Got an email from Capcom;

Hi,
We just announced two new characters for Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds at New York Comic Con 2010.
Sir Arthur, the brave knight from Ghost ‘n Goblins, is charging in with his full arsenal of classic goodies. And if that wasn’t crazy enough, Nathan “Rad” Spencer is swinging in for some combat action and he’s bringing his ever-useful bionic arm with him for a little show and tell. Other Capcom comrades will include Wesker, Tron Bonne, Viewtiful Joe, Amaterasu, Dante, Ryu, Morrigan, Chris Redfield, Felicia, Trish and Chun-Li.

I'm currently trying to get onto the press site, but the damn thing is hammered. I'll be updating when I get the assets...

Edit: F*ck it, just scroll down. There are a boatload of screens for you to get all giddy over

(Also, there's a screen with MODOK on it. Yeah, MODOK.)

 

[Gravijah]

Sir Arthur! -does the robot-

 

[HK-47]

This should please the retro crowd

 

[kenta]

And then two more characters tomorrow morning, right? Gambit and someone else? Surely some obscure left-field unknown Marvel nemesis

 

[Peff]

Capcom side is looking really good so far.

 

[Crisis]

Bout time!

 

[Kusagari]

YESSSSSS! Glad to see 2 characters that weren't expected in.

 

[sixteen-bit]

RAD FUCKIN' SPECERRRRRR

 

[Seraphis Cain]

I love you, Capcom.

I love you so so much.

 

[Hours Left]

Arthur? Sweet.

Also, please be classic Rad Spencer design. Perhaps Rad is the silhouette that everyone assumed was Frank West?

 

[LongDongJunon]

"Hotdogs" Rad?

 

[Dr. Zoidberg]

Yes! As a confirmed BC fanatic I am pumped about Spencer making it in. Unlike most of you I really enjoyed both recent BC games.

EDIT - Yes, let's make sure its "Classic" Rad Spencer, please.

 

[Urban Scholar]

Arthur finally is getting his dues in a fighter after all these years. Gentlemen I dare say, I'm rather hyped.

 

[rollingstart]

Poop dreads better be an alternate costume for Rad.

 

[Sir Ilpalazzo]

Arthur? Sweet.

Also, please be classic Rad Spencer design. Perhaps Rad is the silhouette that everyone assumed was Frank West?

No, that silhouette was carrying a camera and it matched up perfectly with Frank's Dead Rising art.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Arthur? Sweet.

Also, please be classic Rad Spencer design. Perhaps Rad is the silhouette that everyone assumed was Frank West?

I remember hoping against all odds that was some classic Rad and not a Frank silhouette.

 

[jett]

More characters straight out of the "fake" leak.

 

[V_Ben]

F*cking press site. Sorry guys, can somebody else try and get the assets too? I'm having no luck over here.

 

[sixteen-bit]

No, that silhouette was carrying a camera and it matched up perfectly with Frank's Dead Rising art.

But this game has new art for all the character silhouettes. Could have been Capcom trolling.

 

[Hours Left]

I don't remember the camera.

*Goes to look*

 

[Teknopathetic]

Man, my team is all fucked up now. I was planning on Deadpool, Dormammu, and a third. I want both Rad AND arthur. FFFF.

 

[Peff]

But this game has new art for all the character silhouettes. Could have been Capcom trolling.

I think Trish's also matched, but then again they've said that not all silhouettes will be in the game.

 

[Sir Ilpalazzo]

But this game has new art for all the character silhouettes. Could have been Capcom trolling.

Some of the silhouettes have used old art. I know the first big collage had a Dormammu silhouette that came right out of Google Images.

I don't remember the camera.

*Goes to look*

It wasn't visible in the first image with Frank, but there was one shot of a bunch of silhouettes where you could clearly see that he was holding his camera on his shoulder.

drop deadpool

thank me later

 

[TheFightingFish]

Quality picks from Capcom. I love characters being brought in from non-fighter genres.

 

[Tucah]

Sir Arthur? AMAZING.

 

[Solune]

Fuck yes ARTHURRRRRRRRRRRR!

 

[Seraphis Cain]

Deadpool, Wesker, and Rad.

My dream team is complete. Thank you, Capcom. Thank you.

 

[MrTroubleMaker]

yay! Arthur

 

[Enk]

pssh Arthur. Who was ever asking for him?

 

[Hours Left]

It wasn't visible in the first image with Frank, but there was one shot of a bunch of silhouettes where you could clearly see that he was holding his camera on his shoulder.

I don't think I've seen that one. When was it released?

 

[TheSeks]

Meh.

BRING BACK JILL. :|

 

[Door2Dawn]

Who?

 

[Barrage]

Spencer's look is based on the newest game (Dreads + Green wifebeater...)

 

[Teknopathetic]

"drop deadpool

thank me later"


No can do, I don't care if there's an army of Deadpools online. Only a Q-Bee announcement would make me consider dropping him.

 

[Absoludacrous]

I know people like to hate on the leaked list, but once again....

 

[Seraphis Cain]

Spencer's look is based on the newest game (Dreads + Green wifebeater...)

PLEASE BE JOKING.

PLEASE.

MY DREAMS HAVE BEEN SHATTERED.

 

[Kusagari]

Yeah, I'm following a liveblog at http://marvel.com/news/all.14263.nycc_2010~colon~_marvel_vs~dot~_capcom_3_panel_liveblog

It's the new Spencer from the GRIM game.

 

[Aske]

Spencer's look is based on the newest game (Dreads + Green wifebeater...)

Lame. Should be an interesting character to play though.

 

[Hours Left]

Spencer's look is based on the newest game (Dreads + Green wifebeater...)

BLARG.

 

[h3ro]

Spencer's look is based on the newest game (Dreads + Green wifebeater...)

:lol

[Teknopathetic]

"Spencer's look is based on the newest game (Dreads + Green wifebeater...)"


I DO NOT APPROVE.

 

[Big One]

[Face it Tiger..]

Is it the 'stache one or the dreads one?

ninja edit: fuck I just clicked the link.... it's the dreads one.


EDIT: thread is going mighty fast.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Why would they base it on a game that is pretty much universally agreed to be a financial and critical failure?

 

[Bebpo]

wow, that pic of Spencer looks terrible.

He looks even worse than the design from Bionic 3d!

 

[Peff]

That's a downer, but... the symbiote !

 

[Hours Left]

Nathan looks awful. :/

 

[Kusagari]

Is it the 'stache one or the dreads one?

Dreads. They announced a wide variety of Spider-Man alternate costumes though so there's hope that we'll get the real Rad as an alternate.
