Legends/DASH 3 Appreciation Art Starts Rolling In
So, Mega Man Legends 3. Pretty big deal. Lots of people excited. Some crying even, I've heard. I doubt it'd be an exaggeration to say this will be perhaps the most anticipated Mega Man game for another whole 10 years. So it's no surprise that those with an artistic...

The Mega Man Olympics Confuses, Bewilders

Mega Man vs. Street Fighter
