The main point of note isn't so much the nastiness of the effect, as it is Wily being shown to have remorse for his actions, giving enough cures for everyone, where X-series Wily seemingly doesn't give a damn.
* Justify shrugs
That scene always felt out of character to me - remorse isn't like Wily, and neither is gratitude - so maybe it's just that the idea of the whole Roboenza episode being a test appeals to me..
Was that really the effect of the Roboenza? Because Roll didnīt turned into a serial killer because of the virus. The RMs of MM10 were just holders of the cure for the disease, they werenīt infected as far as I can tell.
It does say that they attack the city in the intro, so... Wouldn't be too far-fetched to say that the Lightbots get extra protection against such attacks, so it affects them less.
Dunno about the RMs, we don't get any dialogue or backstory so for all we know it could be Megaman being an intruder hurrdurring into their lairs that sets them off.

The Roboenza turned all the ordinary robots in Classic violent, didn't it? So unless he was wholeheartedly expecting to get trounced (whereupon he would cure every robot in the world), it doesn't really seem like the Sigma Virus is that much nastier in effect...

And better two HoD's in the same context than in different ones, right?
No, because then you'd know which one was being talked about from uh... context...

The question would then be; what is Wily trying to accomplish? It's out of character to restrict himself to a local region, and we have to question if Wily would retry the virus thing again after Rockman10. He had some sort of change of heart, providing everyone with a cure for the Roboenza.
Well, it infects from reploid to reploid, right? So once it's out there and infected specimens seek out others to fight/infect, it's just a matter of time until every reploid is infected or the world is a desolate wasteland. Job done there I guess.
As for MM10, I could imagine he did that as a test. Or maybe he learned from the mistakes of Saturday morning cartoon villains, who never try a scheme again after it fails from sheer dumb luck on the part of the heroes...

Well, we may have some hope with Harmony of Despair... And it could be a sequel. Think about it... Aria of Sorrow had Dawn of... Sorrow. So Harmony of Dissonance might have... Harmony... of Despair! It makes sense to me!
I hope it's not going to be called Despair if so, because then we'd have 2 HoDs and they'd be in the same context.
Iīd rather play a game with the real Alucard than with a wanabe Alucard
Maybe it'll star Maxim?

Maybe the capsule emanates the virus, affecting anything OUTSIDE it, while remaining safely sealed itself?

Only three genera of spiders are known to be non-venomous, i.e. lacking venom glands or any proper way to deliver it. They include the families Uloboridae, Holarchaeidae and Liphistiidae. These spiders, however, do possess fangs and can deliver sharp, unpleasant bites if disturbed. In addition, the fangs of Liphistiidae can often inflict infections spread through the skin, mostly due to their big size, which in theory could represent more danger than the bite of a known, but not lethal venomous spider species.

And here I was worried that everyone else would only care about the VP sequel...

It doesn't seem terribly likely that MS would pay to get BoF as a 360 exclusive, so I have hopes for it being on the Wii fastly.

Gaming / Valkyrie Profile sequel

For talk about the Breath of Fire 1/2 compilation disc, use the other thread instead.

While it's possible the titles on the compilation disc can change, we can say with pretty much certainty that Square/Enix is announcing two titles for the 360. The only question is about the second disc which we were under the impression Capcom held the rights to. But first the big news, which is we're finally getting a true console sequel to Valkyrie Profile. We're being told it will be shown in video form only (nothing playable) at the MS E3 opener. For fans of the series, I wouldn't freak out just yet if you don't own an Xbox 360. The series is rooted on the Playstation brand and the word "exclusive" was never used during the conversation about the game. Showing at one companie's press conference likely means a timed-exclusive at best in this day and age.

The second game is a Breath of Fire compilation consisting of the first two SNES titles with updated graphics and modern HD cut-scenes added in. The limited information we were given leads us to believe that outside of the visuals and FMV, these are basically straight ports on a single disc. Again, the franchise started on Nintendo consoles and made the jump to the Sony brand. We can't see any reason the compilation couldn't make the leap to Wii and PS3 unless of course Microsoft pulled out the check book. It could also come down to who's getting paid since Square originally owned ONLY the North American rights to Breath of Fire I, while Capcom owns the franchise as a whole.

While we're all fanboys at heart, I think I speak for everyone when I say we hope these don't stay exclusive. Based on Star Ocean, we're likely looking at a time-exclusive for Xbox 360 since tri-Ace is experienced on both consoles. The Breath of Fire comp-disc isn't exactly going to be pushing any hardware limits if it does turn out to just be a port with visual upgrades, so the Wii should get some love too.

Typical response from RPM
To be honest the response everywhere I post this is basically "Tits! Tits! Oh and game looks kind of fun I guess."
