Very bad news concerning the status of Mega Man Legends 3 on the 3DS as Capcom dropped the game and all related news on the game from their website.

The same thing occurred with Mega Man Universe before Capcom officially pulled the plug on the project.

The project itself was on very shaky grounds due to the creator of Mega Man having to plead with the company to even have the project be given a "prototype" status due to Capcom's bosses not wanting to spend any time on a new MML game.

Once Inafune left the company, Capcom began to start the delays and eventual removal of the promised June demo from the 3DS eShop.

Onslaught is the first level in the Borderlands DLC. I have the DG: Gold which came with the Borderlands and Resurgence packs.

Dammit Capcom. I wanted a new MML so badly and all the stuff that came out was looking awesome and I could taste it. Was so bummed when the prototype was delayed and now... God.

Ah. Sweet.

I knew that would happen and I've been saying it all along. I knew they were phasing Megaman out.

No MM in MvC3, MMU gets cancelled, now MML3.

I don't think we'll see MM at all for a while now.

It sucks MML3 got cancelled because I love the MML series.

Seems to be that this was written on the wind a while back. Still, quite unCapcom-like to not milk a dead cow.

Kalyx triaD 07-09-2011 09:32 AM

Me and Khuntry were just talking about MML's impending cancellation a few hours before we seen this post. We had a laugh, but one of those sad laughs.

Weekend News Edition
 
Bungie officially ends its involvement with the Halo universe as the latest update on Bungie.net contained the final message by the studio in relations to the Halo series.

Quote:

Halo is yours now. In many ways, it always has been. Its new caretakers will strive, just as we did, to be worthy stewards but you have the package. Hold these characters and stories and worlds to the same unflinching standards you did while we were at the helm, but allow them all to blossom and change and grow in the ways that they must.
Bungie also confirmed they will be changing and reworking their main website as they complete their shift away from Microsoft and the Halo series to their new relationship with Activision and work on a new series' universe.

Microsoft celebrated their last involvement with Bungie Day by having special discounts on avatars and other items with the money being sent to charity.

Microsoft has been grooming 343 Studios to take over the Halo franchise ever since ODST was announced with the first big project being the remake of Halo 1.

Quote:

In addition to the armor unlock, Bungie Day saw the sale of memorabilia and Xbox Live Avatar items, with the proceeds going to charity. On Aug. 2 the studio will fully hand over all administration of Halo to its owner, Microsoft, releasing one last Halo ViDoc entitled "O Brave New Worlds." Then it will begin working on its next project.

"We'll be undergoing a metamorphosis of our own. Very soon Bungie.net will change, culminating with the launch of our next universe at some unknown time in the future," Bungie wrote in its latest weekly update.

Great job, Bungie.

In related news, Halo sucks.

G 07-10-2011 01:29 PM

Before Reach, I would agree. However, the co op in that was incredible. Me and a buddy went through the whole thing in a day. And that was 2 of us. Imagine having 4.

RoXer 07-10-2011 03:25 PM

Kalyx released his beta finally

Supposedly Donkey Kong turned 30 years old yesterday but the problem is nobody knows exactly which date the anniversary of the series occurs on. Not even Nintendo (specifically Nintendo of America) was aware of the anniversary possibly occurring yesterday.

Beta? Moar liek GAYta...Okay, I'll stop now.

The only thing I really liked about Halo was the espansive Universe. While I'm not a direct fan of ANY of it, it was still cool and far more developed than 90% of source material for games today. Mass Effect is cooler, but Halo really does deserve some props for being more than just a series of generic space shooters featuring gay space marines.

That fighting game is...Wrong. There's soemthing about the production value that makes it feel completely date. Like 90s date. I know it probably has more polygons and shit than a mid-90s game, but it has the same sort of vibe. The women look 2D, as well, something we figured out how to NOT do ages ago.

There's only one solution. You two must fight each other using techniques from your respective franchises.

FIGHT!

James Diesel 07-11-2011 11:43 AM

Well, MK is clearly the winner in this battle

Kalyx triaD 07-11-2011 11:53 AM

Fireball spam.

Yes I know it's saddening to see my greatness and know that you're just Kalyx Triad.

Just be the best Kalyx Triad you can be!

Capcom reveals a collection set is planned to celebrate Resident Evil's 15 Year anniversary for the PS3 in Japan.

All of the games are getting upscaled to PS3 resolutions but also only use PS1/PS2 as the source instead from versions with better quality.

Quote:

-Resident Evil Directors Cut (PSX)

-Resident Evil 2 (PSX)

-Resident Evil 3 Last Escape (PSX)

-Resident Evil Revival Selection (PS3)

-Resident Evil Code: Veronica soundtrack

-Resident Evil 4 soundtrack

-15th anniversary items: Pins & Stickers (STARS & Umbrella)

-Spacer for PS3′s Resident Evil 5 or Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition

-Spacer for PS3′s Resident Evil 5 or Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition
The set is said to be going on sale sometime in September and will come with a price tag of ¥7,800, which is roughly $97 American.
The set will not include Resident Evil 0 due to Nintendo owning rights to the game, any rail-style games, or spin-off games such as the Survivor series due to Capcom shutting off the servers for the series. Also not included is Resident Evil 4 which is getting a separate HD upscaled version set for release later this year.

As of now, Capcom did not give any news if the anniversary collection will be available on other systems or if the collection will be released in other regions. If other systems do get the set, it is expected to be different for each system.

Quick News Round-Up:

1) The tension between EA and Valve continues as EA updated all of their upcoming digital download games list and each game on the list has Steam left off with Battlefield 3 to be the recent to drop Steam. At the moment, the tension is high enough that neither company is willing to have talks or negotiations to end the situation.

2) Uncharted 3's developer Naughty Dog is very worried that their game's multiplayer could be completely overshadowed in terms of actual players and potential sales due to Modern Warfare 3 and Battlefield 3 being released around the same time.

3) Based on some early reports involving the upcoming Windows 8 O.S., Microsoft is planning to allow Xbox 360 games to be playable on a PC without the need for an actual Xbox 360 to be plugged into the PC.

Once more in English?

Xbox games on PC would be awesome, though.

Then you'll have the crying over how mouse and keyboard players will start ruling in cod. Will be a lot easier to pirate the stuff too.

I read before that they'll be kept separate.

Funky Fly 07-12-2011 03:33 AM

I doubt it's going to make all that much difference. If you're playing on xbox live, you probably have a pc. Just go grab your mouse and run shit too.
