Marvel vs. Capcom 3 is real

<< < (9/31) > >>

Storm Rider:
Yes, they are. None of the remaining characters on that list would persuade me to change from them though, is what I meant.

Well... maybe Frank West if they got his original voice actor back and his moveset was cooler than in TvC.

Storm Rider:
Double posting because there is some BREAKING NEWS

Gamestop leak confirms MvC3 will have DLC characters. The first two are Jill and Shuma-Gorath, and will be included with the Collector's Edition. Indirectly disproves that scanned roster, although I guess the Niitsuma quote about shapeshifting characters being harder to do in polygonal model wasn't as hard-and-fast as I thought. Guessing Jill will be probably completely different from her MvC2 incarnation because they'll probably use the RE5 design to fit in with Wesker and Chris.

McTaggart:
Apparently Japan fucking loves Shuma-Gorath.

JD:
Man I wish I got an Xbox instead of a Wii

Storm Rider:
Here's the new list that everyone is referring to as gospel because it accurately predicted the two DLC characters, although I'm still skeptical for reasons I will detail below:

Marvel
Taskmaster (unlock)
Shuma-Gorath (DLC)
She-Hulk
Deadpool
Captain America
X-23
Magneto
Modok
Hulk
Spider-Man
Dr. Doom
Sentinel
Storm
Phoenix/Dark Phoenix
Super Skrull
Dormammu
Wolverine
Iron Man
Thor

Capcom
Amaterasu
Ryu
Rad Spencer
Chun Li
C. Viper
Hsien-ko
Jill (DLC)
Chris
Wesker
Dante
Trish
Arthur
Felicia
Morrigan
Viewtiful Joe
Tron Bonne
Mike Haggar
Akuma (unlock)
Zero

So here's why I'm not 100% buying this list:

1) Niitsuma more or less said outright that some form of Mega Man would be in the game. He's the single most important Capcom character, leaving him off the roster would be like leaving out Spiderman or Wolverine for Marvel. It just makes no sense.

2) Frank West was a silhouette in the very first trailer for the game. Granted, Seth Killian said that not every silhouette ended up making it into the game, but Frank West was already in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom and is one of the most popular characters Capcom's introduced in the last 10 years since MvC2 came out. Tweaking him to fit MvC3 would take a lot less effort than building (for example) Spencer or Arthur from scratch.

3) Niitsuma also said more or less outright that there would be no more Darkstalkers characters beyond Felicia and Morrigan. He also heavily implied there would be no more 'shoto' characters besides Ryu because they wanted to make every character play differently, which makes Akuma a puzzling addition.

It's also several characters short of the 42 number that has been the rumor for months, even if you include the two DLC characters that will be hitting a full month after the game releases. I don't know anything about the Marvel side so I can't speak about its accuracy. Mostly I'm just hoping it's fake because I really want Frank West and Strider to be in the game.

Oh, and a little detail I forgot to mention: Marvel vs. Capcom 3 will be released on February 15th, 2011.
