Mega Man's legendary transition to 3D was notable for its new action-RPG like approach and anime-styled storyline.
Mega Man X4 was the first in the series created specifically for Sega Saturn and Sony Playstation. Zero also debuts as a full-fledged playable character with his own gameplay style.
The seventh numbered entry in the Final Fantasy franchise brings the series into 3D with a landmark title that set new industry standards for cinematic storytelling. Mercenary Cloud Strife joins the rebel group AVALANCHE in their fight against the power-hungry Shinra Company, but their struggle soon becomes a race to save the entire Planet from an impending cataclysm.
The third installment of the Mega Man X franchise has both Mega Man X and the rebuilt Zero (playable for the first time) hunting down the Maverick scientist Dr. Doppler, who has congregated the reformed Mavericks for a more sinister purpose.
Despite the defeat of a powerful Maverick leader, Mega Man X (now the leader of the Maverick Hunters) keeps fighting new Mavericks (including the powerful "X-Hunters") while searching for the whereabouts of Zero in the second installment of the Mega Man X series.
Formerly known as Final Fantasy III in North America, Final Fantasy VI follows a diverse group of heroes as they fight to defeat Kefka, a megalomaniac intent on using a combination of long-lost magic and technology to take over the world.
When a mysterious billionaire sponsors an international robot fighting tournament only to reprogram the eight finalists to help him conquer the world, it's up to Mega Man to foil his plans in the last NES installment of the original Mega Man series.
Mega Man's former ally, Proto Man, creates an army of destructive robots and kidnaps Dr. Light, and it's up to Mega Man to stop him in this fifth installment of the Mega Man series.
When a peacekeeping effort between Dr. Light and Dr. Wily go haywire, it's up to Mega Man (who now has the ability to slide under obstacles) and his robotic companion Rush to traverse the universe and defeat the Robot Masters in the third installment of the Mega Man series.
The third Final Fantasy released on the Famicom. This version of the game was never released internationally.
Mega Man is a DOS game developed by Hi-Tech Expressions and released only in the U.S. Originally intended to be an official part of the franchise, the game was panned for its low quality.
The evil Dr. Wily is back with eight new menacing creations, and it's up to Mega Man to foil his new plans for world domination! Known for bootstrapping the long-running series, the game also introduces passwords, helpful items (such as Energy Tanks), and the series standard of eight bosses.
Final Fantasy II follows four heroes who join a resistance group and try to stop an empire from taking over the world. Its gameplay deviates greatly from the first game by utilizing a usage-based growth system.
Final Fantasy was the first entry in the now widely recognized Final Fantasy franchise, originally developed on the NES by Square (now Square-Enix).
