This was one of those weird PS2 era games that had no business being as good as it was. Kind of like the Def Jam games.

The ONLY thing alpha 3 was missing is a dash. Then it would have been PERFECT.
>>
>>
>>343066082
It wasn't that mw2 was perfect, it's that every game afterwards was not as good.

How was titanfall?
Between infinite war, bf1, and titanfall 2, I'm leaning towards titanfall 2.

and marvel vs capcom was always a bit too much for me but xmen vs street fighter was spot on.

Weapons were meh.
Mw2 had more perks, more rewards, better gun, less nade spam.

The only thing I miss from cod 4 is huge players and custom maps. I feel mw2 single handedly killed mod tools in exchange for paid dlc.

2k4 split the player base, and with ut4, epic admitted double jumping and dodge jumping was a mistake that made the levels huge and the players feel like toy soldiers. Ut4 is far more acrobatic without the double jumping, and I instead has infinite wall dodging and wall running.

So far, they're not including vehicles either.
-Remember the halo looking vehicle that pissed off all the it fans, and attracted more casual halo babies?


TL;DR
Epic is making UT 4 more UT99 like.

UMvC3 is better.

I even enjoy MvC1 more because of the nostalgia factor.

At least it's better than vanilla MvC3. Still salty about how much of a beta it felt like.

>I hate people who pick based off tiers

Same here, but because of the roster bloat causing garbage balance and the "hardcore" autist crowd, it's hard to find anyone who feels that way online/at a local scene.

MvC1 isn't exactly not broken either, but at least people aren't as obnoxious about tiers. UMvC3's balanced enough where you won't get curbstomped by tier worshippers, at least.

Aside from that I did like mw2 over cod4. Cod4 is pure nostalgia at this point whereas mw2 was actually fun.
>>
>>343066321
From what everyone else has said, it had good ideas and was fun for a few hours but got quickly repetitive due to the lack of content. Thankfully, Titanfall 2 seems to be packing in much more content than its predecessor besides adding a single player campaign.

>>343067115
Fuck right off, the web-slinging in 2 was fucking SHIT. Or it was on GameCube anyway.

I liked Ultimate more just for giving you more control over the swinging (and VENOM) despite everything else being barebones. It's not like the city was all that good in SM2 anyway.
>>
>>343073674
Have you seriously not heard about the literal universal praise the swinging has gotten from everyone?
If you are trying to talk about something don't talk about irrelevant editions like fucking nintoddler versions.
>>
>>343073674
Ultimate simply had made it so the web didn't actually need to stick anywhere, in 2 you actually had to have a building or post to stick your web to so you could swing, in Ultimate they just stick to an invisible sky ceiling.

Ultimate's web swinging is dumbed down shit for casuals like yourself

YES.
You only get 1 Semtex, and smoke grenades don't kill you.
Semtex and frag grenades can be exchanged for throwing knife, blast shield, claymore, or create, ALL OF WHICH ARE A LOT LESS SPAMMY.

And martyrdom drops a single grenade. You can be far enough that it is not a threat, or close enough to run away.
-Or the death streak could be copycat, final stand, or painkiller.

In cod4, EVERYONE SPAWNED WITH 2 FRAG NADES.

you mean san andreas or vice city?
>>
>>343075042
Alright, now this is bothering me and I can't find an answer.

Did Spider-Man 2 on PS2 have dual trigger web-slinging? Cause that's the biggest reason I put Ultimate ahead of it. SM2 on GameCube had one trigger swinging and felt much more restricted.
>>
>>343070515
I don't get how anyone could say this.
GTA IV was basically a simulator game and deathly boring.
Vice City will forever be the best GTA in terms of story, atmosphere and presentation.
>>
>>343077050
No, it won't, because San Andreas has it beat in all three areas.
San Andreas also had a better soundtrack.

In retrospect I love both games. As long as it's not 2k3 or god forbid Unreal 3______ I'm cool with it.

Although knowing how good their downscaling is I'm not hopeful. Lord knows if I couldn't run Overwatch my comp won't be able to handle this either.

I only played the first one but it was great. Then again I got infinite amusement out of fucking around in the tutorial by making enemies spawn, jumping off the side of the building and sticking on the wall until they forgot about me, then crawling around so I was behind them and sneak attacking them. Lather, rinse, repeat.

I was a simple child.
