Mega Man 2.5D is the coolest thing you will see in 200X

This is creepy. Through the mystical force of the Internet, I have discovered a video so awesome it has the power to magically control your finger to hit the Caps Lock and immediately type exclamations like “OMG!” and “DO WANT!” in the comments. I know it’s hard to believe, but you have to trust me on this.* Mixing 2D sprites with dizzying 3D environments, YouTube user wartwartx has created an incredible 2.5D update of NES classic Mega Man 2 that really needs to be seen to be believed. Sadly, only one level (Metal Man) is on display, but, again, it is awesome enough to unleash its ...

I know what you’re thinking… WTF is this guy talking about?! Well, thanks to the wonderful world of computers, Youtube’s wartwartx has managed to make me wet myself on more than one occasion today. By intermixing 2D sprites with 3D graphics, good ol’ wartwartx over here managed ...
"Paper Mega Man" Concept Lacks Soul
Press The Buttons —
What if the Super Paper Mario concept were applied to other beloved video game franchises? That's the question that Mega Man fan Peter Sjostrand has attempted to tackle in this video clip of an imagined "Paper Mega Man" game in which the blue bomber explores the classic Metal Man stage from Mega Man 2 in a 2.5D take on blasting robots and learning the patterns behind disappearing bricks, something that has to be even more baffling and frustrating in an extra half of a dimension.
I can see what Peter is ...
Mega Man 2.5D demo breaks our hearts in two-and-a-half dimensions
Joystiq —
We've seen Capcom's beloved blue bomber tackle misanthropic Robot Masters on a single plane. We've seen him bust hard-hatted Mets in 3D with the Mega Man Legends series. Graphic designer Peter Sjostrand recently introduced a bold dimensional direction for the series to exploit: Both 2D and 3D. Or is it neither? We ...
Video: Mega Man 2.5D - AWESOME

Yes, yes we all know that I love retro. You make a pixelated turd and I'd probably encase it in lucite and proudly place it on my shelf. Okay so I already did that and I call it my Virtual Boy. I love that giant red steaming pile.
My love for all things old, or resembling anything old aside, I love ...
Video: Mega Man 2 in Nearly 3-D
Wired: Game|Life —
Mega Man started life in 2-D on the NES, went on to three dimensions in Mega Man Legends, hopped back to 2.5-D with Mega Man Powered Up, and now, thanks to Swedish animator Peter Sjöstrand, the Blue Bomber appears in something of an amalgam of all three.
The "Mega Man 2.5D Single Player Demo" depicts a recreation of Mega Man 2, only while it retains the 8-bit aesthetic of the NES classic, the environment around our hero has real depth.
Though gameplay seems to mimic its inspiration, the addition of a swooping camera and constantly shifting angles makes ...
