Has Dr. Light really turned to the dark side? Well, that's what Dr. Wily tells the whole world in Mega Man 9, the latest entry in the long-running action platformer series. When robots - including Dr. Light's own creations - go on a rampage all over the world, it's up to Mega Man and clear Dr. Light's name.

Here are just three of the robot bosses Mega Man has to face:

Concrete Man - Image 1Concrete Shot - Image 1Concrete Man:
Created to construct a dam, Concrete man can actually design a dam and supervise its entire construction. He has a stubborn personality and will tell off any lazy robots.




Weapon: Concrete Shot

Concrete shot creates a temporary foothold as soon as it touches the ground. It can also be used to stop enemies in their tracks.

Tornado Man - Image 1Tornado Blow - Image 1Tornado Man:
Works for the Weather Manipulation Office to help control and stop the formation of large storms all over the world.




Weapon: Tornado Blow

Tornado Blow launches a huge tornado that covers the entire game area. Heavy enemies will take damage, but lighter ones will be blown entirely off-screen.

Magma Man - Image 1Magma Bazooka - Image 1Magma Man:
Magma Man serves as the safety control robot at a large geothermal power plant. He is able to work in incredibly hot environments and loves to visit hot spas.




Weapon: Magma Bazooka

Magma Bazooka shoots a cluster of fireballs that spread out after launching. It can also be charged by holding down the shot button.

That's not all. We also have a huge helping of screenshots showing off Mega Man 9's decidedly old school 8-bit look. Check 'em out below. Mega Man 9 is slated for release on Wiiware, XBLA, and PSN.

I'm a MegaFan of the 2D Megaman series. Not the 3D which are crappy btw, the 2D ones. This one will bring me back. I know many ppl find it lame because of the graphics. I would like to see a improved BG on this platform, you know like Mischief Maker's background-



MS bg + Megaman action = really nice looking awesome game.
