ZXA was fine in its localization, Its just that It was the X7 voice cast, which just didnt work. I cannot un hear Grey's X voice.

and then theres model Z and X having close to the SAME voice.

Yeah, I still don't think it was meant to be taken seriously.

It's kinda like how Indiana Jones took his name from the family dog, and that wasn't his birth name. Sure, that's how they say it goes, but it's still funny. And it's not really taken seriously.

Granted in that instance, it is canon, but still. You get the point.

Its that its so silly though. In the Japanese, he has an actual name- which Barrel thought would be punny on Roll's name. So he's "Rock" Volnutt. And then he is revealed to originally have been "Rockman Trigger"

This way, its like His name is already Megaman Volnutt... and then he used to be Megaman Trigger?

Do you see my issue with it here. his Purifier name looses its specialty when it is almost the same as his adoptive name. Its simply a change in last name, instead of this whole change of name to "Rockman/Mega Man"

Plus really... Growing up with the name "Megaman"... *brings back the Sonic The hedgehog example*

It becomes one when it's the main character's name and they need a REASON for it- but otherwise of course it's a nod.

Yeah the name thing with  "Megaman Volnutt" was always weird and didnt make much sense.

Actually, thats one thing that although it will most likely not be corrected- probably should.
I hold it up there with the Localization of the regular ol' name of "Rock" into "Mega".

Mega and Roll. Rolls right off the tongue, don't it.

there was also that thing with how old Roll was at the time wasn't there?- Aren't her and Trigger technically around the same age? (excluding Triggers past life- I mean from the moment Barrel found him.) and if he was reset to a baby, then wouldn't Roll be around a baby/toddler age? depending on whgat age- she would be too young to be even playing videogames. If a bit older though, Her grandfather is going to let her name a baby after a video game character... yeah, I never really bought the whole "named after her favorite Video game character" thing...

It would also say a bunch about Barrel himself. Really? On a whim, he is going to allow his Granddaughter to name a baby he found after a video game character. Not even an actual name, like, say if I named a kid "Mario" or "Chris"(Redfield) but "MegaMan"?

When im an old man, Im going to let my granddaughter name the baby I find, "Sonic the Hedgehog." See how he grows up with that.

DISCLAIMER: Im not being a negative prick BTW, Im just pointing out how silly that was in hind sight, and how much more sense it would make if it was kept "Rock Vollnut". Please don't eat me.
I taste bad. Honest.

Im really hoping to see some more of Trigger's past. I'd kill to see what he looked like when he was a Purifier. Didnt the master base him off of a friend of his? (or so i heard) Id sure like to know more of that.

Elder system though, yeah.

FYI i was just referring to X8's Zero helmet, not the whole game. the game itself was good, despite breaking a few traditions.

X3... Has its own issues. Fun game, but it has a few issues of its own.

His X3-X6 sprites were just fine, and his X7 model was good, I just dislike they way they redesigned his helmet for X8, and to a lesser extent, MHX.

Its not even the spikyness, just the way they are leveled and the way they raised the halfpipe in the back. it just looked WEIRD.

i can live with the rest of Zero's X8 Clamp body, just that helmet that irks me.
In fact, heres a way that his X8 could have been handled while still staying within the same X8 style

IMHO the style worked for X1, but as the series went on it became clear that character designs outgrew it.  What gets me is that unlike the NES style Classic-series, SNES X-series visual gripes are purely a matter of style flaws and not technical limitations.  It's not as if the SNES couldn't do better (hell, the GBC detailed Zero's chest plate better than the SNES).

As far back as X1, they were already forgetting Zero's boob lights.
I DO think his X3 Sprite was OK though.

Sure does. I tend to remap dash to the shoulder buttons in the PSX X games too now.

I have nothing against the X-X3 sprites... I just don't want SNES X9.

But I do think X3's armor was a mess of pixels.

And keep the dash as a button combination so that PB will never play it?

His loss. >.>

If it were a Wii game, unless they map the dash to the B button, there would be no dash button.

3DS though, would have more buttons.

Well, isn't the Progress PET pretty much a PSP but with a holographic touch screen anyways? =P

Exactly!

I'll be honest, I feel that last part is much better in theory than in practice, but maybe that's just me. Also, honestly, some are a pain to play as *stares at Oilman and Gutsman*

the only thing I can imagine making it harder to play as Elecman would be that in PU weapons cant go through walls. otherwise, if thunder beam is as awesome as it was in 1,then shouldnt be too bad.

The PSP was cool regardless of not that many games interesting me, (there are more that do now though) because it was if you will forgive the comparison- like an IRL PET. you could do everything on that [parasitic bomb], music, internet, games...

PU doesnt exactly interest me THAT much TBH, I never liked the overly chibi look it has- i always felt it was TOO cute. Even for classic. And I dislike Rock's voice. I  curious though, and the level builder looks fairly interesting enough to amuse me. As well as Playble Robot masters. I mean really. Thunder beam as my main weapon? Yes please.

MHX is similar. Except it DOES excite me.(Unlike PU)  i like it's intention, despite not being a perfect remake. I like the updated graphics and stuff, the VAs, stuff like that- I never liked the way they swapped capsules around though- and well, yeah vile mode sounds interesting, though i still would have liked a Zero mode- JUST for the sake of seeing how pre-X2 Zero functions in a playable manner.
And of course Day of Sigma, but i can find that online, so no biggie there.\

Still, the DS had that simulated surround sound shpiel, though I can't remember any games that used it other than SM64DS.

in any case it made sound sound much better in any game. Dawn of Sorrow sounded surround... (which made Bloody tears sound all the more awesome) but maybe thats just me.

Wait- 3D these days is stereoscopic? As far as I know, that requires two of the image doesnt it? how do they do that?
hah... Apologies, but I thought they were still doing the red-green 3D.

Hey, Who remembers Spy Kids 3D?
Sure it was not that great, but at least it was made FOR the 3D gimmick specifically.

Nowadays, its just a gimmick to mask bad movies by saying "oooh loook! its threee deee!"

or in Lucas' case, to cash in on the new gimmick with older movies.

Im beginning to think the reason his neck-chin thing keeps getting bigger is that its where he stores the money he makes off of stuff like this.

Also, 3D sucks. All its good for is movies MADE for 3D- ON OCCASION. like, one every few years or so. Not every [tornado fang]ing thing.
And i cant wear 3D glasses over my own [tornado fang]ing glasses. if they are going to make 3D, at least come up with a solution to that [parasitic bomb].

Actually, who STARTED this [parasitic bomb] anyway? What movie(s) is/are responsible?

Not only that, but perhaps MHX2 will come with Playable Dr. Cain! 

Playable Zero. you get to choose which body part you play as.

If you choose the head, you get to whip opponents with Zero's ponytail.


serious note though- if this does well, maybe it will convince Capcom/Inti to make that ZX3.

Even Zero's helmet? 

Zero's helmet was just FINE until X8.

His X2 sprite was kinda iffy though. It looked weird. and X's X3 armor's sprite... *shudder* what a pixelated mess...

The main complaint was finally exposed as fear of the 3DS.

Well I know IM more afraid of having a repeat of MHX happen to me.  (I STILL dont have a PSP, and I STILL have not played MHX or PU. )
