@Nidorom I don’t know. Couldn’t put my finger on it but it just wasn’t for me. There’s nothing wrong with the game it’s definitely a me issue. But I’m knee deep with Civ VII and Two Point Museum in 2 weeks which also may have something to do with it. But I canceled my preorder after playing the demo.

The demo did the opposite effect for me, I wanted the game and the demo turned me off

Never been so happy to be wrong. Will eat crow daily until they release. Made my day!!

@GamingFan4Lyf From what I understand (and I'm no expert so take this with a giant grain of salt) is that MS ended support for the old framework since then. Same reason we've seen no new BC games. The telling will be what happens when/if MUA 1/2 and Deadpool come back as they have no native X/S version either. Could all be tied together and that gets these collections on Xbox, who knows.

@GamingFan4Lyf From my knowledge you're spot on. There's no PS5 release either because of the framework. MS doesn't truly require an X/S release, but at the same time, it can't support the old framework and release, so it has to be reworked anyway. MS merged everything together and Sony did not, so that's why the PS4 version can come out. Different store, different framework.

@PsBoxSwitchOwner 100% agree. Besides the true hardcore fighting game fans like myself, I don't think it's that big of a market for them when you'd poll 100 random gamers. The fact they don't have cross play also makes me think these will die a very quick death. Will be a cool notoriety for a few weeks then people will move on. Kind of feels like how we all were so excited for Goldeneye to come back, it did and we enjoyed it for a hot minute and moved on.

@kuu_nousee Agreed. Until Capcom or Microsoft comes out and says "We're investigating if these can come to Xbox" then they just aren't coming to Xbox. I thought for sure if they had supposedly been working on it for awhile now for the MvC Collection, that a 2025 game with no concrete date would have had Xbox branding at the end. Which I can only hope for so long until dreams continue to get dashed.

@BlueSheepz I'll happily be wrong and hope my negative stance is wrong on this. If my negativity spurns the games to come to XBox then I'll be the happiest gamer on the planet. I have Marvel vs. Capcom 2 on my 360 so I can still play it. I despise the Switch and PS5 controllers for fighting games, so it's Xbox or bust for me. Again, I want to be wrong.

He definitely did say those things, I'm not going to hunt down the tweets, and he may have deleted them, but there are definitely receipts out there.

It's not coming to Xbox, neither is MvC. The guy claiming they are working on it has been throwing tons of random "insider" ideas out there over the last year and most have been wrong. He said he heard that no other MS games including Indiana Jones were going to PS5 as well and that Sony had paid for exclusive rights for Wukong. It's easy to be an "insider" and claim things, if you get them right you look brilliant and if not "didn't work out" All for clicks.

Somehow, someway give me Marvel vs Capcom Collection on Xbox.

I’m all for the end of exclusive games stuck to a plastic box. 99% of the games I play are 3rd party anyway. Just prefer the Xbox controller and ecosystem of achievements, friends etc. so my worry isn’t at all about games on PS5 it’s 3rd party companies saying why are we wasting resources on Xbox versions of our games. The issue is if PS5 has their exclusive titles and Xbox’s as well, people simply won’t buy Xbox consoles even less than now. I have thousands in games, controllers, consoles for Xbox. It would be sad that my library of BC games ends and those games all die off.

I was excited for this game, but it just looks kind of boring? I think I wanted more Crazy Taxi and less Bus Simulator but with a taxi cab. And where's the driver's arms???

Not good. They count canceling a preorder with gift cards as a refund. So that’s caused me not to get a refund when I was deserving of one.

Every game but Mortal Kombat is on Midway Arcade Origins which is backwards compatible with Series consoles. It's routinely $4.99 on sale.
