New screenshots of Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom, an in-development Capcom crossover game, have surfaced, courtesy of Famitsu magazine. In these screens, a Mega Man Legends/Tron Bonne stage is clearly visible, with Servbots scurrying around in the background as well. Could this hint at more Mega Man representation in the future of the Capcom Vs. titles?

Earlier today, the oekaki board reached an important moment of it's history as the 10,000th picture was submitted by Worenx. For the record, the board was first made available during Summer 2001, and currently holds over 7210 pictures contributed by many, many people. Be sure to join if you're an artist who enjoys drawing Mega Man characters!

As a reminder, half of May has gone away: that means that you have about two weeks left to enter the mini-contest. Remember to jump in to get a chance to win a 20$ Amazon.com gift card!

Welcome people, and gather around as we celebrate the Mega Man PC Website: Dr. Cossack's Lab eighth anniversary! This year was a bit special as two long-awaited projects were made available. First of all, the Rockboard translation was finally completed, giving you access to one of the very few non-translated Mega Man games. Second, the ever-requested resume feature was added to the oekaki board to allow people to spread out a drawing over several days, if not weeks.

The oncoming year should be as interesting. The first obvious addition is the mini-contest annonced a few days ago only. Who knows, if this one goes well enough, a second one could be planned! There's another major feature underway for this website, which has yet to be unveiled. Stay tuned!

Continuing its long-standing tradition of making far more sequels than are necessary, Capcom has set up a preview page for the third installment in the Star Force series (Ryusei no Rockman in Japan).

There's not much there as of right now, aside from a fancy flash page and a downloadable wallpaper. But, now we know it's coming. And if you have any sense, you'll probably see Star Force 4 coming from a mile away, as well.

May 2008 is the website's anniversary, and as such, I'm now announcing a new drawing event on the oekaki board: a mini-contest!

This one is quite a bit different from the last contest done on this website, hence the name "mini-contest". Instead of a challenge based on skill, this is a challenge based on participation and luck: anyone who submits a valid picture through the month, which fits with the given theme, will be entered to win a 20$ Amazon.com gift card. This gives a chance to win to anyone interested enough in participating. The full details, along with what is considered a "valid picture", are available in the latest oekaki board announcement.

The contest begins now and ends on May 31st, 2008 at 23:59:59 according to Eastern time.

To everyone who decides to enter: good luck!
