Earlier this week Marvel, Capcom, IGN and Sprint tooktheir giant piles of money andthrew one of the most lavish launch parties we've ever seen. There were gift bags, cosplayers, photo booths, hands-on sessions with Marvel vs Capcom 3 and Super Street Fighter IV 3DS, plus a Patron-showered musical act hosted by David Banner and featuring DJ Qbert, Hieroglyphics and Ghostface Killahof the Wu-Tang Clan. But best of all... it was open to the public! Fans lined up hours in advance, ready to get plastered and"acta fool."

I was able to pester some of first people in the door and ask them who would win in a fight between various Marvel and Capcom characters, so please to enjoy watching said hilarity. And then scroll on down for photos taken by our own Cheryll del Rosario!
