I SAW THAT, it was crazy! Players that take the time to learn her are gonna be dangerous...and her Critical Edge is easily the most useful one of the cast [so far]

For those of you that missed the stream

I got so excited I gave birth to a new me = w=

Hmm, he's alot closer to his NEST saga incarnation (99-02), like for example he can't throw his fireballs (which still confuses me as to why they brought that back in the Ash saga...)

*sequels like the little fangirl she is*

A bit more Japanese gameplay

Couple of matches

More like why? Oh well... some character trials: [Shen Woo|Duo Lon|Elizabeth|EX Iori|EX Kyo]

Ver 1.01 footage is here! Celia II looks pretty crazy + w+

Don't forget about tomorrow's live stream!

Vita ver of Tag 2 rumored

I didn't pay attention of Trinity Souls, but I guess it's good to know it's non-canon [never actually watched it so, eh] And yeah I found it odd too, but now looking at it closer it's not green and is shaped differently from the Garu symbol, but my claim doesn't change too much yet, as it probably does still power up his attacks. Maybe he's like Cody and will be doing Criminal Uppers all over the place = w=

I have o no trouble distinguishing things, it's just the speed of it all, most characters can switch from high to low stupid fast, also everyone is going for your shins, so unless you see them aerial or an assist is called there is almost no reason to standing block (of course overheads being one of the exceptions). And the fact guaranteed unblockables can and will happen don't help matters either. And really good blocking will only get you so much since chip in this game can be ridiculous on some moves. There are 2 play styles you need to get really good at; rushdown or keep away. By rushdown I mean you have to have a fast and fierce point and either 1 or both assist set for locking down your opponent, and then never let up the assault (advancing guard seems so irrelevant with these teams). And keepaway means getting an annoying character [flight] and keeping all the distance and being annoying with ranged attacks, but ya know what's even more annoying about these teams? THEY HAVE GOOD ANNOYING CLOSE COMBOS TOO!!! At the end of the day Marvel really, Really, REALLY shouldn't be taken seriously, once you succumb to salt you've already lost. And for whoever said it earlier, being bad at Marvel doesn't not make you bad at fighting games, lol. [just all my personal thoughts]

His Garu gauge is probably similar if not the same as Yukiko's Agi gauge. Also Akihiko's always been a muscle head, and you all have to realize it's been 2 games and like 2 years for those 2. But it makes me wonder about Trinity Souls' viability in canon.

Yeah it's such an obscure and niche reference I doubt ANYONE will actually get it off hand, regardless of their region. They were really scraping the bottom of the barrel with this reference but I guess it's kinda cool their showing some love to one of their smaller, less known series.

Well at least this update didn't have twitter icons.....

No it's not... That's one of the oldest misc fact about Ryu ever. He once woke up with a spider in his mouth and it freaked him out so much in turned into a phobia. Sadly in SF4 he doesn't show this when up against Juri but in MvC3 (even in the original) he'll state his distaste for them when facing Spiderman

Some day 1 Japanese footage

There's a bit of Celia in today's (2) vids, also this isn't ver 1.01 footage (yet)

Tekken Hybrid releases next week, here's the first 7 minutes of Blood Vengeance (limited time only)

HD resolution screens of Yoshimitsu, Cervantes, Aeon, and Xiba Also apparently the Lizardman we've been using in past entries was just 1 of a random many, the reason the team is calling him by his proper name now is due to the fact this is the TRUE Aeon, the FIRST Lizardman!

Maybe due to the fact Capcom has been trying (and succeeding) keeping everyone similar to their original incarnations. Nelo Angelo and Vergil have always preformed differently, to ignore that is just a disservice to both the company and fans, thus I'm ok with this middle ground that was reached. X has actually wielded Zero's sword before, and they do share similar abilities (air dash, buster) so it's justified. Mei-Ling doesn't really have any abilities outside of merging with her sister, also it comes down to a general lack of viable options for her. Gloria is fitting because that's all it was, a disguise, she was shown to have some dagger abilities but this was most likely due to resourcefulness due to giving up Sparda (sword) to show her faith to the Order. But again, this isn't leading anywhere productive so I'm gonna stop here. What?

...You know I was reffering to their human forms right? The art team based "Corrupted Vergil" on the "Sparda" look (obviously) and at one point featured a different Devil Trigger. But I digress, the point is seeing how they're both "Sparda" it's not a huge bend for them to have the same Devil Trigger. You call it laziness, I say it's a creative middle ground, cause if he did appear as Nelo Angelo I would be expecting a different moveset, which is just too much work for a costume, they'd need to have an "EX" Vergil. Also that's a nice easter egg for Deadpool, lol x.x (Zero needs something like that too :3) It's funny people give DMC2 so much crap when it started a couple of traditions. Was it perfect? Hell no! Was it so abysmal to the point to deny it's existence? Nope.

Well seeing how Nelo Angelo attacks NOTHING like Vegil and his weapon is a large sword, it makes sense. Besides that design was based off the Sparda design to begin with in the original game. Honestly I would've preferred Dante having a DMC1, 2, or 4 alt :\ Since Vergil has limited options. An original design could've been nice.
