I like how Jeff and Vinny (and it seemed like the other half of the room agreed), made the same exact complaints about MvC3 as I did on Super Street Fighter IV (and I've gotten nothing but thumbs down for it, BTW).   
 
Capcom is in their own little world when it comes to fighters.  Stylistic, and inviting, but nearly incomprehensible to anyone but those who already speak "fighter".

One thing that really bothers me about SSF4 is how they let you select which ultra combo you want to use, but don't show you the inputs to perform them or give any indication of what they do unless you go into the movelist during a fight. At least in SF3 the inputs were there. It's not a big deal for me, but when I try to new people into the game it's just another barrier of entry.

It's called Kumite Mode, and it was introduced years ago by Sega. 
 
No, it is not about thinking for the player, it taught the player how to THINK FOR THEMSELVES HOW.
 
@vinny: "It's a lot to take in."
 
And NO ONE, not even Alex Valle himself, did it all at once. Wise words to keep to heart. Keep the learning FUN!

I kind of agree with their discussion about how fidelity matters less for kids playing Kinect, and while that's true to a certain degree, I think the software needs to be good enough.
 
Kids would be fucking infuriated by any 'RIDER MEET HORSE, HORSE MEET RIDER' moment too. Kids will not cotton to that shit.

@Roomrunner: Oh, god I agree.   One day and I'm already  ready to throw in the towel on MvC3.   The damn game is just so frustrating if your not a guy is already good at fighters.    And so many little things they could have done to make it so much better.

Duke Nukem is such a Reagan era anachronism...I'm not sure this going to even make sense contextually.  It might be interesting if he was presented as more of a fish out of water in the modern world.

Hyperdimension Neptunia came out.  It just got delayed due to bad weather from where they were shipping it.

I had the Bobmcast playing and left the room. When I returned, the first thing I heard was: "Being on fire feels a lot less powerful."
 
Quite frankly, that's all I need to know about anything in life.
 
Also: Pardonne mon Français, Ryan.

WELL, CONSIDERING THAT THEY HAD YESTERDAY OFF, THEY ARE PROBABLY RECORDING TODAY and damn capslock producing right now, so I imagine that the bombcast probably won't show up until msuper late... 
 
still can't see what I'm typing, I hate IE8...

Can't you just use portable FireFox, or is that disabled too? Makes me happy I can just do whatever on the computer when I am at work.

@UncleBenny:  Does pulling the resizer thing in the bottom right of the text window not make your text appear again? I get that issue all the time in Firefox.
