by Erico “Hold out baits to entice the enemy. Feign disorder, and crush him.” –Sun Tzu, The Art of War ——————————– And why is Dr. Light a boy scout? Because he was prepared. More on that as the plot develops. Now, then. When we left off in Issue 7, Mega Man was staring down the […]

The folks at Capcom have made a lot of murmurings about plans in the works to celebrate Mega Man‘s 25th anniversary. However, that doesn’t mean you should go expecting some amazing new game (though a number of fans have regardless). When questioned about what’s going on, Capcom’s Christian “Sven” Svensson made this response: […] In […]

By Erico Having come face to face with CWU-01P, Mega Man and his two companions must now put an end to it. It’s a simple-minded thing; it doesn’t understand that the first Robot Rebellion is over.

Here’s something a little bit interesting. A scant three weeks ago, Capcom filed a trademark for “Mega Man” in the US. What could this Mega Man thing be? What do they have up their sleeve? Of course, in all seriousness, it’s not that they never had “Mega Man” trademarked before. It’s common to make multiple […]
