Star Force 3 off the air in Europe?

The Fathers of Mega Man
It's Father's Day, a time to acknowledge, admire, and appreciate the paternal figures in one's life. And as it happens, the Mega Man franchise is chock-full of such figures. In fact, just about anyone with "Dr." in their names pretty much counts! So join us as we look...
For those of you in Japan…
While cruising the Japanese PlayStation Store from my PS3 earlier, I noticed a curious advertisement about the forthcoming release of Rockman 9... More about this after the jump. It seems there's some sort of "present campaign" as the banner indicates. It's for a...
Mega Man shirt up for a vote at Split Reason
Split Reason, an apparel site for "geeks and gamers," as they put it, is letting viewers vote on a Mega Man themed design candidate for potential production. Saying "Happens to the best of us," this design really does capture the feeling we all tend to come across now...

Capcom Europe has an interesting contest going on right now. One lucky entrant will win a costume of Mega Man from the Mega Man Battle Network series. Produced for promotional purposes, Capcom attests that it's the only one of its kind in Europe, perhaps the world....
Following Black Ace, here’s a nice Red Joker trailer
Last week we showed off a trailer for Mega Man Star Force 3: Black Ace. Now you can enjoy the Red Joker version! It's pretty much the same fare, as Mega Man shows off his Red Joker skills against an assortment of bosses. And of course more voice acting samples. Are...
Capcom promotes MT Framework 2.0
It's probably not a well known fact that the same engine family has powered most Capcom games of the current generation. However, when you hear Keiji Inafune, thoughts instantly run to Mega Man, Onimusha, Dead Rising and Lost Planet. Well, MT Framework has already...

New Line of Mega Man Figures Coming Soon?
The above image is what greets visitors to the Jazwares website and click on the part of the left sidebar which reads "New Line of Figures" under the Mega Man brand tag. Sadly, further details are few and far between, with only the following statement accompanying the...
Mega Man is not hardcore
The following is an opinion piece by one member of our staff, and doesn't necessarily reflect the opinion of The Mega Man Network as a whole. On the other hand, it doesn't necessarily mean some of us don't agree, either. Which is which? Well, that's just our little...
Robot Hall of Fame Induction GET?
Almost. Mega Man is almost on his way to becoming a member of the Robot Hall of Fame. As much as I like Bender, and as much as I think Data should be higher up, we're here for one reason, and one reason only. ... So while we're waiting for Legends 3, let's get Mega...
GameDaily Names Mega Man as One Game Which Was Better in 2D

A sign of Mega Man Legends 3? *Updated*
File this one under curiously hopeful. Gaming news site N4G has listings for Mega Man Legends 3 under both PlayStation 3 and XBox 360. I'm not much a traverser of N4G myself so I'm not sure how these things pan out there, but then again recall how Mega Man 9 began...
