I should just remove the “Rumor” word from the headline because this is about as close to fact as you can get. In fact, within this news story the following information will be regarded as fact and not speculation, all because of a very bold comment made on a forum board.

The Game Reviews’ Rumor Killer article topples the long awaited news regarding Capcom’s famed classic, Marvel Vs. Capcom 2, coming to the Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network.

Now, before I go on, I’d just have to say that I think the SNK vs. Capcom series is long overdue for an appearance on the console arcade platforms. But hey, that’s just me. Anyway, a fan on the Shoryken forum board posted a comment about MvsC 2 when he seen that the game was listed as coming to the PS3. The comment was as follows: “Lol ok I’m dumb. Ok thought maybe you guys knew something we didn’t,” and the response to this comment? Well, it was as follows: “Oh we do.”

As I said, this is more like a news story announcing Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 for the online platforms rather than reporting a rumor. But until the official announcement arrives at the doorstep of our e-mail accounts, we’ll just have to play along and pretend as if the game is up in the air for landing on XBLA or PSN (even though Capcom recently buckled in a lot of success from the release of Street Fighter II HD). Of course, there’s always the possibility that this is teaser-information and a precursor for a possible Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 announcement? … … …Nah.

Anyway, be sure to stay tuned in with Blend Games for more news and info regarding all things gaming.
