X / Re: X8/XCM/MHX VAs...

« on: February 25, 2009, 04:33:35 PM »

and for Zero, for the record, I liked his X7 VA. Lucas does a great job portraying Zello, but X7's Zero actually reminded me of his deep voiced Japanese counterpart. I think thats what Capcom was trying for actually.

well, they went too deep, then. the X7 VA sounded like a David Hayter impersonator. and couldn't act for [parasitic bomb].

also, if they EVER use Vile again, they NEED to get his VA from the Mega X episode. that was probably the BEST Voice ive ever heard that fits him SO well.

there's nothing wrong with X8/MHX's VA. that cackle is so sexy.

Yeah. I would definetly like Forte in it. also, I think Duo should be brought back into the picture.

[tornado fang] Bass. [tornado fang] Duo. there, i said it.

The only problem would be actual traversing of the stages. I can't even think of a good example of a platforming co-op game

how many Contras are there?

On the inevitable VA replacement for X: Capcom could always track down Ian James Corlett. He has a fairly wide range, and fits Megaman's character very well.

eh. he'd be alright, but there'd be something missing too. and we probably wouldn't be able to watch without thinking "I HOPE MY BODY CAN TAKE IT."

concerning Sigma, i think both X4 and X8 were good. his X7 voice wasn't bad either, actually. but something felt missing from the person who voiced him in MHX, who was not the same as in X8.

Rockman Series / Co-op Mega Man

« on: February 24, 2009, 08:46:58 PM »

as noted in this Resident Evil 5 interview, and Protodude's site, Capcom wants to use a lot more cooperative gameplay in future titles.

years ago, when i thought Mega Man 9 would never come, my friends and i started thinking of ideas for our own MM9. one of the big things we thought up was a sort of tag team gameplay with Mega and Proto Man. i believe if one person was playing, the two could be swapped out X8 style. but if there were two players, both Mega and Proto would be on screen at the same time, with P1 as Mega and P2 as Proto, or vice versa.

this interview may very well hint that our idea can become a reality. but it may not necessarily be in Classic Mega Man. the same could work for X. or if Capcom takes my suggestion of using RE4/5's engine for Legends 3, co-op would fit in naturally.

thoughts?

a lot of combos lvl3 and above, i'm terrible with. either the timing for input is extremely strict on some of these, or i just suck. probably the latter. i have enough trouble doing Guile's super and ultra. seriously, [1]319 is a disgusting thing to input on a controller.

i'm love it/hate it with Sakura's dub voice. the Valley Girl manner of speech is very annoying, but it kinda fits Sakura. it a weird combination when she says Ryu-san, though.

yes. they would. trust me, its the most exploitable thing ever.
also, a duel moderator wouldnt know what the card does. since chances are he is just another duelist who simply signed up to be the moderator. this isnt yugioh where people do extensive study on cards.

there has to be someone present who actually knows what goes on in the [tornado fang]ing game. there are a lot of tricky rules out there not readily obvious to the average player, and if anyone should know those rules, it would be a mod.

What if I told you that they planned for this to be a trilogy since the beginning?

no, but the ratio is much higher than american people who can read japanese cards.

source?

I would think the whole using Japanese cards thing is done since we're a few sets behind Japan. At the same time, they want to make absolutely sure someone doesn't bullshit to the other person what the card does due to lack of knowledge of Japanese.

Yeah, I know there's still the picture but Upper Deck, who I think handles the game now, is anal enough to just ignore that.

this i can understand. but in that case, why not just ban cards that haven't been released in English yet?

and if the person you're playing against doesn't know what a card does, what's wrong with a duel moderator verifying what the card can do? if anyone should know what every card does, it's them.

and i know some duelists can be dicks, but i don't think those on the professional level would lie about a card's effect.

or you know, just use a little common sense. it's safe to assume Model HX isn't too different from Model H.

heck, even Wikipedia has info. no wait... that will result in weird fan theories...

Wikipedia actually has correct info there. Mega Man Wiki, on the other hand...

also, I once got a thousand eyes restrict from the "single card" plastics that vending machines have. but it was japanese.

which reminds me. it's ridiculous that western tournaments don't allow Japanese cards, but eastern tournaments have no language restrictions.

just watched The Ties That Bind. i loved it. character design is top notch, and the fights scenes were really good.

but i have mixed feelings about Rueben Langdon as Ken. the voice works, but it sounds a little too much like Dante. the dub is great on the whole, though.

this is actually my first Street Fighter. and by god, does it show. i'm so used to faster gameplay styles, SFIV feels clunky to me right now. i'm spanning projectiles and sweeps to beat Arcade.

the opening song is awkward. but the rest of the tracks so far sound great.

the opening movie is beautiful, and so are the anime scenes before and after Arcade. the graphics are really good, too. i'm just about over the beefy Hulk look everyone has.
