The MBoard

I was very pleased with ZX:A. I didn't get to complete Expert mode because my data got cleared, but everything about the game was great. Even the unlockable mini-games and such were quality.

Being able to play as an 8-bit Model A made me so happy.

It was alright. But it wasn't OMG AWESOME.

I was done with it in a week. Model a is kinda cool though (And I don't mean Model Axl). >_>

I should get it then?

For the record, Model A isn't even Axl.

It was alright. But it wasn't OMG AWESOME.

I once respected you for having a cool opinion! I don't respect you any longer! Model A was awesome... ZXA was awesome! It had what many games of the Rockman/Megaman series lack... actual good gamplay!

Really, ZX series is all we have going for us now, so I suggest people start throwing out their misgivings towards Axl (or not-really-Axl), because this is all we're gonna get.

It's not Axl at all!

It's not Axl at all!

I don't believe Megaman Villians.

Oh god, what was it, Megaman ZXA battle Network Soccer and Chase Blue 7 or something crazy, who made the image?

I remember that, the name is on the tip of my tongue.....

eww nvm cat-hair..

Like ZX, ZX:  Advent was made of pure win.  

The game was very fun and enjoyable and the difficulty was perfect.

Oh and Boss Battle mode pwns.

The entire game was well-made. I agree on the difficulty bit: I find plenty of games too easy nowadays, and all 3 difficulty levels of ZX:A were exactly as described: Easy, Normal, or Expert. Needless to say, I enjoyed Expert the most. I'll go back and actually replay the game in a few months, but I lost my enthusiasm when my data got bleeped.

OMFG XELLOOO!

I agree, and the addition of mini-games were neat, I mastered Megaman a, but I have yet to beat hard mode to unlock section-3 : (

Boss Battle mode actually prepares you for Expert mode since all the bosses are fought in that difficulty.

Seconded.

Game is good. Although, I mainly suggest just playing it. Buying it for keeps I'd say should be up to you.

Boss Mode made me happy if only because it reminded me of simpler times.

I got my butt kicked in boss battle mode, then I cried.

Emo.

And you're quoting me on this now...

I have to save up rant points.

Any and all rants you bring are full of truth and lulz.

RANT AWAY I SAY!

Goodbye! Me am Xero! Me am think ZX: A is bad! Me am hate Chao and love girls! Okay me am leave now, hello!

...That would be Me am hate Chao and Girls.

Sure sure, broseph.

woah i still prefer the original ZX

took me 3 days to beat ZX advent on normal, absolutely no challenge and managed to beat expert about a month after i got it, and pretty much beat it all within 2 months

it took me 2 months to BEAT ZX and i still dont have OX (mainly beacuse i lent it to someone and probably have no hope of seeing it again)

i'v played zxa and its kinda frustrating to find out how to get to some bosses but there is still one thing i don't get.

usually the biometals are named after a specific hero(E.X modle z=modle zero, modle x=megaman x) but why do they call modle a modle albert when he has the copping ability like axl? i know that albert was his creator but still.....

It's just MegaMan/Capcom trickery. It's obviously Axl but it's just Capcom saying "LOL NOW IT MAKES SENSE"

MegaMan has yet to make sense though.

I still haven't heard a single thing that will make me want to play Advent.
I barely enjoyed ZX as it was... and changing the characters (while I appreciate older Aile, still...) killed it off.
Plus, I never liked Axl. He's the godmoding fan-character insertion of the Mega Man universe.

Like Shadow in Sonic (although that series had likewise been dead several games before).

Actually, Shadow came to the Sonic series while it was still on Dreamcast, so Shadow is an accepatble character.

Replace Shaodw with Silver and i agree with you 100%.

But when they brought him back from the dead that was when it got lame.

By the way... Abe, why did you edit Chron's post?

May have corrected an error or something, or misfired. Happens when you're browsing.

The Sonic games died after Sonic and Knuckles (read: not during, but after).
I'm what you might call a bitter old fan.

This has been discussed a million times.  Model A is Axl in ability, appearance and attitude.  Capcom can call it whatever they want (And they have), it's still Axl.

By the way... Abe, why did you edit Chron's post?

Because he referenced deleted posts.

Let me do my job, please.

well yes that was Sonic Heroes... Thats when Dreamcast lost the rieins.

Let me do my job, please.

Yes, if he doesn't work, he doesn't get paid.  If he doesn't get paid he doesn't eat Haggus.  If he doesn't eat Haggus he doesn't go potty.  If he doesn't go potty he ASPLODES!

Then we'd NEVER get an update.

Isn't haggus that sheep stomach stuff?

That's only part of it. I haven't tried it, but it can't be a gross as people make it out to be. I mean, people still eat hot dogs and that's made of the raunchiest.

