Continuing from where we left off with Ice Man, we now move on to Elec Man’s Stage (and his accompanying music). We start out having to climb a few platforms guarded by Gabyoalls. While somewhat difficult, doing this here immediately lets the player know whether this is a stage they’ll want to attempt now, as […]

A new cover and solicitation have arrived for the 14th issue of Archie’s Mega Man comic book series. Click the image at the right to see the full cover, and then check out what to expect from this issue’s story, which seems to clarify some details left hanging by the last issue’s cover: Mega Man […]

Have you been picking up the monthly adventures of Mega Man from Archie Comics? If not, then this might be a good way for you to catch up. In conjunction with their monthly playthroughs of the original Mega Man series, Gregaman and Brelston have created some appreciation threads for the Blue Bomber over on Capcom […]

Mega Man may have his helmet hanged up right now, but that hasn’t stopped Dr. Wily from getting a little work. A photo from Disney’s D23 Magazine, in an article about the film Wreck-It Ralph, shows Dr. Wily among other known game villains (well, was Zangief really ever a villain?), participating with lead character Ralph […]

Canadian fans of wrestling– WWE in particular– are probably familiar with Arda Ocal (@arda_ocal on Twitter), who not only co-hosts the post-Raw and post-Smackdown show Aftermath on The Score Television Network, but also the weekly podcast version, which has developed a worldwide following. Being such a fan myself, it didn’t escape my attention when the […]

Heat Man has just passed along word that according to Famitsu, the version of Mega Man X released to the App Store is poised to receive some new updates. No word on whether this will come to the U.S. version, though we’d say it’s likely. Edit: The update is available in the US. In any […]

Over at the official Rockman Online blog, a special Valentine’s Day update has been made to which introduces two new non-player characters. More interesting is that neither of these two seem to be characters we would be familiar with. So, what’s their deal? Read on to find out, thanks to an assist from Amunshen! TMMN […]

It’s Valentine’s Day, everyone! Need a quick card for that special someone? Then fire up your printer and put together one of these handy-dandy Mega Man cards! You can thank us later. Okay, so we’re cheaping out a little bit on today’s update. We’d almost forgotten about these, until someone brought them to our attention, […]

Whew, I’m back from Tokyo. And Wonder Festival was quite the event. One thing for certain – even despite my best efforts I really wasn’t prepared for this. Even though I tried to go early I was still far back out in line, and by the time I got to the Hobby Rock booth they […]

Following our look at Guts Man’s Stage from the original NES Mega Man game(which is recommended reading if you’re new to what this is all about), we are moving on to Ice Man’s Stage (with his music, if you want the full experience). Most of the ground in this stage has the usual “ice in […]

What a great way to kick off this year of contests and Mega Man’s 25th anniversary with an Iwamoto tribute. You all stepped up and went above and beyond! Alas, there must only be one. That one would be… Fuzz Buzz! Their entry consisted of an early touching scene in the manga, of X comforting […]

You know the drill, folks: Nintendo Power magazine has posted their newest online poll, and as ever, Mega Man is being kept in the spotlight by being included among some of the poll options. In fact, there is one question solely dedicated to our hero! Blue Bomber-related questions include “Which antagonist most deserves to be […]
