Yeah, MvC2 is awesome and superior overall, but I prefer the aesthetic experience of playing MvC1. The art compromises made to MvC2 makes it feel unfinished in many ways, whereas MvC1 is really a celebration of that legendary Capcom sprite talent cultivated through the 90s.
@CF565 The one thing I've noticed is that because they used 3D polygon backgrounds in MvC2, the sprites are easier to make out, and gameplay's easier to follow. Some of the backgrounds in MvC get a little busy, and it can get hard to stay focused on the action.
MvC2 is my main reason for buying it but MvC 1 and Xmen Vs Street Fighter I played a lot at arcades so I'd probably play them from time to time. Others I never got to play but would be nice to experience
The online matches have been surprisingly fun and close battles. I was worried that every online battle was going to be spammy unlimited combo type. Of course I still run into them once in a while, but it's not often.
So can someone give me a brief summary of Strider? He’s a ninja from the past, who’s adapted to his surroundings, that can now use future technology? I know Max has stated that’s his favorite FG character but just want a quick synopsis on the red scarfed dude lol.
I still remember how to play as Roll in the arcades. Random info I've retained for like 25 years. I wear a hoodie of this game every single day, and have been for over 10 years, easily the fighting game with the most impact on me. So glad to see it with a new lease on life
Im not a huge fighting game person but when i was a teenager i used to be on the arcades watching people play, and those sound effects brought back so many memories for me
I think one of the most overlooked thing about this release is that we have our hands on a way to enjoy the OSTs of these games on modern hardware. It's such a God damn good release.
its crazy to me CVS1 and MVC1 both are the superior games in terms of presentation but then the 2nd games just absolutely COOK in terms of gameplay that the original games get overlooked
I never played MvC1 before, but the background stages being not just generic terrains and the characters having their own themes makes it feel like a bigger passion project.
Is incredible we can play all this games online and with rollback now in a mainstream way, for me this collection is all about MvC1, that's the one for me, but its awesome to have the other ones. I just wonder how long the game will be active, im a bit worried because not crossplay, i wonder whats the best platform to buy it? Max said trophies, is he playing on PS5?
My high-school had a cabinet of mvc1 in the student lounge. I remember listening to numb from Linkin park, a few years before minutes to midnight came out and playing against a guy who mained strider and venom. This game is nostalgia straight to my veins
This was the game that introduced Strider Hiryuu to me and made me a fan (played the old Strider games because of this) and discovered the term Aerial Rave❤
The special bg changes whenever supers are active or etc is my favorite thing about this game. Everything is amazing but the experience is what makes different
I used to go to a specific arcade place (in a mall) where MvC1 was quite literally the show stealer of the whole place (at least when it came to fighting games). There were queues to play it, it was one of the few select fighting games cabinet for which I saw people queuing in line to get their rounds in. I saw that too with MK2 when it was new, along with Killer Instinct and Alpha 2. But MvC1 made people happy, never saw anyone being frustrated playing it, people in line were smiling at the apprehension of them playing it in just a moment. It was quite special. Then again, nothing will really ever beat the real 'in person' actual "Arcade Experience" of the 90s, ever. Also, I love MvC1's pixel art, amazing to look at.
I’ve been having a fucking blast with this collection, me and my cousin have been playing Marvel 2 for hours, I even got my lil brother on it and he’s really into it.
Same me and my cousin have been online the whole weekend playing it. It just brings back so many good memories of playing it in the arcades. It's still a blast till this day
@@DarkOverlord96Because it is, YES the artstyle of MVC1 is far superior, but in the end this is a Video Game, not art gallery, we came to play, MVC2 it's the better Game
I’m sad I can’t play this collection until November cause I only buy physical. But when I do I hope to have a lot of fun. What are some characters from any of these games that are good for beginners?
Unfortunately, you may as well get it digital cause it'll be a box with a download code :( Edit: disregard my last statement unless you're from Europe. Sorry about that.
I still remember going to GameStop and getting Marvel vs Capcom on PS1 years ago being disappointed that there's no tag + partner choosing and how vastly different it was compared to the arcade.
This is my favourite MvC as well. You didn't see the exact same team all the time. Sure, Wolverine and Strider were the strongest, but the rest of the characters were always picked as well.
The PS1 version was quite different from the arcade one from what I recall when I had it. Biggest thing other than the tag system is the complete lack of comboing supers and specials into supers, the lack of infinite assists, and the fact that meter building was lightning fast on there. It’s an adjustment, but it’s doable. Granted it was probably easier for me back then since I had access to both pretty equally.
