These are fun games, so whether you’re a casual fighting fan looking to explore a diverse collection of fighting games or just a tournament fan looking to dive straight into Marvel vs. Capcom 2 with all the practical ways to practice, this collection should be a part of the library of every gamer, fan of fighting games and pop culture.” – Noisy pixel 9/10
“Whether you liked these games originally or are new to them, Marvel Vs. Capcom Fighting Collection is a great place to experience them. In other words, it will take you for a ride.” – GameSpot 8/10
“Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics is a complete package that brings together a wonderful collection of games while adding modern touches such as a feature-rich training mode and high-quality online gameplay. It’s great to see Capcom learning from their mistakes to incorporate into their latest collections. While it’s a fairly priced product, the value is significantly worse if you buy it just to play Marvel Vs. Capcom 2. Therefore, I encourage anyone who picks up this collection to at least try the other games included. Chances are you’ll have a great time.” – Player 8/10
