MvC2 was the only Marvel Versus game without individual endings. It did have a story though; it all had to do with Ruby Heart searching for Abyss.

It was weird that it had pictures in the ending resolving the story without really providing an opening montage to establish the story. I hate it when games do that!

F*ck off with your lies. I've never spoken to you about the story in Brawl before. I don't even think I've spoken about Brawl at all in two years.

And if this happened while I was gone...good. You deserve to get shot down more. 3/4 of the things you say are retarded.

You **** off. Who said it was you? And Who said anyone else spoke about Brawl. I said I brought it up, because of Brawl. It was me.

I hope there's an actual story to this game instead of just random fights.

I know I quoted you when I said it, but it wasn't aimed towards you.

I'm really hoping that the 3DS port of SSFIV does well, because I want Capcom to make MvC3 portable as well.

There's a difference between wanting there to be a story in a fighting game and wanting there to be a good story in a fighting game. The last option is a complete impossibility.

As unfortunate as it is, I'll have to completely agree. There isn't much point in getting your hopes up for something of that nature in many fighting games, much less a versus game. I thought Brawl did a good job of putting together a story in that very ambiguous way that Nintendo usually does so well, and included some great cut scenes, but I know that isn't a very popular opinion, and even still, Smash Bros. is a bit of an anomaly in that it barely qualifies as a fighting game (sometimes not at all) and it kinda marches to the beat of it's own drummer.

Some of the cutscenes in Brawl were really good. It was the stuff in between that was annoying.

The cut-scenes were cool, but they still weren't anything close to being a cohesive story. You can enjoy that kind of goofy fanservice all you want, but don't try and pretend like it's actually good storytelling.

Videos all over da place.

King Arthur is so out of left field, but I love it. He has the same f*cking jump animation and everything. Nathan Spencer I could certainly do without. The last thing we need to be reminded of is that sh*tty Bionic Commando reboot.

Also, Magneto and MODOK. Meh to both as characters, but they're not bad choices like Spencer.

I was so excited for the next character announcement, but this just turned out to be personally disappointing.

Just wondering, at this point who are waiting on?

I'm still praying for a Dead Rising rep and Kobun. If I don't get Kobun, outside of f*cking Tron Bonne, I'll die. I don't have much hope in that, though.

For Marvel, I'm surprised they never put in Galactus yet.

As for Capcom, I'm hoping Mega Man returns.

I really, really wanted Spencer in this, but I could not have foreseen them using the BC2K9 version. Even Rearmed 2 Spencer would have been better. Hopefully, since they just showed off how alts work in MvC3, we'll get a better skin for him (although, the Spider-Man ones are just texture changes... they'd have to do a bit more to upgrade Spencer).

Arthur is awesome, Magneto is meh, and I've always f***ing hated M.O.D.O.K.

Aaaaand unrelated but awesome still, they just announced the old Konami X-Men arcade game for PSN and Live Arcade. Yes.

Galactus could always be a boss in Arcade mode.
