A playthrough of the boss Galactus in the PC/Steam version of Capcom’s Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3.

A HUGE thanks to the user Demon Scorp for helping me with this. He’s a great guy, and he’s helped me before with a number of games in the past, most notably Tekken 7, but he recently informed me that there was a way to make Galactus work in UMVC3’s arcade mode, and even provided the files to help me do so, so give him a thanks if you see him in the comments. Once the files are in place, Galactus can be used with arcade mode with little problem, although the boss fight against Galactus himself…well, it’s not a pretty sight. Not as bad as the Unknown mirror match in Tekken Tag 1, but still pretty bad.

Not much else to really say about Galactus here; the only noteworthy thing I show here is that some of his attacks can be cancelled into each other, and really easily too, which only adds to how incredibly cheap he is.

Also, users UltraZeroX7 and The Commentator, who are long time commenters by this point and who both often provide some really interesting insight into the titles I’m covering, made some really interesting comments in the last video (1055) that I’d recommend checking out. Possibly the most interesting thing that UltraZero pointed out was that Galactus Mode in UMvC3 was actually inspired by a rom hack of X-Men vs. Street Fighter where Apocalypse was playable. Amazing to see something like that come full circle.

And that’s about it, really. I’m not sure if a playthrough of this is even really worthwhile, what with Galactus already being playable in the game anyway, but for a giant boss he’s pretty fun to play as so I can’t knock it. At this point in the archive, just being able to go to town with a boss again reminds me of the fun I had with the earliest vids in this series.

Demon Scorp also gave the codes necessary to play as the unplayable gold herald variants of the characters you fight against in Heralds mode. I’m not really a costumes guy, so I don’t plan to cover them here, but I might eventually do a vid on them on my Requests channel.

Next up, it’s time to actually get onto MvC Infinite.
