I have grown tired of them putting off Megaman for so long. It's absolutely ridiculous. Capcom needs to get its shit together and get some Megaman games out there.

Yeah seriously, it's been too long since I've played a new MM game. Starforce wasn't really all that compared to battle network...

I've never been a big fan for Capcom. However, I did get into the Megaman Legends series, and when I heard about MML3 coming, I couldn't help but feel sheer joy. Enough that I would have actually bought a 3DS for. (Which I haven't, thank God. >_>) But now, after this outrage, I'm simply just not going to partake in anything involving Capcom now. It's sad, that businesses have resorted to these methods. Not only do I feel bad for all the fans of Megaman Legends, but I feel bad for those in the development team who wanted to see this through. It's a shame, really.

Yeah, the development time I feel really sorry for too. Especially when, i believe, the planning director said on twitter that he supported the fan movement but couldn't really say anything otherwise due to conflict of interest. you could tell those guys were fans of the series. :/

capcom is really doing some shady stuff. Although, SF3rd Strike online is a great gift for the people who wanted that, and I'm sure there's many of them.

I share your pain with this news. I love the Mega Man franchise and am sad to see it in this state.

hopefully they will turn it around soon... and I sincerely hope they won't "reinvent" megaman into a super realized FPS or something to appeal to other audiences.

I personally have been appalled at Capcom's actions as well. Throwing its fans under the bus. And in a recent interview, when Gamespot's correspondent asked why the blatant ignorance of fan pics he totally throws Marvel under the bus saying, "Who knows why Marvel likes the characters they like." OUTRAGEOUS. But sadly that is what marketing and trade-showing has become today. Everyone will keep buying UMvC3 and while I respect those that like it, I feel they forget that there are other, perhaps larger fan bases being destroyed.

Yeah Capcom's PR is really doing questionable things as of late, saying things that are easily, as they would call it, 'misinterpreted' and causing a backlash.

I won't be buying UMvC3 though. maybe used, cuz then they wont get any money from it lol. but yeah i agree, it's great for the people who eat this stuff up, there's a reason there's ANOTHER Street Fighter IV release coming next year, but everyone else (darkstalker fans, phoenix wright fans, mega man fans, monster hunter fans) are all given the finger.

Now NT, I respect you as a person and I respect your music and also some of your opinions, but I will disagree with you on one point.

First of all, I don't have an opinion on MML, seeing as I've never played any of the games.

But you keep referring to "that DmC abomination" or words to that effect, and you're giving it very little to no credit at all.

First of all, the gameplay trailer from E3 looked bitching. I want to play this game now, regardless of CullenDante.

Second of all, capcom has indeed stated that they knew from the very beginning that people would hate the look of CullenDante, and said that they're doing that because it's an Origin Story. If you watch the gameplay trailer, you see that Dante's hair goes white when he goes into what seems to be Devil Trigger.

Sincerely,
-Jman650

Well, it's not necessarily Dante I'm worried about.

1: It's running on Unreal Engine, which means it's 30fps, while the other DMC games ran on 60fps because it's a very fast paced action game.

2: The developers have little to no experience building [rich] combat systems. While I liked Heavenly Sword and Enslaved, they can't hold a candle to the kind of crazy stuff you can do in Devil May Cry. Look at any 'combomad' video on Youtube and you'll get the idea. This sort of thing is really hard to perform on 30fps.

3: The general design of the enemies and locations don't match the Devil May Cry theme at all, but that's just my opinion.

4: The gameplay looked really weird and janky in the E3 trailer. You could tell it tried to be Devil May Cry, but you and I both know it won't be a devil may cry game.

The reason I don't like it, is because it's not a devil may cry game. It's a game that tries to appeal to other audiences to create bigger sales. Capcom's actions towards fans (or rather Tameem) saying "I don't care" about fans' opinions about the game didn't help either.

Now, I don't mind that other people like it, I'm all for it, but I can't stand the look or sound of it at all. DMC didn't need a reboot this bad. Capcom also doesn't know what the game is supposed to be anyway, at the beginning they said it had nothing to do with the original series, that it was a side-thing. Then it was an origin story, and then back to the original statement.

