It astonishes me that Marvel could shut this great site down there and then, without even realising the consequences of such drastic actions. Which is of course, piracy! Now that they have done this, more people will probably go and get M.A.M.E (like me) and find a ROM site and download the full Arcade version of X-Men vs. Street Fighter instead. Surely Marvel should be more worried about blatant and repeated software piracy of commercial titles than one little Flash site which so many people enjoyed.
And what about Capcom? (Who I prefer to Marvel anyway!
) Why haven't they come along recently and ordered the closure of this site? Whether we will never know if in time they may have taken Marvel's course of action we will never know... But it was Marvel who came and dealt that horrible blow first, so we only have them to blame, I guess!
Anyway, as there seems to be no way I can play this online against other people anymore, guess it's off to a big ROM site to download a commercial arcade ROM of XMVSF for me then, as I wouldn't have to if the Flash site was still online! Shame on you Marvel for doing this! SHAME ON YOU! :angryfire:
( and partial kudos to Capcom for not doing the same thing as Marvel, but reduced for completely ignoring this website :shocked: )
But did Capcom ever know about this website? Surely if they knew of it's existence they would have complained - instead they seem to have let it carry on sensibly - IF they saw the site... Maybe someone could e-mail them and ask?
