If you'll excuse me, I'm now going to be a bit smug for the second time this week. Why? Because another of my exciting predictions for gaming's future has come true, in exactly the way I said it would.

Hot on the smouldering, radioactive heels of my long-held Duke-Nukem-by-Gearbox-at-PAX clairvoyance, Capcom has confirmed the gameplay details of its upcoming, previously mysterious, best-trailer-ever-having Mega Man Universe title. At this point I could just point you towards my previous predicto-feature and instruct you to upgrade all of my assumptions to weapons-grade fact, but I'm a serious professional and besides, that would be too smug even for me. I'm already feeling a bit self-concious about the big red Cape of Smugness I'm wearing (the one with the white feather trim) and the crown I've made out of that printer paper I stole the other day.
