Looks like you get armors to use X, Zero, and all the Guardians in the Z series. There's also a radar map, I wonder if the game is using the traditional Mega man pick a boss area set up or going down the Castlevania route(if you look at every boss shown the rooms have 2 doors). O_o

Game looks downright amazing.

Side-note: Seeker you might like this if it's open-ended it would be more like Metroid with limited exploration and survival based on your armor as opposed to your level.

Yeah, I like the whole transformation thing. Plus it's lookin' really good in all its 2D glory. I love Capcom for not letting 2D die :-)

I skipped over Z4, but I want this bad boy pretty bad.

Officially the lames boss exclaimation ever (at the 1:20 mark): "Look at mee-uh!" Crazy Japs.

The action looks hella-tight.

At this point, I'm not really convinced that they'll come up with anything better than Z2/Z3 so far as action gameplay go so I hope they'd, for once, explain what the heck happened to the Guardians and how the whole Dark Elf arc ended, since this game is clearly supposed to take place after the Z series.

While they're at it, they could finish the destined Zero vs X battle that's only been hinted since about 15 games ago.

Hmmmm, I haven't ever really been a Megaman fan but this game actually looks really cool. I'm probably going to have to pick it up =)

It looks like 2D platformers are really making a strong comeback this year.
