Is Marvel vs. Capcom 2 Getting the HD Treatment?

I spent a lot of time with Marvel vs. Capcom 2 on my Dreamcast with frequent revisits later on the Xbox and PS2.  So the rumors of a possible MvC2 HD Remix have me feeling pretty excited.

And by rumors I mean some pretty implicit signs. 

A recent entry on the official Capcom blog shows a link to a teaser site containing a countdown and a large 2.  The teaser site (tu4ar.com) should scream out to fans of the classic fighter.  If there's one thing people remember about MvC2, it's the stellar theme song "Take You 4 A Ride."



Also keep in mind that Marvel vs. Capcom 2 was rated last year by the ESRB for both the PS3 and Xbox 360, adding yet another level of possibility to this gossip.

With the recent success of both Street Fighter IV and SFHD Remix, it's no surprise that Capcom wants to keep the monetary momentum rolling.  They have to make up for cash they lost on their terrible movies after all.  And while a direct port with online matchups would be great, it would be even more awesome to see MvC2 get the full HD Remix treatment.


As of this post the countdown has five days left and rest assured that we'll bring you the latest news as it hits.  What's that?  My fav MvC2 team?  Ryu, Spider-Man, and Jill.  Which about sums up my imagination: fireballs, superheroes, and zombies.
