You'd think there was one incredible story behind this...But..

I'm not sure if I'm the only person who thought this but I bought this game thinking "Aw man! It's going to be the best story ever told! Magneto, Wesker and Dr. Doom joining forces to kick some good guy butt. YEAH!" What I got was a standard arcade mode and a "mission mode" that was nothing more than advanced training. I'm very dissapointed in how the "story" was played to be. Character specific endings are nice but not really worth it. A lot of story comes mainly from the little comic that comes in the special edition. and I was pumped after reading it hoping to hear Dante spurt dumb one-liners as Deadpool broke the fouth wall and how they went from enemies to allies due to Galactus showing up and wrecking house. Or maybe a story about how they fought each other because these strange folk (Capcom) showed up and S.H.I.E.L.D. could be just looking out for the well being of the planet....Damn I should of been a storyboard writer for this game... Either way Here's my breakdown.


Graphics:
Damn good..But Using the MT engine is a tad overkill if you ask me. That engine is very powerful as far as gaming goes. Which allowed all these fancy graphics, blooms, explsions and shadows the fill the screen without any slowdown whatsoever. Its like playing a comic which I find to be very awesome.


Gameplay:
It's good...Not great. Vets of MVC2 will have to learn a bit with all the remapping but overall it feels over simplified. Its nice that they want to introduce new players to the fighting game but it feels to easy to spam powerful combos. Luckly right now the ranked matches I've played have been "Gentlemen matches" With little cursing and more like "Oh no! I walked into that one." or "Alright, alright. Not bad but take this!" And for some reason someone appologized for using the same move more than 3 times in a row (I'm on the 360!! Kindness online is unheard of!) Which made me have hope for the future of gaming online.

Overall:
Its fun but not as diverse as MVC2 they say they will release DLC over the next couple of months so I'm expecting to be nickle and dimed to death as my punishment for liking a popular fighting game.
