My inbox has seen a string of tips about "Mega Man Zero Burst", a title purportedly outed by the OFLC. Unfortunately I bring bubble-bursting bad news: it's not a new Zero title. No, no; not in the slightest.
Occasionally we'll see games prematurely "leaked" from the OFLC. The rating for "Mega Man Zero Burst" appeared on June 19th, leaving some fans to believe it was an unannounced Zero title.
In actuality, "Mega Man Zero Burst" is an unlicensed Windows app -- published by the aptly named l33j00n325 -- that looks a little something like this:
Oh yeah.
The Microsoft Store description reads, "Play Bejeweled with all the favorite characters from Megaman Zero: Zero, Ciel, Megaman X, and the Four Guardians, Harpuia, Leviathan, Fafnir, and Phantom!"
So yeah; it's an unlicensed Bewjeweld clone with a horrible, horrible coat of Zero paint. Why an OFLC rating exists is beyond me. However, I'd like to add the OFLC is teeming with oddly-named, unofficial Mega Man games:
"Angry Red Sun" is my favorite. 'Nuff said.
Thanks for the tips, guys. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news!
Phew, that's good. I liked the Zero series & after 4 always felt that there was no need for another. The story has a beginning, middle, & end. No need to ever make a MMZ5, or a prequel game, or anything like that for that series. All it ever needed is just those 4 games ( and also the collection of the 4 games on DS if you want to get technical)
ReplyDeleteWhat about the Elf Wars?, my little nephew always asks me about those years between X5 And Zero games
Deleteelf war happened hundred year before Zero1. because of that, and the few information we have about elf wars, we can guess that if they where to make a elf war game, it would be MMX9 (a good mmx9 to firmly re-etablish the continuity between X and Zero).
DeleteIt's bizarre, you can't find anything about those 'angry' MN games and fan-devs... could they be made up in the first place? Like, faking the ammount of work?
ReplyDelete?
DeleteI think they mean were the certified just to have the title up there, but the game doesn't exist at all other than some art?
DeleteAt least there's not a Ciel Pregnant Baby Shopping Dentist Ear Surgery!

ReplyDeleteJust... just read it. "Angry Red Sun" describes it perfectly.
