I already was sold on the game when they announced Deadpool, now i hope they add Thor, Penance, Loki, Albert Wesker, Phantom Duck (a Donal Duck character, think batman only a duck, since Disney owns Marvel now) and Samenosuske from Onimusha.
you mean Darkwing Duck? (a spin-off of Ducktales, which also has a nice cast of Capcom and Disney owned characters to choose from. Gizmoduck ftw!) yeah, that would be awesome.
actually No, i dont mean Darkwing Duck (he is awesome to btw), but Phantom Duck is another character (he is also called Paperinik check out the wiki entry

Give me Capcom vs SNK 3 or give me death!
Aye! I love me some CvS2, and CvS1 wasn't bad either. I would just like it better if they took out the cheeseball SNK style bosses should they ever make a new one.
Hmmm, which bosses? Ultimate Rugal?
Yeah, U. Rugal and S. Akuma. I enjoy single player in fighters from time to time and ending up fighting them seemed like too much of a punishment for actually doing well against the AI. lol Beating them with some characters was just a nightmare. I did remember getting through for the custom groove too though. That was indeed pure brutality.

Am I the only one who does not like the roster? Dormammu? Super Skrull? Trish from Devil May Cry? Why these characters? I think there are some better characters on both sides.
I'm kind of scratching my head too. The roster really isn't that big to begin with and while I understand they need to have some odd characters in the line-up I'm not sure what to make of those they are choosing.
Yeah... I am not really excited about Viewtiful Joe. I get that its a good character, but I would have less of a problem with it if they remake him to be of equal size with the other character.
Now that they are 3D, they could pretty much just do that. Its not like they need to reuse assets to include the servbots all over again.

Well, I figured Viewtiful Joe was going to be in it, as it has "Viewtiful" in the combo text on the sides, so he was a natural fit, but my real question is...

When and how are they going to officially announce Spidey? Everyone knows he's going to be in it, but what nobody knows is which spidey will it be? With Marvel right now pushing all sorts of Spideymen, are we going to see Traditional Spidey? Ultimate Spidey? Noir Spidey? Secret Wars Spidey?

On second though, I'm probably just over-thinking the reasoning behind not officially announcing a staple character.

Why the hell haven't they added Nemesis into any of the MvC games yet? or The Punisher, for that matter? Sure, not ultimate powerhouses of powerful power like Dante or The Hulk, but they'd be fun as hell to play nonetheless.

He's not going to be in it. The rights for Spider-Man are still owned by Sony. They're not going to allow Spidey in a game that's going to be on a Microsoft console that isn't solely a Spider-Man game. The most we can hope for is him being a PS3 console exclusive character but that's incredibly unlikely.

Sony may have rights to the Spider-man movie, but they do not wholly own the IP. Proof is there are multiple Spider-man games for the Xbox 360, including Shattered Dimensions which is coming out on Sept 7. If they wholly owned Spider-Man, it wouldn't be happening.

If you notice I corrected my post. Sure, they'll allow him in a Spider-Man game but an appearance such as this I consider highly unlikely. If he was going to be in it I'd figure they'd announce such a high profile hero waaay before characters like Super Skrull, Dormammu and The Silver Surfer.

And I wasn't trying to troll, just stating why I feel he won't be in it. :/

When was this purchase? Because the Marvel Alliances games that came out had Spidey in it, and it wasn't a Sony exclusive game, and he wasn't a Sony exclusive character. I did a quick google search, and I'm sorry, but I can't find any source stating that Sony bought all rights to Spider-man anywhere. I'll apologize if you show me where I can find it. He's my favorite super-hero, so I try to keep on tabs with him, and I would honestly like to know.

And as to why they aren't announcing it, I imagine to try and stir up interest in why he isn't there yet. Recently, Marvel has been all over the place with the webslinger, and considering this is a new generation of MvC, could it be a new generation of Spidey? Don't know, can't say, hope to find out.

YAY! VIEWTIFUL JOE!

I loooooove using him in TvsC. So I can imagine he'll be similar if not the same in this.

Yay? I already knew both of these guys would be in it... I didn't know Dormammu would be playable, so I guess that's cool...
Anyone else you want to announce Capcom?

Well, it seems like the right time for someone to remember Capcom still has the copyrights to Killer7 and God Hand. Just sayin'.

But finally, a proper Dante vs. Viewtiful Joe fight now.

Viewtiful Joe and Dormammu Enter the Ring in Marvel vs. Capcom 3


Another two fighters have been announced for MvC 3: one quite familiar, and one a little bit more obscure.

Capcom has filled another two spots in Marvel vs. Capcom 3's [http://www.amazon.com/Marvel-vs-Capcom-Worlds-Playstation-3/dp/B003IEBO9Q/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1282151948&sr=8-1] thirty-strong roster. On the Capcom side is Viewtiful Joe, who most recently appeared in the Wii exclusive fighter Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All Stars, while on the Marvel side is Dormammu, a demonic entity made of energy who is making his videogame debut.

If you've been following MvC 3's development, you'll know it was just a matter of time before Viewtiful Joe was announced, as his very distinctive silhouette could clearly be made out in trailers announcing previous characters. Dormammu, on the other hand, probably comes as more of a surprise, as he's not the best-known Marvel character around. He's not really any more obscure than fellow Doctor Strange villain and series regular Shuma-Gorath though, and it'll be interesting to see how Capcom translates his terrible demonic powers into a 2D fighting game.

This announcement takes the total number of playable characters up to 18, meaning that that there are around 12 left to uncover. There are literally dozens of characters from previous MvC games to choose from, but there are also loads of new characters that could make an appearance. How does El Fuerte versus Doctor Doom sound, or maybe Doctor Octopus versus Dante?

Marvel vs. Capcom 3 is scheduled for release in the first half of next year.

Actually, it was obvious Dormammu was involved. I knew he was involved several weeks ago, when the Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 team released this trailer:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WZdQD2kEk4&feature=related

At the end of the trailer(3:13), that is clearly Dormammu. I recognized him from the 1990's animated Spiderman T.V. show. They covered a lot of stuff in that show.

I actually didn't know Viewtiful Joe would be involved though. D'oh.
