glitches where some of the sound effects don't even play for a few moments. So, for example, you periodically ...

You'll have to beat the game using certain techniques. In order to beat the game very easily, I personally found it best to use Ryu and Venom on Easy mode. Use them to beat the game multiple times and you'll be able to unlock all of the secret characters. PROS: 1) The vibration feedback is extremely sensitive !!! You feel every bump and hit that you give your opponent. 2) There is an Easy ...

CAPCOM ANY MORE! This game has crisp anamation, smooth gameplay, CRISTAL CLEAR sound and an awsome soundtrack that pumps you up and gets you in the mood for fighting(In the game anyway). Don't Pass up this golden oppertunity, get it if you can find it! First one also available for the Sony Playstation, and 2nd ... Read More Rating: - The arcade perfect version of Marvel VS Capcom !I said it before and I'll say it again in a different way. I'm a 2D fighting veteran and I know which 2D fighter is worth playing all over again and which is worth ditching. However, the PlayStation version of Marvel VS Capcom is just one of those games that needs to be ditched, except for the Dreamcast conversion. Unlike its unworthy PlayStation apprentice, the Dreamcast version of Marvel VS Capcom is 100% arcade perfect in every way ! Allow me to give the lowdown on this game ! The graphics are far by, the best I've ... Read More |
