And I’m not sure it exists anymore
mvc2 players are pretty passionate. up until FFA closed I still saw people on the mvc2 cabs there all the time<br><br>but relative to ssf4ae/marvel3, anything released before 2008 is 6 feet under :(<br>

IronMan infinite for God Tier. Storm standing Fierce’s everything. Magneto players cry when multiple ROM loops barely do anything.

@ Mr. X I click off topic on accident sorry.<br>
it’s pretty dead mainstream wise. But I know xbox live has a strong community, psn is decent.<div><br></div>

It is more alive on Xbox than psn. Trust me, I have both versions. MvC2 still have fans and still alive till this day. Not sure when it is going to die down but I am still playing it.
PSN is more alive than XBL. XBL might have a few better players but in numbers, no.
