Relevance is in the eye of the beholder!

...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.

Could it possibly be considered laziness? Just because they didnt want to add a few more "curves" to Zero's model? I mean, given the graphics the PSP is capable of, there should be no excuse for how bad the MHX models are.
That's how I see it.  X8 suffered similar issues, as compared to previous PS2 titles, the character models were definitely lacking in detail (they didn't even differentiate height between the heroes, which due to difference in stance, leaves X appearing the tallest).  Not as bad as MHX, but still.  To me, it reeks of simply cutting corners.  And it's not even just the character models; both games are guilty of some obvious cheap cop-outs with the mugshots.

...the issues Inti had with their own work on the ZERO-series.
Interesting you should bring that up, as Neige carries a similar belt design to some of Zero's early concepts.

Also, taking a look at the X-series again, how often have Zero's gauntlets been properly depicted in dots?  You could say the same of the SNES and his chest plate, although I'd blame that more on poor sprite work than system/style limitations.  X himself is kind of in the same boat there.

How about the buster thing with Zero post X2? in both X3 and X5, the artwork shows Zero using one buster, while the in game sprites both use the other. Only X6 finally got it right.

Yeah it always struck me as odd, how X7, no matter what the opinion on the actual game- had very nice models at least. smoothly animated, fluent, and very nicely done.

X8 on the other hand, they seemed more angular and not as smoothed out.

The height problem in X8 though, actually seems deliberate, given how theres some concept artwork in OCW, which shows the images of the three mains, next to each other, for what seems like size reference, and they are all the same height, with a little line above their heads, as if to EMPHASIZE the fact to the model makers...

Hell- if I may be so bold, I dare say that the X8 Zero helmet design is on a similar note as MHX's. over simplified for convenience with the models.

Oh, it's worse than that.  In truth there is no official sprite which matches the final X2 artwork's buster.  The sprite used by X2/X3 includes an extra plate from a concept sketch which is almost, but not quite, final (MMXOCW, page 96, top-right image).

X5's sprite seemingly matches X2's better than X3's due to top-bottom symmetry (which ironically the actual X2 sprite lacked), but it has the gold band in the wrong place (thank Zan for pointing that out to me).

I -think- the only sprite that matches the actual X2 buster is X5's battle damaged Zero.

Ah yes, forgot about that one.  Between the cracks and the lighting it's hard to tell what details they were going for, but it does appear to be their best shot.

Since we already know theres new artwork and all that jazz, im going to temporarily hijack this thread to say that Rockman X Mobile was released in Korea.

BTW, is it just me, or does the music sound an AWFUL lot like this?

Wow. Didnt know bout the Sigma one.

Cross over.

It's how Wily found out about X and came up with the idea on building Zero. 8D

A little late there, methinks.

Anywho, it's clearly a crossover of many sources. So far I see Classic, X and EXE influences, but I'm curious to see just how much they decide to toss in.
