This collection brings so many memories. Being able to play some of your favorite comic book characters vs SF was the perfect geek/gamer mashup. Peak arcade timeline
@@ElAssoWipe-o Nope. Even kept in Roll's Panty shots from MVC1/2. Though they did remove some real life images from the Japanese ending of The Punisher.
@@skunthundler There's one page pertaining to Mega Man in the gallery where they pixelated Ruby Spears Mega Man's face because of licensing rights issues.
I think Sentinel is one of if not the best sounding fighting game characters ever. From the voice to his movements just cool attention to those details really immerses the player into "Oh yeah he's a robot"
At least me personally,that’s how I always play fighting games. The character could be the lowest tier possible, I don’t care. I think they’re cool,I’ll use them. I don’t get how people don’t find it boring to play nothing but high tiers all the time.
When I played MvC1 as kind maybe I was like 6 or 7 when I had it on the PS1 I loved the look of JIn and would just play him. His Gun Super and Blodia Punch was hype. I usually would pair him up with like Ryu so I can get the Headband team going. No idea how good it is but it looks cool doing it.
Absolutely love a new generation is gonna see Hayato in MvC2, go "who the heck is this guy?", then find Star Gladiator/Plasma Sword. Cannot wait for that second Fighting Collection.
Dude, when I played the PS3 version back when I thought Hayato was the coolest, and you better bet your ass that I'll be playing plasma sword when it comes out.
Your Hayato/Jin/Ken team was really fun to watch. I low-key wish there was a version of the matchmaking queue that removed Mag + Storm. MvC2 is always a lot more fun when neither player runs them imo.
@@BillerBeemstar I honestly don't mind most of the high/top tier. Like, is Sentinel cracked? Hell yeah he is, but counterplay does exist. ...I don't ever have that same feeling when I play against Storm or Mag. Instead, you just kind of have to hope your opponent fucks up and lets you get in on them, and hoping your opponent is bad isn't really where I want my fighting games to be. I guess I also feel similarly about Iron Man, but despite him literally being the instant TOD guy, he still feels less cheap to play against than the King and Queen of MVC2.
@@BillerBeemstarThere is Ratio mode, but you gotta set it up with your opponent. And to be fair if other players are good with top tiers they would probably mess you up with low tiers too.
The only thing that kind of sucks about watching MvC2 matches is that even tho there is such a large roster of characters because of the meta everyone uses the same ones, would be cool to see matches were everyone has to use a different team per match, that would be sick!!!!!
I just wish they would release an MvC2+ where they add 10 more characters (mostly reused sprites) balancing and bring back some old 2d stages and effects
@brotatochap_7563 or people really try to get good with underrated characters but that takes an enormous amount of time and discipline...like that guy who won the big smash bros tournament with a yoshi 😂
Man, I hope you know how great it is, seeing you make these videos and just how happy you are to have these games back. I just wish... ... ...I wish the Zaibatsu was still around. Have one last Fisticuffs of this collection.
You'll be sorely disappointed, the top tiers start at MSP(Magneto, Storm, Paylocke) getting countered by MSS(Magneto, Storm, Sentinel) and that getting countered by Team Santhrax(Sentinel, Storm, CapCom)and Matrix(Sent, Storm, Cyclops) and both of those getting countered by MSP. It's a lot like 3rd strike: you know there's 3 or 4 in the A tier, but top 8s will always yun/Chun mirrors.
