I think it's offensive (but entirely characteristic of Capcom) to not give us the full package deal. If you're going to release an "origins" collection, give us a collection:
X-Men: Children of the Atom
Marvel Super Heroes
X-Men vs. Street Fighter
Marvel Super-Heroes vs. Street Fighter
Marvel vs. Capcom

You just know Capcom is going to release the others down the line, so they can bleed our pockets a little bit more.

Completely agree. Xmen Vs. SF is still one of the all time greatest fighting games.

And while Capcom is at it, they can call SNK and re-release SNK Vs. Capcom 1 (pro), 2 (EO) and SVC Chaos.

The objective of a business is to make as much money as possible. I'm sure this isn't the first time you've encountered the concept. Why take it so personally?

While Capcom has been very money-hungry as of late, they actually aren't legally able to re-sell the games with X-Men in the title due to Activision having the rights to the X-Men license. They are able to re-sell Marvel Super Heroes and Marvel vs. Capcom because they aren't directly marketed or labeled as X-Men games.

As for Marvel vs Street Fighter, Capcom came out and said that entry was pretty weak, so they didn't want to take the effort to re-release it, which I agree with them on. It did kinda suck compared to X-Men vs Street Fighter and Marvel vs Capcom.

Anything Capcom makes, I avoid really.

Even the Resident Evil series and their awesome games back in the 90s.Capcom VS is awsome series.


Also you are not a big street fighter fan.shame they got good games.

[Test of Strength]

I really miss Children of The Atom. That's a title I hope they'll release some day.

[RLAAMJR.]

they should have included X-Men vs Street Fighter characters.

I got to play it at Comic-Con. Beat lots of people there. I will get it for both the 360 and ps3.
