We've got bad news for these eBay sellers -- a poster on NeoGAF noticed that Marvel vs. Capcom 2 has been rated for both the PS3 and Xbox 360. Presumably, the title will be a downloadable one on the PS Store and XBLA. The ESRB has been a good source of leaks in the past, so we have no reason believe otherwise in this instance.

With the a total of 56 playable characters in the game spanning two vast fictional universes, hopefully Capcom doesn't plan on charging us $1.99 per character download.

If this is actually remade with online.. :D

Why would they charge you if the characters were made to be unlocked IN GAME? It wouldn't be a remake, just a port. I'd love to see a rebalanced mode, but that's just me.

Well, that was a reference to them charging $1.99 for certain content in Mega Man 9.

And yeah, I know it'd be a port (I dont think they can do that much when they dont have the Marvel license), still, an online mode would absolutely make the game if they'd be able to add it.

I know the reference. It just fails in this case because the characters are already in the game..you just need to use the point system to unlock them...unlike a certain SoulCalibur 4 which had the extra equipment locked in the game but inaccessible until you coughed up $1.99 of however much it was.

Well it has been removed from the ESRB, and without the MARVEL license they can't release the game anyways I think.

Well, that's disappointing. :(
Ah, well. There's always the PS2 version.

Don't give up hope just yet, just treat this as a rumor for now.

I sure when Marvel negotiated a contract with EA for the Marvel license that it had a clause the more or less said that if Marvel should ever become dissatisfied with the way EA is handling the Marvel Intellectual Property that they reserve the right to void from the contract and seek out other parties. Perhaps this is what is going on.

Well, you have to remember, this was a supposed "leaked" bit of info. If it slips up early then you'll have to expect them to take it back down. Don't lose faith.
