. So far, we've only gotten to see the game with local play, without any access to the online multiplayer. Will it be a laggy mess? God I hope not, because my all-Gambit team isn't going to beat the hell out of itself. Well, not effectively anyway.
Microsoft's run-down is below. I'm going to guess you're all picking this up... but which version? Going Xbox or waiting for PSN?

Fans asked, and Capcom listened! One of the most popular fighting games of all time arrives on Xbox LIVE® Arcade. MARVEL™ VS.
