Not everyone loves it, electronic music ages horribly and this is basically an europop mixtape, I like rock soundtracks on fighting games personally, but many other genres fit as long as they put effort in creating something fitting, like the bluesy, classic, jazzy, folk soundtrack of Fatal Fury, Art Of Fighting and earlier kof's. The soundtrack of MVC and MVC2 was lazily made and was probably just outsourced rather than designed with the game in mind.
@Judgment 4 жыл бұрын
CvS2 soundtrack is good. The variety in numbers is a bit lacking during actual game play, as there's not many stages to choose from, especially during the arcade days (only six stages were available in versus mode - New York was surprisingly available in 1P only). All things considered, it aged very well. So did CvS1 to be honest.

This game is amazing. I have a ton of fun every time I play it whether it's solo or with my friends. The reason people love the Cube controller is because it feels good on the hands, the A button on the center and the rest of the buttons around make it easy to press simultaneously with the other buttons, the stick feel like they can endure everything and are precise, and that "clang" sound the triggers do make you feel like you're actually pulling a trigger. If you don't like the GameCube controller, you either never played a Game Cube or you are too attached to the PS controller, which is one of the most standard controllers there are, not that it's a bad thing.

CvS2 is truly a great fighting game. It doesn't see the play from me it used too, but it brought so much and even now I am sure I only touched the tip of the iceberg. One of the things I loved was its nods to other fighters, for instance., when Sagat wins and can be heard saying "try again kid" a reference to his what the player heard when they lost in the first street fighter. Even claw, who would shake his head when matched against those he deemed ugly!

S Groove is from SNK titles that use the single bar super that you can manually charge by holding ABC (KOF 94, 95, 96, 97 Extra Mode, for example)--called Extra Gauge in this game. N Groove is from KOF 97 and 98 Advanced Mode--3 bars can be stored, built up by doing moves and charged by pressing ABC, allowing a more powerful super--called Advanced Gauge. K Groove is Rage Gauge from the Samurai Shodown series--a single super bar that builds by being hit.

The reason the gamecube version was inferior was never about the controller. It was about the techs that other versions had were removed from the gamecube specifically.

Fun detail about the Xbox version: it only cost $5 :) An edition of the US Official Xbox Magazine, which included a demo disc, had a "demo" of the game that was the full thing! Sure, it was in Japanese only and didn't allow saving, but those limitations were not deal breakers! So sorry Capcom because even though I am a big fan of your fighting games (and SNK's!), I didn't buy it because Official Xbox Magazine pretty much gave it away!

10:18 Wow, they really have a level where a ship embarks into the fight from way behind the scene. Madness of background sequence and detail!

Really a fantastic game. Reignited my love for 2D fighters after stumbling upon it in the arcades all the way back in 2001. Bought the GameCube port the day it came out and tried my damndest to play with the stock controller. Fantastic character lineup, I had never played any of SNK’s fighting games prior, however this entry made me seek out the KOF series, Samurai Shodown and Fatal Fury.

It would have been good to mention the blunder of the Capcom vs SNK 2 EO demo on the Xbox Exhibition Demo Disc 2. Even though it is a demo about 98% of the game is playable. Some sources say that at most it is only missing two unlockable characters, two unlockable stages and, the online mode. Great video either way. I noticed that even though the intro for the game says you are experiencing the tournament for the new millenium when the year starts counting up symbolising/predicting how the game will be long lasting for years to come, as the years count up it is noticeable that the most the third digit in the year advances to is "1" with the last number not noticable (201?). That means that to the games own accord it's playability can last up too 2019. (That is the final year to have a "1" in the third column.) With all this in effect it would be perfect for Capcom vs SNK 3 to release next year in 2020!

Great vid! You are correct about the background music in all the Dreamcast Capcom fighters, although nothing is quite as horrible as the soundtrack of MVC2! Anyway, Looking forward to finding out why SVC Chaos was such a train wreck!

Oh my goodness! I've actually had this game as my number 2, 2-D fighting game of all time. (MvsC2 being number one) But if that game didn't exist, this would've definitely been the one for me.

My biggest gripe with this game was Capcom recycling character sprites (Morrigan is the biggest offender here). If they gave Chun Li new sprites, everyone else that needed them should have had them (MORRIGAN). Another gripe I have is that this game could easily be Street Fighter vs King of Fighters. More character diversity was needed. This game could do without the evil and superpowered clones. Another gripe is the lack of EX moves. That was a missed opportunity, especially for P groove. Otherwise, the game is easily a classic.

What made this game so special was Capcom’s run in the arcade. I knew about SNK fighters but it was more embraced by the Latin community in the West. Plus SNK cabinets were made for lefty which I’ve seen people would have to cross their arms on Capcom’s cabinets. So when CvS1 dropped it gave me a better appreciation for the SNK culture due to Capcom’s crossover success with Marvel. CvS2 was the last of the Arcade Era and exceeded expectations. The character select music gets me inspired.

the GOAT of 2D fighters. The only thing which could make it better is to have stage intros and cheesy effects as in CVS1.

I play Capcom vs SNK 2 on the GameCube and it controls fine. I use the D-pad even though the analog stick is one of the best in the industry. And yes, I am a veteran of 2D fighters, been playing since 1994. There's a reason Nintendo still produces GameCube controllers to this very day.

I loved this game. That's saying a lot since i was unfamiliar with SNK beyond Fatal Fury at that point. i feel a case could be made for it being one of the best Fighting Games of all time. It also was the first online Fighting Game so that's going to trigger a lot of folk's nostalgia. :3