Probably less crazy since In Ranked people care about points so they play the best characters an play them in very similar ways leading to High level in comparison to seem stale
ranked is all about the top tiers can be fun if you are crazy competitive but for those wanting to have fun with a diverse team comps avoid ranked stick with casual matches
Im guessing he means 6arakin, dude trys to farm clout by challenging better fighting game streamers to play him but he always gets his ass whooped @@duxnihilo
I'll never forget how pissed off I got at MvC2 back in 2010 when I was playing it on my 360. I would blink and Magneto would move across the entire screen and deliver a %100 combo so fast the game looked like it was skipping frames just trying to keep up with him. I've never played another fighting game where playing against someone who's good with the top tiers is worse than fighting an SNK boss on max difficulty. Literally the tiniest little mistake, like whiffing a quick punch, is guaranteed death thanks to touch of doom combos. The disparity between the low tiers and the gods made me want to rip my hair out. I understand it takes skill and execution to pull off, but watching my point character get killed in five seconds before I could even react was absolutely maddening. Add on the general disrespect I got for it and I broke several controllers over this game.
It's definitely a game a lot like melee where the skill disparity is huge because of the jank and the experience level, but it is what you make it. I hated playing on the PS3 version for the same reason, but it was so fun trying every characters moves and playing in training, so it got me to learn fighting game moves for the first time. Imagine my reaction when I realized Sakura in Street Fighter 4 didn't have anti-air fireballs or a dark mode, lol
MvC2 is a very jank game I have a love-hate relationship with. Then again, every classic Capcom fighter is jank in their own ways. The low tiers are basically playing a very different game compared to the gods. Combos are shorter, damage is usually low and they just have less tools. It feels like every low tiers gameplan is basically a short combo paired with an assist to extend the combo and with little to no mix up and movement options as air mobility is very important in this game.
I do hope the ratio system that people have been pitching takes off. Like have it in your tag so people know you wanna do ratio. I think it breaks so much life back too this game that you can't use the usual suspects all together
I love this game, it's the reason i flunked college though. They had this and KOF98 in the school cafeteria. Whoever made that decision is not only stupid but awesome as hell. lol

This was actually so fun to watch Loved how seamlessly you switched between games Loved how you played low tiers like hayataro and jin And this whole match 21:24 was legendary
Listen . . . when I played MVC2 back in the day, I used Hayato, Captain Commando and Strider, and you couldn't convince me of a better team no matter how many times I lost.
I loved Cap Commando too. He floated in that middle spot for a while while I was rotating teams after I retired Cyclops from my mid/anchor, till I fell on Rogue. I fully agree with you on coolness factor.
Better frames and color palette. They removed some of the frames of animation for MvC1 and 2. It's a shame because they look so much better in the earlier games.

Just have a projectile assist and an invincible anti air assist to cover up most of his weaknesses. Also use jumping HK as your main overhead as it has more range and can build meter faster than jumping HP.
@@ThrashMetalWolf666 If I may add to this as a long time Hayato player. Two of your most important tools are the plazma field and your plazma combos. Combos give you quite a bit of play in the timing so you can delay them to throw off blocking. You'd be surprised how often you can make someone think it is their turn when it is still yours with them. The plazma field is self explanatory. Free supers for him for a few seconds, but the major thing is try to make sure every connection of it converts into the B.Hayato slash. And always remember since the B.H slash is cancelable if you have level three bars, pressure, cause your opponent knows a touch can convert, so many will start jumping more, where your anti-air assist can come in and do work.
Man that opening. Brought me right back to my arcade days. Hyato was one of my mains and doing that to people always made them "sit up" so to speak given they were standing cabinets. Or if I could end it with my usual Rouge into black Hayato into Strider Ragnarok. 5 meter dump but slick as hell.
Max you are the reason I started playing fighting games. Got mvc2 on ps3 for like $10 when I was in middle school and I couldn't beat the boss so that led me to your "Max and Mike Ross vs the world" series where I learned about cheddah gief and msp and synthrax and clockwork and all of that. You pioneered so much hype and love for this game and I'm so glad that its happening again. Plz consider playing sometime with mike ross again. Would make for good content imo. I know this is just a one in a million comment shot into the void but I love what you do and you always say that you got big because of mvc3 assistme series but I was watching the mvc2 stuff man and always loved it. Peace. also because of you me and the fam still say "GIMME BACK MY SON!!!!"
