It's not the fact that it's 3 tenths of a point that makes it bad, it's the fact that fanboys will use these numbers to prove some future "arguments" on da interwebs.

But yet they still gave the 360 version a beat only for some obvious minor issues. The reviewer mentionned a "few frame hiccups"what is not enough IMO to explain the score difference. There's got to be another difference and we're investigating to find it out.

You don't think frame hiccups at the start of the match isn't enough to affect gameplay? I most definitely disagree, and since this game is entirely just one type of match, which lasts probably 60 seconds, having a few frame hiccups at the beginning of each one could easily account for a small difference in gameplay scores.

Well I agree with the difference of score in the gameplay section but I think the overall score should not be affected that much. Going from 9.0 to 8.7 is a little severe for some gameplay problems.

But I think we should wait for further reviews or video comparaison.

I doubt many other reviews will view it as enough of a difference to make the scores differ, but I can definitely see where they're coming from.

As for why a change in gameplay score was enough to change overall, if you look gameplay is one of the few things getting it to the overall it has. Lasting Appeal is 10, but the three other scores are all 7's. If the idea is that they decided gameplay is important enough to make the review a 9.0 instead of the average which would be an 8.0 than if gameplay is change I would expect it to have an unusually large affect on the overall.

I don't get this, a few screen tear is enough to detract 0.3 from gameplay??? What about Ghostbuster, even with the clearly inferior graphic score did ign take any scores from it?

PS3 controller better for fighting games
X360 controller better for shooter games.
Both has their pros and cons.

@NSS7 but you don't see IGN taking points from Cod4 on PS3 because the 360 has a better controller for shooter? How about SFIV, less point on the 360? No it isn't. This is baffling.

They should release a HAPP stick for this so I can complete my collection.

As much as i like fighting games, i could never enjoy Marvel vs. Capcom game mainly because i really dislike comic books
