Tekken Tag Tournament was the shit at the arcade I worked at.

So much so that it forced my boss to get off her giant ass and rake in the easy money of having tournaments for the game.

For a measly five bucks, you too could have the honor of getting beaten in a game you were sort of interested in by some weirdo who smelled like he slept in a van the night before.

Luckily, for the plucky Sega Dreamcast, there was a game that offered not just teams of two on two fighting, but three on three Thats an improvement by a percentage I cant even calculate because I suck at math.

Capcom on the PS1, but that was a severely bastardized port that made the tag feature all but worthless.

During my Saturn ownership, I never played the critically acclaimed X-Men fighting games because I was a dumbass middle school student who was only interested in 3D graphics.

Such hubris forced me to overlook some of the better games on the system.

Capcom 2 I had a slight interest in the Dreamcast, but this game was the main selling point for me.

It was the only game I picked up when I bought the system, and it was all I played for the better part of that summer.

Eventually, I would forget all about it once I finally played Soul Calibur, but that is a story for another day.

This game more than doubled that with a roster of 56 playable characters.

In the Marvel realm, I was always partial to Gambit from X-Men, but the standout for me in this particular game is Cable, who says Fuck you and brings a handgun to a street fight, as well as a much larger gun, and Im not talking about his penis.

Mastering when to unleash hyper combos is also a joy, as racking up a 50 hit combo on an opponent is still as satisfying today as it was nearly 20 years ago.

In that game, once a character is knocked out, the round is over, whereas in MvC 2, the fight continues until the entire team has been knocked out or time expires.

Its not necessarily worse, but I prefer the strategy that comes with having to swap out a player on the verge of a KO to prevent a loss.

Tagged out fighters will regain a bit of energy as they sit out of the action which adds another nice wrinkle to the game.

Jill Valentine Mvc2 Sprites PS3 And Xbox

Thankfully, the game was released as a downloadable title on the PS3 and Xbox 360 back in 2009, but I believe is no longer available.

An iOS port was also available, but I have never played this particular version.

Jill Valentine Mvc2 Sprites Series As Iron

Surprisingly, the game did see a sequel in 2010, but the success of the films had worked into the series as Iron Man was definitely influenced by Robert Downey Jr.s portrayal.

For this reason, MvC 2 still feels as pure today as it did at the turn of the century.

If youre lucky, theyll have a cabinet of this game, and you can partake in the only massive crossover event this franchise ever needed.
