News: Mega Man has moved onto the PS2 thanks to Capcom releasing Mega Man X7.

Capcom has carried the Mega Man franchise to the PlayStation 2 with the release of Mega Man X7. The game stars Mega Man as well as his trusted friend, Zero, and takes players into a full 3-D environment where different traits from the series come together to deliver an all-encompassing sequel boasting the following features:

╖ Player Change Ц Switch between your main and sub characters at any time to effectively defeat enemies and progress through the game.
╖ Transforming gameplay Ц Depending on the area, the player will experience the game in different perspectives. This can range from a traditional 2D scrolling title to 1/4 overhead view similar to popular strategy based games. Players will also experience many boss battles set in a 3D action perspective similar to that of Capcom's acclaimed Mega Man Legends series. Traditional 2D stages are not only made into full 3D polygons but it also adds dimensional twists to the gameplay.
╖ Auto Lock-on System Ц Players can quickly lock onto an enemy within attack range. They can also change targets and aim at an enemy's weak spot.
╖ A Mysterious New Character named УAxlФ Ц Axl will have a unique ability unlike any other and add more strategic elements to the game.
