Mega Man Legends is a game that has averted the chance from jumping from 2D technology to 3D technology. This has happened courtesy the implementation of RPG technology. The developer Capcom did come out with a lot of mindless sequels, but now it seems like they have finally hit the bulls-eye with the new game that has captured the attention of gamers all throughout.

This game was touted to be a real eye turner and has proved out to be one. The way the game commences, finishes and is played shows that it easily gets into the 2D mode better than any one. The surprising element is that the game has been in the gaming market for over a decade but could never make an impression. With some change in features and in interface, the MegaMan Legends PSP version has certainly done something which no other game could do. The blue buddy is the main protagonist who is controlled by the gamer with the character being navigated through a 3D world full of extensive landscapes and inherited towns. Blue buddy has suitable company in the form of Roll, his sister, Barrel the Grandpa and Data the adorable monkey.

There is a huge assortment of armaments which the Mega Man can make use of apart from jumping, kicking, diving and retaliating. The character can also be given external additions like the buster arms, rapid fire and increase in energy. Mega Man Legends certainly has shown a lot of variations in the past couple of editions. The PlayStation Portable game is reasonably priced and should be played because of its sheer entertaining capability.

This game is one of the good two dimensional fighter games on the PlayStation Portable. The Darkstalkers Chronicle: The Chaos Tower is similar to the Dreamcast version Vampire Chronicle for Matching Service. Those who have played the Dreamcast version of this game may find the controls a bit of an issue here on the PSP.

For example, there are no icons for characters that changes as you choose different styles of fighting. The Tower mode is an interesting addition on PSP which provides for enhanced challenge. This mode resembles a tournament mode and you take the help of three of your own characters to fight a whole lot of characters. The catch here is there is no health bar after each fight with the help of which you can recharge or refill. Often you find yourself stranded without certain important abilities like punch, kick and jump.

You therefore have to choose match ups with discretion depending on the character you are going to fight with next. You also have to ration your health among the three as you continue fighting. In other words, you fight as long as you are able to survive.

As you win fights, you unlock exciting character arts which complement the cool, stylish and neat characters. Character designing, in fact, is the highlight of Darkstalkers Chronicle: The Chaos Tower. In keeping with Capcom’s creativity, character interpretation is excellent providing players with an awesome feeling playing with monsters. The Dracula for example is equipped with a superman-like physique.

The basic mode of the game offers you a choice of seven deadly battles, eighteen characters and three versions of the Darkstalkers game. Considering the game revolves heavily around your ability to perform the fireball swivel move, the controls are not good enough to enable you perform this move effortlessly, making it highly frustrating. The directional pad of the PSP is a major obstacle in this regard splashing cold water on the enjoyment it could have otherwise provided.

Sound and graphics are excellent making up for any flaws in the control. With the Wi-Fi connectivity, you can play from two PSPs and two copies of the game effortlessly. On the whole this Capcom game is quite a satisfying one you can enjoy on your favourite PSP.

Another great title for you to revisit the 80’s is the Capcom Classic Collection Reloaded. The Capcom Classics Collection Reloaded is a 19 game port, with some of the old Capcom classics. One could call this an upgraded version of the Capcom Classics Collection Remixed.

The PS2 version of this omnibus got a well-appreciated nod from Yoshiki Okamoto, the creator of most of these titles, and Okamoto’s titles contribute greatly to the success of the series. Some of his games are considered true legends, like the 1942, 1943 and 1943 Kai are some of the best shooters of their time.

Let’s not forget Pirate Ship Higemaru, which is basically a renewed, addictive version of the SEGA Pengo. I don’t even have to tell you about Street Fighter II included in the Capcom Classics Collection Reloaded edition, as it is probably one of the best game series of all time. For those true fans out there, you’ll be happy to know that Street Fighter II isn’t alone, but is accompanied by two other versions, namely the Champion Edition and the Hyper Fighting version.

The rest of the collection also has some great titles, such as Ghouls ‘n Goblins and Gun Smoke. Games like Mercs and Commando add to the fun. Games like Volgus and Son Son don’t quite match up to the others but are still fun to play from time to time.

There were some drops made to the game list too… four to be precise. The collection doesn’t have Trojan, Section Z, Final Fight and Forgotten Worlds, which are instead replaced by some PSP exclusive additions, King of Dragons, Eco Fighters, and Knights of the Round.

Knights of the round can be called one of the coolest games in the collection. It is a side scrolling hack n’ slash, and one of the first games that upgrades characters based on experience points.

Capcom Classics Collection Reloaded is great because it offers so many features that others don’t and it has some great hardcore settings for the hardcore gamers to experience the best of each game. Old school gamers will find this game to be way better than it’s predecessor in terms of list of games, and in general, with menus and the works.

Handheld devices have seen tons of old school games compiled into a single disc. Capcom Classics Collection Remixed is no exception. The Capcom Classics Collection Remixed is a collection of some of Capcom’s finest classics into a single UMD for the average PSP user.

These compilations don’t just give gamers a lot of variety to choose from, but also have that feeling of nostalgia, and is a great history lesson for those interested to learn what gaming has evolved from.

Capcom Classics Collection Remixed was already a compilation way back from 2005, before it reached the PlayStation Portable. It’s counterpart on the Xbox and PS2 even missed out on a lot of games, like 1941, Captain Commando, Magic Sword and Strider, that weren’t included in their versions.

Capcom has done well to emulate the games perfectly on the PSP, down to every last detail. Credit for this translation goes to Digital Eclipse, again. Load times are also awesome… it amounts to about 12 – 15 second to load a game, and no more loads till you switch titles.

