The mini-game, known as “Star Colosseum,” allows six players to […]

Well, it looks like E-Capcom has finally let the cat out of the bag as far as the Rockman.EXE Official Complete Works cover art is concerned. While the contents of the book seem very promising, the cover feels a bit underwhelming; especially when compared to the covers of all the previous Official Complete Works books. […]

Later this month, Capcom is planning on hosting an event for people to try out Rockman.EXE: Operate Shooting Star. While it seems many of us have already tried out most of the game in 2001, there will be a little new content shown at the event. No, not a new gameplay feature. Instead, I refer […]
