Rumor: Rockman.EXE Operate Shooting Star Packshot Revealed

Heat Man terrorizes the UK in Gamesmaster
You have to admit, as cheesy as they were, old videogame shows from the 80s and 90s were way cool. It's a shame that today gaming is much too "sophisticated" for stuff like that (unless you live in Japan, where you have the awesome Game Center CX). One such show from...

“Anything Else You Need to Know?”

Now is the time to make our voices heard, Mega Fans! GameSpot is holding a GameFAQs-ish contest (which is apt, given the former owns the latter) to determine who the "All Time Greatest Video Game Hero" is. Round 1 is going on as of this writing, and the Blue Bomber...
Mega Man 3 Has the Power… Video Power
Now here's an interesting blast from the past: Video Arcade, the television show hosted by one "Johnny Arcade." It began as a video game tips and previews/reviews show which would bookend a Captain N-esque cartoon starring various characters from Acclaim-published NES...
Mega Man Marathon 2: Going on Now!
Sorry I didn't update about this sooner, folks; the 500 Internal Server Errors have been most prohibitive in getting anything done. Nonetheless, the second Mega Man Marathon we mentioned previously is going on as we speak (they appear to be on Mega Man X at Launch...
Mega Man 2 – Wily Stage 1 in A Cappella
