Wait a sec...correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Megaman X the same as Megaman 10? I'd much rather see a release of X on XBLA. | |
EASY MODE??? BLASPHEMY!!!! | |
Haha, the easy mode made me smile. | |
EASY MODE??? BLASPHEMY!!!! | |
Playing as Protoman? this will be the awesome! I remember having the protoshield from a different megaman game but playing as protoman will be a different experience! also in megamn THERE IS NO EASY MODE there is only one mode.... hard mode | |
That first stage looked like some kind of football stadium. But any ways, old man rant go! "Easy mode *grumble grumble*. Back in my day *grumble grumble*. Kids these days *grumble grumble* ect." I'm old... | |
No. The X in Megaman X is not a Roman numeral, it's meant to stand for "Experimental" or "Extreme". Besides, if it really did stand for 10, you'd have to explain what happened to Megaman XI. | |
I wonder if Roll will be a boss at some point, considering the infected robots try to take over the world. That'd be kind of cool. | |
So now, Megaman fights zombie robots. Sweet. Next up: Ninja Pirate Vampire Cowboy Alien Nazi Wizard Zombie Robots! | |
.............. Fucking A! | |
Nope, X was considered a first entry into a different franchise, thus X2 - X8 (did X9 ever come out? doesn't matter, X5 was the last good one). Roboenza may be a precursor to the Maverick Virus, however, so maybe Wily unleashes Sigma. | |
EASY MODE? I thought the whole goddamn POINT of Mega Man 9 was to bring retro gaming and all its challenge back so the new generation can develop some goddamn skills. And now they add EASY MODE?! | |
its just to allow casual gamers (as in not that good at hard games) beat the game | |
looks coolbut it doesnt realy "feel" the same as megaman 9 | |
cool. only one problem... I'm still to finish Mega Man 9... :P | |
Hmm, maybe I should get this. What better way than to start off my first time playing a series than playing it with robot swine flu? | |
Wily won't be the boss just like he "wasn't" the boss in mega man 4. | |
Am I the only one who thinks that just because a game is designed like the old ones, it doesn't have to look and sound like the 8-bit era never ended? | |
an easy mode for mega man! finally i get to feel how its like to complete a mega man game, and a zombie mega man game at that, not swine flu, zombie virus. | |
This. is an outrage!!!! | |
I might have enjoyed this more back in the 90s, but I guess it still has some entertainment value. The music sounds as good as always, what little I have heard.
Yeah, we used to play games uphill both ways, and backwards, in the snow *grumble grumble*. | |
Burn the casual! *fetches a pitchfork and flaming torch* Yeah that easy mode is a bit of a piss take, I'd be okay with easiER play mode, but that was stupid. Mind you I don't have a Wii, so it doesnt matter to me. | |
I think we've found something much worse than the zombie virus in Roboenza- the robot zombie virus! Oh shit! Also, as much as I like Protoman, he kinda acted like a douche, didn't he? "I don't think you'll be able to do this alone," he says, and yet Mega Man just says "I'd appreciate any help"? He should have responded, "Bitch, have you seen me in any of the other games? I'm the blue bomber, and I can handle this. Need I point out that I have a motherfuckin' gun for a hand?" | |
Never played a megaman game. Anyone think I should try one? | |
I know. Being actually able to beat the game in one sitting is so wrong, huh? | |
I actually like the look of the city-ish settings of the levels. Also, 'easy mode'? I will avoid it like I avoid leprosy. | |
I want to see Megaman legends 1 and 2 on XBLA | |
hrmm when I first heard of "easy mode" I thought they meant something like enemies will do less damage or the game would be more forgiving with item drops, not that the levels would be different. That's no fun. | |
Finally, this easy mode will let me beat a Megaman game that didn't have "network" in the title. | |
Or those of us that have actually grown up enough to have better things to do than die ten thousand times on the same level until we've memorized every pixel of the map, only to die ten thousand times on the next map. Take the elitist attitude and shove it up your ass. An easier mode is appreciated, but God damn if that doesn't look too easy. Once again, game developers miss the idea of a middle ground. Either way hard or way too easy. No concept of a challenge, but not a bitch. | |
Zombie Robots? Sweet! Playing as Protoman? Cool! Easy mode looking like it was made for people who stretch the term "Human intelligence" No. | |
No, Megaman X started an entire new series. | |
You forgot wizards. | |
X and Mega Man were totally different robots, don't you watch cartoons? | |

Mega Man 10 Trailer Gives Robot Masters Swine Man Flu
The robots in Mega Man 10 may be calling their disease "Roboenza," but let's all be honest here for a moment: We know what they really have.
So in case you were rolling your eyes at the announcement of another retro-style Mega Man, wondering just how Dr. Wily would be up to no good this time, you might want to stop and wait a moment, because the villain this time isn't Dr. Wily at all! No, judging by the trailer, the villain is an apathetic computer virus called "Roboenza," which makes robots shut down - and then makes them turn evil and run amok.
So it looks like there won't be any Dr. Wily at all, for once! Yep, no Dr. Wily here - just a natural, harmless little freak-of-nature disease that's sunk its chops into Mega Man's sister Roll.
Oh, I can't keep that up: Of course it's Dr. Wily's plan. It's always Dr. Wily's plan! But the trailer shows some of the new enemies and stages in Mega Man 10 that will be out to kill the Blue Bomber dead, from a sand level and a fire level to something that looks very computer-y. It also shows off the game's music, which (in keeping with what we know of the series) should be catchy as all hell.
If you watch to the very end, you'll also catch a glimpse of the game's Easy Mode. And when they say Easy Mode, they're not kidding. Wow - Mega Man should feel almost insulted.
