IGN writes: "We got to take the latest Mega Man action RPG for a spin at Capcom's recent Captivate event, and it's looking very similar to the first Mega Man Star Force. Whether or not that's a good thing depends on if you're happy with the direction the Blue Bomber has been headed in of late. These aren't the classic platformers we grew up with. These are reinventions of the franchise that cast the player as a young boy who has the ability to turn into Mega Man.
Star Force 2 will be available in two versions: Zerker X Ninja and Zerker X Saurian. They both offer a different powered-up version of Mega Man and its own special attack, as well as the Zerker form. Zerker gives Mega Man an enormous lightning sword; Ninja boosts his speed and gives him shurikans; Saurian gives him blazing fists.
The game picks up two months after the last one left off, with our hero Geo settling back into his routine after saving the universe. Of course, a mysterious new enemy named Rogue soon appears and Geo and his buddy Omega-Xis must combine to become Mega Man again."
411mania talks about this week's game releases. Highlights include BlazBlue, Hatsune Miku: Project Diva, Diabolik, Treasure World, Street Fighter IV PC, and Roogoo.
Have you ever imagined what it would be like if your favorite video game characters grew up and went to school together? PWN or DIE has, and the way they picture it is much like their own experiences growing up. There would be pep rallies and proms, jocks and nerds, and of course yearbooks.
For a third-party multiplatform publisher and developer, Capcom has enough popular franchises to create their very own video game system.
For me,as much as I enjoyed classics like RE series,Dino Crisis series,Dmc series,etc etc,I think Okami is the best game Capcom has ever produced,unfortunately it bombed,the team is gone and there won't be any sequel
*sigh*
its not their fault. Capcom completely ditched them. They are now known as platinum games (making mad world, bayonetta etc..). Sega owns them now. And I agree that Okami is probably in my top 3 capcom games. Next to RE2 and RE4 of of course.
and the best capcom characters are Leon Kennedy and Albert Wesker. Dont dispute the facts.
Megaman is the only franchise I like from Capcom. Hopefully, they make a new one soon.
i can understand how resident evil, street fighter, and megaman may be in their top franchises but i don't understand how devil may cry and phoenix wright could be included and not monster hunter. obviously an article written based on opinion and not facts.