Ruby Heart and Amingo were originally designed for a new Darkstalkers game, but that game got scrapped! So, to date MvC2 is the only game that you will find thise to characters.
When someone keeps choosing the top tier characters that have the best moves in the game, the skill will reeeeeeeally show. AND THEN NAMING THEMSELVES AFTER THE KNOWN META TEAM IN THE GAME LIKE THEY'RE DOING SOMETHING UNIQUE, MAGNETICSTORM, REALLY?
Fun fact (for those that don't know): Hayato is from a fighting game called Star Gladiator. The game director was Hideaki Itsuno. He later on went to make the Devil May Cry series (from 2 to 5) and Dragon's Dogma 1 & 2. And now he announced that he is leaving Capcom. I wish nothing but the best for him.
If you guys havent heard of Ratio mode in MVC2 you can find people online who do lobbies, or just make friends and explain the rules/tier list for ratio- high tier characters use more points than lower tier ones, so it forces you to get some sauce with ass-tier characters if tou wanna use someone like Magneto or Sentinel, or you can use 3 low-mids instead
I can only imagine if they brought back Primal Rage, what my 29 years of playing that game religiously would do in PVP... I've hit a ceiling from playing CPUs that i can't break without PVP, wish the game was in fightcade or something
22:20 Ragnarok was NUTS. Also, I had the same moments of hand ache via a claw grip style on a Switch Pro Pad (the HORI Split Pad Pro is AMAZING for handheld, I will say). I kept having to shake them, stretch fingers and pop knuckles. My wife (who has watched me play fighting games for 20+ years together) would say "not as young as you once was, huh?" 😂 Have yet to try my HORI mini fight stick so I feel safe assuming I will go through the same "muscle memory cramping" issues.

Fastest fifty bucks I ever spent. Once I figure out the right input delay setting so my punch dashes come out consistently it's game time. They may have removed Juggs' power glitch but his head crush and Spiral's grab are very much still mashable so I'll be fine. I wonder if Dood petitions a little more we could get tier lobbies for newcomers and people tired of fighting the same two teams?
XvsSF is the game that introduced me to Akuma and Charlie, MSH introduced me to Thanos the Mad Titan (wasn't a comic geek as a kid) then MvC was the debut of my all time fav Marvel character: Venom, the Vs series are my childhood
Hey Max! For that Dr Doom combo around 12:30, are you flying after the initial 3 hits or is it a dash before you do the last two hits to special? Was trying to lab this one since I’m learning doom 😁
It really is the worst feeling of working to get good/great/excellent with characters you truly love/appreciate/are a fan of...and then facing a buddy who's just going for pure meta/top tier and picking characters they genuinely don't like or know nothing about...all because of a bit of coding here and there.
A few days ago I can't track character attacks, just a few games in I can actually see what attacks look like now. Its crazy how a few hours of immersing im the game can do
I can *SMELL* every arcade I was ever in putting a token on the console waiting 2 play XvSF I *LITERALLY* feel like I'm back there now just hearing this music again
Ignore that other one with the dismissal. Least if you are going to disagree give reasons. More so when it was apparent what you were responding to was personal opinion. Sprites definitely had a unique charm to them. 3d can work too but anyone growing up through this time will have a soft spot for sprites and the levels of effort to animate things. What I really miss was how fun the backgrounds sometimes got. And usually also meant we got to see them over training stage cause the lag argument held very little weight back in those days.(I still call it malarkey and think the players that wanna do training stage just want the extra help in spacing that that stage gives.)
In the words of Maximilian: "Compared to the god tiers in this game, 90% of the roster here is low tier"
And I will have so much fun playing them because you have to put in work to be good with those high tiers

I know this is just a one in a million comment shot into the void but I love what you do and you always say that you got big because of mvc3 assistme series but I was watching the mvc2 stuff man and always loved it. Peace.
also because of you me and the fam still say "GIMME BACK MY SON!!!!"
