Message: [QUOTE="Octopus, post: 94950, member: 4"] That would be [I]MvC 1 [/I]or [I]2 [/I]you're thinking of with Strider, 2 being of course the mostly broken of these games. I know right? If I remember I think Spiral even mentions Mojo in her ending. Also her sprite animations are incomprehensibly good, so they really did them good on top of having them at all. I remember when Shuma came out as DLC for [I]3[/I], and so many people were getting confused at why there was 'a Capcom character in the Marvel side'. That's how carried he is by this series. Also, Blackheart is still in memorable things; he was the villain in the amazing piece of cinema, Nicolas Cage's [I]Ghost Rider[/I]. That's a good question honestly. [I]XMvsSF[/I] has some good ones with some great background extras, but I think I'd have to say either [I]CotA [/I]or[I] MSH. [/I] Poor [I]MSHvsSF, [/I]literally always forgotten. But yeah, that was the one with Cyber Akuma. Oh yeah, I saw that opening action scene and immediately thought of Capcom. The whole first episode is wild in terms of Cyclops action (remember when he falls out of the x-jet and slows his fall with a blast? I was so fucking hype) which I'm absolutely down with, the guy deserves it and I'm tired of Cyclops downplay. [automerge]1740492428[/automerge] It's a strange thing for sure, UDON as far as I know never touched specifically the [I]Vs. [/I]series. This does bring up something I've always found interesting about these games; the outsider perspective on what was topical at the time in the source material. Marvel sent over stacks of comics to Capcom when they first made the deal, and apparently it was a lot of everything being just a big mixed pile of mainly 90s stuff. Capcom obviously had no idea if any of this was still relevant, and so just threw shit in. The characters visually are very faithful like I mentioned in the article (complete with Hulk having normal speech and the tight haircut), but then you get something like Sabertooth being tied very heavily to Birdie, who was his henchgirl for like literally three issues before she got written out (they even referenced a very specific panel of him in his pimp fur coat and Birdie driving a Rolls-Royce in one of his match win animation). It's kind of fascinating, and really adds to the games charm for me. [/QUOTE]
