They're unlocked from the start, already confirmed

Yay! No having to play for hours and hours to just be able to use the sillier characters. Even though I'd done it anyways.
 
Sony did have a money hat...

Street Fighter II HD Remix had a beta/demo released before the game came out so things like this are possible.
 
From the official websites blog:

In what will inevitably go down as the worst kept secret in recent years, I’m very happy to finally be able to confirm that Marvel vs. Capcom 2 will be coming to Xbox live Arc(ade)

Lol at sony moneyhatting demos. I won't be able to use my Hori stick on this because of this crap. But will download this day 1 anyway !
how about the fact that XBLA titles can't have demos before they are out?
 
Possibly Bullshit: theres some exclusive content related to MvsC2 coming to just one of the consoles /Possibly Bullshit.

GONNA FIGHT TO THE END, AND YOURE TAKING IT ALL.
 
This Thursday, April 30, PlayStation Network users will enjoy a free, exclusive MVC2 demo! No need to purchase another game, just download it straight to your PS3 and get ready for some triple tag team action (A big thank you goes out to Rommel Hernandez who helped make this exclusive demo possible).

So nice of Sony.
:lol

:lol

yep guys gotta be money hats.


fucking sad.
I think Capcom is the only dev to sell their demos, eh? (See: Bionic Commando MP Beta to Xbox Live, MvC2 to PSN, RE4 exclusive to 360 in Japan if I'm not mistaken, etc.)

Pretty nuts.
 
Same online as HD Remix? That was a buggy piece of shit on PSN. =(

Will wait for impressions.

Capcom just shot themselves in the foot......


yeah, looking forward to 10 pages of melt downs over this. just to clarify though "fucking sad" was directed at the people who care, not whether it happened or not.
 
I own this game twice. I shall own it a third time.

EDIT: PS3 version, of course. My Sega Saturn USB pad is the greatest investment ever. I'm loving the rebirth of fighters.
 
The other main updates come in the graphics department. The same original assets have been used, though now you get to see them in an upscaled and widescreen look. Because the fighters are all 2D sprites, they'll wind up looking a bit pixilated when scaled up to run on an HD television. You can stick with this original look or choose from two other upscaling filters to smooth out the edges.

One nifty bit of trivia that we learned is that the original 3D backgrounds for Marvel vs. Capcom 2 were created at a higher resolution than the arcades or home consoles could handle at the time. Those assets were saved, which means this new version of the game will have the best looking backgrounds yet seen in Marvel vs. Capcom 2.

Though the visuals have gone through a few tweaks, the gameplay remains identical. Everything you remember about Marvel vs. Capcom 2 (or don't remember) that made it such a classic is just the same. Even though there is now a widescreen option, there isn't any extra room to move thanks to some constraints on how far away the player can move from the opponent. And, of course, if you're a purist you can switch back to the 4:3 aspect ratio for the original look.

If you choose to play in widescreen, you will notice a few visual artifacts caused by the shift in display ratio. A few of the super moves that can be performed involve large objects flying in from the left or right hand side of the screen to attack the opponent. These weren't made long enough to accommodate a widescreen ratio and will protrude too far. The result is a small gap between the end of the asset and the edge of the screen.

when was the last XBLA game that had a demo before the game came out?


This doesnt mean anything actually. Has there been PSN demos released before a game and not part of QOURE? or whatever its called?
