Marvel vs. Capcom 3

Round 2 of MvC3 DLC is up

This sadly isn't endorsed by Capcom, but they have said they're paying attention to it so hopefully we'll get some more sets of DLC characters.

Interesting Shuma-Gorath video I stumbled upon. It does however contain his ending so if you don't want spoilers probably best to avoid it. I'm quite eager to have him join my team but I must wait for his DLC release.

The official trailers for both Jill and Shuma-Gorath.

I just need the Full Roster trophy (face all characters online) and I'll nab the platinum trophy. It's kinda hard to get the trophy though, since people mostly use Dante Sentinel and Wesker (the main reasons I don't do that well online). In fact, the only chars I haven't seen online are Hsien-Ko Felicia and Tron.

UPDATE: Just got all of the trophies!!

Some interesting tidbits about the Ultimate version were revealed recently. Apparently, the new characters were originally planned to be released as DLC. The tsunami earlier this year, and health issues in the staff, caused the plans to change to a standalone release.

This explains why the main title only received one set of DLC characters. Capcom planned more, but they didn't think it appropriate to release them following the disaster. That article also mentions that Ultimate MvC 3 is planned to have some downloadable content. Do you think that will actually be released in that form, or will we get yet another standalone version?

Yes I heard the tsunami/earthquake was what caused problems for further DLC with the original MVC3. I'll be honest I love all the Marvel choices for Ultimate (Ghost Rider and Dr. Strange for the win!), but really when it comes to Capcom, words cannot describe my disappointment, probably the only character I’m really excited to see is Strider Hiryu at the moment.

I do think we will possibly see some more DLC myself even if it's not characters, maybe stages and obviously alternate character costumes are on the cards, just little nick-nack things like that. Can't say I'm too keen for a third stand alone version of MVC3. I think any future ideas after Ultimate should be DLC personally, each to his own however.

Alternate colors for Zero and Dr. Doom

Hmm, so they took out Zero's Megaman X color and replaced it with the X1 armor. Sounds like there's a story there...

Also, I'm really liking the Zero series and Vile alternates.

Zero has X as his alternate costume!

A lot of people are angry about this, but personally, I'm actually glad that X is at least semi-playable now.

I'm glad to see X getting some love from this game. Having him as a separate character would still be better, but at least he's not getting ignored completely.
