You can choose your enemies, you can choose your friends, but your family? You've gotta work with what you've got. And in the case of Mega Man and Dante, they have some... interesting issues to work out with their siblings, enough to earn them spots on GamesRadar's "Best Brotherly Rivalries" list.

One of the best things about living in a city is the back-and-forth Post-It Note wars that can erupt between two opposing office buildings. While the people in each building could technically create anything out of paper squares, classic game sprites are so much easier and recognizable; it's no surprise then that Mega Man appears quite a bit, including this recent sighting on Sony's windows.

Today, PC gamers can get a heaping dose of grit with the release of Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City on PC. You can purchase the game from any of the following digital distributors.

If you're in the San Francisco bay area (or, more specifically, San Jose) be sure to check out the Hideo Concert, which is a musical celebration of games and anime. Their setlist covers both categories pretty well, which thankfully includes a groovy, soothing Mega Man medley...

Coming up at 4pm PT we'll be streaming Darkstalkers 3, which was recently released on PS3 via the PlayStation Network. While we play, hop in the Twitch TV chat for a chance to win one of four codes for the PSN version!

Maybe it's because of all the time I spent in arcades back in the day, but the sight of a cabinet in someone's home still tickles a special part of my brain. Doubly so if it's a custom creation with one-of-a-kind art, lovingly created out of pure fandom. Such is the case with this unique marquee art that features weirdo versions of the classic Super SFII cast.

Today's dev blog comes from designer Yoshitaka Mori. Enjoy!

Throughout the fields and cities of Dragon’s Dogma, you will find all sorts of hidden items. These items, however, are not necessarily effective or of particularly great value on their own. That's where “combination” comes into play. Item combining allows you to put two items together to create new items.

Of course you could combine, for example, medicine with great healing properties with another medicine that cures status aliments, but sometimes performing these types of combinations will actually be necessary to complete certain quests.

Here is what you can create if you get good at combining!

Today, video game livestreaming site genstream.net will be launching a video game marathon in the truest sense, with  four teams going head to head in an actual race to get through several Mega Man series, including Mega Man 1-10, Mega Man X1-8, Mega Man Zero 1-4, and Mega Man Legends 1-2. Sorry, Mega Man Soccer.

Meanwhile, they'll also be raising money for Child's Play, so donate some money if you like what you see. You might even win a cool prize. 

The event begins today at 3PM PST/6PM EST, right here.

For those keeping up with NBC's Community, you're probably used to a barrage of shout outs and references to classic movies and TV shows. But this week's episode, teased by IGN, shows a brilliant 8-bit tribute that re-imagines the cast as adorable sprites.

As you may already know, we're streaming a full Mega Man game every month in the leadup to his 25th birthday in December. We began with MM1 in January, which means May is all about Mega Man 5. As usual we will stream the full game (I'll be playing this time, while Greg prepares for MM6 next month) and have prizes during the show, but this stream is extra special...

There's a new mobile app you can play around with on your iPhone or iPad while you're waiting for Dragon's Dogma to come out next week. It's a fun little time passer, and we've put together a little introduction video to show you what it does. A bit down the line, you'll actually be able to use this app to potentially win some DLC codes, so it's well worth the free download! 

Check out the video and a few screen grabs after the jump.
