With Comic-Con having opened its doors to the public, a number of rumors quickly sprung up concerning trouble at the Capcom booth. There have been allegations of disturbances due to the cancellation of Mega Man Legends 3, but it seems they're all nonsense.
Capcom itself has killed off a rumor that Mega Man cosplayers were being turned away from its booth by security, and that anybody who dared utter the franchise's name was to be cast out. The publisher has said that it "welcomes all cosplayers" and that anything said to the contrary is false.
Even more outrageous is the rumor that a fan punched Seth Killian in the face. This has yet to be corroborated by any official source, least of all by Seth himself, who has already let us know that his beautiful face is intact.
While it's possible that there could be trouble at Comic-Con, remember that we gamers are geeks, no matter how angry we get. Geeks are physical cowards, and so the chance of a fight starting are slim to none.

Reader#2: I think so.
Reader#3: Let's get him!!
Capcoms giving Mega man the sonic treatment it seems
And, yes, I really do think it will fail. How many people are willing to double dip on this? How many people who are interested failed to get it initially? I know there is still a group remaining, but I think we're talking low hundreds of thousands (at least domestically) rather than millions. Have fun with that community guys. I'm sure they'll fix any remaining infinite combos in either the third or fourth release of MvC3, which should be arriving in March and June, respectively. All at the low, low price of 35 dollars!
At least Sonic got games. Here's the real sad part: the few Mega Man games we get are actually good! However, they seem to be at an end....
Stereotypes!
Very well; you have insulted me for the last time. I am now pushed to resort to violence, in the form of a threatening letter in block format.
Not scared? You should be, as I intend deliver it in person! So this two hundred pound, five foot eleven manifestation of rage will go to your office space and make sure to shove this letter, envelope and stamps, right in your mailbox for review at a later time when it is most convenient to you.
Have a nice day.
lolwut¿ Not all geeks are "physical cowards". That's just a stereotype, after all I look like the class jock with my muscles even though I don't do much sports aside from snooker, swimming and hiking.
You're in for a lynching Jimmy.
There's definitely a list of people who need punching, though, and they all wear suits.
Really? You're really going to ask who's going to double dip on Marvel?
THE FUCKING FIGHTING GAME COMMUNITY YOU DUMB CUNT.
Myself included, I'd rather be playing a Capcom fighter while drinking from a mug filled to the brim with everyone's delicious tears, than sit around seeing how many Mega Man fans angrily declare a crusade on Capcom and then do jack shit about it.
You're more than welcome to it. I have plenty of great fighting games to play.
That's absolutely ridiculous if you actually believe that.
Glitter attacks.
Seth Killian is one of the biggest Mega Man fans I know, and no one (except for maybe Tony Ponce) is more upset than him about the fact that Mega Man Legends 3 isn't happening. Getting mad at him is just getting mad at another fan.
Buy a Kinect and quit worrying with Mega Man for now.
Putting out bad vibes won't attract good vibes!
Of course they are going to deny. If it happened or not, who knows?
As for the whole thing about geeks being pussies. IDK, I don't remember exactly where but I herd that this one time, there was a stabbing at comic-con....with a mechanical pencil, geek's weapon of choice! :O
