    They do. At least I got the call that I could pick mine up at midnight tonight at my local Gamestop. Guess it depends on where you live and how many pre-orders they received.

      I'm like a lot of you guys. There were so many characters that were either pure garbage or a near duplicate to another player. And what's the deal with Mega Man. It seems like everyone is upset about him not being in the game but I don't know ANYBODY who played with him on a regular basis. In all honesty, I'm glad that he was excluded from this game but that's just my opinion.

          There were some duplicates, but so what? It's not like there is a memory problem where they can only fit "x" number of characters on the game disc or something. And I guarantee you that for every person who considered one of the characters garbage, you can find someone else that liked that character. OK, so you didn't use Megaman or a lot of the other characters from MvC2...so that means they shouldn't be in the game? It can't hurt to have more characters, and if you don't want to use them so be it. But just because there are fewer characters in MvC3, it doesn't necessarily mean that they are of higher quality (although I do hope that's the case). All it means is there are fewer characters.

          In addition, who's to say they couldn't have made the old MvC2 characters better? Why not improve Megaman so more people use him (although I loved him on the old game)? Also, since it basically costs nothing more to have them in, why not have Ken in there? Or what about Bison? Just seems bizarre to me to have so many exclusions. It really seems backward to have a sequel (6+ years in the making) with FEWER characters and options (by a lot....it's not like it's just 4-5 guys less).

          Although flawless' post a page back explained a lot; thanks for the info. Marvel is just weird sometimes...anyway, everyone else doesn't seem bothered by it, so I'll drop it. Let me know how the game is, fellas...if you can pry yourself away from the consoles.

            Just a warning that Jeff prefers fighting games like SF or MK over MvC.

              Like I said, it was simply my opinion. Never said it was a universally accepted fact. I understand what you're saying though man. Some people think they need more characters and some people don't. Whatever floats your boat. Its all good though my man.

                Re: pieatasterp

                The old MvC games were just reused sprites for the most part, so it was easy to dump in characters with no rhyme or reason. With them being polygons and this being on the heels of sf4, they could only spend but so much time creating and balancing the roster. No omissions were arbitrary.


                That having been said, what I'm saying is that regardless of your opinion, the roster is very robust once you get your hands on the game and start training. Personally, I think the marvel roster is great. Nice mix of popular and fringe characters who are all active in comics today. For capcom, I think there are too many joke characters for us to be without Bison, Cammy, more Darkstalkers characters or Rival Schools characters. That dude from Vanquish would have been sick.

                The biggest issue with megaman is that zero and tron bonne are in it. That's like putting in Ken and Chun but not Ryu. Just weird.

                    CWSapp, X's and O's - thanks for the replies, fellas. And X's explanation re: the change from sprites to polys makes sense. All my b*tching aside, the game looks really good and I'll wait to hear your impressions (although who am I kidding? I'm gettin' this game...).

                    LionsFan - I saw that Dark Phoenix video as well, and I'm thinking the Wesker, Phoenix, and Dante trifecta could be deadly...

                      It's occured to me I shouldn't be very excited for this when I can simply set up MUGEN again and that's free. Just a rental then. I'll still do the trade thing and can just exchange it later for something else like I did last time.

                            I was this close to picking this up at 12AM. It was too cold though, had to get home. It doesn't seem like it'll be sold out, here's to hoping I can find a copy tomorrow.

                              There's surely more than one game selling store where you live? Blockbuster (might only be in Canada now),Best Buy,Target,Toys 'r Us,Wal-Mart,K-Mart and if it is sold out order it off of amazon?
