Outside of MMOs, one of the longest “gauntlet-runs” I’ve ever done for a single game involves Marvel vs. Capcom 2.
I picked it up from a local game store for Dreamcast, and played it for what felt like an entire day: I nearly unlocked everything. It was a breezy summer afternoon in 2000, and the world was my oyster. But as simple as it would be to say “that’s my favorite Marvel vs. Capcom,” it’s not! Let’s talk about the impact of each game, briefly, and discuss our top picks.
For the purposes of this post, we’re not counting X-Men Vs. Street Fighter, or Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter. Just raw mainline “Marvel vs. Capcom” titles, starting with Clash of Superheroes from 1998. We can add way more of those into the mix at some point, like Children of the Atom.
