Based on the arcade smash hit of the same name, Marvel vs. Capcom 2 challenges players to rule the arena of two of the world's most powerful fighting universes. MvC2 offers an unprecedented 56 playable characters, three-on-three tag team battles, insane combat speeds, and various assist types for all sorts of gaming strategies. Interestingly enough, the Japanese version of Marvel vs. Capcom 2 offered online support and the ability to implement USB keyboards; strangely, the European and American versions of the game do not. Also available for the Microsoft Xbox and Sega Dreamcast.

Compared to Capcom's arcade-ruling Street Fighter II, its 1994 X-Men: Children of the Atom had a decidedly manic edge. CotM had screen-filling super moves, destructible arenas and crazy (at the time) combos. Capcom parlayed this success into a whole new series of fighters, first with 1995's Marvel Super Heroes and then with 1996's landmark X-Men vs. Street Fighter. XvSF marked the first game of the "versus series," of which each subsequent entry grew more and more insane. The series culminated in 2000 with the release of Marvel vs. Capcom 2, a tour de force of 2D sprites, 3D backgrounds and epilepsy-triggering light shows.
