Ranking Every Marvel VS Capcom Game WORST To BEST (Top 6 MVC Games)

Now with X-Men '97 being a thing, and with Disney's acquisition of 20th Century Fox, an "ultimate" edition of MVCI might happen. I'd be down to play as Rogue in a game with 50+ characters and with copy abilities for her, something Nintendo and HAL already did with Kirby in Smash 4 and Ultimate.

Marvel 2 legitimately never gets old. I’ve been playing it for 20 fucking years and still never a dull moment and I’m always hyped when I get to play some matches. What else can you say that about? It’s up there with Chess in terms of longevity and value.

Xmen vs SF is a "fun little fighting game"?? Wow. I consider that one a masterpiece in all aspects and no, it has not been forgotten by the fighting community. But besides that, great video! Keep up the good work

[@daric_]

I love the entire series, and I want to love MvC2 more than I do, but it feels like the two biggest problems make it hard for me to absolutely love it: 1. It has a TON of characters, but there are a handful that are so powerful that, if you want to play anyone online, you're probably going to get your ass kicked unless you use those best characters. I love the variety of characters, but it's obvious that there are a few characters which rise to the top and there are a ton which are mediocre or just plain bad.+ 2. Continuing with the online...the people who still play it (whether on Fightcade, the various console re-releases, etc.) have been playing it since it came out and will also probably kick your ass. It's hard to find anyone in your particular skill bracket.

[@jessewatkins6151]

I think, or at to me this best one is mvc1, now mvc2 was great, and the roster is the best, but things like 3v3, the back grounds, and even though i love the music as a whole it just doesnt fit. That being said capcom vs snk 1 while had more in relation to mvc1 i liked cvs2 more than the former. I think at least to me i wanted capcom vs snk more than mvc, but im glad we got 4 fighting games under capcom vs snk games under a wide range of consoles, also i think 3 snk vs capcom card game rpg style games as well

It was the hypest and one of the longest lived competitive fighting games of all time. Just because you're bad at it doesn't mean it's not a good competitive game.

[@cygnusxar]

I agree with this ranking... Infinite is a good game but not a good MVC game... While MVC2 has variety of character and addicting soundtracks(especially select screen theme)

Infinite felt like it was trying so hard to be Marvel: Contest of Champions.

The main issue with the first vs games is lack of missing characters and the stages recycled

Lack of missing characters? Say that out loud

@@SKAR__FOXthank you lol

[@Cynicool]

Honestly the list is good but i think despite not having my favorite character Venom mvc3 is my personal favorite mvc game the artstyle is beautiful and fits the characters perfectly the gameplay is very fluid and even more fast paced then the other games in the series along with that the modding scene recently has been fantastic recently adding Venom Carnage Ultron and many more as fully custom characters with brand new abilities similar to there already existing ones and new themes which is always great but Mvc2 will always be a top 3 fighting game of all time

[@mizanulhoque9657]

Can't argue with this list

[@chilangotattoos1010]

X men vs street fighter its in last position???? Whatt? That game basically put the basic for all upcominf games. The characters are great selection having in mind the xmen were very popular back then. And also cant beleiev its behind marvel heroes vs street fighter. And i can notice you put mvc2 in fist place because the quantity of characters but theres only a few good ones so i woulve put marvel vs capcom 1 in firar place.

[@paulakroy2635]

You are wrong. Zero and morrigan become hyper oppressive without x-factor

Congrats you've taken away most of the game's access to high damage and the disparity between characters like Jill & Strider when they have to deal with Zero & Spencer killing off of any hit is even larger. Have fun.

[@MoonlightMaskG]

X factor really ruined the game man, you take care of two characters but you have to worry about a mechanic that helps the opponent get a free comeback due to high damage

[@glazzy4826]

MVC3 will always be my favorite because its the one I grew up with and feels the most polished. I think it just has the most content and just oozes with personality

[@TeewanJerry]

Having played all those games, I find myself in total agreement with your list. MvC2 is not only the best of all the games in the series, in my humble opinion, it is the best fighting game ever! The fact that it is still enjoyed by players today, is a testament to how good this game actually was.

[@danzby6990]

marvel vs capcom 2 is pretty much all that came before in one package , amped up. I think that's why it's the best. I think it would be cool if Capcom did something crazy like Marvel vs Capcom vs DC vs SNK Crazy idea like that will probably never happen. It would be cool though.

This only has 8 and as u said some of these are basically the same marvel superheroes vs capcom and xmvc plus most people are in it for mvc2 and mvc1. Its crazy overpriced for roms. Idk if the license was alot or they did a cashgrab. No way to buy em separately either like the arcade collection.

MVC2 and MVC3 are goated

[@wg8561]

Most of your points are pretty good but... You said MVC2 had the best sprites and graphics of the 2D games? Nope. The sprites were terrible campared to the previous 3 vs games. They were smaller and pixilated. Also the backgrounds were boring and generic 3D instead of the far better 2D backgrounds from MVC. I have all these games on saturn and dreamcast hooked up to a sony pvm for reference. Also the music is generally considered pretty bad. There's even remix versions for it. Gamewise and roster though yes it's the best. Could have used more darkstalkers characters though. Infinite is awful though. They need to go back to 2D or at least the 3D that looks 2D like dragonball fighterz. While they're at it if they want to give us a crossover with dragonball... YES take our money!

[@vaudou_]

@@homeoftek5844 "Especially Cable". You do realize there are like 4 characters better than him right? And the only reason why 7 or 8 characters are picked in high level play is the fact that the playing space is too large so that fly characters dominate and only the characters that control space like Strider/Cable/Spiral can fight against them.

@@homeoftek5844 You were so concerned with posting an emoji that you didn't read. Cable isn't the best character in the game at all. In fact no top player thinks he is. Only low levels who base their opinions on arcade mode that's "too easy" do. And look at the top 8 of UMVC3 when it was still a main game. 8-10 characters at most with the power of X Factor. There's a difference between people playing random side tournaments and the best of the best playing to win. When they do you'll find out that UMVC3 isn't that much more balanced. If MVC2 had the smaller stage size of 3 then it would have been the more balanced game by far. That's my point
