Marvel vs Capcom 2 on XBLA and PSN

[TheCorpulent1]

Okay, I'll be on then.

 

[Tron Bonne]

Teardrop, you need to get a gold account....I wanna play against you.

That would be cool for sure, but alas my friend, that is not my way. For you see, I am a cheap bastard

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I planned to stick with a silver account after my gold expired recently, but then the Wolverine demo came out and I couldn't download it right away without a gold account, so I impulsively re-upped. More than a cheap bastard, I'm a weak-willed, instant gratification bastard.

 

[Tron Bonne]

Well, we bastards have many breeders it seems. If all I had was a 360, I would probably go for Gold, but since I have a PS3 I just use it's free service. I know XBL is suppose to be leaps and bounds better than PSN, but I've been satisfied with it personally, for what little I actually play online.

I decided to buy the gold membership, mostly due to me likeing playing with you guys here, and it was the only way I could do that.

 

[Raiden]

I was contend with a silver account, but after Street Fighter IV came out I knew that I must upgrade to gold so I can play the game online. I was mad about having to pay for it, esp. since PS3 players can play online for free, but after playing online I doubt I'll go back to silver again because just being able to play you guys alone is worth the gold membership. Now MvC2 will soon to be another safisfying online experience I'm sure.

 

[SouLeSS]

Ew this games goign to be so gross with a regular 360 analogpad.

Be smart, buy it on PS3 if you got both.

 

[Brainiac 8]

Hmmm...I don't have any issues with the 360 controller on fighting games. I just use the thumb stick, which works fine.

I might consider though buying a arcade stick just for this game.

I have a MadCatz SFIV fightpad so I'm set for this game. I hope that they will have fightpad for MvC2 so I can get another controller.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Big controller fan? I just use the analog sticks. I don't claim to be any kind of fighting game savant. I'm a button-masher all the way, so precision isn't exactly a big deal for me.

 

[Tron Bonne]

I have problems using the analog stick with 2D games, especially fighters. Some people seem to be able to do it more than fine, but I've never been able to. The FightPad that Raiden is talking about has a floating D-Pad with better angling then the normal DualShock or 360 controller.

 

[Havok83]

The dpad is useless on the 360 controller and I cant use the analog stick with it bc it lacks the precision needed for fighting games. The only time I ever use an analog stick in a fighting game is for the 360 moves. Those are so much easier with that

 

[ChrisBaleBatman]

Yeah...I can't play fighting games on the 360. The Dpad is too bulky for me, really, when your trying to make quick moves.

Btw, Havok...where's that picture of Gambit from?

For me its not the bulkiness...its the placement of the dpad. Its way too close to the face buttons. Im just too used to the classic setup of traditional 2D games going back over 20 years with my NES

I dont remember where the Gambit pic came from. Its an old 3D render that I once saw and saved on my PC.

 

[ChrisBaleBatman]

Well, for me the bulkiness is a problem because when I'm trying to press left...I end up pressing UP/LEFT. Just too annoying for me. I prefer the PS3 remote for fighting games.

Ah, I almost thought that Gambit was going to show up in MULA Fusion or something.

 

[Colossus]

This is a great idea.

I think it comes from one of the X-Men Legends games. It's been a long time since I played them, though, so I'm not sure.

 

[BATZARRO WWD]

IGN has a new video showcasing the moves and combos we all know and love(or hate, depending) on the game. I guess this is further proff the game is as it was left 10(!) years ago on the Dreamcast.

Iv never had any problems with my 360's dpad. I was scared when SFIV first came out cuz all i heard was how bad the 360's dpad was. Well i dont see what everyone is complaining about. Works fine for me. There's not an Ultra in the game i cant pull off when i want to, well, other than Zangiefs, i just cant pull his off period.

 

[Spider-Vader]

The D-Pad is okay, for MK vs DC atleast. Too bulky IMO.

 

[dodgers2213]

hmmm, you fellas feel like setting up SHH rules for this game? Of course we'd need overwhelming support and its very open for debate

Example:
-No God Tiers (Cable, Sentinel, Storm, Magneto)
-No Infinite Combos


Just an idea. This would allow for more diverse teams IMO

EDIT: Infinites are actually apart of the Rules at EVO:
"Deadbody infinites are allowed to gain a positional advantage, but not to delay the game."

I feel the same way. I never have any problems with the xbox 360 controller. I can pull off many combos easily in SFIV.

 

[Tron Bonne]

You guys must be awesome, because I could not imagine using that thing for anything, much less actual 2D fighters

haha yea, you have trouble just pulling off regular ultras tho, i dont think any controller will help you out.

 

[Tron Bonne]

Depends on what regular ultras you mean, I have no problem at all with shoto motion Supers/Ultras. I can do them incredibly easy. Charge Supers/Ultras is true, though, and yeah it's my own slow minds fault
