In some ways, these games are antiquated and flawed, and in other ways they're delightfully beautiful and forego any sort of tournament level fairness to just say, "what the thell, we're having fun?" and I love it. I haven't played these games in about 30 years and they actually look better than I remember. The frames of animation, the art, its all truly peak model of its time and dare I say rivals the sprite work of Street Fighter 3, although if you wish to nitpick SF3 is better but these game, despite being on an older engine, is definitely comparable. I bought this for a trip down memory lane and I got it. What I found was a save system, ability to edit the arcade game difficulty and other settings, and all the features that were missing in the last capcom collection I saw. I wish I could go back to being a young boy at the bowling alley, marveling over this game all over again and since the past doesn't exist anymore by known science, this game is the next best thing. I can smell the excitement I felt as a young boy and experience things in true authentic fashion. I hate this gay future.

This collection has MVC 1 & 2. MVC2 is the best fighting game ever made, in my opinion. You don't see games like this anymore and you can tell there was a lot of love put into it. A crazy amount of characters to choose from and each of them feel unique. There are some characters that can "infinite" but you have the option to not play them. I'd suggest staying away from the online, since there are some people that have grinded this game longer than you've been alive. I'd still give this collection a 10/10 just for MVC 1&2 but the other games are just as amazing. Do not pass on this when it goes on sale.

