wait, you're still going on about that theory?
It's very factually based.

Awesome.

Now I can see how Tekkaman was the inspiration for Justice:

CHUN: Have you seen a big guy around here with red hat and clothes?
That's pretty vague.

Also, this is going to sound really nerdy and pointless, and is, but I don't recall the Z-Saber being mounted opposite Zero's sword hand before.
Hasn't he always had 2 sheathe holes?

Only X4's character select showed two... otherwise, its always one.

...When Larry the reploid accountant goes maverick of his own accord, he's certainly formidable during tax season, but he isn't going to provide X the challenge needed to make him grow as a warrior and reach his potential.

I remember how badass X and Zero looked in the MMX4 character select screen.

I liked X5's better.

Was Zero ever shown conclusively elsewhere to have only 1 hole?

Kinda strange that Zero's triple slash changed from X5 to X6 like that. And not just a little, man:

X5: Forward Slash, Pivoting Horizontal Slash, Full Forward Slash
X6: Forward Slash, Broad Forward Slash, Up Slash

That upward slash helps with gameplay (see: MMZ), but it's awful sudden.

No, no, and no.

Zero's backpack has always been symmetrical.  X4 is just the only one to show a "hole" for the Z-Saber at all, and it did so on both sides.  In all other cases the Z-Saber just magically stays there (magnet lock?).

You cannot honestly think that Gundam is the first thing to ever use two swords.

yes, because i was talking about the RX78's dual Beam Sabers and not the [tornado fang]ing backpack.

[tornado fang] off and die please.

I've got better things to do tonight than die. [/Springer]


I didn't mention the backpack either.  Beam Sabers are a logical sci-fi extension of:

Swords

You may as well be criticizing someone for being unoriginal by using laser pistols.  Nobody gives a [tornado fang].

Actually, the Command Mission pic quite clearly shows none.  The "hole" referred to in X4 is an actual extension, it would be visible if it were there.
http://www.sprites-inc.co.uk/files/X/X4/MiscScrn/
Scroll down to the character-select images, you'll see what I mean.  Those extensions do not exist outside of that image, and no "hole" has been seen in other artwork.  There is no image that shows Zero's backpack as being any different on one side than on the other.

DIFFERENT SWORD
Movement of the arm and the type of sword you are moving aren't all that relevant to each other.  Not unless you're going to get into hardcore real-life techniques as to how your leverage differs and all that stuff, which I'm fairly certain MegaMan X disregards (recall the fighter stance topic ages ago).

Besides, the solidity of the X4 Z-Saber varies with the artist.  Compare the opening cinema to the Memorial Hall clip.

Zero's saber isnt the only one. Sigma's saber goes from energy saber, to suddenly being able to clash with a sword, to suddenly, a metal rod when his arm hits the floor. Compete with hollow metal pipe clanging sound.

That is frigging awesome. I also love how Rock Volnutt's there with that "o hai" expression on his face. XD
