Marvel and Capcom Share the Stage
Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics includes seven classic games that helped shape the series. Included you have X-Men: Children of the Atom, Marvel Super Heroes, X-Men vs. Street Fighter, Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter, Marvel Vs Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes, and of course, Marvel vs Capcom 2.
You can enjoy these seven titles both in single player or in multiplayer, either cooperatively or competitively, locally or online.
Online play is smooth as it does away with input delay and instead opts for utilizing rollback netcode. What do those mean exactly? Well, in online games, it takes time for the information of each player’s buttons commands to reach each others consoles given the distance. If players push their buttons at the exact same time, they won’t know until the information from their opponent’s console reaches them. Input delay waits to execute either action until the console hears from its distant counterpart. This keeps the game in sync, but adds a noticeably delay to the buttons you press and what you see happen on screen.
When using rollback, your fighter acts immediately as soon as the buttons are pressed, without waiting for information from the other console. Once the other console’s information reaches yours, the game compensates by jumping the other player ahead, synchronizing the game. This gives a lag free experience and in fighting games, any input lag can feel sluggish and negatively affect the game. Rollback netcode makes for a smoother experience to the player overall.
Also added to the collection of games is a brand new training mode and high score challenge to hone and show off your skills.
