Fixed the Konami Releasing Mege Man Mistake

Lol well I know it's your guessing but some of it is very stupid lol. The mgs4 goes to 360 really made me laugh :)

Some of them are okay but I disagree with many.

the one that bothers me is you think MAG will be cancelled. Its being made by Zipper, the company that brought us SOCOM. I doubt they will cancel it. If it was some small company nobody has heard of I'd agree.

hahaha. well what can i say. good luck is in order

I can honestly say with 100% certainty that Konami will not publish a new Mega Man game.... mostly because the IP is owned by Capcom.
