I know that MVC1 only has 22 characters overall, and MVC2 has 56, but I really do prefer the first ones play system.I think that the sequel relies too much on Strikers and overwhelming the opponent.

Okay... when I was first playing MvC2, I thought it was the best vs. game ever, after I got over using only 2 punch/kick buttons.
But now, after everything has settled and all of the MvC2 infinities have been discovered, I have to say that I like the first game more.
MvC1
+ Awesome roster.
- Could have used more characters instead of the swap-palette secret chars, with the exception of Roll, but does anyone actually use her? Come on....
+ Limited special partners, and intersting ones at that; Anita, for example.
+ Music for each character.
+ A much tougher final boss.
+ Individual character endings.
MvC2
+ 56 characters!! What do you want??
- Some characters weren't given enough attention. Sentinel, for example.
- Characters that are simply too weak. Dan, for example.
+ The 3-D backgrounds look great, although they don't feature anything terribly interesting.
+ I for one *like* the music.
- No individual character endings.
---------- INFINITIES! I HATE THEM!
++++++++++ Morrigan's new winning animation, where she changes into bondage gear, and Lilith is lowered from the top of the screen while cuffed to a chain. This is the best thing I have ever seen in a video game.
