Sentinel vs. Sentinel: The Fate of Sentinel

So I used to blog about video games in my women’s studies class and how bad they were and how children shouldn’t play them because they depict that violence is right and awesome. Okay so I lied, video games are great and I love them.

Lately the video game that I have been playing is Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds. It is a fighting game that include characters from Marvel, such as Wolverine, Magneto, DeadPool, Storm, Sentinel, and Hulk; and also characters from Capcom such as Morrigan, Ryu, Akuma, Wesker, Viewtiful Joe, and Dante. So in the game you are able to play some of your favorite characters from comic books, cartoons, and movies.

So there are a few different sections in the game, as such any game. There is “offline mode,” this is mode in which you can play against your friends, or play “arcade mode,” which is a mode in which you can play against the computer for a few different stages. Also in the offline mode you can do training, where you can play against the computer or a friend, you just can never die so it’s great if you want to practice.

There is also something called “missions” in offline mode, where you push the buttons on the controller that it tells you too, to perform different combos. This is also very helpful because it shows you how to link together certain moves. There are ten different missions for every character.

Now there is “online mode,” or as I call it the crazy mode. This is the mode where you can go online and play against other opponents from all over the world. China, Japan, London, Australia, Canada, you name it, they’re on it. On this mode, you can either go into something called the lobby, where you take turns playing the previous winner until he or she is defeated, then you play against the new winner.

There is also the “Rank match” this is where you play against someone once and you are just playing to try to level up your rank, to show how good you are at the game. Now keep in mind that people all over the world play this game um let me think, EVERY DAY. So they can get really good at this game. CAUTION: GAME MAY CAUSE HEADACHES AND FRUSTRATION, CAPCOM IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE YOU MAY DO TO YOUR PROPERTY.

There are also tournaments that are hosted, where, if you’re good enough, you can go national and play against other pro-players to try and achieve a trophy and the title of the winner of the game. Once again, another event in which you can play against others all around the world.

Though this game has caused many a frustration for me, in the end it is just a game and a very good one at that. I would recommend this game to anyone and I give it 5 out of 5 stars!