Capcom has also thrown in some bonuses, such as unlockable artwork, game history and even some gameplay tips. Multiplayer wasn’t left out of the Capcom Classics Collection Remixed edition either. On the contrary, its easy interface is one of the coolest features of the collection. It locates buddies faster than any game on the PSP, and has easy options for leaving and entering a game with the touch of a button.

As in all collections, some games don’t match up to the standards of others, but the other games in the title make up for their lack of entertainment.

The collection includes 20 games, including 1941, Forgotten Worlds, Black Tiger, Bionic Commando, Strider, Speed Rumbler, Quiz & Dragons, the original Street Fighter, Mega Twins, Last Duel and the likes.

To conclude, the Capcom Classics Collection Remixed is a great choice for Capcom fans and casual gamers alike, providing hours of entertainment, and some great multiplayer choices. It has it’s own ups and downs in terms of included titles, but the Ups overshadow the downs enough to keep you wanting more.

In an attempt to provide an interesting puzzle game, Capcom has gifted a wonderful piece of work to the PSP. Capcom’s combined efforts with the developer Sensory Sweep have given us a great puzzle game that includes a set of five.

The Capcom Puzzle World is basically a set of fighter games, full of adventure and thrill. Along with the Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo, the set also includes the two new modes that make it even more entertaining. Basically designed for fun-loving gamers, Capcom Puzzle World (PSP) allows players to create different patterns, like custom attacks, along with controlling the characters or rather fighters.

The game offers an option of personalized content and a screenshot mode, giving it more exceptional features. You can also unlock bonus content, as well as customize the Buster Bros. collection. Moreover, it is the first PSP game that allows you to take snap shots at any moment by stopping the game in between. Then there is ‘Block Block’ that is an all new concept for a block genre.

However, the key differences between the previous modes and the Capcom Puzzle World are evident. Buster Buddies launches ultimate characters while the Super Buster Bros. The game introduces a long-lasting panic mode as well. The challenging games are altered to fit the PSP screens. The music is also very catchy and leaves no room for boredom, but rather completely captures your attention in managing the awesome creatures while solving puzzles.

The Super Puzzle Fighter II version is especially appealing to the American fans with its alternate modes and special orbs. This makes it a fun to clear the gems and win more points. Nevertheless, you don’t get to directly control the super fighter, as they act appropriately in following your puzzle actions. It is also worth considering that the fighters selected by you will have a direct impact on the colors of the counter gems.

Try your hands on the game to see how well you can apply your brains in navigating through the Capcom world.

Capcom is well known as the king and founder of fast paced animated fighting games. Their start in Street Fighter has expanded to countless other arcade fighting titles. Two of these star fighting titles, Power Stone and Power Stone 2, have now been reunited into one classic game for the PSP: Power Stone Collection.

All the characters from the previous games are included. These include the dashing biplane pilot (Falcon), the kung fu disciple (Wang Tang), the top knotted Samurai (Ryoma), Arabian Princes (Rouge) and the native American called Galuda. Sometimes the characters and dynamics in Power Stone Collection (PSP) come off as completely bizarre, but this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Obviously Power Stone is a game in which to characters fight against each other until one wins. Each character is stuffed with similar abilities, including simple melee attacks, grappling abilities, and also the ability to pick up and throw environmental items. Weapons and power ups, such as Gatling guns, giant hammers, Molotov cocktails, bazookas, baseball bats, and swords are regularly available in the arena.

Each arena varies in sizes and shapes, and comes with its own unique environmental hazards, which have an effect on the fighting. But the most interesting and exciting elements of the title are its power stones. As you start off there’s only a single power stone in your possession and landing an attack on the enemy successfully will knock it out of them. Three power stone collections will lead to the triggering of the transformation effect. This will result in temporarily changing your player’s costume and imbuing them with incredible powers. In terms of graphics and sound the title is superb. If you are a fan of Capcom and wacky fighting games, then this could be for you.

The famous Capcom Co. Ltd. game developing and publishing company based in Japan has carved a niche for itself in the field of video games. Founded in 1979 with the name of Japan Capsule Computers, the firm has devoted its services to the development of video games and other electronic machines.

In the past few years, Capcom has created some video games which have been some of the highest selling and longest running titles in history. Games like Street Fighter, Mega Man and Resident Evil have all been gigantic hits on either Nintendo or PlayStation consoles. Some of these successful titles have even made their way to the PSP, such as MegaMan Maverick Hunter X (PSP). Following the success of the game Resident Evil, a motion picture was made with the same name which was followed by two sequels. Capcom went into partnership with Microsoft to make the game Dead Rising, exclusively for the latter’s brainchild, the Xbox 360.

Caption Commando is the original mascot of Capcom who dons a futuristic armor of an untraced origin. His name has played a very instrumental part in the derivation of the CapCom. He has made several appearances in manuals and on the back covers of the early NES games released by the company. Many storylines prepared by the firm have included Captain Commando. But of late, Mega Man has been given the torch of being the company’s official mascot because of the popularity of the character.

The game developing department of CapCom is headed by the CapCom Production Studio. The company also owns other subsidiaries and related corporations like CapCom USA Inc., CapCom Studio 8, CapCom Asia Co., which are located in parts of America, South Asia, Europe and Australia.

The reputation that precedes the company ensures that it gets good coverage from the media whenever it is about to release a game. Many games developed by CapCom have actually been made into feature films, including both Street Fighter and Resident Evil. Devil May Cry and Clock Tower are two other CapCom games that are in the process of being converted into movies.
