Mega Man 3 Cover Playthrough


Downloaded this a few days ago and am loving it! I even actually paid for it!

Way to go, Crapcom. Once again the fans have done more for the 25th anniversary than you.

Seems to be a fan game but it's endorsed by Capcom!  WHAT!?!?

HOHOHO that game looks awesome!

as for the 25 anniversary, after 100 years my custom MegaMan Volnutt figure came in today!

[Abnormal Freak]

At least the game's being put out as an official release. I like the idea of a fan-made game being endorsed and distributed by the big boys.

I'm all for games in popular franchises being developed by other people so long as they're good.

I dunno, I'm okay with this. It's not too much different than any other outsourced thing (though they didn't pay for it likely). I far prefer this to having fan games C&D'd, like some companies do (SEGA  ).

Besides, that you can move your own character puts it light years past the polished turd that is XOver.

[Inccubus]

I agree. It's not really even all that surprising given the ass-load of negative press Capcom got over the cancellation of all the Megaman games that were in the works. Not to mention how bad it looked when pretty much all the games were being produced by Inafune-san.

Neat! And apparently there's another major fangame coming out that xovers MMClassic & Legends.

I think it's an interesting touch that basically, MMxSF closes out the Street Fighter celebrations and opens the Mega Man ones.

[TheCruelAngel]

I'm pretty excited for MMxSF, especially the price point. 

I've been pretty bummed out about MM as a franchise since Inafune's departure (and subsequent canceling of MML3), so this little bit of new is pretty good in my eyes. The 17th can't come soon enough!

[Bloodreign]

At this point I'd gladly take another classic series style Mega Man, and whoop those Street Fighter chumps back to Street Fighter land, whether it's India, USA, Japan, China, or Thailand. 

Best of all, it's all free.

[X]

This MM vs SF game does look entertaining and amusing. I won't hesitate to give it a play-through.

[Flame]

Well lets not forget that MMxSF is really just a Capcom Endorsed Fan project. It's been around, or at least the WIP has, far before now.

[Inccubus]

However, besides the endorsement, Capcom did provide enough funding for the dude to work on the game full time & provided him with additional 'support'. So I think Svensson made a great call pushing for CoJ to approve this project and make it free. It shows that CoA understands the seriousness of the bad press CoJ caused by cancelling all of Inafune's projects and misguidedly involving the fans in a project they hadn't given the green light to.

[Abnormal Freak]

And I say who fucking cares that it's a fan project because it's fully endorsed and probably better than anything Capcom would ever care to do.

I'll play it later. :O It's taking a million hours to download.

Just search for sfxmm_us.zip under mediafire. Hell of a lot quicker, and no guilt attached as it's still free.
