P.S. Iron Man and Hulk seems out of place... I know it's still in it's early phases, but they just seems so out of place!! They're so shiny! >:(

I was thinking the same thing when I was looking at the screens earlier. I'm sure it's just lack of a texture layer or something like that.

I'm not seeing a whole lot different from the trailer, but guess new screens are new screens.
The art style is... Better than the duck faced sf4 types. I kinda wish there was amazing sprites.

I don't even like fighting games and this is jizz worthy.
Also, all that boulder punching should have trained Chris up good to take on Hulk...

It's the fighting system that most matters to me, but I have faith that they will not screw it up.

Looks great, and hope it will be as fun as marvel vs capcom 2 and not the overcomplicated mess that was sf4 which most 2d fighters seem to resemble.
I must confess though a part of me wishes this was like the discared ea marvel fighting game by the guys behind fight night 3, with real 3d fighting around destructable enviroments

Yup. D-toid got scooped by my month old copy of Game Informer. Who says print media's dead?

Guys, guys. Clearly you're missing the most important thing. Fuck MvC3, LUOIS VUITTON OS GOING TO UNVEIL THE RETROSPECTIVE DISPLAY OF THE DESIGNER IN THE WORLD EXPO SHANGHAI PLAZA! HOLY SHIT!
I don't know about you guys but these fine, fine screenshots of MvC3 just don't compare.

Why do companies hate Sprites so much now. Don't get me wrong these graphics look *pretty good* but they have that kind of fake celshade/comic look that games have been trying lately. Sprites look EXACTLY LIKE COMICS why try so hard to not use them.
Sprites would equal PSN or XBOX Live sales I suppose. And that would mean less money. If a developer is going to release something it is going to have to use the technology available and sprites would be a step backwards.
About sprites- Sprite art is definitely cheaper to make than polygon-based graphics if you hire the right people. There is no way that KoF XII was more expensive to make that SF4.
I'm sure that Capcom went with polygons because they thought it would appeal more to the Western audience, and I bet they're right.
Still, MvC3 doesn't look too good in these screens. The game doesn't look like a comic to me, more like a Boris Vallejo painting. Still, that might change once it's put in motion. Capcom never fails to deliver amazing animation, so there is still reason to hold out hope.

@Holmes: I've read a lot that sprite art is now more expensive to make since fewer people have that skill set. Most graduates know how to do 3D but have very little 2D knowledge. On top of that, for fighters, you need to make a ton of frames of animation; every move has to be animated facing left and right. Back in the day, companies would flip the sprite to save on that work but in this HD era that cannot be done anymore. With a 3D model, once the model is done, animation is relatively easy to do, especially when compared to sprite animation.
Each character in KoF XII took the equivalent of 18 months of work. I doubt the SFIV models took nearly that long so it's quite likely that KoF XII was more expensive to make than SFIV.

@nilcam: why can't sprites be flipped anymore? of course they can...
but i agree, i was also under the impression that sprites are costly and take forever, especially if you want a smoothly animated game.. 60fps would be practically out of the question
as for the screenshots... i'm not thrilled with them.. they look like an early 90's 3d movie.. but i suspect that they'll look much better in motion

I could go with more of a dotted comic book look. This looks like...like...what a Wii might look like in HD.
The effects are pretty sweet though. I like that part.

Is Chris's face not finished or something? Every shot he's in, the face is obscured. Just noticed it was weird.
I am buying this game. I don't like fighters, I may never even open it, buy I just want it in my life.
Yeah, these graphics are totally missing a texture layer or something. The hulk looks too smooth and shiny, like he's right out of Killer Instinct! :D
I'm sure this looks 100% better in motion though.

Am I the only one that thinks that Wolverine looks like he has three (rather large) boobs in the title pic (the one where he's cutting into Ryu)?
Also, the lighting really looks wrong in that pic. The background is very dark and yet Ryu looks like he's standing in a spotlight, especially his feet (do they glow in the dark or something?)
Wolverine's claws look really messed up too. On his left hand (bottom of the pic), the claws all look parallel, but they don't look parallel at all on his right hand (top of the pic).
Maybe I'm being too critical, but when someone says "this is going to look awesome" I expect something better than the pics I'm seeing.

Uggh.. I know they managed to make SFIV look fantastic, but Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom was just completely unappealing after fifteen minutes, and this looks just like that game but shinier. I seriously was just hoping for something akin to BlazBlue, because the KoFXII sprites still don't HD, just very fluid. And roughly 30 characters? Come on. If you're going to cut corners by ditching the sprites, give us like 60. I'm not paying $10-15 bucks a pop for DLC and definitely not getting scammed by SUPER MvC3 Turbo.
I just hope the hit detection is better than SFIV was, I hated doing a Focus move while your opponent was halfway through your body.

@smoger: Technically, sprites can be flipped but if Sagat has an eye patch on both eyes or no eye patch at all people will notice. In XII, Kyo only has one chained wallet so the sprite has to be modified in order for that to happen.
@cruzzercruz: I still find that TvC looks better than SFIV and KoF XII owns the crown for beautiful sprite work and animation.

To me its losing the appeal that MvsC1 and 2 had... It worked for SSF4 because of the slow paced gameplay but this doesn't look appealing to me...
Ah, that's what it is! It needs to be cel-shaded. They just look like Ken dolls come to life.
This game will be awesome regardless.

Oogly! Wish it looked more like TvC or SFIV instead of some ugly ass shadowy mess. Look at ALL the previous MvC games (including SFvXM etc) they all look nice and bright and colorful not like this garbage. Fix it Capcom!
Not really digging the art style yet. Hopefully it looks better in motion. Redfield looks good. Hulk and Iron Man not so much. This is probably a must buy for me regardless, but from these still screens I have to say I prefer the look of MvC2 so far.
The hulk and ironman look like they're made of plastic sadly. Also not a fan of all the effects they've got... Some of them block out half the visible screen.
Hope they can fix it up.
