You can't really say I'm bad at Marvel vs Capcom 3. I think you have to have a basic understanding of how a game works before you can be bad at it. I might be bad someday, but until then, I will enjoy watching someone much better than me, learn how to play from someone much much better than me. And I'm fine with that. This video series is surprisingly effect at making me want to get good at this game of which I know nothing about.

Below are the first two episodes of a video series that has Mike Ross training Gootecks at Marvel vs Capcom 3. Both are pro fighting game players, but Gootecks has never stepped into the world of pro Marvel play. Even if you are not really interested in this game, the episodes are very entertaining to watch. There are genuinely funny moments and the bromance is palpable. If you have ever played a fighting game seriously, there is a lot to love here. It seems watching people play video game is actually entertaining.

    I dunno about that. I mean, I'm a pretty bad doctor because I don't know crap about medicine.

    Cool videos.

    Even having never even played the game, these videos were pretty interesting.

    Gootecks and Ross are a pretty awesome duo. They do the same thing with Super Street Fighter IV, but slightly different since they're both pros at that.

    that was genuinely funny and mike ross is about as pro as a pro can be so the premise works for me.

    Never been a big fan of fighting games, but the videos were entertaining to watch.

    I only wish at least half of the actual fighting community was as cool as these two, especially when it comes to MvC3.

    Yeah I've been following their excellent adventures series for SF4 even though I didn't like the game that much because they are great guys. Hopefully they can start trolling people online like they did with SSF4 because that's when the real fun starts. Also, Mike seems like he's in love with sentinel the way he talks about him...

    I just wish this guy didn't clam up so much. His Sentinel getting destroyed in the 3rd match or whatever was kinda sad. I like this though. Its like the road to the top.