Dante's hair going white in the trailer doesn't fix any problems, and I find it insulting that Ninja Theory would think so. xD

But again, no worries, I respect the fact you like how it's turning out. <3

this is just sad. i loved the first megaman legends and have been searching for more of them. they never even bothered to advertise the third game where i am at so they either dont care or just focus on making cheap and pathetic games to make a quick buck. i always loved megaman and have been trying to collect every single last game i could get that i had enough money to buy. if they actually took a poll and asked everyone how they felt about how capcom was doing everyone no doubt would say how terrible they are doing. if they actually took their time and focused on making the games better and actually used how the old ones were made as an example they may have done better than they are now. especially how everything is getting expensive for pretty much nothing decently made anymore. hope you enjoyed what i wrote here today cause i just wanted to speak my mind on this situation.

Hello NT. First I want to say that i'm a fan of your work, (The Rose series being my favorite songs at the moment) and I appriciate you taking the time to interact with us as well as making all these awesome songs.

Now onto Capcom, I cannot speak on DMC (never played the series) but I am a diehard Megaman fan. I always say that although Mario start my gaming hobby, it was Megaman (Megaman II) that stole my heart. I cannot for the life of me understand why they've taken this stance of putting all their support behind a select few games while leaving their fanbase dejected. I visted the Dev Room every time a new poll came up and was excited for the release of the prototype...

Darkstalkers is another of my favorite franchises and although that's been in the bog for years, I have held hope that it along with Legends and several other titles would come along eventually. I find myself losing both that hope as well as my love for a company that I have loved since my childhood. All I can do now is voice my displeasure along with my fellow gamers and hope that someone takes the time to listen.

Thanks and sorry for rambling on. :)

ZX, Universe, Legends, and I'm speculating even that Korean MMO, too. Capcom is merely showing us all how much of a corporate enterprise Video Game Development has become, and how little the customers matter to the big wigs that rake in all of our revenue. They're afraid to innovate, they're afraid to change, and they're afraid to take risks in a risk-based field. It's deplorable.

I for one, am not going to take this laying down at all. Even as I speak, I'm furiously at work on a Mega Man Homage flash piece. Really, I think more people should retaliate by generating fan works. Work against Capcom by drawing their fanbase away by generating content utilizing these forgotten and lovelorn characters. I guarantee you it would drive them absolutely bonkers. C'mon everyone, let's get a Strider fangame!

My mini for-the-people rant aside, let's just say they punched a hole through my heart and took a piece of my childhood with them.

I share the sentiment of all Megamen (and women) in that pic. fuck you capcom.

and besides, megaman fans already made a fucking AWESOME megaman FPS 8-bit style. go search megaman 8-bit deathmatch on youtube!!

This is the reason why i hate game develepors some times. They totally ignore everything that the fans want and just go on with it.

Same deal with SEGA. I used to be a huge sonic fan until 06. I can no longer trust them anymore. I wish they would make something dark like battle 2 but no. Same thing everytime and a werehog? They have to be that generic?

I feel your pain girl, i feel your pain.

Yeah, Capcom really screwed the pooch this time. I really honestly feel like they really only care about their fucking fighting games. What about Megaman?! I wouldn't be surprised if, like Legends 3, they just completely fucking blow off Megaman ZX3. Along with Legends, I've been pumped for that. My final, unintelligent thoughts on this for now:
Fuck you Capcom, fuck you.

I have to admit, I never thought there were that many MML fans out there, I loved the games, but it seemed nobody but me had ever heard of them until this game was announced, I am very mad at capcom for this, I could deal with emo dante, I believe in playing the game first before saying it sucks, but as for MML 3?! I WILL NEVER GET TO FUCKING PLAY IT!!!!!

im right there with you, im startin to get really fed up with capcom. I got marvel vs capcom 3 myself and now this ultimate version, and mega man legends is gone I just dont have faith in em much anymore.

