Devil May Cry 4 Special Edition Style Tournament- Final Round Results

Sep 04, 2015 // GregaMan

After an entire  season of hot-blooded stylin’s, we finally have a final, ultimate champion in our Devil May Cry 4 Special Edition Style Tournament. Hit the jump to see!

The Final Round was swept, by a landslide, by contender Hiimtab . I don’t suspect it’ll be controversial to state that Hiimtab is one of the most cutting-edge players we’ve seen since the release of Devil May Cry 4 Special Edition.  While all of our Finalist submissions were incredible, Hiimtab has truly ushered in a new age for stylish action with innovative and explorative use of Trish. Hiimtab hinted at some groundbreaking Trish techniques in Round 3, but showed considerable growth and polish since then with this final round submission. Trish players…watch and learn.

In this gloriously defiant graph, you can see that Hiimtab has taken a whopping 43% of the vote, with Serj coming in second place and Essedieffe just behind in third. 

Congrats to Hiimtab, who will receive the grand prize–an autographed Japanese “pizza box” limited edition of the game, as well as to all other Finalists, who will receive autographed copies of the regular Japanese physical version. 

Thanks for playing, and keep an eye on those stylish YouTubers!

MMLC Robot Master List: Yamato Man

Aug 31, 2015 // GregaMan

Number: DWN-048

Weapon:  Yamato Spear

Weakness:  Silver Tomahawk

His light armor makes him especially mobile. He uses a spear to attack, but it’s pretty dumb how he has to go retrieve it.

It was only a matter of time before this Japanese series about robots engaged in deadly battle gave us a robot samurai, but who would’ve thought they’d wait until the end of the series’ NES run?

Yamato Man can be quite intimidating at first glance due to his imposing, armored stature and adept use of his giant, head-launching spear, but the illusion is somewhat dampened by the fact that he must manually retrieve his spearheads after launching them, like an inept putt-putt golfer caught in an endless cycle of repositioning and whiffing.

Use Tomahawk Man’s weapon to send Yamato back to mama -to. Yes. Your reward will be the Yamato Spear.

David Oxford   (The Mega Man Network)
It seems somehow fitting that the final Robot Master in the NES installments of the series would pay tribute to the history of the franchise’s country of origin, Japan.

Really, though, what needs to be said? Yamato Man is a robot samurai with a high-tech looking spear, and is pretty awesome. Less awesome for him, however, is that he only keeps a small amount of ammo on him, forcing him to run around and retrieve spent shots during the course of his battles.

As a competitor in the tournament to crown the world’s strongest robot, it’s funny that his original name — “Musha (Warrior) Man” — would go unused in favor of a term which instead means “great peace.”

———————————–

And so concludes our MMLC Master List! We hope you’ve enjoyed our daily look at this series’ robot roster. Now quit readin’ and start playin’!  Mega Man Legacy Collection is out now on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC!

MMLC Robot Master List: Wind Man

Aug 28, 2015 // GregaMan

Number: DWN-047

Weapon:  Wind Storm

Weakness:  Centaur Flash

A wind-controlling robot with abilities similar to those of Air Man. Get away from his propeller attacks and dodge with straight, vertical jumps.

Wind Man and Air Man would be kindred spirits, were they not soulless robots. Both have industrial-grade fans embedded in their bodies, both have stages located precariously among the clouds, and both are big jerks.

One key difference here, though: Wind Man commands an army of killer pandas. And by “an army,” I mean “a few.”

Wind Man will use his shoulder-mounted jet turbines to generate winds up to 200mph, which can pull Mega Man in for contact damage. He can also launch spinning propellers at Mega Man in a dual-wave pattern that can be tricky to dodge.

Wind Man is susceptible to the space and time-distorting Centaur Flash. Use it to take him out—wait for it—in a flash. Then the Wind Storm weapon is yours. Use it to launch little tornadoes of doom like so:

David Oxford   (The Mega Man Network)
Wind Man is the second Robot Master to be designed by a fan from North America, and much like Knight Man before him, his visual aesthetic and personality kind of betray that.

This hulking robot has a bit of a rivalry with Air Man, but unfortunately for him, his attacks are nowhere near as devastating. In fact, a capable player might even find Wind Man to be a good starting point among the eight Robot Masters of Mega Man 6.

Strangely enough, the weapon you receive from him bears no resemblance to what he uses in battle. While he throws out dual propellers and uses his fans to push or pull Mega Man, the Blue Bomber instead receives a small tornado that moves much like Bubble Lead — and even adorns him in the same colors!

Jazz quartet, The Consouls, covers Cathar theme from MH4U

Aug 28, 2015 // Yuri Araujo

Monster Hunter covers are still pretty rare these days, but when they do come up , they always astound me with amazing quality and just the right amount of nostalgia to take me back. This MH4U Cathar theme cover by Australian band The Consouls is no exception! Check it out:

If you can, I definitely recommend putting on some headphones for maximum appreciation of all the little sounds… then close your eyes and just let their music reach your soul =]

Just a quick heads-up to everyone going to PAX Prime this weekend: we have some brand new t-shirts at the Capcom store, in addition to the restocking of some of the more popular, previously sold-out item!

And speaking of popular, the Mega Man Helmet is still available for pre-order, but we’ll be closing the pre-orders pretty soon ( September 4th ), so consider this your last call to secure your own helmet!

Only $150, plus shipping!  Ships this Holiday.

Now here’s the new stuff:

Above: double-sided Mega Man and Street Fighter t-shirts ($25 each).

And a couple of highlights and items that have been restocked:

 

It’s worth reiterating these are just the new and restocked highlights. You can also expect to see the wide range of awesome good you’ve been seeing at previous events.

You can find the Capcom Store (and main game demo stations) at the PAX showfloor, booth #3103 , and I’ll be at the Handheld Lounge hosting some  Monster Hunter  community activities .

MMLC Robot Master List: Tomahawk Man

Aug 27, 2015 // GregaMan

Number: DWN-046

Weapon:  Silver Tomahawk

Weakness:  Plant Barrier

A robot developed for combat. His Silver Tomahawk’s dead angle is covered with a jump attack, but you can slide under him when he does it.

I’ve got a lot of respect for Tomahawk Man. He’s stern, imposing, stylish as a boss (and he is a boss), and despite being created solely to compete a high-tech robot fighting tournament, he relies only on a trusty Tomahawk and some feathers.

It’s as though he is deliberately eschewing the reliance on technology so common throughout the Mega Man universe. Fitting, then, perhaps, that his one weakness is the power of nature itself, found in the form of Plant Man’s Plant Barrier. But using this effectively will require you to get up close and personal, so you better mean it.

Once you’ve beaten him, the Silver Tomahawk is yours!

David Oxford   (The Mega Man Network)
I don’t know what it is, but there’s just something about Tomahawk Man’s design that screams “awesome” to me. Maybe it’s the extravagant, colorful design, which the NES could only render a small part of. Interesting thing, too: When you look at him closely, the blue chin guard kind of makes him look like Flash Man.

Or maybe it’s how functional the design is, from the Silver Tomahawk on one arm to the huge, flowing feathered headdress, which is also a weapon in itself. Speaking of which, his weapon carries a nice arc which is handy for hitting foes that are not only far away, but well above your normal range as well.
I’d also be remiss if I didn’t mention that his stage is one of my favorites in the series, playing up an old “wild west, but with robots” motif, complete with the robot cowboy TV actor Coltons. In addition to the great music, there’s a cool shimmering sunset background later on in his stage that apparently looked good enough for Nintendo to use it in their commercial for the game and top-loading NES.