PS1 version was slow clunky and was a cut up version, this is the arcade version the ai was far better and harder even on the lower difficulty as you progress Just practice and play more you'll get better
From a spectator perspective, i find MvC1 a hell of a lot easier to keep track of what is actually happening beyond "Random Bullshit GO". Funny thing is, MvC Infinite and Beyond is kinda similar compared to MvC 3 in that respect.
Ok hearing you say it's a tight game and needing to hit the two attack buttons for super being strict makes me feel better. My stick skills have never been above average and was playing this earlier today and was like wtf am I struggling for supers constantly
Ngl my hype died down a little when I realized people will only use maybe 5 characters and 2 assists What's the point of even having a giant roster Most likely the reason why MVC3 has like 10 characters lol
I'm sorry if anyone brought this up but the website has the secret characters on the roster pages. Is there an option to have them unlocked? If so how do you select them? I guess they're off to the sides?
Berserker Barrage X goes hard for a super name though
And Fatal Claw as well.
...my head went "Me in bed when you come over"
capcom was cooking with this one.
Especially with the announcer's call-out:
*X*
Its one of the coolest attacks in fighting games even to this day imo
Max: I won't go ham and pick Wolverine.
*Loses once*
*Immediately picks Wolverine*
I laughed a little to hard when he did that 😂
relatable
God the art in this game is straight up beautiful 👌
Bengus is THE goat!
Yeah, MvC2 is awesome and superior overall, but I prefer the aesthetic experience of playing MvC1. The art compromises made to MvC2 makes it feel unfinished in many ways, whereas MvC1 is really a celebration of that legendary Capcom sprite talent cultivated through the 90s.
I love the character selection screen from MvC1. The character names uses their signature font.

THE MVC1 MUSIC IS SO GOOD. We need a new MvC but with this same chaotic and crisp feeling
AND WE NEED CAPTAIN COMMANDO
Captain SWORDDDDDDDDDD!!!
Music is one area where 2 is so much worse than 1.
Goddamn that soundtrack!! Nostalgic.
LET'S GO, BUB!!!
*SNIKT*
Gotta say I'm surprised people are actually playing the other games. I figured everybody was just getting this for Marvel 2 🤣
I’m goin all in with children of the atom. I’ll get to the other ones eventually but 1v1 is more my style.
X-men vs Street Fighter and Marvel 1 for me
MvC2 is the lowest on the totem pole for me. The other games are where I will spend the most time
MvC2 is my main reason for buying it but MvC 1 and Xmen Vs Street Fighter I played a lot at arcades so I'd probably play them from time to time. Others I never got to play but would be nice to experience
I'll be on Marvel Super Heroes, MvC1 & 2 when I get this. mush has a special place in my heart
MvC1 honestly might be my favorite VS. series game, more than MvC2. Love the OST and just is more fun and exciting to play to me
Also the stage changing right on the izuna drop was really cool
I want to try this game but I probably don’t have the execution to keep up with the absolute insanity on screen at all times
It feels better when you're the one actually playing.
The online matches have been surprisingly fun and close battles. I was worried that every online battle was going to be spammy unlimited combo type. Of course I still run into them once in a while, but it's not often.
That’s a hell of Strider-on-Strider violence
So can someone give me a brief summary of Strider? He’s a ninja from the past, who’s adapted to his surroundings, that can now use future technology? I know Max has stated that’s his favorite FG character but just want a quick synopsis on the red scarfed dude lol.
Its like a dystopian future
He's from the year 2048, a member of the Strider set of ninjas, implied to have been founded by Street Fighter 5's Zeku.
@@SmashBrosOdyssey64 ahhh okay I gotcha. Very cool. And thanks for responding.
In MvC3 the Super Skrull states that Strider Hiryu is the pinnacle of human perfection
Also Strider is from the same universe as street fighter and final fight (but from the future), and if I'm not mistaken Captain Commando is too.
Are we getting a rate the super for all of the games?
Omg yessssss
I literally thought Gambit said Credit Card when I was younger! Lol!!
I still remember how to play as Roll in the arcades. Random info I've retained for like 25 years. I wear a hoodie of this game every single day, and have been for over 10 years, easily the fighting game with the most impact on me. So glad to see it with a new lease on life
Last time I played this one specifically was with that Origins collection release.
