Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3

Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3

It seems Capcom is really on top of these enhanced re-releases. Not even a year after Marvel vs Capcom 3's release, they've turned around the now expected overhauled version at the price of $40 and added the word \"Ultimate” in front. With twelve new characters and tons of tweaks and changes, this is certainly the definitive version of the crazy crossover fighter, but is it be worth the investment? That all depends on your previous experience with the orginal MvC3. If you skipped MvC3 back in February (perhaps because you weren't in a rush and knew this version would come), then for $40, you're getting a very solid fighter with a huge cast and lots of attention to detail. There's a deep well of possibilities and hardships—but don't expect the game to educate you in any way. Unlike other modern fighters, such as BlazBlue, there is no tutorial here of any sort, so you'd best look up online what the mechanics are if you're a newcomer. There is a Mission Mode, which merely runs you through progressively more complicated combos for each character to open your eyes to the wealth of possibilities, but that's about it. UMvC3 is not here for you newcomers, and a few online sessions of getting caught in ridiculous, inescapable combos will swiftly make this clear.