Dood switching from entertainment mode to gotta-humble-a-sweat mode against Mag/Storm/Psylocke, that's what we're here for ♡
Ruby Heart and Amingo were originally designed for a new Darkstalkers game, but that game got scrapped! So, to date MvC2 is the only game that you will find thise to characters.
Not true Ruby Heart is in KOF 14. Get your facts right
@@TheNaturalGamer1 Get YOUR facts right. Thats a different character from some crummy pachinko SNK game.
When someone keeps choosing the top tier characters that have the best moves in the game, the skill will reeeeeeeally show.
AND THEN NAMING THEMSELVES AFTER THE KNOWN META TEAM IN THE GAME LIKE THEY'RE DOING SOMETHING UNIQUE, MAGNETICSTORM, REALLY?
Fun fact (for those that don't know): Hayato is from a fighting game called Star Gladiator. The game director was Hideaki Itsuno. He later on went to make the Devil May Cry series (from 2 to 5) and Dragon's Dogma 1 & 2. And now he announced that he is leaving Capcom. I wish nothing but the best for him.
If you guys havent heard of Ratio mode in MVC2 you can find people online who do lobbies, or just make friends and explain the rules/tier list for ratio- high tier characters use more points than lower tier ones, so it forces you to get some sauce with ass-tier characters if tou wanna use someone like Magneto or Sentinel, or you can use 3 low-mids instead
12:30 I’ve never seen butter gun into tron assist into butter again into launch before, that was sick!
Hearing that hayato is low tier makes my chest hurt.
20:55
Sweep into Psyblast into launcher? Almost got STYLED on, this game is insane. I'm not even good at it and I love it.
I get cooked but I'm enjoying it lol
Man I hate people that in a game with 56 chars still use a screwed S tier team
Low Tier Dood in the building! 😂
😢😢😢
Duuude, that Plasma Field to Raging Hayato, I always gonna love it!
I can only imagine if they brought back Primal Rage, what my 29 years of playing that game religiously would do in PVP... I've hit a ceiling from playing CPUs that i can't break without PVP, wish the game was in fightcade or something
I heard the only reason that game is not released was cause the code was so wild they simply can't.
I think there's something really fun about some of the best characters in MVC2 originating from COTA. Magneto, Storm, Psylocke, Sentinel, Spiral, etc
That is a neat fact
22:20 Ragnarok was NUTS. Also, I had the same moments of hand ache via a claw grip style on a Switch Pro Pad (the HORI
Split Pad Pro is AMAZING for handheld, I will say). I kept having to shake them, stretch fingers and pop knuckles. My wife (who has watched me play fighting games for 20+ years together) would say "not as young as you once was, huh?" 😂 Have yet to try my HORI mini fight stick so I feel safe assuming I will go through the same "muscle memory cramping" issues.
I love marvel 2 with all my heart but just seeing how online play is I just don’t want to get it like Jesus man
Yea I had it the last release and it wasnt that bad but I just dont wanna play with 90% of the matches being a mix of the same 6 characters.
@@illprox9679 YES!!! It’s the same ones over and over again. So many characters but the same ones to put you in the corner all game and infinite combo you
@@zuz713My brother and I call them the Insidious Six. I wanna buy it but i dont know how many instant losses i can take a day before I just turn it off
That's the thing with all fighting games. They were a lot more fun before we knew what the hell a meta was and shit like that.
@@AintNobodyAtAllMetas ruined PVP games across the board.
8:25 let’s go!!!! Jill gambit and Ken!!!! 8:34 sick grab w the zambo!
I only play low tiers in MvC2, and I’m battling my way through ranked. Send me all your high tiers
Fastest fifty bucks I ever spent. Once I figure out the right input delay setting so my punch dashes come out consistently it's game time. They may have removed Juggs' power glitch but his head crush and Spiral's grab are very much still mashable so I'll be fine. I wonder if Dood petitions a little more we could get tier lobbies for newcomers and people tired of fighting the same two teams?
