Marvel Vs Capcom 2 soundtrack strikes PSN next week

by Andrew Yoon { Aug 13th 2009 at 3:15PM }

You may not be able to get one of these sweet vinyl discs, distributed at Comic Con, but you can get the next best thing. Capcom will be distributing this Marvel Vs Capcom 2 mix tape online through the PlayStation Network next week. We're hoping it will follow the footsteps of Street Fighter II's soundtrack by being zero dollars.

The soundtrack will be a nifty addition to any PS3, especially because MvC2 is one of the few games that support the in-game XMB soundtrack function. MvC2 will be available for US players later today. Make sure you're one of the first 15,000 people to download the game if you want free one month access to Marvel Digital Comics (a $10 value).

Man, I already downloaded MvC on XBLA but I am so tempted to get a third copy. I also want this soundtrack like nobody's business. I'm a sucker for this kinda stuff.

I read somewhere that there's supposed to be some swag if you purchase the game from a retailer like Gamestop.

rells009 @ Aug 13th 2009 5:03PM

According to this Siliconera article:

"The retail pack contains a code to download Marvel vs. Capcom 2 and according to a Capcom-Unity forum poster a DVD case, eight page color manual, one month subscription to Marvel Digital Comics, and 2000 Capcom-Unity points for $14.99. It looks like the media disc containing wallpapers isn’t part of the bundle anymore."

whats with the PS non-love.....you guys KNOW if this was for 360 it would have made the front page....

Andrew Yoon @ Aug 13th 2009 5:27PM

It's a rough balance. Putting things on the front page slows down stories. This is the kind of story we thought you'd appreciate seeing sooner than later, and is definitely meant for the hardcore PS3 fan.

Chris D.(PSN: Aggie_CEO | XBL:The Aggie CEO | Steam: Aggie_CEO @ Aug 13th 2009 8:06PM

I can understand that Andrew, but it just seems like lately we have been seeing more and more JUST Xbox news on the front page than JUST PS3 news...thats all...

Torgo @ Aug 13th 2009 3:47PM

Doesn't everyone complain about this soundtrack constantly?

j.howlett @ Aug 13th 2009 4:10PM

this is more like the SSFTHD sound track, new songs and the game has custom sound track

illogicalpimp @ Aug 13th 2009 4:16PM

im done with joystiq b4. i miss psfanboy you guys hate the ps3 ur worse then fox news.. if this was a xbox it would b on the front page...

Andrew Yoon @ Aug 13th 2009 5:28PM

How do we hate the PS3? We promised that when the sites merged, PS Fanboy would continue getting original stories -- and that, in fact, with the help of Joystiq, we'd have even more stories on the page. I believe we've been delivering on that, without having to rely on total rumor-mongering like other sites.
