The MvC2 artwork means absolutely nothing, hell, this isn't the first time people confuse the PSN/XBLA release artwork as some sort of confirmation for this game.

You must be stupid if you dont think that's not MVC2 artwork. Same style.
You do know that about each character has 5 artworks.
Some of the people at Capcom don't even know certain things about their own games. So if a fan can't tell the difference between artwork between games they did not make, it makes them stupid?
I wouldn't go that far dude.
Are the pictures that Theonly I posted in fact from MvC2? The original art work for part 2 has a more cartoon-ish/comic hand drawn style. The artwork I posted (if you see it in person) has a "looks like it was painted" kind of style. The artwork for the PSN & XBL release is a neither of the two. If the style that we posted is indeed from MvC2, all you had to do show us the other characters in MvC2 that were drawn
in that same style (Ruby Heart for example) to prove your point. So either it is or it isn't.
Methinks it's just used as a place-holder, until the entire roster is confirmed. After all, MvC3 does use a brand-new art style.
It could be a place holder that they put in the MvC3 booth just to [tornado fang] with people minds, but even if something is confirmed it can still change and be removed AFTER it's been confirmed as the game is not exactly near being finalized. Capcom is infamous for this. Just look at all the beta/alpha stuff for every single resident evil game made. I keep track of these thing because I love seeing beta stuff that's different from the final.
I didn't even know that artwork was there until the Capcom guys told me about it. So I went to the IGN booth at took pictures.
