ESRB Watch: Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 rated for the Xbox 360/Playstation 3 (!!!)

[Shard]

Right, been doing one of my periodical digging through the backlogs of the ESRB ratings and this time around a doozy of a rating.

Marvel vs. Capcom 2 CAPCOM Teen Blood, Suggestive Themes, Violence PlayStation 2, Xbox, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3

Well, there is it, Marvel Vs. Capcom is unofficially officially coming to the HD era in some fashion, most likely as a XBLA/PSN release. You may commence the rejoicing.

Made my day.

[Wurm]

Yes. PartnerNet never lies! My first GAF insider tip

I half wanted to post again in that Ben Judd "Ace up their sleeve" topic as I pondered if this is what he could be referring to..

[VisionaryQuest0]

Pure sex.

[brandonh83]

Never played this, but I'm excited because you guys are excited.

[Doublethink]

I hope the PS3 one isn't based on the PS2 version. No slowdowns please.

[john tv]

Hawwwwwwt

[PSGames]

the ace of spades!!!

Yep. WOW if true!!! Day 1!

And hopefully the proceeds will fund a sequel

[RobbieNick]

I would be EXTREMELY pleased if I hadn't just plunked $50 down on a used Dreamcast copy.

[Rorschach]

OMG TAKE ME FOR A RIDE PLZ!

Oh...wait, thought that said "3." :''''(

I never got into this, in large part because it never had online play in any version.

GGPO netcode please?

[sykoex]

Thank fucking god this game already came out before the age of microtransactions otherwise the game would probably cost about $300 to unlock all the characters.

[Wurm]

Oh goodie, thank you for confirming this. (Not that there was much doubt)

Well theres nothing running on PartnerNet, just it showed up as a title with a SSF2HD icon for some reason. So to be honest I'm just going by your ESRB rating as well now to vindicate my throbbing erection and desire to be taken for a ride.

[plastik]

Cool, no more regretting I sold my Dreamcast version.

[AZ Greg]

[gray_fox224]

Shit, I'll be buying for both consoles

"I want to take you for a ride...."

God, I love the jazz bgm in the game.

Well, that does sound like corroboration and the ESRB is pretty damn reliable when it comes to this sort of thing.

[gray_fox224]

Someone just forwarded this:

whoa

But, I thought the ESRB were going to pull their listings from the web due to these kind of leaks. I heard that on 1up yours.

[iconoclast]

Awesome.

Everyone needs to buy this to help fund MvC3.

[Wurm]

Someone just forwarded this:

Yep. And away we go!

[john tv]

A lot of weird stuff turns up on partnernet -- I wouldn't count on it being 100% legit, but I sure hope it is!

[MechDX]

Close the Garage!!!!!!!

[FightyF]

The Xbox version of this game is hard as hell to find even used so this is GREEEAT news.

I suppose this means there's online play...eh?

[sprsk]

I want.

[Aaron]

I recently went back and played MvsC2 after not playing it for years, and immediately found it pretty unsatisfying. While the assists and teams mix things up, the core fighting is really basic. I'd much rather have a lagless GGX or KOF XI online. At least KoF '98 is coming.

[neight]

Hopefully this'll mean the prices on the Dreamcast version will go down.

[Shard]

Well, here is the thing, the ESRB has attempted to get sneaky with some of the ratings, note the Xbox/Playstation 2 tags, I found this at the very back of the Playstation 3 area. It appears when an old game is re-rated for a new system the rating stays with the old date, pops-up in the back instead of the front, that is why exploration is needed at times.

[Shard]

Well, in this case, we have two pieces of evidence in Partnernet and now the ESRB, it presents a much stronger case then the either one would alone.
