I'll probably bite the bullet and go all digital because 1) I don't like having to deal with switching out physical media (which is why I love XBLA and the PSN store) and 2) I, apparently, don't like having money in pocket. Also, switching cards every time I want to play something different kind of lessens the novelty of having a "portable" device.
With very few exceptions, I believe Capcom has made every fighting game starring Marvel characters. The two companies have a very strong link, in that regard. Why Netherrealm is even mentioned, I have no idea.
...Couldn't we just get all of them? Not all on one case, but maybe make them all available individually. Or make the cover double-sided, like Capcom did with Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3.
I worked for FedEx for 5 years sorting packages for delivery. Trust me when I say this: FedEx does not give a f*ck about you or your package. The only thing anyone cares about is getting the job done and going home. I've seen large crates that have been shipped over land and air and at some point were completely obliterated as if something were birthed out of them. Small packages fare about the same. There are so many ways for a box to be damaged and the contents lost or broken. All that being said, I can't say any other shipping company is better. I just know what I know. (I should note that I've only ever worked in one FedEx location, so conditions and work ethics might be different elsewhere.)
I think it's meant to be read as "...obscure [pop culture] and 80s [pop culture] and obscure 80s pop culture...", listing 3 different categories of pop culture.
Question: If the games are (apparently) so appalling to the author(s) of this article (and, I imagine, Kotaku staff in general), why are they advertising it?
