I'm super pumped for it being in the new game. Favorite part: Vulture: [holding Aunt May] (to spiderman) I know you're fast. Think you're fast enough to save her before I snap her neck? Spiderman: No. [Reveals revolver] Probably not. [Shoots Vulture several times] Just read Spiderman Noir. I’m super pumped for it being in the new game.

Wow. Just noticed that there's an Ashley Williams in Mass Effect. Wonder if that's a tribute or something to Evil Dead.

Simply as comments on the form of what you seem to be doing with these "tweets", it just looks like a shortened version of the "8 gaming tidbits", except there are ten. I do like that you've taken into consideration shortening the length of some of your posts. I feel that you made too great of a leap in length here though, much like that between a novel and a newspaper article. I liked the "twitterings" stuff in the side bar, but making a whole post about it seems like a stretch simply for appeasing the desire for shorter content. I'm not terribly bothered by long winded reviews, however I would like to see the shortening of things extend to your other posts, specifically the "8 gaming tidbits" as a feel a more apt title would be "8 gaming essays". I hereby submit my resume for the hopefully soon to open position of your official unofficial copy editor/editor/editor-at-large (whichever position opens first). Kidding. But seriously; adding another person to this operation you have here could definitely make things easier for you.

I loved it for Street fighter 4 and i think it could definitely do well for Marvel vs. Capcom. As to whether this is pre-rendered. Yes. It is. And I'm surprised you were unsure of that. Of anyone I'd trust you to pick out the pre-rendered from the not with your jaded and oh so critique filled nose... or other appendage used for picking. Unless they're planning on changing the gameplay of Marvel vs. Capcom 3 drastically, this video is like the intro/attract mode that they had for Street Fighter 4 and their ads for the game. I want to go back and play some Street Fighter 4, but there's a large gap it seems between Dead or Alive and Street Fighter in terms of gameplay and twitch reflexes, and I'm not sure i ever fully got the hang of it. Plus, Super Street Fighter 4 is out with a bunch of new characters and stuff... but that'll cost a bunch of of money that I don't have right now... or at least, money that is going towards Red Dead Redemption. !!!

I'm looking forward to this installment. Capcom is going to be raking money in for quite sometime. yea the visual style for MVC 3 is going to kick-ass. I’m looking forward to this installment.
