    USB drives are everywhere. Chances are you have one on you right now. Hell, I stepped on one on my floor last night walking to go get some Pop Tarts. So it takes a special kind of design to get me to want to buy a new one and actually take care of it.

    Behold! The Mega Buster USB drive.

    Capcom will be selling these beauties next week for 20 bucks a pop and it will come pre-loaded with all kinds of Mega Man goodness. You will get a link to download the Street Fighter X Mega Man game, soundtrack, wallpapers and two digital art books.

    You want it, just admit it. It’s easier when you admit things.

    Capcom has revealed the release date and released a new trailer for their upcoming game Remember Me.

    The game is being developed by Dontnod Entertainment takes place in the year 2087 and stars Nilin, a memory hunter whose memory has been erased for some unknown reason. She must piece together past events to discover who is behind this. The combat is very reminiscent of the Rocksteady Batman games which should have this on your radar.

    The game was a surprise at E3 2012 and wowed the crowd.

    We are only one day removed from Sony’s announcement of the Playstation 4 and still months away from E3 and already the console has a modest, but very good lineup of games. Ubisoft, Sucker Punch, Guerrilla and even Square showed their future titles and it was enough to get this gamer excited for this fall when the PS4 comes home. Here are the games we know of so far:

    Killzone: Shadow Fall (Guerrilla)

    Infamous: Second Son (Sucker Punch)

    Watch Dogs (Ubisoft)

    Knack (Studio Japan)

    Diablo 3 (Blizzard)

    Drive Club (Evolution)

    Final Fantasy (Square)

    Destiny (Bungie)

    The Witness (Thekla)

    Deep Down (Capcom)

    The Witcher 3 (CD Projekt RED)

    Sony also said that a plethora of studios are already pledging support for the PS4. Instead of listing them all check out a screenshot of last night’s event and see that every major player is going to be involved with developing for the next Playstation.

    Capcom has revealed that the upcoming port of Resident Evil: Revelations will support the gamepad only play feature on the Wii U. You know, the feature that lets you play the game on the Wii U gamepad….kind of like playing it on a 3DS…the system it is being ported from. Thus is the circle of Capcom double dipping.

    Revelations was a fun 3DS game and is being given the HD treatment with new weapons and characters for the console release.

    This new video from the developer diary of Capcom’s newest IP Remember Me interviews composer Olivier Deriviere as he explains the inspiration for the sound in this futuristic tale. The score will be played by the historic London Philharmonia. You also get some new peeks at the gameplay.

  • Devil May Cry New DLC Aims To Shut Up Complainers

    DmC-Costume-Pack-Classic-Dante

     

    Despite garnering great reviews (currently it is an 86 on Metacritic), the new [amazon_link id=”B007UM59AC” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Devil May Cry[/amazon_link] still has its detractors in the form of fans who apparently refuse to play the game because hero Dante underwent a makeover and lost his white locks of hair and appeared more goth than previous entries in the series.

    Capcom has decided to placate these fans by releasing a Costume Pack DLC which will offer three new outfits for Dante including one that makes him appear as he did in previous Devil May Cry’s. The developers did not give people the full monty because the character will only switch to “classic” Dante while he is in “Devil Trigger” mode. So take it and be happy (at least that’s how I imagine Ninja Theory saying it).

    The Costume Pack DLC will cost $4 (320 MS Points).

  • Resident Evil: Revelations Getting A Console Release

    rev1

    [amazon_link id=”B0050SVLI2″ target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Resident Evil: Revelations[/amazon_link] is making the jump from 3DS to consoles. The handheld adventure released last year for Nintendo’s 3DS and sold well enough (or bad enough) to warrant a port over to home consoles. The game will release on May 21st for Xbox 360, PS3, Wii and PC.

    The game will receive an HD upgrade (duh) as well as new playable characters, new weapons and difficulty level not found in the handheld version.

  • Classic Mega Man Headed To 3DS

    As part of Mega Man’s 25th anniversary Capcom has announced that Mega Man 1-6 will be coming to the 3DS via the Nintendo eShop for the first time in North America. The original Mega Man will be released on December 27th with Mega Man 2 following on February 7th. Games 3-6 will be released throughout 2013.

    So get ready, because if you were known for throwing your controller while playing Mega Man 2 (raises hand) you better show more restraint or a new 3DS will be in your future.
