Well here's the thing: combine things like install-base, demographics, and publishing fees, and it probably makes more sense for Capcom to not bother with XBLA and PSN. Despite the fact that this is a retro game and despite the fact that a lot of Mega Man fans are adults now, the main demographic for Mega Man games is still the younger crowd. Most younger gamers have Wii. Install-base overall for Wii is greater than 360 and PS3. And in the end, it costs more to publish on all three platforms than it does on one. I guess Capcom figures that the potential revenue of 360 and PS3 versions won't justify the publishing cost. This is all conjecture, btw.

People will moomoo about anything. :\

That petition is everything that's wrong with art direction in video games these days. As if we really need more games with that washed out brown-gray look. One of the things I like most about Blizzard is that they don't shy away from actually using colors with some saturation to them.

I recommend Pownce.

Seriously, PS3 just for Mega Man 9?

Looks like it's Wii Exclusive. http://arstechnica.com/journals/thumbs.ars/2008/06/27/megaman-9-to-be-the-first-game-to-hit-wiiware-xbla-and-psn

Bolded = what I'm running right now. My computer runs like a champ.

Hey Paulie. Submit some video game arrangements here. You too Lori.

You can make icons 32x32 and turn off the sidebar you know. Case-in-point: http://darkesword.com/desktop.png Vista.

Just wanna jump in here as a moderator of the forums and say that no, nobody is really free to make as much of an ass of themselves as they like. Let's try to keep that off the forums. I feel like I should comment on this whole deal, but to be honest I don't really care about OurStage or any of that stuff. All I will say is that comments like "fine, just ban us if you don't like it" are pretty inflammatory. By the same token, people shouldn't be trying to discourage others from posting opinions they don't agree with. Carry on. Civilly.

Alright, so I checked out the website and watched some gameplay videos. This looks like a game I can actually enjoy, so hooray.

Spoiler: I nearly pissed myself laughing when the ship tips over and all the fat people start rolling across the deck like blobs. Also, the credits were amazing.

Insane amount of system resources? :\ I think people forget sometimes that Vista isn't for old computers. It's for new ones. If you have the hardware to run Vista, it runs fine. I mean try installing XP on a machine built for 98SE; obviously its going to suck. Honestly, I've been running Vista for about half-a-year now and the only issues I had were with copying files over a network. Those issues were resolved completely with SP1. The only other problems I've had stem more from the fact that I'm running a 64-bit OS instead of a 32-bit OS, and that can't really be blamed on MS, but 3rd party software developers who won't get with the times.

It's overrated.

No, I don't love StarCraft.

Yeah, seriously; I mean I've never played any of the Diablo games. So is it like an action-RPG or a point-n-click-RPG? My problem with Blizzard is that they make games that look amazing, sound amazing, and are just amazingly put together, but they are simply not the types of games that I usually enjoy playing (MMO and RTS). Maybe Diablo III is the way to go? :\

No. It was a thread for T-Shirt designs based on remix titles.

So um, what's the big deal?

You're only allowed to be listed is one artist. We're not going to give you multiple remixer entries just because you're trying out different genres. If that were the case, I'd have 4-5 names myself.

They're not "shunned," they just don't generally fit with the type of music OCR looks for (i.e. complete, cohesive pieces). And game credit themes are medleys because that's a pretty standard way of closing out anything, be it games, movies or plays. End titles are usually an overture of the music featured in the body of work. It really has nothing to do with nostalgia.

Sorry man, but I'm pretty sure that if you haven't been contacted about it by now, your track isn't going to be used.

To answer your question about why there aren't a lot of medleys here: effective medleys are difficult to do for the purposes of OCR. We tend to discourage going the medley route because they tend to feature sequences of under-developed ideas, rather than a true synergistic combination of themes.

If I had a dime for every time someone used Ancient Hero in a shitty Youtube video without giving me credit or claiming they somehow were involved in the actual production of the music, I could hire enough assassins to take them all out. Expensive assassins.

"He was just here a minute ago." RIP, Mr. Carlin. :\

Haha, I will give credit where credit is due. That round of Goldrush where we messed shit up was amazing. I got 15 kills in before I died. xD
