An E-Tank Full of Every Classic Mega Man Song

Did any classic gaming series have better music than Mega Man? Answer: no. And now, according to Andriasang, Capcom is revving up to celebrate the audio history of the Blue Bomber with a totally awesome CD collection. The cause of the celebration? Mega Man’s 25th anniversary, of course.

The collection, which will be available through e-Capcom, contains 10 discs with every track from Mega Man 1-10. For Mega Man 1-6, that includes both the original Famicom/NES versions of the songs as well as the upgraded PlayStation rerelease versions from the late ‘90s. The CDs come bundled in a steel case E-Tank replica that, unfortunately, won’t refill your health bar.

Complete soundtracks from the following games are included:

• Mega Man (NES, 1987)
• Mega Man 2 (NES, 1988)
• Mega Man 3 (NES, 1990)
• Mega Man 4 (NES, 1991)
• Mega Man 5 (NES, 1992)
• Mega Man 6 (NES, 1993)
• Mega Man 7 (SNES, 1995)
• Mega Man 8 (PSX/SAT, 1996)
• Mega Man 9 (Wii/PSN/XBLA, 2008)
• Mega Man 10 (Wii/PSN/XBLA, 2010)

The collection will be available beginning September 19th, and will cost 14,700 Yen, or roughly $180.

Lost Planet Spinoff EX Troopers Revealed Ads By Google » Blog Tags Today's Most Popular Videos »

Lost Planet 3 is no longer the only upcoming game set in Capcom's sci-fi universe; it is now joined by EX Troopers, which Famitsu reveals (via Andriasang) is coming to PlayStation 3 and Nintendo 3DS. The game features an anime-inspired visual style, a marked change from the more realistic look of the core Lost Planet games.

A subsequent update from Andriasang reveals that the game follows Bren Turner, a young cadet who comes to finish his schooling at the academy on EDN-3rd. There are three bases on the planet which you'll choose from for your base of operations, with each one offering different benefits. The game also features "manga demo" cut scenes to tell the story, in a manner that is apparently similar to Gravity Rush.

That's about all there is to say on the game now, but Capcom fans in Tokyo will get to go hands-on with EX Troopers on June 30 and July 1, 2012 at the annual Capcom Summer Jam. Don't be surprised if we also hear something before then, by way of E3 2012.
