Arthur is kind of in that boat too, I mean I guess he has holy ghoul & ghost slaying weapons, but the dude is running around in boxers half the time.

One look at an MvC game and you know that shit is not going to make a lick of sense. Story? Continuity? lol.

And somehow it will still make about as much sense as any other fighting game series plot.

I think this shows how little sense the SF story makes (almost seems like a fanfic), taken from http://streetfighter.wikia.com/wiki/Cammy:

"Cammy's early history is unknown; her first appearance in the Street Fighter chronology was Street Fighter Alpha 3, where she was a soulless Doll sent to assassinate Dhalsim. Dhalsim used his spiritual powers to make her self-aware, and she realized that Shadaloo was controlling her. M. Bison sent Vega to observe her. When Vega confronted her, he revealed to her that she was an "experiment" and was no longer needed. Vega intentionally lost a battle to her, and she wondered why Shadaloo wanted to destroy her, since she had never committed any altercations against them. She later encountered Juli and Juni, two other Shadaloo Dolls, who lacked the benefit of self-awareness. When Cammy confronted Bison, he told her that she was meant to become his next body, after his current physical manifestation was destroyed by his own Psycho Power. Cammy managed to break the twelve Dolls free from Shadaloo's mind control, and they confronted Bison together. He explained to Cammy that she was a clone of himself who possessed a small portion of his Psycho Power, and that if he were to die, she would die as well. Cammy fought against his psychic probing and rescued the Dolls from Bison's control with the Psycho Drive. Cammy got the Dolls out the Shadaloo base and then fell unconscious, no longer a clone, but an independent human. Vega rescued her before the base was destroyed, not wanting to allow a beautiful human to die. He deposited her on the doorstep of the British paramilitary government organization Delta Red."

Fighting games don't usually have a story -- they just have characters that enter a tournament for whatever reason so everyone has a beginning and end clip and a rival on the way, I think.

But since the beginning the MvC3 team has been harping about how they're trying to make a real story with this entry and how they actually put together a comic and everything to go with it? I expect more now -- especially with the way they've been teasing the "trailers".

Haggar is fine. One out of 30+ characters doesn't fit. OMG. the internet. :\

Don't sully his mind with that rubbish.

What the ? That's exactly what I'm talking abotu! I don't understand anything!

Maybe, I doubt the story will be anything really great though. Whenever I think of amazing fighting game stories, I personally think of MvC1, I loved the story in it.

As for the comic to go with it? Marvel Nemesis did that too... 0_0 I have it. It was terrible, I don't have super expectations about the MvC3 story.

Any dude who can piledrive other dudes is alright in my book. He's like 'gief's American uncle or something.

Yeah, me, too! The rumor I heard a couple of years ago was that Gief was actually based on Haggar.

At least I didn't post some of Blazblue's story (especially Continuum Shift which is apparently a time loop of the first game or something), I'm amazed anyone can even understand the plot of that game.

All you have to know for BB:CS is "japanese anime".

I just wish mvc3 was compiled of chars that haven't been in previous games. I get giddy when NEW chars are announced.. not Wolverine or Storm. :\

Anime typically makes more sense then this:

"In BlazBlue: Continuum Shift, he (Hazama) appears as the main antagonist and a playable character, planning to destroy the core unit, Amateratsu, using Noel Vermillion, who becomes the Kusanagi unit, Mu (μ-12). He sacrificed many NOL members in order to temper her. During the ending it is revealed that Hazama and Relius Clover are working for Ragna and Jin's little sister Saya, who is now the Imperator of The NOL. In the post-credits sequence he is shown standing over a Cauldron containing the remains of Nu (v-13) with Relius, commenting that it could be used to make the "Sword of the Imperator" ("Sword of Izanami" in the Japanese dub)."

Holy shit.

Complaints about realism in MvC?

Really?

Totally. Why don't the opponents explode when hulk punches them?

"Takamagahara( "High Plain of Heaven") is a location in BlazBlue. The three entities that reside in Takamagahara are named TA, TB, and TC.

Takamagahara is a mysterious organization of three individuals. They are invisible beings, but they can cast humanoid shadows from chairs to the floor in a white room. They seem to have one mind and observe all of the possibilities of the timeline, guiding it toward some certain goal. It is implied that they are god-like but were actually created by humans. They apparently want to destroy the Amaterasu Unit as well, but seem to want to keep time looping to prevent the world from ever ending.

They had given Rachel Alucard the position of "Observer", and she violated the rules by activating the Tsukuyomi Unit at the end of BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger, so they let her leave the position."

Don't sully his mind with that filth either.

Too late.
