Bringing forth a host of features never-before-seen in these games, Marvel vs. Capcom Origins adds GGPO-enhanced online play with 8-player lobbies and spectator mode, HD graphical upgrades, dynamic challenges and replay saving.

Member Since 1/26/2004
ComicBookMovie.com and Best Little Sites was the brainchild of Nate and a friend way back in 2002. Nate initially focused on the back-end programming and front-end design, but now manages the company and its associated sites as well, with a LOT of help from some very talented contributors.

Nate has loved comics from a very young age and continues to read them on a regular basis thanks to subscriptions to various titles (both Marvel and DC). He also loves movies, as his wife and children will attest. He's not overly critical of movies, so his reviews should be taken with a grain of salt as he's much more interested in being entertained and escaping the "real" world for a couple of hours than finding every conceivable plot-hole and character flaw in a film.

Outside of his guilty "nerdy" pleasures, Nate enjoys spending time with his wife and three boys, CrossFit, playing guitar, coaching youth sports and MMA (he spent a couple of years in the cage as an NHB fighter, but is now MUCH too old).

i cant complain because i already have all of them on my arcade cab, but i wish they would have made the whole set of these classics as one package, marvel superheroes, marvel vs capcom, marvel vs cap 2, xmen cota,and xmen vs street fighter. Boom all in one package for thirty bucks!

@ jessepostal

excellent,i suppose the home consoles really did kill off going to your local arcade.

well did for me in the uk,most seaside arcades are boarded up here.

@marvel, they def did, I only see arcades at the shores as well, but not too many left. Buuuuuut another cool thing about building one is you can also put all the old console games on it too, i have every system built in to the computer of it. and a ps3 too for those fantastic fighting games!

@Marvel72 other than at amusement parks and 1 Regal theater i havent seen an Arcade in years, and even the Regal 1 only has like 4 games now its been reduced just to the entrance of the theater and concession stand but it used to be wall to wall games. Some of my earliest memories of that mall is the HUGE crowd DDR first attracted when that arcade got it lol

@JessePostal at this point i would say dead art not dying. Other than SS4 and Time Crisis i don't think i've ever seen a game made after like 2000

@ha1frican, it's alive and well in the art of restoration and collecting. Japan still makes a lot of cabinet games too

2D pixelated, bright colour, flashing lights, seizure inducing fighting games over any 3D game all day everyday.

Lol. How can you not hear that for hours after playing? Also, I always thought that was such a weird, I guess, "song", to be in that game.

I know its not included in these games, but MvC2 was far superior to MvC3.
