The skinny on the new content:
Marvel vs. Capcom 3 is getting beefed up big time this November. Entitled Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, the new release will sport eight new stages, a spectator mode, balance tweaks and 12 new playable characters including Dr. Strange, Ghost Rider, Hawkeye, Iron Fist, Nova and Rocket Raccoon, plus six new Capcom characters. See the full roster and trailer and gameplay videos after the cut.
Joystiq lays out the roster from both sides of the videogame conflict:
Capcom:
Strider
Firebrand
Vergil
Frank West
Phoenix Wright
Nemesis
Marvel:
Ghost Rider
Dr Strange
Nova
Rocket Raccoon
Hawkeye
Iron Fist
For me personally, I'm really excited about the Marvel side. I don't know much about Nova or Rocket Raccoon, but I think they'll be great additions to the roster. Hawkeye's new special(revealed in the video) is one of the most awesome specials I've seen, and is reason enough alone to pick him as a character. Ghost Rider will be awesome just because, and hopefully they'll eventually DLC Blackheart so a team of them can be made. Iron Fist I'm not a huge fan of, but I can see him being a very Ryu-ish character, and I like Ryu so I'll like him. Dr. Strange is just plain awesome, and I can't wait to see what kind of moves he has.
The Capcom side though...meh. I guess I'm not all that excited about them is because I've never played Phoenix Wright, Devil May Cry, Strider, and Frank West is not visually appealing to me. I didn't particularly care for him in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom either. Firebrand looks cool, and even though I've never played any of his games I'll gladly use him. Last but not least Nemesis(never played RE 3 in depth either..hmm maybe that's why I'm not too thrilled) does look cool, and it'll be nice to have another hulking character on the roster.
Also, Pre-order bonuses!!!
Gamestop:
Best Buy:
Amazon:
I hope these are made available as purchasable DLC, because I want Elvis MODOK.
And now for the bad news....
The game will retail at a discount(I surmrise $40) price. So I'm going to have to buy it again. Crap.
However, considering the new content it won't be all bad, so I'm game.
Thoughts?
