Not today, thats for sure, but maybe down the road. It looks like a good game, and I want to get it, but at the same time I don't. I want to wait till price drops, but at the same time i want to play it now

I feel the same way. Besides, when next week comes, all my time will be spent on Killzone 3 anyway so MVC3 will have to wait. I'll definitely pick it up when it gets cheaper.

Maybe when it's half price I need a new fighting game because I keep getting my ass kicked on BlazBlue:CS, but I'm not very good at Fighting games so I can wait.

I'm in Australia, MvC3 is AUD$108 ( USD$108 ) at EB here... so yeah I pre-ordered a copy from the US (you guys really shouldn't complain about the price. :P). It shipped a couple of days ago, so I should have it soon!

Nope. Not big on fighting games. Only fighting game that's really kept my interest was BlazBlue so I'll stick that if I wanna play a fighting game.

Nope. Not into fighting games either. I bought Street Fighter 4 and tried to get into it, but hated it. So much for nostalgia!

I'm glad though that this big game is coming out for all you fighting fans.

Heck no! Did you check IGN? There's an article saying that upcoming DLC is coming including new costumes and characters. No offence, but you would have to be a fool to buy this now as you'll eventually be paying upwards to a $100 with all the inevitable future DLC's (a rip-off). Just wait for the ultimate edition, if you can.

That's what I was thinking. The fact that key characters from both sides are missing made it kinda obvious to me that they would eventually offer them up as DLC. I'd rather wait til the game was like $20 and then getting any DLC I want wouldn't be that big a deal. I'm not going to play online anyway. I suck at fighting games. lol

I'll probably pick it up or rent it sometime down the road. I've already got a lot on my plate at the moment, so I'm not exactly in need of a new game right now. Does look fun, though.

Hell yeah! But more so because I love comics and not because of the game. It's fun so far but I'm not very good so online probably won't be very fun... Love playing the arcade mode tho.. hopefully one day i'll actually get good.

Picked up a SE copy at Target just now. I don't know if I'm going to keep it though. If it's selling for a lot on Ebay, then I'll just sell it there :P

No, I'm not. I've thought all of the Vs. games really bad compared to the juggernauts that are Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, and, to a lesser extent, Darkstalkers.

while in lobby waiting for your turn you can not spectate match (you just see health bars decrease), can not save replays, no survival mode, no time-attack,etc.

Mortal Kombat not for true gamers how so? The game was not founded on complex combos. Combos were not added in until the third game. The game's combos aren't that complex. They require some memorization, but are not hard to pull off once you know them. What is a fighting game for true gamers then? Just because a game isn't pick up and play doesn't mean it is not a game for true gamers. Your perception of fighters is severely incorrect.

Survival mode has never been available in Marvel vs Capcom. This is a 3 on 3 game it wont make sense. The replay saving is not big deal.

You're new to the VS series aren't you? They never create an updated version, this is not Street Fighter people. Street Fighter vs X-men, Marvel vs Capcom, Marvel vs Capom 2, Tatsunoko vs Capcom are an example.

Marvel vs Capcom is about combination, strategy, using the right assists, creating your own combos. Mortal Konbat + forward, forward, punch, back , back, front kick: FINISH HIM Aaaaahh. That's it, just focused on killing the opponent in cruelly.

I bought it and I'm very pleased with it. I was hesitant at first because fighting games are kind of a gamble for me. Blazblue, Street Fighter, I never really like them. But I think this one is a whole lot of fun, the gameplay is a bit easier for me to pick up and play and actually do decent and win fights. I love it! Definitely my favorite fighting game.

when i heard that they'll be releasing a large roster of DLC for the game i decided to not get milked and skipped this game. if they want to offer me the FULL game and not half of it, then i'd consider picking it up. but capcoms more or less lost me as a loyal customer with their intended content milkage.

Nice! Yeah it's just a lot more novice-friendly I think without being dumbed down for the hardcore players. I love the visual style, too! Wish I could have found a collector's edition, but they're just all gone unless you want one on Amazon for 100 bucks.

It was 35$ trade in but in GameStop Canada it is 50% trade in value. MVC3 over here is 64.99. http://www.gamestop.ca/tradeins

They haven't announce a large DLC roster. Just two and probably megaman with someone else.

if in 6-12 months they haven't release a ton of dlc to prove me right i might consider it but really even with 2 characters available right off the bat and most likely another 2 following shortly all that says to me is "we didn't feel like finishing the game and giving you a full product, but you bet we'll charge you for one! and THEN we'll charge MORE for what we didn't feel like doing" also considering the characters they're offering as dlc all i see is "we'll give you some of the characters you wanted to play with in the disc but the others you REALLY wanted to see in the game, well you have to buy those"

I can't stand companies that milk DLC especially right after a game is released. i'd love to write a letter to capcom but i'm sure that not only would they not read it, i wouldn't be the first.
