Its looking like there could be a chance to play mvc3, like we did last year with SSFIV. (if anyone knows what i mean...)

Speed Boat

Suddenly I'm hype for this game.

I wasn't really before.

EDIT: Haha, this is a rather obvious fake. Guess that's what happens when you stay up that late.

Speaking of screenshots...


It's allegedly taken from a German games magazine, but no solid confirmation.
The clipping of Arthur/Sentinel/mini-sentinel is pretty bang on if it's a shopped image though.

Pity he looks exactly like he did in 2. I was hoping for the old school Sentinel colours:



Hopefully his stats will be toned down!

From the articles that have been posted about the decisions behind alt colours, I say you have a pretty good chance of getting what you want.

There will have to be a NY Knicks style Mango Sentinel.

If move lists have been posted, disregard! If not: http://marvelvscapcom3.com/us/characters

Interesting to see the comparison of simple vs standard controls - some moves not possible in simple. Some characters (eg. Akuma, Jill) have no controls listed yet. POTENTIALLY four characters to be unveiled...

No doubt about it now.

EDIT: Also, new promotional art, this time from Kinu Nishimura: http://fast1.onesite.com/capcom-unity.com/user/jaycbaby/large/0fa8bfc860d5fd399dcc4d33c87fb728.jpg

All the DarkStalkers characters are women, shame, Jon Talbain or Donovan would have been cool.

Can't access eurogamer in college.

Most interesting thing is the stage, Hsien ko is an awful character design. practically any of the male darkstalkers would have been way cooler.

Sairus

Gooood ****. Hsien-Ko is my favourite game character in general. Good to see her back!
Though having said that, I'm not gone on her character model It's too plain for the MvC3 engine so she looks super shiney and weird.
Moves look nice, especially her Hypers. They seem to be really easy to link into. Her slooooow air dash is odd though. It's almost like a pause in the air as opposed to a dash.

Sentinel looks brillant. Probably the nicest looking character in the game.
Gameplay wise... he looks like Sentinel, so whatever :pac:

Why do you have a problem with Sentinel's gameplay? I always thought he was a fun character to play in MVC2, looks like he'll be fun in this game too.

It's not that I have a problem with him, it's just that he looks pretty much identical to his previous version from my limited MvC2 experience, so there's not much to comment on.

Dreddybajs

I think he'll be pretty different, obviously he won't be able to do his super x rocket punch loops, fly mode looks slower, he can't do mouthbeam xx drones it looks like either. Hope he's still good anyway

Kinu Nishimura doing the art for this, biggest plus about the game, so far....

Nothing against the DS characters that are in the game, but I would have liked to have seen Zabel.

Dunjohn

Donovan would have been cool. He looks like Dan. That's good enough for me.

Darkstalkers has been out of the public eye for so long that the general hivemind only really remembers the rather outrageous female character designs. The franchise was very lucky to get three slots. They'd never have got away with Anakaris or someone this time round.
