3. Marvel Vs. Capcom Series
System: Dreamcast, PS2, XboxRelease: 2000-2003 The Marvel vs. Capcom franchise is one that has endured for over two decades; and has seen console generations come and go. Despite being released as part of the last gaming generation, Marvel vs. Capcom 2 best embodies the appeal of this franchise. It boasts a sizable cast of 56 playable characters, nice controls, fluid gameplay and tons of fan service. In the minds of many, Marvel vs. Capcom 2 is representative of the fighting game genre. I would agree with this statement. Why? Well you can buy in on the Xbox Marketplace, play it for yourself and you will soon see why this is still beloved by scores of fans. The current-gen Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds while still good cannot compete with its older brother. I would recommend tracking down the second instalment in this stellar series and the going from there.
