    Well, pretty much. It's not being developed in Japan, and it's not exactly canon, but it looks a million times better than Mega Man Xover. >_>

    Street Fighter x Mega Man

    It's meant to close out SF's 25th and kick off Mega Man's 25th anniversaries, and while it's PC only, it's going to be a free download via Capcom Unity. It seems like it was a fan project that caught the attention of some of Capcom USA's execs, and it's gradually become an official Capcom game. Regardless of how good/bad it is, I'm not passing up a free MM game... and it's coming out on the 17th of this month.

    Still not a full apology for what they've done to MM over the last two years, but it's a start. This is Mega Man, not that iOS cash grab junk.

    When I saw the title I thought it might have been another fighting game but this actually looks great.

    Cool. I still want an official canon game though and while I'd love for some flashy current gen graphics I'd settle for 16 bit level or greater.

    It's a Mega Man game where the 8 Robot Masters are actually 8 Street Fighter characters. You're Mega Man, you get their powers, etc.

    No, it's still fan-made. Capcom USA's Senior VP and some people at Capcom Unity just really liked it, so they pulled some strings behind the scenes, pumped some money to said fans and handled QA.

    Dec. 17 is the key date here... it's PC only because there were no hurdles to clear, and it was that day in 1987 that Rockman was released in Japan. That's also the same day that they've said they'll make some announcements about the 3DS e-shop, and it's the same day that another fan project that I've got my eye on will get a demo.

    Awesome piece of fan tribute. Shame it is PC only though.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    "For evil men account those things alone evil which do not make men evil; neither do they blush to praise good things, and yet to remain evil among the good things they praise. It grieves thems more to own a bad house than a bad life, as if it were man's greatest good to have everything good but himself."

    Ah, pity. A game made by Megaman haters would have been right up my alley.
