Give me Thor or give me death. If the entire original Avengers team isn't in, there will be bloodshed.

You really dont need Giant Man or the Wasp, honest.

Wouldn't be cool if Capcom collaborated with Pringles to make a special flavor MvC3 Pringles in time for release :D ?

Pringles: FUCK THE KNICKS Cheese/Orangey Cheetos flavor edition. Once you pop, you can't stop without your Hagen-Daz "Storm is Pink like Cotten Candy" edition.
 
I think Marvel is getting better at cross marketing now -- considering when this is being released, I would look at some of the recently announced changes to the Avengers for some clues to who will be in it. I would also look to the upcoming movies.

I would be willing to put money down on Thor being included. I think there are very good chances we will see: Black Widow, Nova, Ultron, Ms. Marvel, Moonknight, Spiderwoman, and Hawkeye due to how they're going to be used in upcoming comics/movies. Expect more X-Men. We should finally get the Fantastic 4, as well. I think Dr. Strange and Moonstone are also possible, though not as likely. I'd like to see Speedball, since he's back and would have unique powers -- as well as some cosmic characters like Rocket Raccoon, Starlord, Groot, Cosmo, etc. -- even if I think they're unlikely.

As far as Capcom goes, their interviews have made it pretty clear that they understand if they do MvC3, it will need to have near or more than the roster of MvC2. I'd expect 50 to 60.
 
I echo the Carnage comments. I'd also love Silver Surfer and the Fantastic Four. At least Mr. Fantastic, so I can pretend I'm playing as Luffy. :lol

What could Carnage do that was so different from Venom? I've got his first appearance and the only thing that stands out is he could shoot sharp, projectiles from his fingertips? Some of these suggestions seem like fairly boring swaps or too close to existing characters to get excited about. Now Quasar, that's someone to get excited about. Surprised nobody has mentioned Marvel's Green Lantern.

For one, he'd be faster and probably a bit weaker. He also uses his suit to morph into different weapons, like axes and stuff. He would definitely not be like a carbon copy of Venom, or at least he shouldn't be. His fight style is completely different.

...I wish I got that far in this game. It was SO HARD.

More batshit-insane Batman. As in, carving off peoples faces because something-that-isnt-really-there is telling him to
 
I just want Venom in because his animation in MvC was so awesome (best animated Marvel character in the series imo) and I want to see if they do him justice in 3D.

I alwayss thought Hulk looked pretty sweet. If they go for the SFIV engine that's one of the characters I am excited about the most.

And Spidey of course.

As a huge Batman fanatic, this would explain why I inadvertently was drawn to using Moon Knight in the M:UA series.

+1 for wanting him in this.

Most of the information for the www.PlanetXbox360.com went through me one way or another, and let me tell you there was a lot more content they decided against posting.....MvC3 will be everything you can dream of, and more!
You will have to pardon my skepticism then. "Everything I can dream of" sounds too good to be true.

Eh, I'm holding out hope he's right and it'll come with Keira Knightley in the box.

Of course will only be on HD systems because the sprites will either be painted by Alex Ross or Shinkiro

Alex Ross if you select Marvel Groove
Shinkiro if you select Capcom Groove

lol
 
I just have to say that i HATE alex ross .... the use of human models to theirdrawings make stuffs like Fat superman and total lack of action in scenes that require it =P

...and i love this dude's water colors covers more xD

Generally most Marvel characters were extremely well done, probably one of the reasons why this franchise has been so popular. They move and fight almost exactly like you would imagine they would if they were in a SF style game. Hell Capcom even managed to put some limelight on the lesser known heroes of Marvel, like Psylocke, Cable, Sentinel (seriously this guy got a major upgrade from his early 90s counterpart) , Blackheart etc.

It's that sort of thing which makes people want so many different characters in the game. It all just... meshes together strangely enough. I would say that the only Marvel characters that didn't get justice were Colossus and Iron Man/Warmachine. The first because Colossus felt too limited and stiff to use, he just wasn't that fun to play around. The second pair because they were a palette swap of each other, one used missiles and the other one used lasers.

I actually kinda feel that way about both Ross and Shinkiro, they make wonderfully-rendered art but I just don't associate them with action scenes.

still would be neat though :lol
 
I hope Iron Man is in the game. Really obvious choice but if he is one of those odd discluded characters I'll be angry.

Dustin Nguyen's art is pretty amazing I admit. I love the cover from #11, but I don't think this style would suit MvC3, not unless they take the SF4 style and make it rely more on the strokes and watercolors.

Personally, I'd like to see The Punisher make an appearance in the game. But I won't bother posting my wishlist, this isn't GameFAQs.

If they've been in a movie these last few years, I'd expect them to have a high probability of being in this game. Common-sense dictates as such, and I'd like to think Marvel will likely have at least some influence on who they want in the game.


Now, my thing? I'm wondering about potential boss fights. :D

Mags, Doom, Thanos, Pooky and Onslaught were all pretty nice bosses to have. Not only because of their Saturday Morning connection for some of them, but the likes of Thanos and Onslaught being the end bosses in some of these games played heavily on what was going on in comics during the 90s.

Admittedly, I've fallen off. I haven't been an avid Marvel reader in some time. But whether they want to go with some thing more recent, or perhaps dredge up a classic 80s/90s thing like Dark Phoenix, I'm hoping that Capcom can deliver once more. Or hell, maybe we can have it so that a Capcom Boss (Sigma?) can come into the fray too. :D
 
If they go with a modern Marvel villain for final boss, I guess it'd be the Void, which works pretty well with the form changing standard of Onslaught and Abyss, considering how it changes forms all the time in the comics... Although, I guess the lack of Sentry in recent MUA games might mean this is unlikely to happen.

If The Punisher made an appearance, he'd be pretty similar to MvC2's Cable.
 
Looking at the video DR2K posted -- I'm kind of sad that capcom was too lazy to do this for mvc2. I mean, maybe they did but found it to be too taxing, or something, idk.
 
I want more Capcom villians in this game. MvC2 had what two...Akuma and M. Bison (the shitty non-Psycho Crusher Alpha one at that). The Marvel side had damn near a dozen....Balance that shit out Capcom!
