“Everything Wrong is Right Again”

Just wanted to pass along word of an interesting article by Jeremy "Toastyfrog" Parish, as he looks at the upcoming Mega Man 9 and points out the merits of the return to 8-bit, and how it may very well be a good thing for the industry at large.

Victims of success

You may have had a bit of trouble accessing MMN in the past few days. It appears we're still getting traffic ever since having unleashed Mega Man 9 upon the world, and the server is having a hard time accounting for all the added activity. We're hoping this is...

Well... Kind of. Apparently, Dr. Wily has taken over their site, but allowed the community forum to stay in tact. Those lucky devils... Anyway, if you were wondering about them, you're welcome. They plan on making a comeback soon, keep an eye on them.

Wily Does It Himself

Despite the fact I'm a superbly funny guy, I don't get into jokey internet videos too much, especially game-related ones. Today however, I came across "The Last Days Of Dr. Wily," which I think is not only funny but very well written and acted. Considering the fairly...

Crisis Averted!

As you may have noticed, The Mega Man Network is no longer active. Due to some large TMMN staff losses including Lord Black Draco, TheDivine, Sylvester, and RockNRoll, it was agreed to reconvert every ounce of data under the Atomic Fire name. Come back often, since...

Another Dose of Music-y Goodness

Because I know you folks can never get enough. For starters, we have game rips from Mega Man 7 and Mega Man 8 (the Saturn version). These are meant to compliment the original soundtracks that were released late last year. In addition to those we also put up the game...

Music from the Air Waves

It's been a little while, hasn't it? Well you music-hungry folks can sit back, because Splashman has provided the Ryuusei no Rockman 1&2 official soundtrack in our Music Archive. Of course this replaces the earlier game rips of those titles, which is sad sure, but...
