Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite - PlayStation 4

Great came. Fight combos are great. Story mode is very interesting.

this game is great to have friends over for competition.

Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite is the latest fighting game in a long-running series from Capcom. Featuring a roster of fighters from the popular video game developer and the celebrated comic publisher, MvC:I seeks to reclaim the glory of past iterations. Unfortunately, the resulting product falls a bit short of its lofty aspirations. I purchased Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite to play with my nephew, who loved the limited demo that Capcom made available over the summer. He loves the game and its mash-up of characters like Spider-man, Hulk, Thor, Mega Man, Ryu, and Dante. The game ships with a base roster of 30 characters, but there are several notable omissions from both sides (Capcom and Marvel). There are already six additional characters confirmed as paid downloadable content, with more rumored to be on the way. The roster is decent, but I really miss many characters that appeared in previous games, such as Captain Commando, Jin Saotome, Akuma, Doctor Doom, Wolverine, and Deadpool. The game's presentation leaves a bit to be desired. The graphics aren't awful, but they aren't as good as other fighters on the market (Injustice 2). Some of the characters are incredibly bland compared to others on the very same roster. The DLC characters look great from what I've seen, but you have to pay extra to use those (they are free to those who purchase the Deluxe Edition). Where the game really shines is in its gameplay. Capcom has crafted another great fighting game and really refined the system to make the two-on-two gameplay feel deep, but also accessible. The addition of the Infinity Stones/Gems is notable, as it adds a great mechanic to the game while replacing a third or assist character. I've seen many a match turn on the proper use of the Infinity Stones. The only negative to the gameplay is that I would have liked to have seen the addition of a mode allowing two players to fight on the same team against the computer. This was present back in 1999 with Marvel vs Capcom on the Sega Dreamcast! Overall, Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite is a decent game. It could have been so much more. I would recommend caution when buying this game, especially in its current state. Maybe we'll see an "ultimate" edition down the road.

I loved Marvel vs Capcom 3 on PS3. My family and friends would have a great time pulling off moves and the sound and animation was suberb. I just think this version should have been more of a leap forward. It seems just like a small step, even though the story is long and involved! Not sure I even like the story that much, and the last boss is incredibly difficult, compared to all the other fights. Overall, I do think it's a good game and don't regret buying it at all, just was hoping for a better story. Graphics are nice and gameplay is spot on and responsive. Like the multiplayer aspects also.

When it comes to the most important aspect of the a video game, game play, its actually a pretty fun. It easy to pick up and satisfying enough to play for a few months at least. Unfortunately, the roster is definitely disappointing. There are 0 X-Men or Fantastic Four characters and many of the coolest characters are buried behind a DLC pay wall(black widow, venom, monster hunter) that will be sprinkled in the next couple of months. The story mode is a waste of time also. You'll get the most fun out of the game if you are willing to put in time on learning combos and strategies in training mode and applying them in online battles. I recommend waiting for a price drop though.

This game's graphics should have stayed the same as part 3, a more comic book feel. However it seems like Marvel wanted the game to be more cinematic and similar to the DC brand of fighting games. Why not be unique and stay true to the series? Really a big mistake there. Let's talk about gameplay. It is still pretty good but slowed down due to the more detail in graphics than before. More detail doesn't equal better though. The music is also more cinematic this time for the worse. Also there are only English voice overs and no Japanese voices for the Japanese characters. Graphically it is decent but they are actually the worst graphics ever put in a Capcom fighter since Final Fight game was released on Sega Saturn. Its just Capcom usually puts up great graphics and a high standard so this is their worst output. The roster also doesn't match up to the past games in the series. This game was dumped to the bargain bin in a couple of months which is a great shame given the history of this series. Also they really went overboard with dlc and paying for extras. Too bad gaming companies are focused on that route rather than making classic games anymore. Because this series has plenty of classics that started on Sega Saturn and Dreamcast.

I've been playing the franchise since it first came out as X-men vs. Street Fighter 20+ years ago. Same great game play with graphics and effects similar to MvC 3. My only gripe (-1 star) is that there are no longer any X-Men characters in the game! I guess it makes sense since it revolves around the use of Infinity Stones, so you see a lot of Avenger/GotG characters in the game. Definitely would recommend to any long time MvC player. Dust off your arcade sticks and get practicing!

I find this game a bit more friendly to newcomers, but also deep for long time fans of the series. The art style is...weird as it tries to go the realistic route. That's likely due to this following the Marvel Cinematic Universe characters, which means there are no X-Men or Deadpool - very strange for there to be no Wolverine. Overall, try the demo, or potentially consider waiting for the Ultimate version with more DLC characters, or buy it if you're a fan of the series.
