Community Gouki and Taskmaster Marvel vs Capcom 3 Video Reveals

Gouki and Taskmaster officially confirmed for all the naysayers even though they were leaked previously by someone working on the comic and in a game preview website.

LOL Steven Blum is the voice of Taskmaster. If you didn't know he does a lot of voicework for animes and games. Some examples are Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo. I didn't know he's 45. Here's a wiki if you want to know more about the roles he has done. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Blum

Taskmaster looks like a solid new character with a bunch of moves that include a reflect fireball sword slash, Spiderman's Web Swing kick attack, Captain America's Stars and Stripes uppercut move as his Air Combo Launcher, and Captain America's Charging Stars attack. He looks like he can play keepaway with his arrow shots, whack you around with combos, and appears to have a counter super as he catches Haggar during his jumping splash attack. Taskmaster's theme sounds pretty good too.

Gouki's super Fireball, Mesatsu Hadouken, isn't just a beam anymore and now shoots a crapload of fireballs at you. On the other hand, Gouki's air fireball super has changed into a beam version similar to Ryu's angled downward. He has his demon flip move as well. Unsurprisingly, his level 3 Super is his Raging Demon with new effects plus with the bonus of what appears to be projectile invincibility as he just charges right in to grab Doctor Doom during his Photon Array super.

Who will you choose in Marvel vs Capcom 3? Akuma or Taskmaster?

According to EuroGamer both of these characters are unlockable fighters. Akuma is unlocked after reaching 2,000 player points, Taskmaster 8,000

Seems to me like a great way to unlock characters.

EuroGamer also states that you can earn roughly 2,000 pp in one single playthrough of Arcade, as well as playing multiplayer.

Taskmaster will be one of my new mains. No doubt about it. He reminds me of Spider-Man, Captain America, and Dante. I'm all for it. Now I don't need to waste my time 3 characters I can have just one.

Fixed your links Jimmy! I've learned from experience that people hate not being able to just click on a link. Copy and Paste went out the window in the late '90s lol.

Great Story none the less. Thanks for posting!

Also if you notice in the Akuma reveal there seems to be a Dr. Doom look alike, possibly a Sub-Boss or something!

Both of these characters look great. Gouki of course. The Taskmaster looks WAAAAY cooler than I expected. Very exciting about this.

Good post Shenwoo - way to not be a Jimmy.

Also Steven Blum is the same Jimmy from Bulletstorm and Wolverine in Hulk VS. This Jimmy thinks he's the new Nathan Drake.

Nolan North is also the voice of Deadpool so you have your Nate Drake voice fix too.
