What does Disney even WANT with Marvel? These two worlds couldn't be more apart from one another.I'd say the potential for more cash. Also, something to reel in boys, since most of their stuff nowadays is decidedly geared towards the female demographic.
Almost necroposting here, but some fun facts.I played the PSX version on my PSP, and there was no lag whatsoever on the PSP, so I'm pretty sure the PSX couldn't handle it properly.
Megaman Legends 2(PSX):
Runs at 60 FPS on very few menus.
Runs at 30 FPS during normal play.
Runs slightly slower sometimes for, what seems to be, dramatic effect.
Under water, it runs 20 FPS.
Megaman Legends 2(PSP):
Seems to run at 30 FPS both on land and under water.
Some fun speculation.
The PSX could probably handle 30 FPS, but the FPS was lowered for effect.
The PSP version runs at 30 FPS underwater due to complaints.
If anybody has a gameshark and would be willing to test a code on the real PSX to force 30 FPS, let me know.
PS: Thanks for the warning. I'll set my GPU plugin's manual speed to 30 FPS and manual override when I go underwater.
So not being able to get by as unarmoured X without any powerups whatsoever is good stage design to you? Also, I bring up the randomly generated museum stage that can very easily screw you over if you happen to go there first. That's not the only place either. It's not good level design when you need an optional upgrade to advance normally, point final. I'm all for difficulty, as you should clearly know by now, but there's a difference between being challenging and not being able to advance without a freaking optional upgrade. I'm repeating myself, yes, but apparently that's needed.
It's called alternate paths. If you don't have what you need to clear them, it's your own fault for entering them in the first place. If you want to take a gamble with being ill-equipped, fine, but then you face the consequences.
The only "impass" that is not an alternate is Gate's Lab, which is the game's final stretch. And even that is a lot easier to clear than most players believe; I can't tell you how many fans to this day still think that an air-dash is necessary. By this point there is no excuse to not be properly equipped.
Generally, X6 is to the X-series what Lost Levels is to Mario. Low production value, highly challenging level design. Approachable, it ain't, but it's a great service for the hardcore fans. The game's level design is severely underrated by people who simply aren't up to the task of properly exploring it. There are tons of power-ups scattered, and rather than the brainless "use weapon x to destroy otherwise indestructible block y", a great deal of them require some good thought to reach, despite never once requiring a boss weapon. That is damn good level design that the series otherwise doesn't see, and it's a great and satisfying challenge to nab it all (without beating any bosses). The same can be said for the "impass" areas. You have to use your head, and pull out all the tricks for manipulating the engine that you know, and then you can find quite a few solutions to any given obstacle, and go with the one that suits you.
I think it's time Capcom brings the X Series backThe X series should die. Despite the earlier games being dear to me, most of the later ones are for the most part forgettable.
I don't see how you get any clearer than having to watch Ciel cry through the whole damn credits.I thought it was pretty damn clear too, but it obviously somehow managed to not be clear enough >_>'

And, last but not least, Inti did in one attempt what Capcom failed to do twice: They actually did a good job of killing Zero.Not nearly good enough if you ask me, considering people still think to this day that he survived.
