In a few years the games of this generation will be umplayable... There is so much multiplayer games, passes and dlc... when these games servers closes, where will the fun go? That's why old school games are better. In 30 years, I'll probably still be able to play sonic, but COD or Battlefield? Probably not...

lol SA Mega Man 9 Review on the TV. :)

SF x MM would have been so much cooler if just a tad bit more effort was put into the sprite work, just sayin!

So what's the point of having a game again? Oh yeah, to be able to play it. GLU may as well have gotten themselves in a STICKY situation. [=)]
Cant wait for MMxSF. Definitely downloading it when it comes out.

GLU may be the most evil company ever. Yes, more than Activision. They just pulled the plug on so many games.

Good for you, Capcom.

Should be gamespy.

Thinking of "free" and "Capcom" in the same sentence is unreal but at the same time incredible. I can only hope that this fan game is only the start of a trek to repair the damage done by all those cancellations. (...crap, I probably just jinxed it now.)

Way to go GLU, you have now cemented your place on the totem pole of evil game companies right near the bottom. Seriously, about a small peg above EA.

proud to say that the fan making the SFxMM game is from my country~!!
