It’s thrilling to jump into CAPCOM Co., Ltd.’s MARVEL vs. CAPCOM Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics. This game delivers a mix of nostalgia and refreshment, letting players step into the shoes of iconic Marvel and Capcom characters. One user review summed it up perfectly, calling it “perhaps the best fighting game collection ever.
Definitely, this collection is ideal for both newcomers and longtime MVSC fans. As one user pointed out, the games stay true to their arcade counterparts, maintaining their original charm. Additionally, the inclusion of over 500 pieces of artwork and more than 200 original music tracks creates a fully immersive experience.
Speaking of immersion, the gameplay mechanics deserve a shoutout. CAPCOM has preserved the distinctive fighting styles of each character while introducing adjustable difficulty levels and One Button Specials. These features cater to players of all skill levels, which is a rarity in competitive fighting games.
The visuals and animations further elevate the experience. They respect the iconic pixelated artwork of the originals while delivering smoother, faster gameplay. This balance is essential for both casual players and speedrunners seeking optimal performance.
Not only visuals, but the music also holds a significant place in setting up the intense, dramatic atmosphere. Over 200 tracks from the original arcade games literally bring back the glory of the good old days while maintaining the thrill and tension of combats.
True, and let’s not forget the characters. This collection offers one of the largest rosters of fighters to choose from. Seeing these beloved characters from Marvel and Capcom clash is just exciting. Each character has maintained its unique abilities ensuring the gameplay doesn’t lose its original charm.
Absolutely! The level of challenge in this game is also well balanced. The high skill ceiling in games like MARVEL vs. CAPCOM 2 allows for deep, strategical gameplay which many competitive players seek. And the puzzle-complexity and combat difficulty meshes well with the game’s overall design.
That’s right. And the replay value here is high, especially with the inclusion of online play and co-op feature. Competitive players striving for a fast completion time would definitely find themselves going back repeatedly, trying to shave off seconds from their best times.
To sum it up, this is more than a mere bundle of old games – it’s a lovingly crafted homage to the classics that manages to bring its own unique charm and enjoyment. This collection is a must-have for fans of the series and new players alike!
I agree! And for those who enjoyed this collection, other Capcom classics such as Street Fighter Anniversary Collection or Darkstalkers Resurrection are also worth a look.
And if you’re a fan of crossover fighting games like these, you might want to check out Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars. Happy gaming!
Absolutely, happy gaming guys, till we meet again in another heated gaming discussion. I’ll be clocking out with my controller now!
