Great Arcade classic comes home to PlayStation... flawed, but still fun, Feb 25 2007

Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Marvel Super Heroes Vs. Street Fighter (Video Game)
It's a shame that the Sega Saturn didn't succeed in North America the way that it did in Japan because they received the Arcade perfect version of this game for the Saturn and to this date there still is not an Arcade perfect version of this game for any home console. You could probably find someone selling a Japanese Sega Saturn on eBay or something, but that's a lot of trouble and who wants to buy an entire foreign system just to play just one great game (and maybe X-Men vs. Street Fighter too!)?As far as the PlayStation version goes, you are forced to select only one fighter and an assisting teammate due to the PlayStations lack of RAM and VRAM (the Japanese Sega Saturn version requires a packed-in 4 MB RAM Cartridge which allows the game to play exactly like the Arcade version with minimal load times). However there is a trick if you are playing a 2 player game! If both players select the same characters, then you are able to play the game the way it was meant to be played: 2 vs. 2 tag-team! This game plays almost exactly like the previous years X-Men vs. Street Fighter on PlayStation with some new features and different characters. If you liked the way the PlayStation port of Marvel Super Heroes played then you will like this even better since it is more of the same with more character variety and more colorful graphics. Aside from the cutbacks in gameplay style and missing frames of animation (another downside to the PlayStations lack of RAM!), this game is enjoyable enough if you aren't obsessed with the Arcade verion too much. I would still go for the Japanese Sega Saturn version since it is Arcade perfect or wait (and hope) for Capcom to release a Marvel Anthology or another Capcom Arcade Classics compilation with X-Men: Children of The Atom, Marvel Super Heroes, X-Men vs. Street Fighter, this game, Marvel vs. Capcom and Marvel vs. Capcom 2. C'mon Capcom!!!!!!

Great, considering the 2D capabilites of the Playstation, Nov 6 2000

If you don't have a Dreamcast and you love Capcom's Vs. games, Marvel Super Heroes Vs. Street Fighter for Playstation is a decent alternative. There are some notable flaws, as the Playstation hardware is just not made to run these type of games. For instance, the biggest let down is the abscence of tag-teaming (the Playstation does not have enough RAM to store more than 2 characters within one loading session). Then there's the animation...there are definetly more than a few frames missing, but once you get used to it it's OK. However, there a few gameplay extras Capcom included to keep players interested: a "helper" character for each match, a healing vitality gauge, and a combo system that allows you to chain hyper combos together. Best of all though, the gameplay stays relatively fast with minimal slowdown (with the exception of extreme activity). This is another very noticeable improvement over the Playstation ports of Marvel Super Heroes and X-Men Vs. Street Fighter. If nothing else, Capcom is to be commended for putting up with the Playstation's limitations to squeeze out the best possible port of this game.

This review is from: Marvel Super Heroes Vs. Street Fighter (Video Game)
The classic Capcom fighting game interface has yet again been reincarnated to the form of an all out battle royale between a select group of characters from the popular Marvel Comics and members from the memorable Street Fighter II series, as well as the more recent Street Fighter Alpha games. The fighting in this game gave me a much more "super hero" feeling than many other games of the same genre, and the constant action left me in a state of giddiness for hours after play. However, there was a slight drawback to the excitement in the way of two characters whom I have no idea why Capcom chose to put in the lineup of fighters, Blackheart and Shuma-Gorath. These two characters were awkward and their movements were strange and unusual. I thought it would be more exciting to have other, more reknown super heroes to take their places, such as possibly Storm from the X-Men or Iron Man, but other than that, it was a great game that kept me and my brother on our feet yelling at the top of our lungs for hours.
