If you’ve been playing games / watching anime / generally living since the ’80s and ’90s, odds are you have a few favorite voice actors, or are at least aware of how prevelant some actors can be across these mediums. Since Mega Man has spanned cartoons, toys, games and more, he’s amassed quite a stable of well-known VO-ers – and this helpful video summarizes much of them into six minutes!

How does Sugar Ray tie into Mega Man? If you don’t already know, it’s pretty bizarre and worth watching just to discover for yourself. Didja know they also had a song on the ’90s Mega Man album, which is also home to this amazing piece of music:

Enjoy!

We finally got some of those cool “Welcome to Los Perdidos Hell” signs in the office, and I wanted to give you guys a bit of a closer look since they’re really pretty finely detailed and the stock image on the store may not completely do them justice (better pic after the jump).

Plus, they’re currently marked down to $19.95! Go buy one for your man cave, lady lair, or, uh, zombie zone!

Note the fine embossing on the part of the sign that would, in real life, be embossed! Also note the bulletholes, cracked paint, and other miscellaneous apocalyptic gunk. Perfect for your gaming room or any other location you think of as hell on earth.

Ah, March 1996. The Nintendo 64 was mere months away, Twister was about to delight audiences around the world with its impressive effects and brand new Van Halen song , and – perhaps most relevant to this blog post – the first zombie dog burst through a creepy mansion window.

To celebrate this 18th bday, RE.net is offering up three new (and free) items for RE Revelations. You can log on between March 22 and April 3 to redeem these items.

Enhanced Python: Serpent (Level 46, Slot 3)

A trusty ally, especially for the second half of Raid mode.

Unlock with present code [resident].

Great all-around performance: Revelator (Level 31, Slot 5)

A balanced weapon for just about any situation.

Unlock with present code [evil].

-CUSTOM PARTS-

Speed is power: Fire Rate 4

Most of the time you’ll want to unload as quickly as possible, and for that there are few boosts as effective as this part.

Unlock with present code [eighteen].

Make your own luck: Critical 5

Critical hits can help you escape difficult situations, and this part can help bend those odds in your favor.

Unlock with present code [years].

An Agent’s best friend: Damage 5

Can be attached to any weapon for an easy firepower boost.

Unlock with present code [anniversary].

All these items should be pretty helpful in the middle-ranges of Raid Mode, so if you’ve hit a wall, perhaps these will be the boost you need!

There’s also an EX3 event happening soon for RE6, plus additional Revelatons online events so hop on over to residentevil.net & check ’em out.

What if your favorite Monster Hunter monsters were…  REAL !

So some of our folks here made a quick trip to Japan and took a day to cruise around Universal Studios Japan and pretend to look frightened at the sight of these mechanical, but totally REAL, beasts!

Hopefully  Monster Hunter  will one day be as big here as it is Japan, just so we can get these attractions on western theme-parks, like this  Resident Evil maze.

Life-size Tigrex looking fierce

Some super rad Universal Studios Japan themed equipment

Rathalos taking a break from ruling the Real skies here

Adorable USJ Felynes!

Some sort of bag or pouch thing, made to look like one of the new weapon classes in MH4U

Speaking of MH4U, say hello to Gore Magala…

After you kill it, you can make this mean-looking Bow!

Eternal Eradicator – a classic Great Sword from the Freedom days

Now here’s something you could take home… a 1/10 scale Tigrex! Actually, I kinda doubt it’s for sale… =/

A Monster Hunter themed Food Truck, where you can buy “Well-done Steak The Great” and…

“Monster Hunter Drink The Great” – no I did not make these names up!

This GIF is a little bonus for you guys… also my first GIF! D:

WAIT, THERE’S MORE! To conserve your browser and data usage, I’ve put the remaining 12 pictures on this gallery. You’re welcome. =P

So what do you think? Definitely something worth waiting in line for, right? 😉

And other slightly deceiving pictures to make the heart sing!

No, this isn’t Mega Man taking on Mushroom Man’s stage, it’s actually from a newly-revealed Smash Bros. stage , and it’s something we haven’t seen in any of the Wii U screenshots  thus far.

Based on the amazing Super Mario 3D Land, Smash designer Masahiro Sakurai also revealed that the level will (side)scroll and takes two minutes to see in its entirety. See the rest of Sakurai’s thought’s below or o n the Miiverse . 

