Yeah, I noticed the main character of a fighting thing often seems to be a shoto clone. Jago, and Cyclops are actually the first two to come to mind. Oh, and Ryo of course.

Not really a hater but I think this would be fun to answer, so:

Blade
Thanos
Venom
Silver Surfer
MODOK

And after that, name me five CAPCOM characters that were not deconfirmed and that were not from Mega Man X and that are not DarkStalkers that you guys think are not wasted slots.
Mega Man
M. Bison
Proto Man
Miles Edgeworth
Frank West

as psosted on Shoryuken:

out of boredom(and having too much frre time), I made some vids talking about MVC3. yes, i know I sound like a drunk.
part 1-deconfirmed characters
YouTube - MvC3 rant 1-deconfirms

part 2-minor tidbits

YouTube - MvC3 Rant 2-annoying things

@above, it's not really that they are all shoto clones, it's just that Ryu essentially birthed the QCF.
Were you drunk?

as for your challenge, I posted them on youtube, a more accessible version of the ones added to my contribution for the Roster Game but with characters who just barely missed it that I and many other people also wanted (Black Widow, Panther, Regina, etc.)

The only thing that even cuts close for a "Waste of slot" for me would be Wesker, but since Resident Evil is THE BEST SErIES EVER RE 5 WAs SOOOO GOOOOOOD!!! I should stfu.

I think Frank West would be a wasted character slot! I'm sure the casual players would appreciated, but I can see people wishing for something else in the competitive scene later on! I'm tired of hearing Mega Man as well, but I guess I would let it slide for X! I'm buying this game for sure if either Magneto or Sentinel make it in! So far, the cast has been interesting, but I haven't been blown away!

I'm actually liking the roster so far. And the characters do seem pretty diverse which was something that I was worried about. Magneto's definitely going to make it in, I'm not sure on Sentinel. I'm really happy that Tron's in since she was my most wanted for those that I was unsure on returning.

BTW, does anyone here still play MvC2?

Tron really surprised me, and for once, I'm glad I was proven wrong and she was in the game. Magneto literally has to be in this game. No way in hell he's out. Storm's chances are also really good, one of the most popular X-Men since her debut and has also served as leader, and being a fan favourite in MvC also helps

I was just playing today ;)

What the competitive scene wants is new, interesting characters that are viable and competitive. They don't give 2 ****s about anything else other than winning. Frank West has an interesting playstyle, though he sucked in TvC, if he's top in MvC3, then no one will give a **** and play him. That's all competitive gaming is about, I don't see the point of this at all.

Ooooh, he's got a helmet on. Big whoop de doo.

So you are only blown away by returning character with already established playstyles? I see.

just read the last few pages and I gotta say

does anyone here even READ marvel comics?

First off this crossover game isn't going to be like MVC2. They can't just recycle all the sprites they want and make a game crazy fast like how they did with MVC2 (which was basically X-men vs capcom)

This is all about Marketing and including characters that appeal to both marvel fans of ALL comic series and capcom fans.

for marvel you have your staple characters that appeal to EVERYONE:

Captain America
Wolverine
Spiderman
Thor
Hulk
Iron man
and Doctor Doom

all these characters have movies and have been in movies, as well as being staples of marvel and easily recognizable, I'd be surprised if they WERE NOT in there.

and so many of the characters make sense if you're fans of the comics.

Deadpool has recently been getting more and more popular again with his own story arc that is supposed to be around 60+ comics as well as his own origins story and he is playing a very important role in the dark avengers plot (nearly killing bullseye and getting payed off by norman osborn (actually bullseye). Not to mention his popularity in Ultimate Alliance, deadpool is awesome (and what makes him more awesome is that he uses shoryuken in the game kinda like how he did to kitty pride in the comics
http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/u...ol_SHORYUKEN.jpg/220px-Deadpool_SHORYUKEN.jpg)

She hulk is an AMAZINGLY popular character in the comics and always has been. while she hasn't had her own story arc recently she played a MAJOR role in World War Hulk, one of the most famous stories marvel has printed recently, as well as being one of the few heros able to challenge Thanos in the infinity gauntlet.

Super Skrull is freaking awesome because they've reintroduced the skrulls sense the secret war (there is a deadpool story arc in which they give a bunch of super skrulls deadpools powers but they all go crazy because deadpool is pretty ****ed up in the head, and start killing everything. it was awesome)

X-23 is another VERY important character in the comic having a part of the new X-men and having played a role in World War Hulk and other plot lines, she even has an ongoing series atm.

Dormammu hasn't got much love recently but his appearance may give him a more popular role.

Punisher is pretty lame to.
I can't believe you said that, hes AWESOME and is SUCH A bad*** in the comics. although He won't be in his typical attire if the's in this game. if any of you read the comics you'd know that Daken (Wolverines son) chopped the punisher up into bits and threw him in a sewer, but they brought him back as this Frankenstien-Like creation called Franken Castle (still the punisher though).


