  Marvel Super Heroes review @ www.vidgames.com
Marvel Super Heroes was animation intensive in the arcades, striving and achieving a very fluid and cartoon-comicbook appearance.
Special moves and super moves are standard fair for this generation of street fighter clones.
With all these super high jumps, combos, infinity gems, supers and special moves you would think it'd take a pretty heavy toll on the Playstation's abilities, especially with all of the animation it has to display in relation to the everchanging gameplay circumstances.

The music in MSH is fairly good and the speech is nice and crisp, unlike the Saturn version, which produced tinny, annoying sound effects.
Marvel Super Heroes, Capcom and Marvel's 1995 follow-up to 1994's X-men: Children of the Atom, is basically another clone of their groundbreaking Street Fighter II fighting engine.
Marvel Super Heroes' game storyline is roughly based upon the Marvel Comics "Infinity Gems/Infinity War" storyline where 10 of Earth's greatest heroes (and villains) seek to recover (or steal) the all-powerful Infinity Gems from the Evil Thanos of Titan, who is bent on destroying the universe with their power.

Marvel's greatest heroes and villains are transported to a synthetic world by the Beyonder, who wishes to observe good and evil in action.
The villains jump at the offer, but the heroes, of course, look for a way to get themselves and the other transported people home (the planet is a mosaic of landmasses from different planets, including a cross-section of Denver, Colorado).
Marvel's writers have explained again and again that Galactus is neither good nor evil, just a force of nature that sucks planet dry.

 Marvel Super Heroes
The graphics in Marvel Super Heroes are about as close to arcade perfection as the playstation could have accomplished with this coin-op conversion.
This is where Marvel Super Heroes comes into it's own, as the control is easy to learn and special moves are simple to execute.
In two player however the game turns into a free-for-all as you and a friend battle it out for possession of the Infinity Gems, until one is left in a crumpled heap, shouting various obscenities to all and sundry.

By employing the various preexisting Marvel super heroes they have incorporated ten uniquely individual characters that each have their own powers and traits to bring to the game.
The character's moves in Marvel Super Heroes are activated by simple D-pad movements (which are not complicated, but actually facilitate combat in their direction) in a natural configuration with one of the buttons.

 Prizm Dash - [Now with 10% more chocolate]
While games today such as the Marvel Vs Capcom series, Capcom Vs SNK series, and of course Guilty Gear X beat Marvel Super Heroes overall in the graphics category.
Marvel Super Heroes still presents itself well even today, and holds its own against those other games.
The game's graphics are in my opinion arcade perfect to the Marvel Super Heroes Arcade machine, and the characters animate nicely, specifically Blackheart, Juggernaut, and Shuma Gorath.

 Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter
Street Fighter and Marvel Super Heroes (that game was still cool, though!) is kept to a bare minimum--even though I didn't notice any, there's probably a controversial spot in the game where there IS slowdown, so I'll keep my mouth shut.
In Marvel Super Heroes, I could pull off a 10 hit air juggle with Wolverine easily, yet in X-Men vs. Street Fighter, I couldn't even get a 4 hit ground combo.
There are a few different modes, such as a Hero Battle, where the comics fight the Street Fighters, and the Cross Over mode--which enables the tag team action like in the arcade, but you have to fight the same characters that you're playing as.

That considered, though, this chart is a testament to MSH's balance IMO; other than the jump from Magneto to Hulk, no consecutive ranks are separated by more than one point (and BH, Jug, and IM are each separated by.5).
I think if people were to play MSH today, Spider-Man would drop a bit in rankings because over time people have gotten uses to blocking the air mixups better.
It's interesting how the Marvel characters evolved greatly and sacrificed moves and strategy balances at the same time, and the tiers frequently changing for every new game over the years.

 Fist - Marvel Super Heroes Classic Style
As are most terrorists and insurgents, the man known only as Fist is naught but a normal human, lacking any sort of physical alterations, magical schooling, or psionic disciplines with which to manifest super human powers.
Not seeing himself as a villain, or even a hero, per se, Fist doesn't have a specific costume to speak of.
However, while dealing with his criminal army, or even his fellow revolutionaries, he seems to wear the same basic clothing, which consists of a white pair of trousers, a white sports coat over a fl turtle neck, a pair of white leather shoes, and fl leather gloves.

The rules aren't complex, and the Marvel system is in my opinion the most enjoyable to play.
There's a newer, card-based Marvel Super Heroes system coming from TSR, but call me nostalgic; the original dice game is a classic.

This is the gravest flaw of the Marvel system and support line: its apathy about recreating the spirit of Marvel stories.
Of course, MARVEL SUPER HEROES is the only authorized source of game statistics for Marvel characters.
They must be easy, if not entertaining, to write: Read a couple hundred comics, describe all the heroes in the subject group, then their friends, major enemies, headquarters and equipment, and some back-issue history.