Neither Shadow nor Silver are acceptable by any stretch of the word or imaginable divine cosmic intervention on any multiversal plane here said The Mikero--hallowed be His name--who walks in shadows with twilight abominations and strikes with fists like something unto iron, may disease and infestation rain down upon his enemies like thunderbolts.

OH MY GOD!

Mikero's Jesus guys!

Nope, just a regular Ninja.

*Dissapointed face*

Mikero a ninja?

I would like to see some proof good sir

would like to see some proof

...
Exactly.

Never gonna happen.

Because he is not a ninja

he is just Conceit

*facepalm*

Because he is not a ninja

he is just Conceit

Says the douche who actually put the word "Hero" in his name. Like I'm gonna waste time proving myself to you.

Nope, just a regular Ninja.

I hope you don't mean "regular" as in ordinary, because that's clearly farce. However if you mean "regular" as in my digestion habits, then that's fine.

How else could I mean it?

Yeah it's too bad I dont go shooting my mouth off, other than you who makes himself look like Jesus, mine is JUST a name, i don't say im some badass lightning throwing god.

Disease will rain like thunderbolts.
He doesn't throw them.

Also, he walks around with Abe and punches with an iron fist.

Yeah it's too bad I dont go shooting my mouth off, other than you who makes himself look like Jesus, mine is JUST a name, i don't say im some badass lightning throwing god.

Hm? He's saying he's a god? I thought that was you talkin'.

OH MY GOD!

Mikero's Jesus guys!

... I must be hallucinating.

EDIT: Also, your statement that goes "mine is just a name, his makes him sound pretentious", goes the other way around.

Yeah, 'cause I was totally being serious and making myself look like Jesus everything. Man up, toots. You want to be quick to run your mouth all over the place? Fine. But don't come at me like I'M some #####ing C.H.U.D. just 'cause I allow myself to have a little laugh at no one else's expense.

Also, I think you're definition of Jesus' abilities, style, description, and image is greatly skewed.

Seriously buddy, I was making a joke that wasn't even negative towards you, you people take things too seriously

Wow.

You lie.

omg funnay

Seriously, the comedy biz aint for you.

Bah, I give up

*watches the cane yank NAH off the stage*

So. How about that Advent?

OH ##### GOOD EYE

WHAT THE ##### IS THAT ABOUT HUH?

WE PEOPLE?!

That's just too far.
I mean, seriously, we people have feelings too, just because of how we do our peopleing doesn't mean that we're so bad....

THIS IS A DISGRACE.

And to think there might be some kind of hate group out there! WHO WOULD DO THESE KINDS OF THINGS!?

I AM FILLED WITH ANGER AND RAGE.

AND GAS.

THAT TOO.

BUT MAINLY ANGER AND RAGE.

*sniff sniff*

MORE NOTABLY THE GAS.. >.>

You people

Was directed at Mikero

so really it shoulda been... Him person?

So. What. Now you're going after the ninja's?

You know, that avatar doesn't really help your case right now either.

so really it shoulda been... Him person?

wwwwwuuuuutttt?.....

It should have been "you".

What is this thread about?
Advent?
Is it even worth playing?

Worth borrowing from somebody for a week to beat it.
Worth buying for less than 20 dollars.

Under conditions similar to those, it's worth playing.

Just about right, yesh.

Seriously buddy, I was making a joke that wasn't even negative towards you, you people take things too seriously

Sure. Right. Whatever you say, bucko.

I find it funny that it's US who supposedly doesn't get jokes.

Why else would we have the  ??? smiley?

Ok almighty overlords, what do you want me to say?

We want you to give us money.

EHEHEH! Good eye, didn't notice how well that went together.

Your avatar does go nicely with an ellipsis.

I love the game! It's great. The gameplay, the sprites, which I think are the original sprites, and the music. Loved the music. Have all the tracks on my MP3. And I think I posted about my love for this game before, no one just paid attention :-\.

Whoa, I know this is off topic, but is the glow button new? Because it's really cool . . .

It's several years old, and very thankfully is not supported by Firefox.

Watch me start using it in every post I make. Oooops.

It's several years old, and very thankfully is not supported by Firefox.

On my Firefox is just shows as like, normal text in whatever colour with whatever colour background. Is is actually supposed to look all glowy or something?

Yeah, very glowy. Like, just around the text-outlines glowy.

Music was forgettable. Listen to the MM2-7 and X1-5 soundtracks and tell me whether you still love ZXA.

Will do, Fatso.

Hey now, no need to call him names..

Geez. Seems like people jumping completely off topic will never get old. I beat the first ZX and enjoyed it. I haven't even seen Advent in play yet so I don't know if I really want to buy it. Can anyone give me a review that's a bit more... thorough? kthxbai

If you can get it for less than 15 to 20 bucks, do it.
Or borrow it from a friend, it's easy enough to beat in a week.

