Rock On with Mega Bands

By James “GS Edgeman” Riser Music is an important variable in the equation of a good game, almost as important as graphics and game play, and the wrong type of music can easily break the immersion of a title. For example, Mega Man‘s frantic, fast paced music sets the appropriate tone for its levels. The […]

Editorial: Mega Man Must Reach for a New Paradigm

Mega Man has had a pretty tough run this year, that much is obvious. What I believe may be less obvious, however, is that the recent cancellations are a symptom of a much more troubling problem that has been deep beneath the Mega Man games for a very long time now: The series is now […]

Mega Man Double Pack on its Way to PlayStation Portable? (Updated)

Yeah, we’re a little late with this one, but it’s worth talking about just the same.

The […]
