IT'S MAHVEL BAYBEE! ESRB confirms Marvel vs. Capcom 2 for Xbox 360 and PS3 photo

Oh ESRB, will you ever learn?

Marvel vs. Capcom 2 has received a rating for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on the ESRB's Web site like so many unannounced games before it.

Additionally, the game has shown up on PartnerNet, further adding to the legitimacy of this whole ordeal for the skeptics out there.

I don't think it even needs to be said how exciting Pringles this news is for us. Fans of MvC2 have been begging for the game to be released as a downloadable title since LIVE Arcade was created, and that dream is finally going to become a reality.

WHERE YO CURLEH MUSTACHE AT!?

Why is this such a big deal?
Why don't you all just play it on your Dreamcasts?

The finding of this today totally made me bust out the old Dreamcast and play some... Street Fighter Alpha 3. While I do have some MvC2, I felt like playing as some Balrog.

This is some definitely interesting news. I'll wait and see how appealing playing this online will be to justify buying a game twice.

its gonna be $15-$20 just because of licensing issues. I still have my DC version so I'm good but its good that some new people can check this out.

I think this game is testament to Capcom's forums and finding out what we want. If this has online play, which was sorely missing from the previous cut, I'm so buying it.

It'd be REALLY interesting if they gave it any sort of HD treatment, soundtrack additions, character additions, or most of all, offering an optional rebalanced mode.

I have everything unlocked on my Dreamcast version. I doubt I will repurchase and re-devote myself to getting everything again.

That is, unless they overhaul the graphics and make them fully 1080p. Then I may be in trouble.

This makes me happy. I have a dreamcast but not a version for it and the PS2 version is expensive.

the game's pretty good.. but it's not worth 60 bucks so the download will be much appreciated. :)

I'm sure it'll be the arcade version, not the PS2 version.

Please, somebody, anybody remember me saying this was going to happen, since LAST Christmas? In every front page post relating to MvC2? That I have a friend in Marvel, and they've been talking about it since last Christmas"?

I said this 2 posts ago, today, in the "Matlockery" post:

"Second: Look for MvC2 on XBLA in the future, w/ new downloadable character packs. My friend at Marvel said this was in the rumor mill last Christmas. "

Oh fuck it, its actually happening!!!!! AWESOME!!!