Punisher: You know how to push my buttons kid

Daken: **** old man, you pissed yet?

Punisher: Little boy, I'm ALWAYS Pissed. (total bad***)

honestly punisher is what batman SHOULD have been. also the punisher killed his family because he wanted to stay the punisher, he's awesome.

assuming the Roster is 34 (just over 30 which is what they're shooting for). that would leave about 6 Marvel heroes left. factor in She Hulk and Silver Surfer(http://www.snk-capcom.com/?p=2106) that leaves 4, all of which I assume to be returning characters such as Magneto, and a few others.

For the Capcom Side:

I don't think I really need to justify any capcom characters sense you all play video games and know who is popular.

if 34 is the roster size they have 6 characters left to reveal and I imagine the rest of them would be

Frank West - Deadrising + Dead Rising 2 Hype
Alex (Sf3 rep)
C.Viper? just a guess but would be a nice sf4 rep
Strider/Captain Commando - Some character to represent a classic game present in mvc2
Zero - Megaman X (Fan Favorite)
Megaman/Rock Volnutt. - (Megaman is like capcoms Baby, they will include some version of him.)

@ Tomo: I know what you're saying about how you don't think Megamans Anime-like-look doesn't fit with the series but thats why it's a CROSSOVER. It's supposed to include characters from ALL universes, and It's funny because megaman in the marvel universe isn't THAT far fetched, you ever hear of Howard the Duck? but regardless because it's a crossover having characters you don't think fit is inevitable, look at viewtiful Joe.


TLDR:

Every Marvel character is justified (with the exception of dormammu) to be in this game due to popularity between people who READ THE COMICS, like marvel fans are supposed to.

Capcom is just going to include characters that will increase the popularity of their current game projects (Dead rising 2, Megaman Legends 3, etc.)

Hail to the King, Baby
Got the opportunity to play this game at Fight Night: Chicago Edition.

It's pretty sweet. Loved how Amaterasu felt, and his elements super is crazy sweet.
Deadpool is fun but I didn't get time to figure him out.
Dormammu has crazy stage control and has a pretty good fireball super (along with the general "this is kinda like a shinkuhadoken" thing).
I saw a lot of people do nasty things with Hulk.
I didn't get to use Viewtiful in the round I picked him :laugh:

Tron Bonne, X23 and Spiderman weren't in the build which made me sad (I don't like Spiderman but I wanted to use him anyway :()

I keep messing around with different teams whenever I get the chance. It'd be cool to play people here in MvC2 just for fun.

Some people do, I dunno to what extent. I've only read stuff from X-Men, Spider Man, with a bit of Iron Man. Comics cost a lot, but I'd read more if I could.

Lucky, my friend was able to go too. He asked me which characters I wanted him to try out. I said Spidey and Tron... -__- Oh well. Capcom should've let us played the newest build that TGS had shown on their last day.

I don't know about TvC, but if Frank West did sucked why would you want him in MvC3?

I guess you don't like characters that can tear s#!+ up!

Well, if anyone wants to add me to play MvC2 and haven't already added me, my PSN is Izanagi_XIII. I'm still not great as I'd like to be, but oh well. It's better playing people I slightly know that complete randoms in lobbies.

As for MvC3, it's weird, I still feel the roster is kinda small. Guess I've been spoiled by MvC2 and even SSFIV.

Really? I never saw anyone use him, and heard people complain about how slow he was, so I just assumed he sucked.
not being used much =/= being a sucky character. in fact, in TVC there are only 2 characters that would classify as sucky- Gold Lightan, and(to a lesser extent) Viewtiful Joe.

sf4 is easily the worst sf imo.

DS, GG, BB, and Marvel ***** the **** outta it too.
And yet you play it.

I try to get into BlazBlue, but I constantly fall in and out. I'd play Guilty Gear if I had a copy and a Wii arcade stick.

If anything, you can always buy #Reload in XBL if you want to try it out.

Personally, I think BB and SF4 are kinda on the same level.
They both have their good points, but there are some things I don't like about both of them.

Guilty Gear is pretty sweet, just got into it.

Too bad you suck balls for pretty much 6 months before you're anything decent at it.

on topic, I'm just hoping for the god tiers to come back.

the tears will be delicious.

I agree! I would give BB a slight edge, but I still think they are both around the same level! I would be all over SF and BB if they were both faster! Honestly, has anyone ever seen a fast fighting game that is boring?! This is why GG and MvC2 are the s#!+

Saying that Street Fighter IV is the worst game out of the series is like being subjective by saying that one of the Metal Gear Solid games was the worst. Just because it's the worst doesn't mean it's bad either.

They're all made of ****ing win. lol