F ew things on Earth are more wonderful than this image

::UPDATE:: Sorry guys, a perfect storm of unforeseen circumstances necessitates that we extend the event for another 24 hours. Round 2 of the event will now close at noon PT on Tuesday, March 25th. Sorry for the inconvenience. 

All right Strider players, time for Round 2. This time’s the same as Round 1 except for platform. We’ll be challenging those playing on Steam to top our Friend-filtered leaderboards for fastest completion time on Normal mode. 

How to Enter:

Step 1:  Add our CapcomUnity profile as a Friend on Steam.

Step 2:  Comment on this post below OR send me a private message on Unity giving your Steam account name. This is how we know who to badge on Unity.

Step 3:  Complete  Strider ‘s main game on the Normal difficulty. Do this before Monday, March 24th at noon PT to qualify.  Your completion time will show up on our Friend-filtered leaderboard. 

The player with the fastest completion time will receive a rare and awesome Strider scarf, pictured above. All other entrants (which means clearing the game and showing up on our leaderboard!) will receive the Strider Leaderboard Showdown badge. 

And that’s about it! Winner will be announced shortly after the event closes next Monday. Good luck!

The new and final Dead Rising 3 side story, “The Last Agent,” is out now! This final installment features Brad Park, a ZDC agent who must discover the terrible truth behind the zombie outbreak. Included are a new vehicle, six new weapons, and of course, more GamerScore and PP that carry over to your main game. Trailer and screens after the jump!

::UPDATE:: Trading card sample images added after the jump!

For this week’s Midweek Madness Sale, Steam, like Nilin, is hitting us with a one-two punch–of savings! Not only has Remember Me   gotten a permanent price drop–it’s  also 66% off the  new price for a limited time! Color me im pressen ed! They’ve also added some snazzy new trading cards for you collectors.

Base Price: $49.99 | $29.99
Sale Price: $29.99 | $10.19 

The Combo Lab Pack DLC is also discounted at 66% off, meaning you can equip Nilin with a bunch of Street Fighter-inspired moves for $1.36. That’s bupkis! 

The price drop is permanent, but that incredible sale price won’t last long. Pick it up before your memory is remixed!

Well guys, here are the results of our  Strider  Leaderboard Showdown – Round 1.  As you can see, only three people both added the “Capcom_Unity” account as a friend  and cleared the game. I think we can do better than that for future rounds, starting with Round 2 tomorrow. Make sure you’re following our instructions if you want to enter! 

Meanwhile, big congratulations to Krazy_Tazmanius, a.k.a. Unity’s Tazman , for topping our Friend leaderboard, not to mention placing fourth worldwide! Awesome job to jme2012 and Megaman16 as well, both of whom tailed just behind. Scarf and badges will be awarded!

UPDATE: The stream archive is now on YouTube . Enjoy! =)

Hey hey hey! We’ve got our special 1 year anniversary celebratory   Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate live stream coming up this Friday , but today, as usual, we’re bringing you  Monster Hunter Mondays at  3pm (Pacific) – twitch.tv/capcomunity – Help D Lobby 10

See you soon!

Because sometimes, some games go slippin’ through the cracks…

Obviously, the wonderful existence of DuckTales: Remastered kickstarted a beautiful wave of wants and wished when it comes to Disney/Capcom past. But if I had my choice, it’d be Chip N’ Dale Rescue Rangers , the best dang co-op game on the Nintendo Entertainment System IMO. Likeminded Pixel Artist Simon S. Anderson  has gone a step further than dreaming it, and whipped up this gorgeous concept:

Not only do I love seeing it reimagined as an 16-bit (or more?) game, I gotta give Simon additional props for increasing the scope of one of my biggest cartoon crushes of all-time, Gadget Hackwrench. In exchange for not laughing at me, here, have a Rescue Rangers iOS Wallpaper I made a while back :

M.Bison’s plans for domination are only getting stronger with the addition of Decapre to the USFIV roster.  The final challenger has arrived and she’s ready to share her pain with the rest of the warriors. Will Cammy and the other Street Fighters be able to escape her wrath? 

You can find out more about Decapre over at IGN and find her portrait below.
