Marvel Vs Capcom 2 Mix Tape now available free on PSN photo

Remember that collection of hip-hop tracks and remixes compiled as an alternate soundtrack for MvC 2? It was released on a super-limited 12-inch vinyl LP, and I was going to recruit a bunch of you guys to come with me to Nick Chester's house and tie him up while I snuck off with the one he got. Now I guess we don't have to do that.

As promised, Capcom has published the album in full at no cost, and it's available now on PSN. It's available as an assortment of individual tracks, and features works by Raekwon, DJ Qbert, Heiroglyphics, DJ toure and Mobb Deep's Havoc, among others. Go check it out if you've had enough jazz and want something a little different, yet still officially related, to serve as ambience for your fightans.

"Raekwon, DJ Qbert, Heiroglyphics,"

I think they also did covers for Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix.

Oh, and coming from a hip hop fan, Heiroglyphics are amazing.

I've been using Tomahawk's Mit Gas as my soundtrack, but this might be worth trying.

Raekwon.

I'll say it one more time: RAEKWON.

That's all that needs to be said.

Wait, how do you play these again? Do I have to turn the in-game music off and play it from the XMB? Halp.

@Los256 You download the tracks and play them over the games normal soundtrack you keep all the sound effects of the normal game but with new (great) non-jazzy music.

This will be an interesting little experiment. I have never changed soundtracks in a game before so this has the potential to be sweet. Also going to see Talib Kweli in Sept, so this will get me pumped!

I'm pretty damn excited. MvC2's soundtrack never really got to me (no, not even the abominable "take you for a ride") until two nights ago, when I was playing with my roommate.

We're sitting there in that arctic locale, having a nice Juggernaut vs. Roll fight (what? he has to give me handicaps like that, I suck), when suddenly I realize it's like some light, airy, jazzy love song is playing in the background. What the hell?

I second TheTolletDuck's statement. Anybody have a direct download link they can send our way?

Does the Heiro track feature Souls? Cause that'd be too awesome!
