What did he even do at Capcom? I've seen him talk about what their doing with SFV and Marvel Infinite but what did he actually work on? Just a community manager?

Man that's awesome. Wasn't too big into watching fighting game stuff but did watch Running Sets and compilations of his comebacks. Bionic Arm!!!!

That's awesome. I'll enjoy Spider-Man even more knowing he was involved. Combofiend always seemed like one of the nicest dudes in the FGC.

I don't think I've ever heard the quote before.

"If you were to actually think about it, these characters are just functions. They're just doing things," said Peter Rosas.

"Magneto, case and point, is a favorite because he has eight-way dash and he's really fast, right? Well guess what, Nova can do the same thing, Captain Marvel can do the same thing. Ultron can do the same thing."

"It's just the function that people are associating with the character, and there's no shortage of that. We made sure that all proper playstyles can be represented with our current roster."

This was in regards to X-Men characters not being in the new Marvel vs. Capcom which was likely due to Marvel's MCU focus.

Holy fuck that is one fucking step up for Combofiend.

No wonder he hasn't returned to the FGC for real even after his Capcom stint

Feels great to have one of our own infiltrate mahvel... Now, let's get combofiend to make them loosen up the mahvel characters a bit more for a new mvc game. We can't let the series die like this with mvci. Mvc deserves better.

I mean, we knew he was at Marvel Games for a while, but yeah.

It makes sense that he gets producer credit, Marvel Games doesn't actually do any Game Dev themselves, pretty much.

But yeah here's the Marvel Games crew.

Good for him! Now go produce more Marvel non-fighting games too with a AAA budget. we need more superhero games that are not fighters cause we already had plenty of superhero fighting games (My Hero, IJ2, MvC:I, etc).

Oh he did?

The only thing I remember him doing was showing up with fchamp/etc for casuals at one point, but I'll try to pull this up
He's also played some MvCI "recently"


I also remember seeing something about him playing MvCI recently and commenting on time stone being trash.

So he's around.

I'm so glad he left Capcpom.

I wouldn't wish being a fighting game developer in this day and age on my worst enemy.

Oh damn, congrats to Combofiend!
I guess I shouldn't feel bad he isn't with Capcom anymore...

Always nice to hear good things about Combofiend. He was my favorite MvC3 player.
