I am okay with this. They're having fun with some of their characters, and it's not gonna cost us anything.

I'm confused where this fits into the canon. Is 2012 before or after 20XX? Is this a continuation of the story from Street Fighter 2010: The Final Fight?

You know what Capcom, I don't really care for Megaman, and I've stopped caring about Street Fighter recently. But that made me smile.

Seems like everything Capcom does is met with criticism....

Well, Capcom, I appreciate what this is. You are A-OK in my books.

On one hand, it's kinda shitty that the only thing they're doing for Mega Man's 25th anniversary is propping it up with Street Fighter.

On the other hand, free game.

It is real, it is a fan-made game that Capcom didn't C&D and decided to help distribute. The creator is from Singapore, they brought him up on stage.

It is a fan game, actually.

I get the joke you're making, but it's actually quite the contrary. This is a fan project that Capcom has officially gotten behind. I really wish more companies would be like that.

A little disappointing because everyone thought the "surprise announcement" during the SF25 grand finals would be, y'know, fighting game related.

Cute, but I don't know if it takes away the stench of Megaman Xover.

Mega Man!

EDIT: Holy crap I got it and I wasn't even trying!

OT: This looks really neat. I was thinking that it was some cash-in until I saw the last bit where it says it will be free. Cool!
