The best Verses Fighting Game ever made by Capcom and the 2nd installment of the "Marvel Vs Capcom " Series. This game has 56 characters and is very popular in Fighting Game Tournaments. It is also a very strategic, deep, skillful game.

The fourth installment in Capcom's "Versus" series.
a revamped version of the old-skool street-fighter style games on speed (and probably acid too).
Easy to play, difficult to master.
Although unbalanced character power-wise and looked down on due to it being a 2D fighting game (with sprite quality and animation largely unchanged throughout the series) this game offers an extreme amount of longevity to those who appreciate the game for what it is.

Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds (MvC3)
After ten long years of waiting, Capcom gives this sequel, available on PS3 and Xbox 360. Semi-popular because it has many new characters but so many popular characters from its predecessors cut out.
New 3-D graphics with classic 3-on-3 fighting system like MvC2, with inky shading and cross-hatching effects to look like a living comic book. Also uses a TvC-Style control scheme with a button for light, one for medium, and one for heavy attacks along with one universal launcher button. You can tap the assist button to call for the assigned character (Partner 1 or P1 and Partner 2 or P2 respectively) and hold down either button to switch out. A new feature added is X-Factor, which really comes in handy, restores your health with additional attack and speed boost. The final boss on this one is Galactus who plans on devouring the two worlds of Marvel and Capcom for nourishment. You'll fight two boss villains picked at random first, then you fight Galactus, and he takes up the whole right side of the screen.
Otherwise, this game is great, and if you're waiting for more DLC characters, have faith, and take every MvC3-related announcement with a grain of salt.

Guy 1: Duuuuude. I just picked up Marvel vs. Capcom 3 today. It's totally awesome with new graphics and stuff. Wanna come over and play?
Guy 2: Yeah, man I'll be there soon!
Guy 1: Are you ready....to continue the saga?
Guy 2: Oh yeah, I'm pumped!
Guy 2: (A veteran MvC player looks at character roster with all named 38 characters in it) Man, where's Venom? and Strider Hiryu? and........NO MEGA MAN!? Come on! What a ripoff! OH YEAH, let Magneto, Storm, and Sentinel back in, but.........OMG! There's AMATERASU! and VIEWTIFUL JOE! and DEADPOOL! YESSSS! THAT'S A WIN! WOW! EVEN ZERO AND DANTE ARE HERE!
Guy 1: Glad to see you like the new set of characters. Don't worry the characters you named might get released as DLC.
Guy 2: Yeah, like that'll happen anytime soon. Well, I don't really care anymore, let's just play.
Guy 1: (Down to last character, activates X-Factor which is at this point level 3 and wins the match) I knew I'd win with that.
Guy 2: This feature was TOTALLY needed on MvC2 especially with all the balance issues it had. You had to be really good to do that back then.
Guy 1: Yeah, no foolin'.

When a game shows minor details or occurrences in a cutscene. Named after video game giant Capcom, whose games often did this (i.e. Dead Rising series, showing the zombies become more aggressive at night for the first time, and later Resident Evil games, such as showing a broken ladder in a cutscene in RE5)
Guy 1: Dude, it was just a normal enemy that I've killed thousands of times already! Was it necessary to show him in a cutscene that I can't even skip!?
Guy 2: That's bullshit man! This game has Capcom syndrome!

Capsule Communicator, a hold over from the days of the Mercury Program of the US Space Program. The German scientists designing the Mercury Capsule always referred to The Capsule, while the Mercury Seven astronauts always called it a Spacecraft. In the Mission Control room, however, the Germans held sway, and all communications went through the astronaut on the ground who was the only radio contact with the astronaut in the spacecraft. The title of the ground astronaut on the console with the "Push to Talk" button was the "Capsule Communicator", abbreviated to "CapCom".
"Space Station, this is Mission Control. On panel Alpha Four, I need a Switch Throw of switch Two Three to the ON position." "Roger, Capcom. That's in work."