Is funny to think that Striter is more famous due MVC than is on game
I finally was able to pick this up and I'm so in love with playing these games again🙋♂️ When it asked me how old I am I was proud to say 43 😂
Watching Max play wha t he waiting for years..makes me happy😢
What are the changes they made to the stages?
"I won't go ham and pick Wolverine." then later for the Rest Goes Ham af.
The button tightness is exactly why I bind 3xP and 3xK on triggers and tag on R3.
Yes I play on pad lmao
Anderson Anderson
Venom/Commando is my MvC1 team! :D (I just added Cable in MvC2 lol)
1 art direction is way better than 2.
Yo. This is awesome. Anybody else a Captain Suckass main
Marvel 1 is better than Marvel 2 and I will die on this hill
Lets Rock!
I was wondering why they didn't use MVC2 from PS3 on this pack..
NOOB HERE. How the effffff do you swap characters mid-match for healing??? I can't figure it out for the life of me (literally).
If I may ask, what's wrong with the Dreamcast version of MVC1?
Whats up with the rank matches , i finished the game 3 times waiting for a match and i didnt get it.
Yeah steam version's having some issues with online.
What controllers are you using 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
I MVC 1 better because you can use 6 buttons and you have control over your combos lol ha ha😊😊😊😊😁🥰🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️🌈🌈😍🧸🧸🧸🌈❤️❤️
They should have used dreamcast version with the four player mode....wait wtf, why doesn't Max lile the DC version tho😮
Its still random for a assist?
It's random if you don't put in the code for a specific assist. Each assist have their own code.
I recommend looking up the assist codes before playing online, nothing worse than getting weak assists
@KMmouse20 I thought they change it that's odd, is the psylocke assist good?
@@rawrdino7046 Psylocke/Colossus are your basic assist that work in every situation. Multi hitting full screen assist.
@@rawrdino7046 I believe top 3 is Psylocke Colossus Sentinel, but iffy on the last one
🏅🏀🍀🏒🏏😭
First
No it's not.
It still hasn't sunk in that these games are free🥲
Im not a huge fighting game person but when i was a teenager i used to be on the arcades watching people play, and those sound effects brought back so many memories for me
I think one of the most overlooked thing about this release is that we have our hands on a way to enjoy the OSTs of these games on modern hardware.
It's such a God damn good release.
And we needed, the ost on RUclips is 15 years old, we were lacking a good version of the soundtrack really bad.
(Aside from the fact that some of the physical copies don’t give a disc but instead a code)
I was jamming to Gambits theme for sure.
@@briansilva3765Didn't the OST have a CD release though?
Whoever removed Morrigan's Soul Eraser HC in future titles shall never be forgiven..
its crazy to me CVS1 and MVC1 both are the superior games in terms of presentation but then the 2nd games just absolutely COOK in terms of gameplay that the original games get overlooked
Same thing with CvS 1and 2, Second Impact and Thrid Strike, etc...
I dunno nothing about history and stuff about games but there’s something comforting about watching classic fighting games
Cuz’ no one beats the classics.
Part of what makes classics special is that they are the first to do something that revolutionizes a genre.
I never played MvC1 before, but the background stages being not just generic terrains and the characters having their own themes makes it feel like a bigger passion project.
Yes and that is why 1 is better than 2 in term of art direction. 2 may have 3D stages but the stages lack anything MVC, same as music.
I prefer mvc over mvc2.. fight me haha
Same, MvC2 is too chaotic for me.
MvC doesn't have cable, storm, or cyclops, though.
Anyone remembers the marvel vs Capcom he did legacy a long time ago?
With evil Captain Commando?
God, I forgot how fun it is to play Strider.
Is incredible we can play all this games online and with rollback now in a mainstream way, for me this collection is all about MvC1, that's the one for me, but its awesome to have the other ones.
I just wonder how long the game will be active, im a bit worried because not crossplay, i wonder whats the best platform to buy it? Max said trophies, is he playing on PS5?
He did get ps5, he also has PC as he played jmcrofts on that version
For me it's xmen vs sf and MVC1
Do I sense some tournament parties forming? Imagine the content!
I definitely prefer this to MVC2. Both are incredible. The roster just went too far and the backgrounds are pretty boring in 2.
We got mvc collection before gta 6
That is actually kinda shocking, considering GTA 6 was announced and this showed up on a random Nintendo Direct.
