BUMP.

Well, if they handle it like The Day of Sigma, we could have some awesome, Toonami-level Megaman X anime. I mean, the series packs so much story that the plot of TDoS could have been made into several episodes. That would be one awesome show, and I even considered sending a letter to Capcom saying that an X series show would be awesome. Then I realized that they wouldn't listen to my suggestion since they would have made it a series already if the wanted to.

Anyway, we're approaching the release of ZX Advent and Star Force here in the States. ZXA is coming in October, I believe, and Star Force comes out in August. Anybody looking forward to these new games?

And here's a question:
Do you think that the ZX series will keep changing characters, or will they settle with the characters of Advent?

Damn straight. He is X. Period. His work in Maverick Hunter X was superb.

Indeed. I love his dialog right before the last fight with Sigma. When he says," I WILL DEFEAT YOU SIGMA!!!!" It gets me pumped & ready to take names & kick ass....& throw in a couple of "Woohoo!!"s.

Anywho....favorite games....

Probably MM2, MMX, MM4, both PSP games, & oddly enough, Network Transmission.

As far as story's concerned....I try not to think about it....it makes my head hurt.

Network Transmission is great! Don't let anybody tell you otherwise!

The only real problem I ever had with it was the main area of the game that you have to naviate through to get to the individual "boss" areas.....but it was just because it was all interconnected & confusing. Personally I would have perferred it to be a bit more linear like the classic & X series are. Other than that, it was pretty good.

Megaman 2, Zero 4, Legends, and the first Battle Network are probably my favs.

As for X7, avoid it like the plague. It makes X6 look like a masterpiece.

Hell, IIRC in at least one of them(it's been a while since I've played the PS2 games) X isn't even a main character...more like a bonus unlockable one. Other than that you just play as Axl & Zero. I mean seriously, what's the point of calling the game Mega Man X when Mega Man X isn't the focus of the game? They should have called it Mega Man Axl.

That would be X7.

X8 had a slight sweetness to it, partially because you could once again play as X from the start. Also, it had good voice acting, something which MegaMan never experienced before.

One thing to me that is kinda weird about the guy voicing X.....every time I hear his voice I think of his "This hand of mine is burning red" line from G Gundam.

It's really great in Maverick Hunter X since he calls out his attacks before using your secondary weapons.

"This hand of mine is burning red.....it's loud roar tells me to grasp victory!! STORM TORNADO!!!"
*awe*

X7 was completely bad, even the story. Basically, X went all emo again (NO! I refuse to fight! Why do we have to fight? I AM A REPLOID MURDERER! WAAAAAAHHH!!!) to the point of running away from home. Then Axl and Zero have half of a "totally amazing adventure!!!" and then X snaps out of his emo mood and helps fight once again. As if he wasn't whiny enough, X had to run away from home like a whiny little brat. Lame.

The gameplay sucked, too. Whoever suggested 3D should be fired.

On a lighter note, Star Force and ZX Advent come out this fall for the DS. Anybody looking forward to them?

OH YEAH Especially Star Force. I love the MM:BN series. I'm a bit less interested in ZXA, cuz so far ZX was just like the Zero series, gameplay wise. Hopefully, they change it up a bit. I wanna see the story's progression though. I'm interested to see this lead in to Legends.

Any word on when the RM:PM book is coming stateside? I heard it was supposed to, it was even on Amazon.

Anyone know if Maverick Hunter X is still in stores? GameStop/EB Games doesn't list it on their website. Nor does Toys 'R Us, Target, Meijers, Wal*Mart, or any big retailer. Just small-time websites.

I want this game so badly.

Last time I went to a Wal-Mart I believe I saw copy or 2. Just keep looking around, you'll find it eventually.

The easiest way, however, is to look for it used. Go to EB Games, Gamestop, Rhino, or wherever. They'll most likely have it used.

I stopped getting used games where I can. I had a lot of problems playing Oblivion from a used copy, didn't even know about the problems untill about 2 months or so afterwards, because the game was so long, & by then any kind of return plan was expired. Even after I got the disk resurfaced it had problems & would constantly crash if I talked to the wrong person in the game. Buying used is may save you a few bucks, but at the same time you're taking on all the problems the guy prior to you had.

& with a game that has as many glitches as Transformers has, you want as few problems as you can get....

I got Mega Man MHX. Oddly, I got it used. (I didn't see the above post)

I'm having a helluva good time. I SHOULD save some game play because I have a roadtrip with my family coming Saturday, but by then I'll probably have Vile's Story and Day of Sigma to look forward to.

(I've already seen Day of Sigma, but it was a really crappy YouTube version)
