This reminds me of the best bash.org quote ever.

<guy1> is it pronounced live or live?
<guy2> live
<guy1> ok thanks
I'm not even going to try to guess what "Live A Live" is.

Live A Live is an awesome (but short) game.

Too bad, because I'll never mention it out loud for fear of saying it wrong.

I always thought it was just lead in the bubbles, which is why they didn't float away and why they actually hurt stuff. There has to be SOME logic in video games, and it makes more sense that you kill a robot with a heavy bubble than something else. Otherwise, you could make so many cracks about how it just burns the enemies eyes, but doesn't kill them, and Bubble Man being laughed at by everyone because the worst he can do is make someone's eyes water.

That said, I guess Aqua Man and Neptune got laughed at then.   Water Balloons and Salt Water don't actually seem dangerous.  Of course, I still like those weapons.

So does that mean that Water-element Robot Masters are rust-resistant?  If not, then Toad Man's committing suicide...  8D

Toad Man probably wants to commit suicide. He's a toad robot, god damn, his life must be horrible.

Bubble Lead, it's made of lead.

Except it canonically isn't made out of lead! Sourcebooks FTW!

The bubble is made of lead, it gives enemies lead poisoning.

バブル リード (baburu ri-do) = Bubble Lead (Leed)

Lead = Guidance = "leads" itself along the ground~ >w<

Since I'm both a Leader and the element of Lead (Pb), it doesn't matter what I call it.

I still think it's the element lead. Unless Mega Man is greater than Chuck Norris, I highly doubt he can crush a met with a bubble, let alone a robot master.

Grah. This used to confuse the hell outta me. I originally pronounced it "LEED", but then I changed to "LED".

"LEED" would probably make more sense, given that it "leads" itself along the floor. However, "LED" also makes a little bit of sense, given that the bubbles do indeed hit the floor and roll along from there. Didn't some official sources state Wily created super-heavy bubbles by chemically combining H2O and Pb, or am I mistaken?

I dunno. I don't have much of a preference either way. @_@

if Mega Man can kill robots with wind, he can most certainly use a bubble.
