Capcom revealed, in a Japanese legal disclosure discussing March business developments, that they have teamed up with with Korean developer NeoWiz Games to make an online Mega Man game called 'Rockman Online.' Rockman is the Japanese name for Mega Man.
Few details were announced. In the past, NeoWiz has worked on such games as Duel Gate and Battlefield Online, a remake of Battlefield 2. The disclosure said that Capcom had "strengthened PC online game development," and that they are "expanding into foreign markets within Asia." This seems to indicate that the game will be a PC game targeted at Korean gamers and American's may have to wait for the game if they get it at all. |

I wish I was Korean so I could play MMORPGs all day and eventually murder someone IRL over rare items. Man, that would be awesome.

You'll just have to settle for rage killing somebody over Halo like the rest of us.
I'm still waiting for Ghouls 'N Ghosts online.

So, how would this work? A create-your-own-robot-master MMORPG in the vein of City of Heroes?

I'm not sure about that. This might very well be based off the Battle Network games. Same game concept, but it works a little better for an online game.

Haha, the ending of that article is priceless.

I'm half Korean. I'm not obsessed with online gaming though.

That's because you're the wrong half.

It's because you don't actually live in Korea. MMORPGs are huge there.
They were supposed to get a Shenmue MMORPG, which would have made me super jealous, but the project fell apart.

I want to murder someone over a 360 vs. PS3 debate. Then I would keep a straight face as I continually insist to the media that the other guy had it wrong; 1080p does matter and anyone who says they can settle with 720p honestly needs a knife in the chest.
This is not in any way an endorsement of any current console.

 I'm not a bad enough dude, but I am an edgy little shit. I'll do what I can. |

I definitely got into heated Mario vs. Sonic arguments back in the day.

MegaMan Universe was reportedly trademarked by Capcom, so this may be what that is. Though in all honesty I hope it isn't and that Universe is actually a crossover fighting game that uses the Vs. engine...

I see what you did there, Capcom.

Most likely Syd, you would meet a girl that shares your love on online gaming, move into her parents house, have a kid, neglect the kid, kid would die due to you and your Korean girlfriend playing an online simulation about raising children.
I don't think it would be the first it happened.

 No, I don't think I will fuck Stummies. |