What's a punch dash?
@@TheLoneDrow916 Pressing both punches to dash instead of ->-> or
XvsSF is the game that introduced me to Akuma and Charlie, MSH introduced me to Thanos the Mad Titan (wasn't a comic geek as a kid) then MvC was the debut of my all time fav Marvel character: Venom, the Vs series are my childhood
I love watching you play MvC2 Max! That game has so many good memories for me and I am practically crying now that it is available again! :)
Now if only we had a proper Versus mode where players 1 and 2 can select our stage and characters each time. Ya know, the basics!😂
Been playing MVC 2 and been getting completely destroyed but it has been fun and enjoying it.
TNS and your channel are the only things keeping me alive
22:20 Down, LK, MK, HP, UP, (IN AIR) LP, LK, MK, Dash forward, Half circle + LP HP.
Hey Max! For that Dr Doom combo around 12:30, are you flying after the initial 3 hits or is it a dash before you do the last two hits to special? Was trying to lab this one since I’m learning doom 😁
It really is the worst feeling of working to get good/great/excellent with characters you truly love/appreciate/are a fan of...and then facing a buddy who's just going for pure meta/top tier and picking characters they genuinely don't like or know nothing about...all because of a bit of coding here and there.
23:10 - 23:15 good stuff, Max. I love seeing Magneto get his.
Max is right I play ranked with all 6 games active the transition from game to game can be challengining but it adds a extra layer of fun
That keep away game with Jill was fuckin hilarious 😂😂😂
A few days ago I can't track character attacks, just a few games in I can actually see what attacks look like now. Its crazy how a few hours of immersing im the game can do
I didn’t know hayato was low tier lol I just played him b/c he was cool
Can’t wait to finally play these games!
Max in X-Men vs street fighter and marvel vs street fighter after the versus screen I shout Omega Boost! 😅. It fits so well
As a ryu cyclops player I respect the pick
I can *SMELL* every arcade I was ever in putting a token on the console waiting 2 play XvSF
I *LITERALLY* feel like I'm back there now just hearing this music again
X-men Vs SF was the first VS series game I ever played on the arcade at some billiards location
This was so good, Iron Man, Cap and the Lego guy
Xmen vs street fighter feels good.
Cyclops's theme music is and always will be the shit that gets you in the groove of kicking someone's ass. lol.
Funny how this is more fun for you than all the new fighting games😂😂😂...can't beat the classics
Max is having a blast 🤣 get ready for more vids on this collection
I once beat MvC2's story mode without continuing
That's the spirit! Everyone loves an underdog
Xmen vs streer fighter will be always my fav fighting game.
God EVO next year is going to be so hype
Minimilian Dood: LTG
Hayato, my baby.
Always loved him as a 7 year-old.
Nowadays, my team is Megaman, Hayato, Bulleta.
Thank you for this.
*overstimulation nightmare is happening on screen*
"oh the connection is a little funky here"
how on earth can you tell
Thanks for showing why I'll never get MVC2 or any collection involving older fighting games. Balance is nonexistant lol.
I've always felt the 3d MvC games lacked soul compared to the 2d MvC sprites.
Wrong
Ignore that other one with the dismissal. Least if you are going to disagree give reasons. More so when it was apparent what you were responding to was personal opinion.
Sprites definitely had a unique charm to them. 3d can work too but anyone growing up through this time will have a soft spot for sprites and the levels of effort to animate things.
What I really miss was how fun the backgrounds sometimes got. And usually also meant we got to see them over training stage cause the lag argument held very little weight back in those days.(I still call it malarkey and think the players that wanna do training stage just want the extra help in spacing that that stage gives.)
These are truly glorious days for us MvC series fans and players!
That colossus assist is crazy
It’s so good🤣
I just play who I like against the computer or friends. Respect to you and Justin Wong for how good you are.
