Marvel Vs Capcom 2 is an insane beat 'em up featuring a total of 56 characters, including childhood heroes such as Spiderman and the Incredible Hulk.

This game pushes the Dreamcast to its limits with lightning-fast animation and stunning backdrops.

It is a familiar game scenario - hit anything which moves - but what gives it a twist is its crazy tag-team three-on-three fighting.

You can select three of your favourite characters and then during the fight you can switch them to best match their strengths against the opposition.

However, the relentless onslaught of psychedelic special effects and wacky characters can be pretty exhausting after a while.

The controls need time too master but there is a training mode to help you.

Marvel Vs Capcom 2 is easily the best-looking 2D fighter around for the Dreamcast but it exists in an age of stunning 3D fighters such as Capcom's slick Soul Calibre.
