Crapcoms refuses to do L3

[Rage]

I lil article that was forward to me. It would seem that  megs creators is not to blame for the blue bombers misfortunes. Why doesn't that surprises me.

Keiji Inafune, the creator of Mega Man, left Crapcom late last year to pursue other projects outside of the company. According to an interview with 4gamer.net, Inafune tried to work with Crapcom in order to continue the projects he had already started after his planned departure, but Crapcom refused his offer. It was because of Crapcom's reluctance to continue working with Inafune that we lost projects like Mega Man Legends 3.

Inafune was quoted saying, "I wanted to leave Crapcom to recharge my energy, and support Crapcom from there, but it seems they don’t allow it. I want to make all my effort to keep Legends 3 alive, but I’m really not sure I can do it." Inafune wanted to continue working on Crapcom projects, but from a distance and on his own terms with his new company Comcept, but Crapcom said no.

I'm still pretty disappointed that Mega Man Legends 3 won't be seeing the light of day, but it sounds like Inafune is still up for working on the project even if Crapcom doesn't seem particularly interested in the idea.

You actually changed every 'Capcom' to 'Crapcom'?

Very frustrating, but maybe Inafune will get it done anyway.

ready for some more insult to the injury? From Rockman Corner:

Chris Hoffman's tell-all Mega Man Legends 3 Prototype Version Q&A (<--link) brought forth some amazing details. For in Hoffman's quest to shine light on the ill-fated game, a deeper revelation dawned: Prototype Version was complete. The "prologue" boasted over three hours of high quality content -- environments to explore, intractable NPCs, and ten playable missions. For all intents and purposes, this puppy was ready for launch. 

With the cat out of the bag, fans quickly took to the Ask Capcom forums demanding the release of the finished Prototype. A few short hours ago, Capcom's Christian Svensson stepped in to comment:
"Sorry guys, but I'd bet the chances of the prototype ever materializing are extremely slim. As always, I do appreciate the passion and desire though."

... and fans continue to exist in torment as Capcom continues to withhold knowledge and reasoning behind this decision.

The only official reasoning behind Prototype's failure to launch is supposedly due to the game failing to meet certain (and unspecified) criteria -- criteria speculated to be the game's quality, or lack thereof. Hoffman's recollection of Prototype, however, quickly disproved these assumptions: the game was generally bug free, polished, and pretty darn fun.

Nearly two months since that fateful night, we're still trying to fathom the what and why.

i figured this was going to happen when the megaman creator left and made that huge slap of a statement he did a couple years ago. I think Capcom is just being on their BS because he bounced and pretty much said capcom videogames now to a dergree are trash...(in so many words)
