I'm still a little confused about the overall direction of this title, but I'm interested.

MasterChief36245729d ago

I'm also curious what the direction is. That teaser trailer featuring all those Capcom characters had me (and actually everyone) wondering... These screenshots look like a normal Mega Man game, with a more advanced art style.

But I can't shake the feeling that I don't like this art style. Maybe I am just stuck in the past, but I much prefer the flat 2D visuals to 3D models and such.

Can't wait to hear more about it, though :D

Mastodon5729d ago

The idea here is simple:

Mix classic Megaman, Little Big Planet, and Other Capcom Universe character powers in a blender. Throw in a hint of Kirby power stealing and boom - Megaman Universe.

Supposedly you can create levels and share them with friends. Also you can gain powers like Ryu's fireball/dragon punch and Rad Spencer's bionic arm (Bionic Commando).

I was hoping for Megaman Legends 3 or something but I'll keep holding my breath.

Megaman Legends 3 would be fantastic. The first, second, and the Misadventures of Tron Bonne were my favorite games of the PS1 generation. Bubbles to you :)

ZeroX98765729d ago (Edited 5729d ago )

I'm totally interested! just think about it, this kind of game is MUCH BETTER than another battle network thing!

Judging from the gameplay video, megaman's health bar and UI is so cramped that I think there's just enough place for 3 other UI like that one, so maybe a 4 player LBP-style megafied game!!?!??!?!?!?!

MasterChief36245729d ago

I have really good memories with Mega Man Battle Network 2, especially. I suppose I'm one of the few and proud folks that actually really loves the Battle Network series still.

-Mezzo-5729d ago

NO, i don't think so, but i could be wrong.

-Mezzo-5729d ago

i am looking forward to the title myself, i have bought almost every Mega Man game so far.

Capcom's Confusion Has Killed Mega Man

Hardcore Gamer: Mega Man is dying with every passing month. Even compared to the scatterbrained Resident Evil, Mega Man is in a colossal danger zone.

What a shame -- this is one of gaming's icons for christ's sake.

Summons754325d ago

So was Devil May Cry and Resident Evil but they had no problem letting those games get ruined.

Honestly I'd rather MM stay at a peaceful rest than than risk them making a new game and it being god-awful.

ValKilmer4325d ago

DmC was the best game in the series.

GrandpaSnake4325d ago

i always thought he was like a for sure fan favorite but yeah they killed mega man i still think hes cooler than mario. imagine if nintendo would release mega man legends 3!

Godmars2904325d ago

Well, look what they did with him. After things like X, ZX, the Battle net series or MML, the best that they could consider was returning to the very original origin.

Nintendo is keeping Mega man Relevant by putting him in Smash Brothers. They do more for Mega man than Capcom. kind of sad really.

Don't forget their greed. A lot of this has to do just as much with greed.

-Foxtrot4325d ago

Honestly their IP's would do better without Capcom. I'd rather see Nintendo get the Megaman IP from them like I would like to see Sony get the Resident Evil IP.

The IP's are either wasted or ruined.

Summons754325d ago

I agree Nintendo gets Megaman, Sony gets Resident Evil, and Platinum Games gets Devil May Cry. Sony and Nintendo can duke it out for Dragon's Dogma (because I just want another one, I don't care what system it comes out on).

gantarat4325d ago

Guarantee 100 % Sony make RE Game like RE Movies

Geekman4325d ago

The gaming industry sure does like the words "Kill, Killing, Killed, and dead."

Battlefieldlover4325d ago

When was the last Mega Man game released?

crusf4325d ago

Mega Man 10(March 1, 2010)
Not too long ago for it to be considered dead.

Battlefieldlover4325d ago

ya 8bit in 2010. You got me man, alive and kicking...

luis_spartano4325d ago

Out of all my favorites franchises, Capcom owns three, and one of them is MegaMan X.

Capcom killed Resident Evil, Breath of Fire, MegaMan X. Since 2008, I promised to myself that Capcom would NEVER see a dollar from my wallet again, and so I did.

To me, Capcom could be purchased by Microsoft, 'cause being purchased by Microsoft is worse than going bankrupt.

Capcom is dead. It just need a grave.

hkgamer4325d ago

its such a shame. totally forgot about breath of fire.

does capcom hate money?

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory4325d ago

Mega Man And His Place In The Modern Era

Super PolyPixel - Capcom is a heartbreaker. They tease us with games right before snatching them away from out outstretched fingers. The Mega Man franchise has been hit especially hard, alienating many fans. Each Capcom announcement, we wait eagerly for Mega Man news only to be denied. Capcom has seemed to focus their attention to other games: Resident Evil, Remember Me, Lost Planet 3, their endless supply of HD remakes…and we are left wistful for what could have been.
