What is it?

Mega Man 8-bit Deathmatch is a new multiplayer game that aims to take Mega Man’s 8-bit style gameplay and turn it into an online multiplayer first person shooter. Everything you know and love from the classic series will appear in lovely 3d with 8-bit textures and sprites. You will be able to pick from any of your favourite Robot Masters from Mega Man 1 through 6, as well as find and use their weapons scattered around levels. With it’s intense battles, unique style, various game modes and huge amount of weapons and levels, MM8BDM is sure to please Mega Man and old school FPS fans alike. This is no fancy art project! Get your Mega Busters ready, this Skulltag powered mod is coming 2010!

Basically, it's a Doom Mod made in Skulltag (which is itself based on ZDoom. I think.) based on NES Mega Man games. There's a demo out with working multiplayer, but the full version is going to be released on friday. Hell, there's going to be an actual countdown until release on the creator's livestream.

So, my fellow Bay12ers, ready your busters, load up your Variable Weapons Systems, and prepare for some nostalgic 8-bit combat.

There comes a time when you must take off the soft, furry slippers of a boy and put on the shoes of a man.
Unless of course they don't fit properly and your feet blister up like bubble wrap.
Oh ho ho, but don't try to return the shoes, because they won't take them back once you've worn them.
Especially if that fat pig Tony is at the desk.
