Forums - Gaming - Where is Megaman this gen?

It's too bad that all the old games seem to be getting new versions, even bionic commando (which is awesome), but you never hear about megaman.

They could do a prime type thing, a mario 64 type thing, or an old school but with awesome graphics type thing.  also it would sell.

Why is this game not out, and not seeming to be coming?

(i know megaman 9, but you know what i mean, a true new next gen game)



Last year's game of the year turned out to be Silent Hill : Shattered Memories (online GOTY was COD 6).  This year's GOTY leader to me is Heavy Rain.

Megaman is chilling out on the DS with his other platforming peeps.



Mega Man 9 is the true "next gen" thing. I couldn't ask for a better game from them. I really hope they make Mega Man 10 using the exact same engine with just different weapons and levels.

You do know they had a 3D mega man (Mega Man 64) and it sucked so bad. Why switch the gameplay when the 2D platform method works extremely well.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

Would you believe that I've been playing video games for 20 years, and I've NEVER played a Mega Man game?


Maybe they're putting off on making a new Mega Man game for the HD/Wii so that they can build anticipation for his return. It's kind of hard to get excited about a series that has a new entry every few months.



Would you rather have a sublime game like Megaman 9 or something along the lines of any new Sonic game?

Games aren't "next-gen" or better just because they're in 3D or updated graphics.

Well it looks like D21Lewis has had is gamer card revoked. 

Jokes aside, I'm still burned out from Megaman. I have been for years. I wouldn't mind a something the X universe though. No more EXE, Zero, ZX, etc.



Eh, i see where he's coming from, but it would be hard for them to develop a Megaman that can effectively compete in the modern gaming world (though making it Wii-centric might help), without doing something to bastardize the franchise

 

They're relegating Megaman to nostalgia mode, but it seems to be working quite well.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Not necessarily X, but something with gameplay along the lines of X would be nice for me.

My complaint is that the franchise has become cluttered with garbage spinoffs.

 



Yeah I agree completely WoW. The only spinoff I really liked was in the X universe. I thought Megaman X Command Mission was pretty good. Surprisingly so actually.



I'd prefer Mario 64 type thing.
