Frank West revealed for UMvC3 Gameplay Videos & my take

Don't yell at me, I never played TvC, so I don't know how Frank West played in that game. I do like what I see in the Ultimate though. Lookin' like a vintage Jill Valentine from MvC2. She was one of my favorite characters in that game. Will I like Frank?

Well he's not like Jill from MvC2 at all. He's got a shopping cart and uses Zombies to assist him, but Frank West is another extremely unique character in Ultimate. He levels up during the match, I'm not talking about his super meter, I'm talking about his character and moves. This is pretty cool, for example one of your regular hits is a golf club that you have to pretty close to your opponent to hit. When you level Frank up during the match that same move will become a long stick with a chainsaw attached to it, that you can hit from across the screen. Totally awesome looking, immediately thoughts of badass nice tournament matches popped into my head. Can't wait for EVO(little hypefest there.) 

Frank levels up by taking pictures, the more pics you take of different poses of your enemy, the faster Frank levels up. Zombie assist. This is really where I trying to make the Jill reference work, but it doesn't. Anyway, Frank can send Zombies at his foes. He can also pick the Zombie up by its legs and 360 swing them into his opponent. It's awesome too and I'm super excited about Ultimate Marvel VS Capcom. Check out Frank West.

Ryu dressed as Ken, FnJimmy is gonna love that. I also forget to mention that Frank can have drink while he's fighting, but be careful, drink too much and the man will get sick. X-factor anti-air super? Fuck it.

Looks cool, I have very little interest in using him though. Is it me or are people not really using assists very much in these?

okay, it's official: HE'S TOTALLY FREAKIN' DIFFERENT FROM WHAT I REMEMBER IN TvC!!!!

throwing zombies, chainsaw supers, and shopping cart for a super!? This is a nice new way for Frank West to be represented in UMvC3 when compared to his TvC appearance. At least his Lvl 3 super is nostalgic to me (freakin' servebot head to giant swing, and then finishing it with a takedown).
