Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Review (red_deity)
This is a legendary fighting game. Easily the best crossover fighter ever made. The roster has all the expected picks and some great niche picks. All the characters play and feel like they're supposed to. The adaptations are pitch perfect. Everyone has the best voices, and they are all written perfectly. Everyone is in character, and their personalities shine through gameplay all the time. both in how they play and how they talk to each other.
Gameplay is smooth as butter. Combos are responsive and fluid. It's fun to improve at the game, and it's extremely rewarding to do so. This got me into fighting game commands, and they feel great here. and there are extremely hard combos for the most dedicated players. The visuals are fantastic. The 3D environments are taken full advantage of. We have cinematic camera tricks to emphasize attacks in ways the 2D games couldn't do. Every moveset greatly improves upon the older games as well, while still respecting the old moves. The game feels unburdened by corporate interference. Knowing it had a troubled development make it more impressive.
This game is a miracle.
