I was never a big fan of Marvel vs Capcom 1 and 2 so I don’t know why I thought I would enjoy the third installment. Less than three weeks out and I’m already back to playing Super Street Fighter 4. I’ve got a friend who is a die hard fan of MvsC3 and he keeps telling me that I “just need to get into it”. He even had me watch tournament play videos to get me more excited about the game but instead it made me want to play even less. I honestly can’t really pinpoint why I dislike it. The game has a great cast, nice graphics and is visually insane. But at the end of the day I would rather boot up Street Fighter than MvsC3. I know people are going to disagree with me and say that MvsC3 is way better than Street Fighter and that’s fine. Maybe it is, but all I can say is now that the hype has died down so has my desire to play it.

My only real problem with the game is X-Factor. I don’t think it adds anything and I think it ruins the flow of matches.
I still say that I think your approach to the game is the reason you don’t like it. You can’t play that game like you play Dhalsim and have any fun with it. It’s fast, it’s flashy, it’s combo-oriented, and you have to make things happen.
I can’t help it if i more of a tactician and like to use my brain. Plus I also use Sakura who is the complete opposite of Dhalshim.
Yeah she is, but you still play her like she’s Dhalsim lol.
It’s called being a defensive player. When I pick characters with lower health and power against guys like Ryu, Chun-Li and Guile it doesn’t pay to just rush in.
btw this is from EventHubs on how to play Sakura :
” most players will know her tricks. Play her patiently, punish, and you’ll get the win.” Sounds like I’m doing it right. Lol and I love how this conversation went from MvsC3 to SSF4.
