When the hell is Konami going to announce something for the 25th anniversary.

I recall them mentioning something about planning or considering something, but nothing so far, except the HD port.

In fact, Dave Cox seems to be the only one to actually make a twitter post dedicated to "Happy anniversary Castlevania"

I mean, even FROGGER is getting an anniversary 3DS game.

Not a remix, but its a musical tribute a guy made to Mega Man X for his 17th anniv.

It almost reminds me of a MHX type tune or something.

Wow. Eggman is perfect.

Jaleel is also perfect, and although the fuzzy look of the model looks odd, it isnt too bad, and the model DOES look good.

too bad this team up is kind of impossible- marvel/DC aside, Spiderman 2099 is what, like 80 years after Batman Beyond?

Even if that Batsuit was still around, Terry would not be Batman. :P

naw naw. Capcom would never actually make an AZ alt. that would be too awesome. They would much rather troll with an X alt.

@King P: its not nitpicking, all of Zero's moves are saber based, with his Buster included for good measure.

X would more likely be the other way around. All buster based, with the saber thrown in for good measure.

They should just put X in the God damned game. There's the demand for him, and if they feel up to putting a DLC costume of him in, then why not just make the character?

But we'll have to wait and see what they are actually planning, since its all speculation based on comments referring to "glimpses of blue" and a blue DLC costume.

Yeah I lol'd at the Guardians knocking on the window.

yeah it looks good, but there is something which feels missing. probably like you said, the environments.

Im quite surprised to see Red lanterns other than Atrocitus with any semblance of coherence, much less "questioning" the killing of anyone.

Prices are up, on EVERYTHING. Stores closing left and right. And pockets are on an unwanted diet.

Plus you can just sense the tension in the air when you walk outside, especially in the big apple.

Also, everything at home decides to break or go wrong just now.

Washing machine, Dryer a year or two ago, last year there was a leak in the roof, in the joint between the two conjoined houses. We cant exactly go up with our regular ladder because our house has 3 floors. The ladder reaches the second at best. So we had to call the guy who built the house. Thankfully, he's family. :P
Among other issues which drain the bank just when it happens to be a bad economy.

Well, Mat Moyaln never said never. He has said before that depending on Ariga's works's sales, Udon would consider the X mangas down the road, since they are a big investment. Mainly due to having to use the re-release compilation volumes, which are pretty big, and would be pretty expensive to make. So naturally, the price for them would be somewhat high I imagine.

Quote
    It is something we will think about after seeing how well the Megamix and ZX mangas sell. If these series do initially well, next we would do Ariga's Gigamix, and then think more seriously about Iwamoto's X manga.
    There are a few things to consider.

    1)it is a big investment, as Iwamoto's X manga runs something like 12 tankobons(manga volumes)
    2) his art is pretty retro, but there are people who like that style
    3) price - since the X series is less popular than the classic mega man, and the art style might not be for everyone, we'd expect this series might not sell as well, so we might have to raise the price a little if we did this series.


    I have checked out some of it though. It's definitely a little more old school that our other manga series, but it has its own charm. Story wise I'm afraid I haven't read enough to comment yet. "


"If we did do the X mangas, I'm pretty sure we would do them in the 5 mega-volume collection format. But even in this format, there would still be a lot of investment needed.

By investment meant I meant not only the cost of licensing fees, but also the cost of translation, lettering, printing etc. Even if we licensed only the first MMX mega book as a test run, that book is huge, like almost 600 pages (I have a copy on my desk here actually heh). Just the first volume be about as much work as the whole Megamix series. So there's that to consider.

On MMX's popularity, there are definitely tons of X fans out there, I know, and they are a dedicated bunch. But as a spinoff it's always going to be less popular than the core series. We can see this with our two mm complete works books. Released at the same time, same price, similar contents, MM Classic OCW is selling better than MMX OCW. Neither sells BAD, but there is a gap between them for sure. So when thinking of X manga, we have to assume that sales on it VS the classic Ariga stuff will have a similar sales gap. Also a longer series with a more expensive price point per volume (regardless of page count) affects sales as well. It's a much tougher sell to the casual buyer.

But even with all that, it's not to say any of this is a deal breaker, it's all just things we have to keep in mind."

he also made mention of the Ikehara ones.

Quote
"While this is also a very retro looking series, I find the Shigeto books look a little more polished than the Iwamoto X mangas, more like the work of an old master like Osamu Tezuka. But that is just a personal opinion, to the many readers they probably both look like 'old manga'.

It might sell better than the x mangas, I'm not sure. But with this series would come new hurdles. We'd have to really reasearch who owns the rights these days. I'm not sure it has ever been republished since it's original run, so those coudl still lie with Kodansha. There's also the problem of finding usable files, the original manga was probably printed with film output not digital. Some of the artwork is getting close to 20 years old, and it's very likely the original art is no longer in scanable condition(if it still exists). Our most likely choice we be to have to scan the artwork from the original books, which means finding 20 year old copies in good enough condition to scan. We have done this before but, it's a lot of work. The Rockman X and Megamix series are pretty old too, but they have both been reprinted over the years (both within the last 2 years even) so those files are readily available.

So, no plans on this one right now, but I am a fan of the art. Let's see how the Ariga books do first heh..."

I want a Flash series. Voiced by Michael Rosenbaum. Make it happen Mr.Timm.
Word. I love Flash.

I FINALLY got around to seeing Emerald Knights. I absolutely loved it. I liked how it was basically a collection of backstories for different Lanterns.

Jason Isaacs as Sinestro was absolutely glorious.

Mogo as usual, always knows how to be awesome.  I still always wonder how big his battery must be. Although given his size, im gonna guess he IS his own power battery. His planet exterior is the shell, and his core is well, a green energy core.

Arisa was also uber adorable. I liked the backstory behind the guy who trained Kilowog.

There were references and nods to known characters up the wazoo, I spotted a dozen Lanterns I recognized, and even Atrocitus payed a visit. Along with his prophecies. Even Blackest Night was referenced, ("So I guess this is the Blackest Night everyone talks about") Which makes me think how awesome an animated Blackest Night would be.
