PoV: Why do I hate Capcom right now

First, they showed us a stupid looking Dante in the upcoming Devil May Cry reboot, then, we have another case of absolute milkage of their fighting game, the whole save system debacle and to top it all off, the surprise cancellation of Mega Man Legends 3.

The reason for the cancelation of the 3DS project?

"From the outset, the MML3 Project was intended to give gamers across the world insight and input into the development process. Part of this process includes and assessment of whether the title will go into full production, and is based on a number of criteria with input from different setors of the company," said Capcom.

"Unfortunately it was not felt that the Mega Man Legends 3 Project met the required criteria, and it is with regret that we must announce that the Mega Man Legends 3 Project has been cancelled, meaning that Capcom will not be releasing the Prototype or the full game. Additionally, updates of the Mega Man Legends Developer Room will cease as of today, though the North American Developer room and its forums will remain open indefinitely."

The reasons given by Capcom are quite vague, but it seems they are pointing outing the fairly obvious reasoning - if this game can make a money or not. It's another depressing reality that we have to face as a gamer nowadays, with most of the publishers primary goal is to make a profit out of the consumers.

How about you guys? What's you thought on Capcom's recent decisions as of late? Share your thoughts below or continue the discussion at the forums.

PoV: Why do people care about your bias opinions?

While I agree with this statement, I feel Capcom has made a huge mistake. If they had released the PV and only got 15k downloads, then maybe I could understand the cancellation. But it seems like an incredible waste of resources and time to develop it, then not ever release it claiming they didn't need to release it to know that no one was interested in it.

Yes, I Think Capcom is over priced and over rated. The games are the same thing over and over and not that great, only a couple good games have ever come out by Capcom. :-*

you know what, this POV article is dumb, people maybe complain about re-releases like super street fighter 4 and what not. but its for a reason and there only selling em for 40 which means new players will buy to, its a good thing marvel vs capcom is doin it cuz there roster sucks they need to bring back megaman and some of the other older roster. devil may cry, can be good dont judge on you not liking dontes appearance. megaman legends 3, they picked the dumbest platform for it anyways, 3ds over ps3 or even vita? it wasnt getting anywheere from the start, only thing i dont like that they are doin is dissing Megaman, even tho he was one of capcoms biggest characters and could still be if they attemp a next 3d megaman game more modern like legends but atleast oon ps3 or vita, because thats the only way they'll make money in all regions, and street fighter X tekken, is amazing so far so you cant be dissing em, cuz at the end of the day if you play fighting games im sure you will play that

Seems like everywhere blog, forum, site I go, there's bias towards something. I thought when making articles, unless it's a personal blog, that one should keep their feelings out of what they write, and not fill it with I hate this, or I love that.

Anyone know any Gaming Site that doesn't have bias on every article? Other than Kotaku, cuz that one has some bias too. ^0^

i think they figured it out that they cant re tweek and add features and then release it again like they are doing with their fighting franchise, well there is ssf33s next month so all is good, but its a shame that they do all that work and then they give up, if they think they are not gonna make any money well they shouldnt even start with a project and give hope to fans and then stick a big one up every ones behind...

are you aware megaman legends 3 wasnt even started as of the day it was cancelled they were working on a proto type demo to sell thats not apart of the actual game, but they are jus DISRESPECTING all the Megaman fans, no megaman in Marvel vs Capcom 3 even tho he is one of the originals, cancel megaman universe and legends smh thats my only beef with capcom, it seems like theyre killing megaman off

Don't hate, appreciate. Though I can agree about Dante's Appearance (He looks like he can't take a hit.) But to bash Capcom as a whole is just... wrong IMO. Honestly the omly thing I have left from Capcom is Resident Evil, since they apparently shot my precious Onimusha dead 5 years ago with Dawn of Dreams. A reboot of THAT would be cool.

If they are not going to make mega man games anymore and just cancel all the one they start. They should sell/give the mega man rights to someone else who will make use of the brand.

exactly, i love the whole megaman series and especially the X series but as a whole, and what they do is release 2 new games as nintendo graphics then stop doin megaman -__- i think they should sell him to someone who will actually put use to him also

probably they cancelled it because they cant do another1 in 4months of the same game. capcom jus milks all of there title games u buy this half game then if u want the full game u pay via DLC but wait,if u wait 2or4 months later u can buy the same game wit the DLC in. i think people luv to get got by curtain we'll milk u so hard developers an or companies jus 2 see how far they can go with there products. i lol at people when they buy a capcom fighting games an other titles ''RE''

They should have just given the rights to Infaune. At least he would've still release MML3 regardless of sales. Think is its sad to see what the gaming industry has become now. They're making games only for profit and if there is no profit there is no game. That is why new IPs are struggling because no gaming company wants to take a risk on something new just to have it flop. I loved Capcom as a company but until they started this whole milking franchises idea and now canceled numerous MegaMan projects I'm starting to think they're just sending a message to Infaune for leaving.Come on Megaman was in the first 2 Marvel vs Capcom and suddenly he is not in 3 for no apparent reason? I can rant on and on but I tell you this much Capcom won't get any of my money unless it has Megaman in it. :sigh:

The MVC3 is even more annoying. Ultimate MVC3 is out somewhere in Novemember iirc, and MVC just came out this past March -_-. I won't be surprised if there's something like a UMVC3:AE or w/e.

Milkage of a fighting game? Fuck off QJ. You want milkage? How about Street Fighter 4. You PAY for BALANCE UPDATES. All MvC3 did was add new characters and such; essentially, it's the Exact same thing as Dissidia and Dissidia Duodecim on the PSP.

Why is it that all of your POV articles are either all-out stupid or show a complete lack of common sense?

Add to that Monster Hunter 3 cancellation back in 2007 for the PS3, and not porting MH Frontier to NA\EU.
