It looks like Capcom will keep announcing new Mega Man games for a while: today, GameSpot reports that a new X game is on it's way. Mega Man X Command Mission appears to be an RPG, with separate interfaces for moving/talking and battle, like so many other games of this type. The graphics appear to be very similar to X7, and this time arounnd, the game is going to come out for both the Sony Playstation 2 and the Nintendo GameCube. There's not a lot known about that new title yet, and we'll see over time how it will play exactly.
