The Megas is a Los Angeles based independent video game cover band based on the Capcom game, Mega Man 2. They differentiate themselves from artists who have played Mega Man 2's music in the past by adding original lyrics and composing new sections which blend seamlessly with the original compositions. Their lyrics expand on the simple story laid out in the NES game, giving each of the 8 Robot Masters a unique personality. Their debut album, Get Equipped, was released in January 2008.

Their lyrics expand on the simple story laid out in the NES game, giving each of the 8 Robot Masters a unique personality. Their debut album, Get Equipped, was released in January 2008. The band has gained notoriety in the video game music scene due to their popularity on sites like Newgrounds. Their song "The Annihilation of Monsteropolis/Airman" was featured on the front page of the popular video game music remixing site OCRemix, and most recently the band was mentioned on Wired magazine's blog as well as the official Capcom blog. They plan to create new music from other Mega Man games in the future. Mega Man 3 and Mega Man X have been mentioned as the most likely candidates for inspiration, though in May of 2008 they released a track for a VG music compilation based on the Mega Man 2 level select track, a song they had skipped over during the recording of Get Equipped. Their ultimate goal is to tour Japan, and play their music for Mega Man's creator, Keiji Inafune.
