Great retrospective dear Char...xmen vs. sf actually had a sliver of story/ plot....u can find it in the back section of the card blister of the xmen vs. sf toyline by toy biz...its basically Apocalypse summoning the street fighters from another dimension to do his bidding but all goes wrong for him! 😅😂
@@rebelpunk13 Glad someone liked that gag. But like think about it, if Hydroman tricked you into drinking him and he's inside you, you're done. This is the kind of shit I think about lol. Also I chose that artwork because it was used in the Marvel/DC VS. System card game which I played back in the day.
This was great and I’m glad you pointed out how integral the first marvel games were for Marvel 2. One other thing that many people don’t know about this time period is that after Marvel’s license expired DC approached Capcom in the 2000’s & pitched them an idea for a DC fighting game, but capcom declined bc they weren’t interested in making fighting games at the time. Sad but it does make you wonder what would’ve happened if Capcom said yes.
@@studi0651 Interesting, I've never heard of that happening. Timeline lines up though, that would have been around when Capcom Fighting Jam was released. And I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thank you.
MVC2 was the first game in the series I played, and I kind of just assumed that there was only one game before it. Its cool to see how much history the series actually has, and I'm excited to give them all a try. Thanks for the informative video!
@@seancastle3769 Unfortunately the PS1 ports of these games were pretty bad. I had X-Men vs SF and it felt unpayable due to the frame rate. If that's the only way you've played them I think you'll be pleasantly surprised when you revisit them through the collection.
To be honest the only time comic books in the 90's ever had a boom in popularity was in the early 90's. After that comic book stores weren't selling anything past the mid-90's. It's one of the many reasons why Marvel sold all their movie rights to multiple movie studios.
Yeah that's one thing about MvC2 that has never sat right with me. I feel like the music and stages are really generic. Feels like none of it is based on either Capcom or Marvel.

The picture of Hydroman with all the iconic 90s CB covers😂

Good stuff brother!
@@TRIPLECORONAS Thank you, I appreciate it.
Cant wait to get and replay these games again. I had most of them on playstation but the games got lost over the years.

I'd probably end up playing the older titles. The aesthetics of MVC2 (and 3) never really appealed to me.
