(Fake) Megaman Reboot

[theDoomguy2011]

What video game did you use at 0:59?

[bloodrunsclear]

@theDoomguy2011

That would be Vanquish :)

[ramjet94]

if Brentalfloss gets either to be a character or a Song in the reboot my life will be complete.

[sankunsama]

You do remember when they did this dark and edgy halo-inspired reboot of Bomberman, right? (It was called Bomberman: Act Zero, if I recall). No one liked it.

I think turning Megaman into yet another sci-fi themed cover-based shooter would yield a similar response.

[bloodrunsclear]

@sankunsama

Halo inspired?

Um...no. Bomberman Act Zero sucked because it had no plot and it was a terrible game.

Consider...

Batman + Dark = Great

Alice + Dark = Great

Now lets consider things that stayed 'bright' and 'safe'

Green Lantern. Without taking an risks was dull and disappointing.

Transformers by staying goofy and actiony turned out horrible.

Star Wars Prequels took away the original grit of the series...and turned out horrible.

[triplepogi2009]

I recognized Vanquish and Crysis 2 clips... but it is epic.

[AquaPhoenix2006]

Could you take a shot at an Enders Game trailer before a real one comes out?

[JackNapierVlog]

If you're taking suggestions... How about a trailer for the SW:KotOR character HK-47?

[100crazzyguy]

they are rebooting megaman

[bloodrunsclear]

@100crazzyguy

By 'reboot' you don't mean 'make another 8-bit wii game'?

[100crazzyguy]

@bloodrunsclear nope

[bloodrunsclear]

@100crazzyguy

Yay ^^

Truth to tell I love the series but I hate the games...if that makes any sense ^^;

I came to know about the story from The Protomen band and thought it seemed awesome, but the games tick me off especially the PSP port :/

[DocWolph]

Unfortunately, I can see Megaman fans being incredibly myopic and refusing anything that strays from the 8-bit and/or Saturday morning cartoon formulas of previous games. But a more adult Megaman taking itself seriously enough to tell a compiling story beyond the basic premise is always desired by those who actually want good, not the same "rinse and repeat", games.

[ghosty342]

MAKE A TRAILER FOR SONNY!

THE FLASH GAME IN ARMORGAMES(.)COM

[theDoomguy2011]

Dan, I didn't know you were on Facebook.

[techanstuff]

im pretty sure the megaman fanboys wont like it :/

[bloodrunsclear]

@techanstuff

I wonder if back in the day some people said 'Zelda will NEVER work in 3D...' XD

[bluthefox1]

@techanstuff Maybe not. I think it might be a good idea to have an megaman reboot, Megaman have a cool history and every fan have his own vision about megaman, because the games are really awesome, but its simple, theres a lot of concept to put in game, I hope someday they will make a cool reboot.

[MistressRemilia]

Since 2012 is Megaman's 25th Anniversary, perhaps Capcom could do Something (Also, Namco could do the Same with Katamari's 10th Anniversary in 2013)

[ramjet94]

As long as it has a mad scientist, 8 evils robots and power ups then it's megaman to me.

[bloodrunsclear]

@ramjet94

I feel the same way. What about American McGee's Alice which proved you could change the context but keep the story alive?

[superdupergamer12345]

Badass! Oh, and how about a skylanders movie trailer?

[ps3freak44]

well the same thing happened with xcom if you change even one tiny thing the fans will cry betrayal

btw could you possibly do a durarara!! or baccano trailer??

[ps3freak44]

if people saw this at e3 so so so many would start bitching about how it's not true to the original characters and how mega man has been degraded down to a mindless third person cover shooter halo rip off. just look at how fans reacted to metal gear revengance.

[bloodrunsclear]

@ps3freak44

They didn't go 'Finally, a main character for the series who isn't an old suicidal guy who spends half the game hiding in a corner?' XD

(Fans are going to eat me alive, but I don't care)

[alexthelizardking]

OKKUSENMAN FTW

[ryu289]

Interesting interpretation...

[jefffox1012]

what is 1:06 from?

[CommanderMilez]

Halo font! :D

[bloodrunsclear]

@CommanderMilez

I liked the futury feel :D

All other Megaman titles look a little...cheesy to me ^^;

[CommanderMilez]

@bloodrunsclear Yeah its gotta be one of the best designed fonts around!

[killer248086]

awsome

this would make an awsome Mega Man movie

[runrabbit119]

Duude, when you showed bits and pieces of the "Purity First" promos for Deus Ex: HM, I literally got the chills.

Epic stuff as always!!!!!!!

[DarkTitan2007]

Capcom won't do this because they don't care. It's too bad, really...This year is Mega Man's 25th anniversary and Capcom just doesn't care.

[Rondart]

Vanquish and MGRevengeance eh.

Loving that Wily Stage remix.

[ILIKECEREALX]

The remix in question is SSH's, isn't it?

[bloodrunsclear]

@ILIKECEREALX

I think so. I'll mention that ^^;

I'll also take this down if anyone complains.

[mchapra]

No. Nonononononono.

[bloodrunsclear]

@mchapra

I know it might not work XD

But its fun to dream.

[mchapra]

@bloodrunsclear I'd love a proper megaman reboot but megaman DOES NOT need something gritty like this.

[bloodrunsclear]

@mchapra

Look up 'The Protomen' either on Youtube or Wikipedia.

He can be! And quite well...

[mchapra]

@bloodrunsclear Thanks Jerk. Now I can't stop listening to that either. First ponies and now this. Damn you :(

[ramjet94]

Yeah capcom seems to have a blood vendetta against megaman. Canceling Legends 3, that universe game, and not letting inafune work with them. It's weird considering that helped their company reach fame.

[jacksrumgone]

I would like to see a Mega Man reboot like this one. No offense to Mega Man fans, but I didn't get interest in the Mega Man series partly, because I couldn't take the character designs seriously. I'm sure they are great games for what they are, but having the main character called Mega Man that looks like a boy inside a blue suit fighting cute robots, I just couldn't get into it. (Just my opinion)

[Mu91c14n]

You should see my friend Tyrannux's idea for a Megaman reboot on Deviantart.

That is some wicked stuff he made.

[WMan37]

Awesome trailer, I still have not played Vanquish yet but i love what i have seen of it.

Too bad Capcom doesn't like Megaman anymore for whatever reason, i mean why else would they cancel the latest Legends game?

Another thing, that "In 2069" reminds me that i need to go download the Syndicate demo. I heard it was supposed to release on the 21st.

[ZygfrydQ]

Megaman was blue :( the guy from vanquish is white...

[bloodrunsclear]

@ZygfrydQ

If I could CGI him blue I would have. I was just modeling the possibilities.

[TriggerManX97]

@bloodrunsclear and @ZygfrydQ Maybe it was MegaMan X, but IDK I never played MegaMan

[StrangeFilm]

@bloodrunsclear hmmmmmmm that could be possible..

[Sibster45678]

I actually said they should do this on Facebook, I mean hell they're doing another Resident Evil, why not Mega Man?

[bloodrunsclear]

@Sibster45678

Thanks for the idea :)

[Sibster45678]

@bloodrunsclear No problem! I'm glad I could help, I heard Rocksteady maybe doing a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game, if the rumor comes true, It'll be crazy!

[ramjet94]

@Sibster45678 well at the very least the combat will be awesome. Who knows they might even go for the original gritty mirage comic version. now THAT would be awesome.
