    This game is pretty good if you always wanted to buy Marvel Vs Capcom 3 but you didn't. It's almost the same game with fews minors changes ( like spec mode online , new menus, etc) + 12 news charaters and a few more map.In the other hand, if you already bought MVC3 at full price, you might not want to get this again at this price, unless you really wanna play those 12 news charaters.It'sThis game is pretty good if you always wanted to buy Marvel Vs Capcom 3 but you didn't.

    Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 is a great game for the Xbox 360. It's also the only fighting game I've ever played where it's really easy to pull off huge combos, I can pull off combos of around 40-100 hits, which is hugely fun and impressive.

Overall this game is very fun and has cartoony, crisp visuals. Buy this game if you want to be impressed by it's epicness!… Expand

    This game is really extraordinary. Maybe it was released too early, but remains an excellent game. Fun and graphically beautiful. It has to have. Capcom's policy is not excellent as the game, but this should not affect us.

    This game is for two audiences- those who for whatever reason didn't pick up MvC3 and the hardcore fighters who are buying this in addition to MvC3. I find myself in the latter category- I had both MvC3 and UMvC3 on preorder. This game does add a good roster to the MvC3 group. They are advertising that the game is more balanced, and it definitely feels that way.

If you do, then I'd probably only recommend this game if you are really a hardcore player- there is a lot of new stuff, but it may not be worth $40 more dollars for someone who already has MvC3.… Expand

    This is one of the best games of 2011. With more characters, stages, moves, modes, and overall balancing, this is the game Capcom should have released in the first place.

    This game should not be judged by it's history (terrible DLC practices and released too early), it should be judge by being fun and as a game and i find the game very fun. Sure it coulda used more modes (really should have used more modes) but the overall characters just leaves you with endless possibilities to create your own teams and use them competitively.

Sure it coulda used more modes (really should have used more modes) but the overall characters just leaves you with endless possibilities to create your own teams and use them competitively. The combos in this game almost make you want to comeback to practice so you can make your own creative combos with all of your team members (Wesker, Iron Man, Akuma for me). Again, the game was rushed out the door to fast and there are very little modes, but the fighting is so addicting that i want to play this game at least once a day. Both the PS3 and 360 versions get a 9 from me.… Expand

    Another mercenary act from Capcom, release a game at February, and release its "expansion" at November. It's not just Capcom, it happens with Mortal Kombat 2011, Street Fighter IV, Injustice and probably Killer Instinct 2013.

    Pues miren es un excelente juego de lucha, quizás falten varios personajes de las entregas anteriores y que se haya implementado prácticamente un resumen de control para hacerlo accesible a todo publico, pero sigue teniendo un punto de perfeccionismo muy bueno, buenos gráficos, gran soundtrack, recomendado.

    A superb fighting game with a huge roster of characters and endless replayability. Not a big improvement on Marvel vs Capcom 3 (the added characters are not great in my opinion) but then it features everything MvC3 did plus more!

    This is by far better than what was originally released. It is a great way to get friends playing fighting games if they are like 100% FPS fanboys, because this game is forgiving if you have a fault. The 40$ price tag is a good deal. People will cry and say the first one came out 9 months ago i paid 60. Ok well you buy the same COD game every year 60 a pop whats the difference?

UMvC3 is a blast to play, the online is now way more solid connection wise + spectator mode is great. Though the online has the frustration factor if you are playing people that are just dedicated to the game and clean you out in 15 seconds.… Expand

    If you own previous –non-Ultimate- versions of this punch-and-kick game there is no reason to buy this one. Otherwise, you should try it – it is still a great fight with crazy visuals and endless multiplayer fun. [Jan 2012]

    More, more, more. Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 has more of everything from the original: more characters and costumes, more stages, more modes available already on the disc, simply more fighting possibilities than ever starring some of the most popular Marvel and Capcom characters.

    By all accounts, the game itself is fantastic and much deserved of the score we gave MvC3 but there just isn't enough in UMvC3 to really set it apart as a title in its own right.