You don't know how mad I was. To cancel a game that nobody was expecting is one thing, but to cancel a game that people were begging to be made is something that is unforgivable! Hopefully, Capcom does in fact change their mind. By the way, did you know about the legends facebook group that was made in attempt to get legends 3 back in development?
<a href="http://www.facebook.com/GetMeOffTheMoon">http://www.facebook.com/GetMeOffTheMo on</a>
While that would help show Capcom how badly we want it, the thing that people should be doing is becoming a servbot in the MML3 devroom.

While there is a chance that this won't work, I'm at big hopes that it does.

I concur... Capcom is selling out hard. I've loved DMC ever since it first came out, being the first PS2 game I ever played, it left its mark. Now... we get CullenDante... Nice capcom... Does he sparkle too? Does he whine continously? I wanna see Operation Racoon with all my heart, but for the first time... Im seriously worried they may screw it up. And the fact that they just plain stoped on MML3 was a heart breaker... I STILL have both MML 1 & 2 for the PS1, and love them to death. I can't give up on Capcom since I'm such a big Resident Evil fan... but number 5 wasn't a zombie game, and it wasn't even scary... hell, most of the game took place in the DAY TIME... I dunno who's idea that was, but obviously, bad ideas are getting through the cracks of the drawing board and sticking... Maybe its time to pass on our favorite games, like MML, DMC, Resident Evil, Onimusha, Dino Crisis (the third one about made me go postal...) and ect to a company that wants to make good games, and not just a lot of money.

Capcom has failed me, they are only keeping Street Fighter alive now. How long before Devil May Cry kicks the bucket as well

I hate how Capcom just gives effort on their Capcom VS series,yet they cancel the other games they make,and i was really pissed off when they cancelled megaman universe.it's like all they pay attention to is just making 2d fighting games now.back in the years,Capcom would be shitting a lot of games out of their ass.now they just suddenly have no effort in games now.all they care about is just their Capcom VS series...

I'm a Megaman fan myself, and had loads of fun with the MML series. I am quite annoyed at the decision myself. If the game was supposed to end at MML2, let it be. But they left such a cliffhanger and this is what we've been waiting to happen?

I do agree with the milking part on SF, somehow it feels too much money and time was spent on it despite so little has been added. (I don't hate Street Fighter, but chances are we'd probably see a Super Hyper Ultimate DX Special HD 3D... etc. Street Fighter 2 Director's Cut). In the end, it appears that the focus was to pull in the old school players' money but tend to leave the new ones aside.

I share your pain.

I know what you mean but, personally, i gotta say that i was actually kind of relieved when i found out about MML's death (as with MMZ's) because, while i was upset i also thought "well, at least that means they won't get the chance to ruin it"
because, let's face it, it seems Capcom has this pathological need of entirely ruining their series, just look at these examples:
Twilight Dante for DMC

Stupidly thought gameplay and online match-ups for MVC3

Microgame emporium for RE

8-bit for the classic MM (might be a good game, but making it 8-bit was just laziness disguised as "retro")

MMBN4 for MMBN

MMX7 for MMX

Not to mention the five versions of SF4, and the series they outright forgot
nice joke capcom, I hope you're laughing

Not a huge Mega Man fan tbh but I feel the same way NT. Capcom started to loose my respect and trust around the time the RE5 demo was put out. Since that day Capcom frequently dissapointed me in every step they took. The RE5 DLC, the Lost Planet 2 disaster, Dead Rising 2 plus Off the Record which they call a new game (eh... what?), the reboot of Devil May Cry and yes it is Devil May Cry now not just DMC, I read it in the trailer. The Street Fighter -milking, the Operation Raccoon City... thing which I hope will get murdered by the community and die a horrible death. Absolutely noone like sthe ORC game so far and Capcom must be either just realy blind ot really ignorant not to see this. I think they need to get their business right, stop milking their franchises every 2 years and get their own dev teams focused on GOOD games like a new proper RE game, a survival horror RE game! They have been accused of milking their franchises before and they came up with killer7, Viewtiful Joe (which was awesome) and P.N.03 so whats the big deal this time?! I still got some hope left for Asuras Wrath and Dragons Dogma and maybe the new DMC game is not that bad after all (sniff)
