yes! the voices were so good. also, if capcom has brains, they'll have multiple characters like rockman and forte...or give you the ability to use the bosses after they are defeated. megaman powered up is the most replayable megaman game ever since the bosses gave so much more variety.

Megaman 9 was recently rated by the OFLC and then right after that, a mysterious being named “The Shadow” released this information:

- Rockman 9 will feature a retro 8-bit art style, a homage to the earlier games.
- Two playable characters: Rockman and Blues (ProtoMan). Each has their own unique storylines.
- A popular belief is that RM9 will act as the ‘link’ to the events of the X Series. This is not so, The storyline DOES NOT lead into the X Series, rather it’s a ‘traditional’ plot.
- Many new characters, new Robot Masters and maybe some new supporting characters.
- Gameplay is reminiscent of Rockman 3-6.
- Online components: Leader boards and some unknown form of online play
- RM9 will be on all major home consoles: Wii, X360 and PS3. X360 and PS3 users will be able to purchase the game from their respective download services. It’s unknown how the Wii version will work, whether it will be a downloaded game or not.

The most exciting thing is the 8-bit graphics and gameplay similar to the older Megaman NES games. I’ve had about enough of these Battle Network and ZX games, so maybe Megaman 9 will restore my faith in the series.

It's too bad all those good ideas are wasted on Mega Man. Konami needs to steal them for an actual good series.

Like some sort of... fourth Contra game... you friggin' WOW-jamming disgrace. <3



I'm completely down for another Mega Man game that plays like 3, personally. Get "Yuukichan's Papa" back on that shit composing an 8-bit soundtrack.

throw in playable bosses and a level creation system. but even without those, i'm looking forward to it.

and why not just put this on ps2 if it's gonna be 2d?
