Month: December 2012

As part of our celebration of the Mega Man series hitting its 25th anniversary, we are featuring a look back at many of the games of the Classic series. For this entry, I’ll be looking Mega Man 10, a great game that came after a really great game. It is hard to define what elements guarantee a universally loved Mega […]

Continuing the Worlds Collide hype, IGN sits down for a short interview with Ian Flynn and Paul Kaminski on the coming together of Archie’s “Worlds Collide” concept, and what the future may hold for other crossovers. See the interview over here. You can also check out the first issue’s cover and its variants, as well […]

“I wish I had never invented that infernal time machine… it’s brought nothing but trouble.” -Dr. Emmett Brown, Back to the Future Part III —————————– Aw, dammit. I just finished up writing the review for issue #19, and what should hit my doorstep but December’s issue?! I thought I’d have a chance to rest on my laurels […]

In case the 40 minutes of gameplay footage wasn’t enough to whet your appetite for Street Fighter X Mega Man before the release on December 17th, Kotaku has posted a new interview with Capcom USA Senior Vice President Christian Svensson and the game’s creator, Seow Zong Hui. In the interview, Seow sheds some light on […]

The cool folks at Capcom Unity live streamed Street Fighter X Mega Man earlier (not to mention are giving us the game, too). But in case you missed it, here’s the recap recording where you can see it all, or see it all again as the case may be! Of course, with the game on […]

Over at Destructoid, there is a full preview going on for the newest issue of Archie’s Mega Man comic, #20, which hits stores on December 12th. They talk with writer Ian Flynn about the story, “Rock of Ages,” which skips ahead in the series’ chronology a bit and brings us the printed page debut of […]

We just got word of this video recording of the Archie Comics panel from the New York Comic-Con which took place earlier this year, and while most of this stuff is old news by now, we wanted to share it here for those interested. If you’re looking for the Mega Man-centric part of the half-hour […]

For being a “social RPG,” Rockman Xover isn’t terribly too social, to be honest. Yeah you can send friend requests, but even then those “friends” just appear in your battles as AI controlled drones. Other games of similar nature have features like messaging and even creating groups or teams. However, it appears Rockman Xover is […]

To those interested in the expanded version of the classic R20: Rockman & Rockman X Official Complete Works, here’s a little taste of what to expect. Rockman Unity has posted some sample images of new bonus artwork by various contributors, as well as a little content coming from Mega Man 9 and Mega Man 10. […]

Following this past weekend’s reveal of Street Fighter X Mega Man and the subsequent article from IGN, Destructoid has gone on the offensive by delivering a one-two punch of features about the upcoming clash between the World Warriors and the Blue Bomber. The first article is a hands-on preview which reveals all sorts of tantalizing […]

As part of our celebration of the Mega Man series hitting its 25th anniversary, we are featuring a look back at many of the games of the Classic series. For this entry, I’ll be looking Mega Man 9, the best 1988 game released in 2008. Once upon a time there was a site called Pixelboy’s […]
