Marvel vs Capcom 3 Gameplay Footage from E3 2010

By

Based on the MT Framework engine, Marvel vs Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds “uses a simplified, three-button control scheme of undefined low, medium, and high attacks modeled after Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars, which Capcom believes will ‘knock down the wall of complicated controls and open up the field of strategic fighting to all comers'”. Videos after the break. Click here for first picture in gallery.

Is it fun? Yes. Hardcore fighting fans will probably stick with Street Fighter IV, and might even scoff at this one a little bit as being a little too forgiving and easy. But Marvel vs. Capcom is about pitting superheroes and fighters against each other in a spectacle of combos and flashy moves, and the new iteration does that impressively well so far.
