You know they say that all demons are created equal, but you look at me and you look at Pyro Jack and you can see that statement is not true, hee-ho!
Who cares about Mega Man and Ryu? I wanna power through Mega Man levels with Arthur! Two-hit deaths and all! Only the pro-est of platforming.

I want to play as Zangief in Megaman Universe. I will piledrive everything. Lariat through the boss projectiles. Be the protector of Russia's skies.

I will pay $5 for Zangief DLC Capcom. Just Zangief.

That's crazy, what are you getting at?

I mean, how could you not appreciate the brilliance that is "The countless slain scream out in searing pain - Their souls and their ashes are all that remain!" or the see the pure emotion that must have gone into the creation of "I dance around with style and finesse - Better watch out for these blades or you’ll end up headless."?

And if you're hating on this:

"I made you in my image
I built your heart
I gave you eyes
I gave you power
A sense of justice beyond any compare
I gave you hands, a child's face
I gave you hair
ROBOTIC HAIR
But the burning in your heart I did not put there."

You can just get out. :colbert:

Hell yeah. But while they sound semi-serious and far, far too into it, Brentalfloss is tearing it up.

The Protomen kick the ever-loving poo poo out of the Megas, though, and I feel like they're wasting their talent on retelling the Megaman story.

Judging from this, "Megaman" is a new character for the game, Rockman is the traditional 8-bit one.

Rock Man is classic anime child Mega Man, whereas Mega Man has an American (and angry!) style. It's entirely a joke character, like bad boxart Mega Man.

Thanks to me stumbling on this thread, I have not been able to stop listening to that Kurogane THIRD Rockman X metal remix album for two days straight now.

I really hope the artist produces a whole album of these because they loving rock. It's weird that Spark Mandrill and Storm Eagle's (so :911:) stage song wasn't included on Kurogane's website though and everything else is. I would also love to hear him do Blaze Heatnix's stage song because the song is already so metal I don't know how he can make it even more metal.

I'm also in the camp for Megaman X. They must have done something right to grab so many people's attention when the first game came out on SNES. I can only imagine it's because X fit more of the stereotypical, American-preferred "angry" look and came out around the time when Power Rangers was getting popular and he had that whole upgrade/transform thing going on. No offense to the original Megaman because original Megaman leans more toward being a platformer and X more like a beat-em-up (short range shoot-em-up?) and I prefer the latter.

Also ironic that the tamer Megaman had all the musical themed names of "Rockman" and X had more rock music in its world full of mathematical themed names.

I've adjust the teaser image a bit.


I recognize Bombman, Flashman, Quickman, Cutman, Heatman, and Arthur; and there are also several characters I can't make out.

I'm guessing all the robot masters from Mega Man 1 and 2 are there.
Ultimately, this doesn't matter, because everyone will use Box Art Mega Man.

I'm pretty sure that the character between Megaman and Rockman on the right in the back is Bubbleman based on the feet, they look like his flippers. The rest of his visible body layout also matches the Bubbleman design.

And Dr. Wily's Amazing Technicolor Mustache, where every scene has his lip-hair in a different color. Sometimes it's got a little streak of gray! Sometimes it's black! Sometimes it's red! Sometimes it's mismatched!


How can you not love this guy? My friends and I watched it from beginning to end and this guy was both the worst and best part of the movie, beaten only by the part where Chunky Samoan Protoman punches Rave-Goer Elecman's head clean off.

EDIT: Also, Dr. Wily's acne. And the gap between his teeth you could fly a robot dog jet through. Hell, I think it'd be easier to make a list of things that aren't funny about Movie Wily. He's like some kind of fantabulous trainwreck.

On a seperate note, having Mega Man and Rockman be two seperate characters is going to make things real confusing real fast.
