Long ago we recorded (or maybe just wrote) about our Top 5 Sequel Revivals where we talked about potentially dead franchises we desperately want sequels to. Well, Marvel vs Capcom 3 was pretty high on my list. Even then, I dreamed of what it would be like to be Dante in a fighting game. After playing with him at E3, I can safely say, it was as badass as I was expecting. There was only one problem, I needed to decide on his two partners, and the Hulk wasn't quite doing it for me. I wanted more of my "dream characters" in the game. While most of my dream choices are most likely not going to be in the game, two of them have been confirmed. And both also come from the brilliant mind of Hideki Kamiya!
First off, Viewtiful Joe is returning from Tatsunoko vs Capcom. This was a character I also dreamed of playing in Marvel vs Capcom 3 long before it or even Tatsunoko was announced. From Kamiya's amazing 2d comic book come to life, Viewitful Joe is a perfect fit with his insane powers and stylish moves.
I fairly recently posted an article berating Capcom for choosing some uninspired character for MvC3 (based on first trailer). I went on to offer some new dream choices I would like to see in the game. And while Lady (Devil May Cry 3) and Gene (Godhand) may have to wait till a sequel, my other choice is in! Behold, Amaterasu from Okami!
Her basic combos seems to consist of all her different weapon types from Okami, while her specials are based on her various brush techniques. I'm not sure what is going on with her supers, but they look cheap as hell.
My only concern now is that my team consists of two really short characters. Hopefully I won't get bitched at too much by picking Joe and Ammy.

i love that amy and joe are in MvC. if they do Gene from godhand as well, they would have the best of Clover all in 1 game.

Awesome team up! Don't worry about them being short, Nick is short and he does just fine (he is great really).

I am insanely happy for the choice of Ammy and Viewtiful Joe. I guess that God Hand didn't get any love because they already had two of the three top Clover characters already in the game. That would have been wonderful though. It's really disappointing that Trish is in the game instead of Lady, but I guess it makes a little sense. Dante in the game is DMC3 Dante, so they chose a character that wasn't in that game who was still different in gameplay. This game has an already great cast of characters and anything more that they're putting in might be difficult to top who they have so far.

Currently the characters that I'm interested in trying for this game are Amaterasu, Dante, Deadpool, Chris Redfield, and Chun-Li. Curious whether or not there will be a 2nd resident evil character to play as Chris' opposite for storyline, or if Hulk will be playing as it since he fights Chris in the trailer.

I... wha... ah...
I don't even know how to describe how absolutely amazing that video was. I've never been a fan of MvC series (and have barely played it due to lack of interest), but that video was ASTOUNDING. I always felt that MvC2 had terrible attack designs that were either directly ripped from other fighting games, or generic animations suped up with so much flare and epilepsy inducing flashes and lights, but all of those attacks and combos looked fluid, and felt thoroughly inspired by all of the tools and techniques Ammy had in Okami.
All in all, that's Amaterasu in near-perfect fighting game form. I just wonder how anyone could possibly hope to stand against her!
P.S. Generic Techno Remixes of songs are generally lame, but that The Sun Rises remix had me bouncing along with the video. I want an MP3 of that.

I really couldn't see them putting Gene in the game but Capcom could use a goofy counterpart to Deadpool.

This is pretty similar to how I felt when I found out Sonic and Snake were going to be in Super Smash Bros Brawl. Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiick.

I've never been a fan of fighter games, but I have obsessively played Okami over and over again in my pastime ever since it came out. It's safe to say that I will get this game just for the sake of playing as my all-time favorite video game protagonist again.

If they can get an Okami character in there, I think there may hope for other dream charcters as well. Maybe....even.....Killer 7...?????? :DDDDDDDDDDDDDD

looking at the trailier ammy definitely seems cheap
which makes her better to kick peoples asses with

I need to start playing more fighting games

I'm coming at ya with Team Guns (Dante, Chris, Deadpool), man!
But yeah, the moment that I saw Ammy in action, I was literally stunned; she looks like she can cover ground quite well, and it's going to be REAL tough to get out of a combo against her.
This game is becoming more and more awesome with each new trailer/character
