The Bosses of Mega Man 9

We detail three of the boss characters in the game with new info and screens.August 11, 2008

- Picking up in the franchise's timeline, in Mega Man 9 robot riots have sprung up all over the world. While many believe this to be the work of the evil Dr. Wily, Mega Man's creator Dr. Light is stunned to see many of the rioting robots are his own creation. Suddenly, Dr. Wily appears on TV claiming Dr. Light as the evil mastermind behind the attacks and appeals to viewers to help fund his campaign against Dr. Light and the rogue robots. Certain of Dr. Light's innocence Mega Man sets out to stop the riots and unravel the truth behind the attacks. Of course, along the way the Blue Bomber will have to do battle with a variety of (difficult) bosses, three of which we've detailed below. To complement today's article, we've included exclusive new artwork and screenshots, all of which can be seen in great supply in our media section.

 

Concrete Man:
Created to construct a dam, Concrete Man has integral knowledge of the process and the tools to make it happen. He has stubborn personality and has been known to tell off any lazy robots. Stupid, lazy robots.

Weapon: Concrete Shot
Creates a temporary foothold as soon as it touches the ground. It can also be used to stop enemies in their tracks.

 

Tornado Man:
Works for the Weather Manipulation Office to help control and stop the formation of large storms all over the world.

Weapon: Tornado Blow
Launches a huge tornado that covers the entire game area. Heavy enemies will take damage, but lighter ones will be blown entirely off-screen.

 

Magma Man:
Magma Man serves as the safety control robot at a large geothermal power plant. He is able to work in incredibly hot environments and loves to visit hot spas.

Weapon: Magma Bazooka
Shoots a cluster of fireballs that spread out after launching. It can also be charged by holding down the shot button.

Concrete man... Can flooded engine man be far behind?


Looks awesome! It'll be the second Megaman game I've ever played after the first gameboy game.



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do. 

Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

will be my first wiiware purchase! when is it coming to wiiware again?



Any idea when is coming out??? I wanna try it so bad!!!! Looks like the good old times r coming back!!! I would love a new Super Metroid like the one for SNES



I love the creativity they are showing behind the bosses, all of them look absolutely fantastic. I can't wait to fight them, I'm just hoping wily's bosses or the end bosses at the final levels will be just as creative and fun to fight.

Just throw in ridiculous amounts of Protoman/Blues in the game and I'm a happy camper.

Oh who do I kid? I'm a happy camper anyway.



Why must JRPG female leads suck so bad?

I want this soooo bad.

Next on my wish list from Capcom is Mega Man Legends 3.