My high-school had a cabinet of mvc1 in the student lounge. I remember listening to numb from Linkin park, a few years before minutes to midnight came out and playing against a guy who mained strider and venom. This game is nostalgia straight to my veins
This was the game that introduced Strider Hiryuu to me and made me a fan (played the old Strider games because of this) and discovered the term Aerial Rave❤
"You must defeat my Aerial Rave to stand a chance" - Ryu, X-Men vs Street Fighter
After playing all of them I really think this one and marvel super hero’s are my favorite, I LOVE the backgrounds and music of mvc1 it’s INCREDIBLE.
MvC1's presentation is top notch, and Marvel Super Heroes has beautiful animation. Capcom was on fire!
I wish theyd go back to this sprite artstyle, so iconic.
I feel mvc1 kinda balanced. Thats why i like it
It is definitely not haha but the top tiers are pretty cool so it’s all good
@@waves9515I think when it's casual vs casual it doesn't feel has unbalanced unlike MvC2
Lol no
Brings back memories. I used to do Chun Li and Gambit Infinite combos. I haven't touched a joystick for a long time. Nice video! 👍

Its always Strider x Wolverine for those sweaty dudes in the Arcade 😂
Yup🤣
Mvc2 is objectively a better game but mvc1 just feels like the perfect game.
Exactly!!!
no it's not, lol
Imagine calling a MUGEN asset dump "objectively better" than a game with an actual artstyle.
@@DarkOverlord96Go look at Capcom Fighting Jam before you start calling other games "MUGEN Asset Dumps".

1: hope you got on PlayStation because switch is only a code. 2: think about us poor souls on Xbox.
Just get digital your not getting physical. It's a code in a box
I just learned about the code in a box thing. It's okay with me. As long as I get the game, I don't mind if it's just a code.
@@Brettskeionly in Europe.
I agree! it is actually my favorite Vs game
I still remember going to GameStop and getting Marvel vs Capcom on PS1 years ago being disappointed that there's no tag + partner choosing and how vastly different it was compared to the arcade.
That shit pissed me off too! Like why would that be a feature you’d get rid of?!
"Credit Card" "Credit card"
This is my favourite MvC as well. You didn't see the exact same team all the time. Sure, Wolverine and Strider were the strongest, but the rest of the characters were always picked as well.
The only youtuber that got me into marvel it’s so nostalgic
MvC1 is top tier privelege in full effect. Watching the gap between Kiryu's damage output and the Morrigan/Ryu team was a little sad😅
"Marvel 1 is the BEST!"
FINALLY SOMEONE SAID IT!!!!!
Can you please make a guide for this game. I used to play on PS1 and win but now I can’t even get beat arcade mode without a continue
Pfff noob

Everyone on here coz they saw J.Wong BeeZeasting everyone on mvc2 😂
MVC1 is so nostalgic 😊😊😊
Ngl my hype died down a little when I realized people will only use maybe 5 characters and 2 assists
What's the point of even having a giant roster
Most likely the reason why MVC3 has like 10 characters lol
The online warrior is back
Credit card credit card credit card
Shameless plug hey fgc imagine a game like urban reign with a tekken 8 character models and online 4 players
Already cooking baby🔥🔥
Damn I've never paid that much attention to marvel 1 so I never realised the beauty of all the sprite work
What fighting stick does max use? I need one lol
I know MvsC2 is awesome, but I always love how this game matches are more variated than the same Top Tier chars (and more cohesive in art and music
The music is legendary in these games!!
Just here to say CAN YOU DO A REVIEW OF BYTE BREAKERS PLAYTEST PLS
I've found myself partial to X-Men vs Street Fighter, but this entire collection is absolutely a bang for your buck.
Seeing Max play Marvel vs Capcom games always feels so nostalgic to watch
I'm sorry if anyone brought this up but the website has the secret characters on the roster pages. Is there an option to have them unlocked? If so how do you select them? I guess they're off to the sides?
Depends on the game but yes, the MvC secret characters are off screen at the top, right and bottom.
MVC2 is my favorite one, never played X-Men Children of the Atom or the Punisher.
This game seems way less "get pummeled in the corner" than his little brother
"Is this a Melee situation?" Someone is not following Melee. Like 14 characters can make top 8 in a cast of 26
X-Men vs street fighter 2 needs to happen
Credit card credit card credit card! 😂
I low-key like this game more than MvC 2
Man, my kingdom for a Marvel 2 with this art style.
