When X encountered Colonel, I wouldn't put past him that he hesitated to kill Colonel, or maybe just wanted to disable him and not kill him. As for Zero, he charged at Colonel in Memorial Hall.It's extremely hard to disable someone when they are intent on fighting to the bitter end. When they're threatening you're life, sometimes you don't have the luxury of avoiding the same in retaliation. You think either X or Zero wouldn't have spared Dragoon for further questioning if they could have?
I'm gonna say that Zero fought both Colonel and Iris for it builds up a tramatic effect on Zero since he was friends with Colonel and had a thing for Iris.Well, Zero DID fight Colonel at some point, that's established in X5. But that could be either Memorial Hall or Spaceport, which one is not specified, and Skiver's dialogue works either way (better, I think, with Memorial Hall).
No, not in that way.Aw, that's no fun!
So, if I'm understanding this correctly, technically if X faces Colonel, then Zero might not have ever had to kill Iris?Iris likely would have faced Zero anyway because she wants him to stop fighting against Repliforce, both for the sake of her Reploid-only fantasy and so that Zero doesn't get killed in the process. The problem is that she "goes out of control" upon installing Colonel's chip.
Just play X4Quoted for truth.
This makes me realize - the first Sonic Advance was pretty damn awesome.Assuming I actually wish to play as Sonic, I vastly prefer Rush/Rush Adventure. The problem is I am a gi-hugic Tails fan.
However, an XS scenario for X4 really requires a lot of rewriting, the game's cut scenes are character exclusive, most notable being Zero still at Hunter Base after X took care of Sigma. Still, with the way later games refer to the Repliforce incident, it really seems to be most likely.There's also the question of how the confrontation with Colonel at the Memorial Hall went. I view that as a bit of a turning point in Zero's attitude towards the fight against Repliforce. After Iris interferes with that fight, Zero is less cold to her than he was previously. He applies a sense of reason, both to her and to Colonel, rather than it solely being a matter of duty as it was beforehand. But Iris doesn't show up when it's X against Colonel. And Colonel is the one who is supposed to be responding to her, but realistically, he'd be royally screwed if both X and Zero were at Memorial Hall.

why the [tornado fang] do you think we're using the word?Now THAT is a good censor. There's nothing like using special weapons as swear words.
without Zero having killed Colonel, then there would be no mad with grief IrisThat's not actually true, it's just the easiest answer in the eyes of the fanbase. Marshmallow Man and I have argued to hell and back over the finer details of what's going on in Iris's head, and there is really a huge lack of detail in that scenario. While, yes, she is grief-stricken and not right in the head, there's any number of ways to spin that besides merely vengeance. And I don't buy that being the only thing on her mind, if it was at all, given her dialogue at death.
that forces Zero to Kill herZero did NOT kill Iris, he merely failed to save her, or to foresee how far his actions would push her. Iris died by her own hands; installing Colonel's chip which is too contradictory to her own traits for her to properly function (the entire reason the two of them exist as separate Reploids). Her body is intact, her death was internal.
So, while I'd like to see such a thing happen to a Rockman game, I'm still wary of the notion that, in efforts of trying their damndest to focus on co-op, the single-player component (which should STILL be the bread-n-butter of any action-platformer Rockman game) suffers on the other end. And I wouldn't want that, either.So far as I'm concerned there's no reason they cannot balance for single-player with the second player being merely an option. So what if the game is a bit easier? Besides, X-series games include difficulty settings these days, so it's really no biggie.
Sega will drop some money for a cash-in, so the game will include Knuckles the Echidna.Is it so wrong that I consider that idea completely awesome?
Not cool.BUT GANONDORF BLEW UP TWO PEOPLE!!!
Classic control scheme? Just what I need, a way to get out of motion controls!In all seriousness, more games SHOULD offer that kind of choice, whether the new controls work or not. Just as different people have different tolerances for a game controller, they also have different tolerances for pointers and motion sensors. If you go the other way exclusively, your audience isn't any wider, it's just different.
I was afraid I'd be late on picking that one up.That means looking at the song, analyzing it, understanding it, really appreciating its core, and turning that into something new.Unfortunately that rarely works as well in practice as it does in theory. I can count the artists who have impressed me that way on one hand, and yes you are one of the first to come to mind. They put together some spectacular stuff. But most of the people who attempt to create something new that way, professional or not, wind up with a mess of a result that offers no appreciation to the original's core at all. Respecting the source material doesn't mean limiting yourself to just covering the original version with better instruments; but most so-called artists can't find that happy balance.
and he's not at all relevant to the story any longerI don't know what the hell game you were playing. Zero vs. High Max was the most epic non-animated cutscene ever.
Just general abuse of savestates that isn't at all what the original point of the game wasWhich is why they're found in emulators and not in actual games.
savestates are also required for romhacks that require TAS-like precision. Air comes to mind.Case in point. In my case I wouldn't even play such a game because I just don't consider it fun anymore.
Guilty. Especially for Fire Emblem, if only to alter stat-gains so even mediocre characters can get a chance at fame.This is the one exception, because the U.S. Radiant Dawn actually lets you retain Battle Saves after use. Well merited in this case due to how blazing hard and utterly starved for experience the game is (yet for some reason I still love it).
