Critical Gamer writes: Mega Man Universe is supposed to be a celebration of one of the most enduring icons in gaming history. Until now we had only heard rumors or seen brief teaser trailers of the game, but at TGS 2010 it was finally unveiled to the world. At this admittedly very early stage, it seems very much like a traditional Mega Man game but with a new graphical twist. Famitsu has just released footage demonstrating the level editor and character customization content, but from the demo available at the show it seems that the game at least will play and control very much as it has done for over twenty years.
Don't you wish Capcom still made new Mega Man games? This article focuses on how the Blue Bomber can be reimagined for the current console generation.
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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
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).
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.
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.
the last megman games i recently played were the ones on the ds where you could transform into the bosses and stuff that was fun
Y'know, Mega Man was one of those games I always loved the look of but never actually played...
Love Mega Man and can't wait for Universe awesome preview
I like the sound of user created content. That is one way of adding longevity to a game without any hassle to the developers, bar censoring the odd penis shaped level!
