  2. I just took a closer look at that preview picture on Inticreate's website, anyone notice that Tornado Man has DR(Dr.R(L)ight) on his armor? Wonder if the robot masters in this game will be labeled as DR(L)N, or DWN as usual in the credits. But anyway, I'm so getting this soundtrack, with classic composers like this taking the helm, I definitely wanna see how these arranges sound.
