Review: Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (PS3/360)

Tweet It’s ULTIMATE Mahvel, baby. Marvel vs. Capcom 3 launched to much fanfare nine months ago. Now, though crumbs of Pringles still litter the landscape and there’s still leftover Haagen Dazs in the fridges of fighting game fans worldwide, a new update (more than an add-on, less than a sequel)...
