The Mega Man series (including all its spin-offs) have featured some really incredible bosses. While the Blue Bomber has of course spent most of his time fighting these poor bastards, we here at Leviathyn decided to flip the equation. What three Robot Masters, Maverics or general Mega Man ne’er-do’wells would you like to have fighting with you? We polled our ... Read More »
Throughout its life, the PlayStation Portable has seen its fair share of remakes and ports. Two such remakes were that of the original Mega Man and Mega Man X. These weren’t just the same games with a slightly different look; these were re-imaginings. For both, the stories were largely intact with a few changes thrown in here there that worked ...

We still may have one day left in Mega Man week but that doesn’t mean we can’t thank our supporter already. We rushed the concept of the Theme Event, to be honest. It was brought up last Friday, planned on Saturday, and announced on Sunday. I had e-mailed Capcom to let them know about Mega Man being picked as our ... Read More »
I wrote earlier this week about my affinity for the Battle Network/EXE series. I had some good times with it and along with the gripping gameplay there were some really memorable tunes. Every game had the same sound but every time they managed to twist it just enough to make it fresh and exciting. Whether it was new battle themes, ... Read More »

Sure the premise of the game is to stop Sigma from dropping a space colony on the Earth (Hail Zeon! Am I ... Read More »
Mega Man has fought and stopped Dr. Wily’s plans for what seems like ages. Each time the doctor is brought to justice and incarcerated. Despite the swift servings of justice, Dr. Wily always returns with the same ambitions. Why is it, that in a world so advanced, this one man can cause so much trouble? Mega Man 7’s ending is ...

It’s Mega Man themed week here at Leviathyn. Personally, I didn’t play much of the Mega Man titles. I played two or three different classic games, and one of the battle network Gameboy Advanced games. Even though I wasn’t by any means a huge Mega Man fan, I still understood the importance of the series, and what it’s done for ... Read More »
Two Leviathyn writers go head-to-head to determine which Mega Man series rules them all. Read More »
For a “Top Ten Mega Man Music” list such as this, I was TRYING to take one song from each game and list them one to ten. Since there’s ten games, it would work perfectly, right? Then I realized that the music in the earlier games is far superior to the later stuff. So I may be leaving a couple ... Read More »
