Capcom's Vs. franchise has a long, proud history of serving up epic, cheap, larger-than-life final boss battles that serve to annoy you as much as thrill you. In the past players have had to face characters like Apocalypse, Onslaught and Abyss. Marvel vs. Capcom 3 goes one step further, serving up Galactus, a cosmic being from the Marvel Universe that must devour planets to stay alive.
Artist Chris Cayco, who we’ve featured a few times before on Kotaku, grew up playing Marvel vs. Capcom (and Marvel vs. Street Fighter) games. His tribute to this, which took him over 175 hours, was to combine every single character to ever appear in Capcom’s crossover series in the one enormous image.
Makes me despise Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite that much more
So much wasted potential
As common as it is today, it is hard to believe that there was a time where gaming franchises crossing over was just a pipe dream. Capcom broke down the wall, but they took the combination of some of the most unlikely of franchises and made it the norm.
Whether it was a colossal successful partnership with Marvel Comics or a collaboration with rivals Namco and SNK, the “Vs.” series brought unforgettable experiences to the fighting genre.
Marvel doesn't just have a bright future ahead of it in films, but in the gaming realm as well. Some exciting new titles are showing up on all hardware, so does that mean gamers are finally catching up with the MCU?
looking forward to kicking the crap out of another oversized, overpowered and unbeleivably cheap capcom last boss! i hone my gaming skills on this sort of challenge!
Stupid choice Capcom how many years do you have 3 or 4 perhaps.
