No druid/necro makes me sad. I'll be playing a wizard.

Wait, they will have Zero but they will use the classic Megaman!? Will they be using Megaman Zero's Zero then?

...the game is a little less awesome. If it's confirmed, that is. But if they don't confirm Zero, it will be very disappointing...

Anyway, Morrigan is already very transformative. Can't they really fit B.B. Hood?

 thats what I was thinking, she doesn't transform much (if at all)

Does the Sonic Fan Remix have it's own thread yet?

So, apparently the game is already finished? (or nearly so?) WHAT?

You can listen to (and rip if you're any good with audio) all the existing character themes on the Japanese website (needs flash player):

http://www.capcom.co.jp/mvsc3/ch_arthur.html#flashcontent

Arthur's theme is too epic, so is M.O.D.O.K's. Why is a speak-and-spell in Magneto's theme?
Super Skrull's theme is great.
Felica's theme sounds like a remix from one of the darkstalkers games, reminds me of my Roland synthesizer.
Spiderman's theme is remixed from marvel super heroes.

TRAPPED IN A WORLD HE NEVER MADE!

(put him with spiderman on your team)

[How crazy would it have been if they just stuck to using 2d sprites? I don't think you could fit enough character selection icons on the screen!]

Spider-woman isn't from the spider-man universe (OR SO I'VE HEARD), yet they still use the spider-man logo.

They chose not to include any more darkstalkers characters because their animations too up a lot of memory.  Venom?  Shuma?  They're up there with the rest of the darkstalkers cast.

Oh, and heres a disconfirmation list:

Memory? Really? Does it have to store a different mesh for each deformation you think?
Still, that seems really weird when there can only be 6 different characters playing at a time...Those must be some super polygon heavy  models.


No B.B hood is lame, guess I'll have to wait for Super MvC3 or DLC for her. Howard the Duck would TOTALLY make up for her though.

Dr. Strange would have been cool.

If that picture isn't totally fake-sors:
If Howard the duck is in this, you can sign me up on the first day!
Also: no Shuma Gorath?Nevermind, I just made it out on the top... no Blackheart? BOOO!

I hope the new Frank west is more flexible and a wee-bit faster than the TvC version.

I own a bunneh-- he's about as exciting to watch (in it's cage at least) as a fish (without all the cool fish-tank toys.)

Hmm... this guy is supposed to be walking... not dancing.



Any pro-tips guys?

Not a protip but I'd suggest lifting the foot that's moving forward. The one-pixel-up moment should be when the food on the floor is directly under the head. I like it very much though!

A walking sprite I recently made using the above tutorial:

I'm still going to purchase this game on Day 1   

Secret levels are going to result in my suicide curling up into a ball and weeping in the corner, you heard it here first.

STUPID. XBOX. CONTROLLER. AAAHHHHHH!!!!!


What's with the glitch levels not rewarding you anything other than extreme satisfaction upon completion? They are at least worth a few band-aids, geeze!

If I had some money to work with, I'd hire you  

an engine for my first flash game. it's about a boy who enters a world full of ugly people.
http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/93854b2f08349b8b9a5b0ade0cad1cf6

Cool, I like the boy, but that background is going to force me to take an excedrin if I stare at it too long.

I hate flash, I'd rather just program in C++ from scratch.

(Can I has that on a t-shirt?)

Seriously, Actionscript syntax and niggles can go die in a fire.
No native 2D arrays? WTF? (you have to just nest arrays inside each other...)
Debugging is a living nightmare.
Can I get some enumerations? Pleeease?
Coding in Java for games is less painful.

I dreamt(?) Trey the Toucan and Gomez teamed up to kill a giant pixelated boss together, awesome, right?

[THE BUG]

I think you're being a bit harsh on the worst $ ever spent category. I've never played those and I'm sure they're bad, but surely you've spent money on something more worthless?

For me it was a 70$ late fee for being 5 minutes late paying rent

Maybe, but I wanted to keep it videogame related. There have been things I've bought well over $10 that went to instant waste the minute I got my hands on them or just weren't worth the money. Probably the most useless and expensive thing I've received as a gift was a $200 electric shaver I never used. I like to just use regular and cheap disposable razors.

Back-on-topic-time:
I can't play this game for more than maybe an hour, I get too impatient and frustrated (in a good way)

I had a major bummer last night where I got a bunch of Dark World band-aids and it ended up not saving my progress due to what I guess people would call, "THE BUG." UGH. They were all piss-hard to get too, holy balls. I'm glad they're patching it up soon.

I can't complete some of the warp zones, it's just too damn hard! AJJHHHHJJJhhhhh!

Best $10 spent ever: Super Meat boy
Best $13 spent ever: Minecraft
Worst $ spent ever: Pool of Radiance remake, Locomotion, SimCopter

I'm trying to build a library of the game's music before the offical soundtrack even comes out, it's that good.

I want a 2-5 inch vinyl meat boy figurine, start making some! Can we get a Dr. fetus posable toy in a real case?

I hate flash, I'd rather just program in C++ from scratch.

This game is Super, it is actually what it says it is on the tin, unlike let's say...Sonic 4?   Cool game, bro!

I tried the demo, I honestly think it's pretty much "trash." Everything screams CHEAP. NOTHING feels right here.

talking toucans, coming up next
