Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Who would win in a fight: the Incredible Hulk or Wolverine? What if Street Fighter's Ryu teamed up with Hulk, and Chun Li had Wolverine's back? Speculate no more as Marvel pits its comic book heroes against Capcom's video game stars in Marvel vs. Capcom.

All your favourite Marvel characters are available, each one a joy to play. The Hulk is huge, powerful, and slow, while Spider-Man leaps and web-slings around the arena, attacking with outrageous handsprings, flips, and lunging punches. Capcom's familiar Street Fighter heroes, as well as a few other heroes such as Mega Man, round out the character selection. Some of the lesser-known characters from both franchises make special appearances. It's pretty funny when Arthur from the old game Ghosts N' Goblins jumps onscreen to throw lances at Captain America. Each of the battles is a two-on-two tag-team match. Players can swap characters in the middle of a fight, and clever players quickly discover how to launch devastating double-team attacks on the opponent. Up to four people can play.

If Marvel vs. Capcom has a fault, it's super speed. The action is fast--really fast--and can quickly overwhelm a player who is used to the feint-and-strike gameplay of more sophisticated 3-D fighting games. In fact, gamer novices may be able to beat video game veterans by resorting to the old "randomly mash every button as fast as you can" trick. Aside from this, the game is a triumph in 2-D fighting. --Mike Fehlauer

Pros:

  • Great cast of characters
  • Tests superiority of superheroes
  • Devastating tag-team moves
  • Faithful hero animations
Cons:
  • Cramped fighting space
  • Difficult, hyper-speed gameplay

3.0 out of 5 stars Good but now redundant, 2 Jan 2001
By A Customer
Capcom fans, you know who you are. This is classic capcom, a spot-on mixture of insane thumb manipulating combos and massive special moves. I really like it when games forget all logic and decide to be over-the-top and this pulls it off brilliantly. This game has a genuine wow factor about it even though it is in traditional 2-d. The controls are the standard method (high punch, high kick, medium punch.....) as are the options available. This is a good game but it only get three out of five. This is because i feel it produces nothing new. It's also a bit redundant now as the sequel has been released but this is the cheaper option. If you like capcom games, you'll like this, if not, walk away.

4.0 out of 5 stars SOLID FIGHTER, 21 Nov 2003
There's no reason why you shouldn't enjoy this game.Simply because it features certain characters you knew from when you were little,like spider-man,the hulk,and wolverine.On the other hand, it features the famous street fighter characters, like ryu,chun-li and zangief.It's a solid game,with lots of colorful visuals and incredible 70-hit combos and aerial raves.It plays like street fighter, but its engine is more exaggerated meaning that you can jump even highter and do more insane combos.Marvel vs.capcom 2 is a better choice because it has EVERY character from the vs.fighting series[x-men cota,marvel super heroes,x-men vs.street fighter]but the sound isn't better than in this game!! the backgrounds have a lot more depth in mvc1 as well,such as the daily bugle building and the avengers headquarters.If you ain't at all bothered about sound and backgrounds,go for mvc2.
