The Mega Man X8 Crew Move Their Bodies to the Beat
Jan 21, 2009 | Community Developments
Ah, such strangeness the internet brings. I'm more used to seeing variations on Lucky Star or The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, but this is a new one on me. Apparently, this one-- the newest thing?-- is called the "NewS CM dance," and is gaining popularity as a video...
Mega Man 9 Collectible Press Kit Update
Jan 21, 2009 | Mega Man
It seems like it has been forever since Capcom initially opened its doors for a very quick sellout of their Mega Man 9 collectible promotional press kits. However, in spite of a lengthy wait, there are still those who are without, wondering what happened to their...

Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X Staff Review (Heat Man)
Jan 18, 2009 | Reviews
Overview: Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X is a dream come true for the hardened X fan; well, possibly. There are some who feel its placement on the Sony PSP as opposed to the Nintendo DS is a stab to the series' roots. I'll bring that up later, though. If you are a big...
Legendary Rockman (and Mega Man) Commercials
Jan 17, 2009 | Articles
Since Heat Man decided to take us on a trip back in time with the commercials for the original Rockman games in Japan, I did want to say (as I often do whenever the opportunity affords itself) that there is a single Mega Man advertisement which I think did a very...
Classic Rockman commercials
Jan 17, 2009 | Mega Man
I don't mean to sound like a Japanophile or anything, but the commercials Capcom of Japan produces for the Rockman games are so much cooler than the ones we occasionally get in the west. I was always a big Mega Man fan, but if I'd seen these commercials as a kid...

MegaMan Legends 2 Fan Review (theory C)
Jan 16, 2009 | Reviews
by theory C In 1998, MegaMan Legends changed everything you thought you knew about the iconic Blue Bomber. No longer were you limited to two dimensions, no longer did you get to choose your levels in the order you liked, no longer were jumping and shooting the only...
MegaMan Legends Fan Review (theory C)
Jan 16, 2009 | Reviews
by theory C MegaMan Legends is not your typical MegaMan fare. At long last, Capcom has given the blue robot a new direction, entering him into the realm of 3D. And unlike past MegaMan titles, this isn't a shoot 'em up; this is as pure an action/adventure/RPG as you're...

A Classic Rockman Take On Iris’ Death
Jan 14, 2009 | Community Developments
Dramatic death scenes aren't limited to just Zero and Iris in X4. Check out this Rockman 9 parody of the scene, with Blues mourning the loss of Splash Woman. I have to say, I'm impressed by the quality of the art here. The video maker got the classic Rockman style...

Zero & Iris: Special Edition
Jan 14, 2009 | Community Developments, Mega Man
Remember when George Lucas decided to gussy up all those old Star Wars movies with modern day polish, special effects, and new footage, effectively ruining them in the eyes of many fans? Well, this isn't quite as bad as all that, namely because the anime cutscenes in...