9/10 Would play MVC over and over again. I'm not gonna force anyone to buy this game. But sometimes there's a rare occurrence in history that you want to buy a game that made a franchise so well know, you don't have to be a gamer or a fighting game fan. Hell, not even a comic book fan. You know this franchise. You've heard of this franchise. Now you can finally play this franchise in it's full entirety. Either in English or Japanese releases. You got 7 games total in this collection. 6 fighting games and a side scrolling beat'em up. You can change the difficulty for the AI in the games to be very easy to move reading difficult. In some games, you can now play as some of the boss characters and/or hidden characters you couldn't before, or with the need of a certain code. Plus a gallery or concept art and music from all the games. A training mode for all 6 fighting games to practice combos and the mechanics. There's also online VS mode, but who needs that? You got X-Men: Children of The Atom (COTA). The game that ironically started the Marvel fighting games. And it was during the high popularity of the X-Men 92 cartoons. The game feels a little stiff at first. But once you get the feel for the controls, you'll start to feel on how people managed to make it feel so broken. If you played the 1st Darkstalkers game, you can already tell they borrowed elements of the game while adding a few new things to make it its own. Fair warning about the arcade mode. The final boss is very cheap and if you're trying to get the ending of each character, you might break your controller or smash your keyboard for how unfair it can be. Marvel Super Heroes (MSH) is the 2nd game of the MVC franchise before MVC was a thing. You got returning X-Men characters from X-Men: COTA. Now with new faces from the Marvel franchise come into play. Such as big comic book heroes such as Spider-Man, Iron Man, Captain-America, and the Hulk. To forgotten villains such as Blackheart and Shumagorath. The controls are a bit smoother than the last game. Adding a new gimmick with the inclusion of the Infinity Gems that grant special passive effects to change up the game play. Some gems benefit certain characters if you can find out which ones work out. Of course, the arcade boss is unfair in the end of the game. But not as unfair than the last game. So you got a chance for this one. X-men VS Street Fighter is considered to be the progenitor and the boon of the MVC franchise. With the popularity of both franchises respectively at the time, CAPCOM decided to say what if we had a fighting game that featured them in a 2v2 tag team game? But let's be honest. This was during the time CAPCOM was reusing sprites from previous fighting games to make it feel like it's a new game. Sprites from the 2 previous games here, and reusing sprites from Street Fighter Alpha for the SF characters. Provided with a few tweaks and 3 new faces in the X-Men roster of Gambit, Rogue, and Sabertooth. Rogue being the only unique character who can steal and use attacks from the opponent she power drains in this game only. It's a fun game, and when you beat the game's arcade boss, it ends in a 1v1 of fighting your tag team partner to see who gets their respective ending. Marvel Super Heroes VS Street Fighter is the 4th Marvel fighting game and 2nd MVC game before MVC. This game is considered to be known as the "black sheep" of the franchise. It's not a bad fighting game. It plays well in its own right. The reason this game is overshadowed is for the roster of characters given from both sides. Yes. The game subtracts the X-Men down to have Marvel mainstays from MSH to fill the spots. Not only that, the roster on the SF side was very questionable as well. Who asked to have Dan on the roster? Other than that, the game plays fine, and they add a bit more to the tag team mechanic than the previous game. The boss is still the same from the last game. But they add in a new last boss you wouldn't imagine on making. Side note: you can play as a another hidden character in this game if you play the Japanese version of this game. Marvel Vs CAPCOM: Clash of Super Heroes is the game to start off the MVC franchise and name only. 5th game of the collection as well. And the name doesn't lie. No longer just being SF characters. We now have characters branching out from other CAPCOM franchises. Morrigan from Darkstalkers, Jin from Cyberbots, and even Mega Man from...Mega Man. A new Marvel face appears in the roster of the inclusion of Venom from Spider-Man and War Machine from Iron Man. Faces from the previous games of both sides make a return too. Provided they all have new and/or unique moves in this game only. A new robust tag-team system that can mix up the game. And to pick a 3rd type of support/striker character with an attack to add in the mix ups. The arcade boss of this game is possibly the hardest of the collection. This game can be overshadowed a lot due to the popularity of the next game. Marvel VS CAPCOM 2: New Age of Heroes is the crossover game we all know about. Even if you're not a fighting game fan, a Marvel fan, or even a CAPCOM fan. You know it. You love it. You probably played it. This is The Game. With a roster of 52 characters, 26 from each side, that's a huge roster of characters of a game reusing sprites from previous games. But there are new faces and sprites or returning characters from each side that I can't list them here. Ditching 2V2 for 3V3 tag-team battle. A new robust mechanic. Sacrificing the 6 button format for a 4 button format to have a LP and LK and making the 2nd buttons to be a MP to follow up with a HP. And same for MK to HK. You can follow up with one hyper combo with another, or have the entire team launch their hyper combos at once. Some characters have newer attacks in this game than the last game or from their respective game. The arcade boss is fairly mid. As long as you know how to keep your team alive. There are no character endings in this game due to the massive roster. And uses jazz music for the game stages are oddly questionable. But it works. It can be endless dauntless fun. And a must buy for this collection. The Punisher is a side scrolling beat'em up. Featuring The Punisher and Nick Fury as only playable characters. Both characters play somewhat the same. With the exception to their double tap attacks. A very brutal, painful beat'em up not only using your fists. But the usage of iron pipes, swords, knives, ninja stars, jousts, grenades, and even guns. Face mass amounts of enemies and very tough stage bosses that will take a lot than more than your punches to take them down. Can you reach to the end of the game to take on the head boss know as The Kingpin? I highly recommend playing this game with a friend than alone in the side scrolling mayhem. The only negatives of this collection are that there are no challenge modes in this collection. No console ports of the games that have differences than the main arcade ports. No advanced training modes to be more in depth of characters and/or game mechanics. So if you want those, look up any high profile fighting game YouTuber video on that, or the gameFAQs on the Steam page. There is an achievement list not just for Steam, but in the game as well. However, this is more on the line of bragging rights. You don't unlock any extras in the gallery or anything. So they're there. The biggest turn off would be online ranked matches. For you're gonna get jumped by professionals who've played these games in the past to today. I only recommend playing this game mainly with friends to get together, or for nostalgia. The online play is fine. Even if you're playing the game via Steam Remote Play. At the end of the day, get this collection while you can. Or else it will be put back into the vault in the void once more when it comes to licensed games. Never to be brought back.

Perhaps the best fighting game collection ever. The games play extremely accurate to their arcade counterparts and are all absolutely must plays. If you're hesitant to hop online in MVC2 due to the legacy players, try the other games that are less volatile in comparison. You may end of with a new favorite fighting game. Glad to have one of the best fighting game series back.
