Apparently it's coming to PS4, XBONE, 360, PS3 and #Masterrace.

It's going to be a Metroidvania-type deal and comes off the back of fan enthusiasm for a reboot which is bullshit cause then we'd have AAI2 and MML3

So whaddyall think?

I think Honzo Gonzo puts it pretty well.




Also it's being developed by Double Helix

They probably develop for cheap and that's incredibly alluring for a publisher.

Double Helix. No buy. Let Strider stay dead if they won't even get Yotsui to work on it.

P.S. Buy Moon Diver instead.

Nailed it.
What makes this even funnier/sadder is that a lot of people have been waiting for a new Strider for way longer than Megaman fans have been waiting for a new game.

Well when's the last time Megaman the real one actually appeared in a Capcom game? Megaman 10 was in 2010. Strider Hiryu was in UMVC in 2011. Also I dont see any groups with 100,000 people on them in facebook or any other social networking site begging Capcom to finish a strider game they started, had fans do alot of work on, showed live on Japanese TV several times and promised to complete.

While this is somewhat acknowledging the fans wants and needs I think this move has more to do with capcom needing games to put out in 2014. Before the announcement of Ultra SF4 and Strider they had zero games on the docket for 2014. Dead Rising 3 is this year, so is ducktales, Monster hunter 4 in Japan and other stuff. There was nothing next year unless that Deep Down engine tech demo becomes something next year.

X appeared in Project X Zone which came out this year in the west, there's also Smash Bros. which comes out next year.
That being said I'm not going to argue against you that the Megaman series doesn't deserve to have a new game, it definitely does and the treatment of the franchise by Capcom has been appalling to say the least, when the last game in your key franchise you release is a fan made game (a great fan made gaame, but a fan made game nonetheless) something has definitely gone wrong.

X Appeared in a Namco-Bandai game developed by Banpresto which had very little to do with Capcom. While Rockman X-over may be coming out in the west sometime in the future that's just a crappy i-OS game that should have been made and released on 3DS or Wii/3DS shop with actual controls, decent graphics and levels.

Capcom won't be releasing a real megaman game until at least 2015 or 2016 if then at all and for alot of people that's just a shame. Megaman if the sales of the megaman comics lately is any indication is alive and well in the hearts of many and just waiting to be fairly and correctly adapted for this age.

If there's a Megaman 11 make it at least 16 bit and add a little depth and heart to it. Adapt the comic book story or reboot the series if you must but get the blue bomber back where he belongs.

The problem here is Mega Man still has games made for him. Stider does not. But, again, double helix.
