Thank God (the true) Marvel vs Capcom 3 is approaching (and back)

It's been a long time ago since I played one my favorite arcade games entitled Marvel vs Capcom which is first of its kind because it has a whopping 56 characters to choose from and the arcade stage itself is on 3D. As the years passed by, gamers like me are waiting for the next possible installment. It may be delayed for some years because of some issues and reasons until I got a news that somewhere in May that Capcom, the game developer behind this great fighting game series will unleash something. As I about to publish this blog post, I got a news from my fellow MvC2 gamers that there's a new Marvel vs Capcom 3 teaser video (yes, this is not a April Fools Joke) as I already posted the youtube video on my blog. This is something to celebrate

My recent Marvel vs Capcom 2 experience: (Semi) bloody yet with enjoyment

Last weekend, I am absent for 3 weeks for playing my one of my favorite arcade games. That time, I already felt the boredom and the misery to be in the arcade machine once again so I rushed to my one of my favorite arcade places. It was bad at first as I played at the 1st player. The arcade stick was not in perfect shape. As I really felt the disappointment, I played at the 2nd player after I finished the game. Finally, I got what I really wanted even from the single small detail. As I finished stage 3, I noticed something. Oh, my pointer and my middle fingertips in my right hand are starting to bleed. Yah, that really gave a statement that I had some "gigil" factor to play the game. As I finished every stage, my towel was ready to somehow stop the bleeding (don't worry, it's not that strong when it flowed, I remembered one of the scenes from Box Car Racer's music video "I Feel So", yeah his fingers bleed maybe bcoz of too much string stratching!) As I finished the game, I ran straight to the nearest comfort room to wash and clean my hands.

Few days later, I played the same game and oh, I still felt the pain of too much pushing of the buttons. (looks like it bruised inside) As I typing this blog, all my fingers we're all a-ok!

My first Marvel vs Capcom 2 (MvC2) gaming experience at Isetann Recto

If you remembered one of last blogs about my trip to Manila in the day when typhoon Feria came in, this is a related blog to that...

After I finished some things in my trip, I got a chance to go to Isetann Recto coz its still early to go home & to try MvC2 there (due to some stories that my fellow gamers shared to me). The arcade places are in the 4th floor. First stop was one popular arcade place chain. Wondering only 2 played in that machine (coz of scoring credits), I got the answer after I played. Oh, the damage was quite a lot compared to others. Less value to your token that s why I can take it to finish the game & go to the nearby competitor. Wow in that place, MvC2 was at Lvl. 1, arcade was ok and theres another MvC2 arcade at Lvl. 2 settings.
