If you're in your mid-twenties like me, odds are you spent a good chunk of your youth trying to steal powers from Dr. Wily's robots. While those tense boss fights and platforming-intensive levels were all well and good back in the 80s and 90s, I think we're well overdue for some FPS Mega Man deathmatch action. Fortunately, the guys over at Mega Man 8-Bit Deathmatch are heeding the call.

It's a mod of Doom II, and utilizes the sprites and iconic sound effects from the NES era. Check out the free demo here, and a couple of video looks below.
