Of go to kotaku.com and look for the article on the PC version.

[Xero]

Not sure if want.  Let's hope it's good.

[ASR]

Okay, am I the only one who's getting the vibe that this might be that idea Inafune teased about a while back, talking about making a MegaMan fighting game that puts all the different incarnations of MegaMan in an arena together?

Because I can't bring myself to believe that MegaMan is a good platform to make an MMORPG out of.

And that fighting game idea sounded awesome.

Mega Man Universe. It's your favorites side-scrolling Mega Man you used to love, until Wily attacks Light's Lab and vows to take over the universe. Now it's up to Mega Man to find the 120 Power Fragments that Wily has scattered across the universe, and defeat Wily once again!

WHAT AN AMAZING NEW CONCEPT FOR A VIDEO GAME

[Majikn]

Oh wait I just realized that's what Chaos was deliberately implying hahaha
I HAD SKIMMED DAMNIT

[Abominator]

It's sad that these days when I hear about a new MegaMan game I have to think "I hope this isn't #####!"

[Xero]

This could either be #####, or perhaps the greatest thing ever.

[ChaosVortex]

It's sad that these days when I hear about a new MegaMan game I have to think "I hope this isn't #####!"

Pretty much the sad truth.

I've been there for YEARS!  Welcome to the club!

[Abominator]

CLUB MEGA!

[Johncarllos]

That makes me want to go to the MChat....

[TheOnly]

Let's just hope Capcom does not try to connect the series together eh?

[Majikn]

[Xero]

OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD!

I HOPE THIS IS IT I HOPE THIS IS IT I HOPE THIS IS IT I HOPE THIS IS IT I HOPE THIS IS IT!

[Johncarllos]

ECKSU

[ChaosVortex]

If this is a Mega Man X9, this is how I feel:

NO THANK YOU.

They've already screwed up storyline-wise from MMX5, by screwing it up further in X6 and then just going nuts with X7 and X8. Yeah, X8 was fairly decent, but the story... It made no sense and... for goodness sakes you battled on the MOON.

If it's however, something original, I may like it.

[Majikn]

I don't care what it is, I'm not getting excited until I see more.

ECKSU

E-KE-SU is how its spelled, John!

Sheesh, learn more Japanese for Christ's sake.

Neowiz appear to make dodgy online games that nobody has ever heard of:

[TheRedPriest]

I've heard their games are dodgy.

"VF 2.0: Enjoy the fascinating action provided by this worldly recognized game."

I must live under a pretty big rock.

[Mikero]

I HOPE THIS IS IT!

Why?

I don't care what it is, I'm not getting excited until I see more.

Right on.

A MMO set in the Mega Man X universe, where you can create your own character, make him either a civilian, a maverick, or a maverick hunter, and do pretty much anything you want?

That's why.

[Abominator]

A MMO

I'm out at this point.

[TheRedPriest]

I really just don't get the appeal of MMORPGs.  I don't want to play Feces Gorilla and run around tossing turd bombs at everyone.  I want to play X.  Or Zero.  In 2D.  Nice challenging platforming.

This is why we can't have nice things.  Though I think of all the Mega Man franchises that would work well as one, X or Battle Network would be best.  X offers more options than Classic and Battle Network is MUCH less restricted than Star Force by virtue of the nature of Net Navies vs FMians or whatever the hell they're called.  You could do Legends, but it's just doesn't offer as many options or potential as X or BN.

Though I really have no practical interest in it at all, just academic.

Edit - And yes, like Abe, I'm out at this point if it is indeed a MMO game.

[ChaosVortex]

I'd play it, but I probably won't have the time to or the investment.

Sounds like one of your theories and I don't think it would work.
Nor do I want it to.

[Xero]

;-;

[MOX]

Neowiz's website is better than their games.

[Abominator]

Your big ugly sig is too big.

It's also too ugly, but there's no accounting for taste.

[TheRedPriest]

Why would people put such an ugly sig on such a pretty site?  Oh why?!

[Xero]

That....that is one ugly sig.

[Mikero]

It might be ugly... At least it ain't got no money!

[Vinchenz Rock]

So, this game turned out to be RockMan Online.

http://www.themmnetwork.com/2010/06/03/new-details-and-images-on-rockman-online/

Surprisingly... it's not an MMO, but rather a side-scrolling Action RPG, in the same style X8 was done.

A Co-Op MegaMan game? Sounds interesting.

[TheRedPriest]

Well, at least the art is heads and tails better than X8...  That's all the good I can say about it.  3D?  ##### Capcom.

[NovaMan XP]

Well, if it's not an MMO, that's already making me slightly interested.

But only slightly. 3D is meh.

[ChaosVortex]

No opinion as of yet. Looks okay I guess.

[Xero]

This ##### better come stateside.

[TheOnly]

Isn't the game game that apperantlly is not getting an America or Japan relase? Or am I confusing it with some other MM game?

[TheRedPriest]

Well, if it's not an MMO, that's already making me slightly interested.

But only slightly. 3D is meh.

... It's still a MMORPG.  I have no idea how they intend to make it work in a 2.5D "Action RPG" style though.  This whole thing sounds like an awful, AWFUL train wreck.  The kind you could only get away with doing in Korea.

[ChaosVortex]

Where did they say the game game that apperantlly is not getting relased out of Korea?

[ASR]

In the link that Vinch posted. It says it's slim that it'll even be released in Japan, let alone the Western hemisphere.

[ChaosVortex]

oh hi im making a game to be played on the world wide web

only in korea

[Xero]

Doubtful.

Capcom of America will probably get this over here.  Just as they did with Tatsunoko vs Capcom.

But until then...

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUU

[Vinchenz Rock]

oh hi im making a game to be played on the world wide web

only in korea

You need to disclose your Korean SIN for any Korean website you want to sign up on.

Only in Korea indeed.

Social Insecurity Number?

[Mikero]

Social Insecurity Number?

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[ChaosVortex]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!

[Mikero]

I have NEVER said that!
Don't you put that evil on me, Ricky Bobby!
