Main review

Overall comments/Misc

This is fine as most of the violated contents are basic words ("Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes", "Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix", etc).
  • I suggest you install
    undue
    hyperlinks.

Lead

  • Marvel vs. Capcom 2 is the first game in the franchise to utilize 2.5D graphics; although the character artwork uses traditional 2D-animated sprites, the backgrounds and visual effects are rendered in 3D.
Could this be worded a little differently? Such as; "The character artwork uses traditional 2D-animated sprites, the backgrounds and visual effects are rendered in 3D. This made Marvel vs. Capcom 2 the first game in the franchise to feature 2.5D graphics".
You might wanna hyperlink "2.5D" as some people may not know what it is.

Gameplay

  • Assists come with a drawback; assist characters receive extra damage if stuck by the opponent.
Remove the "Assists come with a drawback;" section, it seems out of place and unnecessary.
  • Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes contains a roster of 56 playable characters.
The reference says it's 55 and an "alternate costume". You may want to change that, just personal preference.

Development

  • "The game was the first in the Marvel vs. Capcom series to combine hand-drawn two-dimensional sprites with three-dimensional backgrounds".
"The game was the first in the Marvel vs. Capcom series to combine hand-drawn two-dimensional sprites upon three-dimensional backgrounds" may be better.
I can't find this statement in the reference.
It's on the second page. MvC2 effectively combines hand-drawn two-dimensional sprites with cartoon-like three-dimensional backgrounds. Wani (talk) 04:28, 6 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • The 4th paragraph seems very reliant on one reference.

Release

  • Everything is fine here

Reception

  • I fixed the only minor error here.

Sequel

  • Everything is fine here

This is very close to a good article. After these errors are fixed I'll have no problems with passing it. Anarchyte 08:31, 5 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have two additional comments. Source 2 is an unreliable source.

AdrianGamer: Is it safe to pass the review now? Wani has fixed all the issues I stated in the review. As for MobyGames, it's only being used for release dates, wouldn't it be fine to use? Anarchyte 03:33, 6 July 2015 (UTC)[reply

MobyGames features user-submitted content. There may be some inaccuracies. So, no, it should not be used, even just for release dates.

Drat...it's gonna be a nightmare trying to find articles verifying the earlier dates. Oh well. I'll start looking. Wani (talk) 04:32, 6 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
IGN lists the release dates in the 'Game Details' sections on the sides of their reviews, such as here and here. Is that okay to use? Wani (talk) 04:42, 6 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, these could be used.

I've successfully replaced MobyGames with other sources (easier than I thought it'd be). Still need to replace the publishers with work fields. Wani (talk) 19:02, 6 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Done. Wani (talk) 20:12, 6 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