And one you get model ZX (which is about 60% through the game) it becomes a whole lot easier.

I rarely used ZX, I prefer L for sheer power.

Why don't you just check out professional game review sites, like gamespot.com or 1up.com?

Why don't you just check out professional game review sites, like gamespot.com or 1up.com?

Because game companies pay those websites to give them good reviews?

Gamespot for instance, fired someone for giving Kane and Lynch a mediocre review, as the company who made the game recently gave gamespot a LOT of money to re-vamp the website with a Kane and Lynch background and such.

I heard about that. Is that really true?

I heard about that. Is that really true?

Yeah, its true. The guy who got fired was the same guy who gave Zelda: TP 7.8 I think? And Metroid Prime 3 8.2 or something like that...

I forget the ratings but there was a HUGE #####storm at GameFAQs because those games didn't get rated higher than 9.5.

You can just imagine how happy those people were when he got fired.

Those sound about right for both games if you flip the scores.

Whats the point of firing someone for expressing their opinion when their job is just that, expressing your opinion on that certain game. What a bunch of dumb #####s.

It's almost like they're RPM or something.

Well 1up.com is useful. I've been reading their mag and a few month's issues ago the editor Dan Shoe Hsu told about how game companies have pulled their ads from the mag because of the reviews they got, but EGM kept right on giving the games the scores they deserved, either good or bad.

Hsu? As in "Hsu and Chan", that comic that used to run in EGM?

I LOVED those guys!

Because that's not his job.

His job is a to give it a good score and to hype the game, depending on how much they payed gamespot for the review.

Exactly.
Business is not pure Steve.
Business is tainted and dirty.
Like underwear that's been worn for a week.

Only you and the french do that.

Lumberjacks have to, it keeps the bugs off with out dealing with bug spray.

I'm sure Hsu is based on Dan Shoe Hsu, but what do you mean by used to? It's still in the mag, and me likey. It's hecka funny.

I loved when they did the Pokemon spoof with Gila Mobster and Chernobyl and such.

I thought they stopped printing it a few years ago?

No, I'm sure they still have it.

They do still have it. I saw it in a store once very recently and made a point to check if it was still there and read it.

Oh goody!

... Too bad I don't read EGM.

Dan 'Shoe' Hsu, the greatest editor-in-chief of all time, is leaving EGM. I can't believe it. And he's being replaced by James Mielke. His name sounds so inferior compared to Shoe's. I just got winduh of this after reading my latest EGM mag. I'm so pissed right now.

I've known that for a long time.

I heard he was a good reviewer.

He was so great a reviewer that the games he truthfully dissed pulled their ads from the magazine.

wazzup people

There's an introduction thread for something.

Forgot what it was, though.

It might've been for a reason, but I'm not sure. I know it was something...

Advent is a decent game. What really bothers me though is that Model A carries the guns in his/her hands instead of it being attached to the arm like the other series. Having a gun for an arm is what makes MegaMan so awesome and it just does not seem right that now that he is carrying it around in his hands. Nonetheless this is worth playing.

They had hand held "busters" in both you simp.

Yeah, and he just said he didn't like it for those as well..

Um, wow. I interpreted that completely differently from what it was meant to be.

I thought he was calling the Zero games and the other ZX game good.

I enjoyed them. So ##### off.

ZX games are good, but not Zero.

Having a gun for an arm is what makes MegaMan so awesome and it just does not seem right that now that he is carrying it around in his hands.

No one in ZX is "MegaMan".

The closest thing to Mega Man are the kart racers in ZX. And personally I found the Zero games to be better than ZX, I didn't like playing as random half assed characters that take on the ability of 20 people, screw the skitso chumps.

I loved Mega Man Zero 2, my favorite game from the Zero series, and beats the ZX games by far.

I haven't played ZX, but I like the concept better than I've liked MMZ through MMZ3 all together.

That's not saying much though, since I like the concept of a two-assed no-headed dog more than I liked MMZ.

I like the idea of a grim future for MMX, with a power hungry corrupt government.

but they did it wrong lol

Isn't that the plot of Command Mission?

##### if I should know, I never even got to a boss in that game. I just didn't bother with it, MM RPG's don't mix with me. Not one bit.

OK well basically the bad guy was a high up military dude bent on getting supra force metal.

That sounds silly. See, MMZ did one thing right, the whole #####ing government was corrupt, not just one high up military dude with a stick up his ass.

Besides, if it ain't Sigma, it ain't worth my time.

YAWNSVILLE. It was Colonel Redips, he corrupted like the whole military or some thing. I can't remember. He wasn't the coolest villain in the game (Epsilon).

ALSO "Epsilon" fits the name scheme. I can't believe I didn't realize that until just now.

Command Mission was a bad megaman game and a bad RPG.

Hmmm... I hope I have enough punishment in my bag of pain for this...

ZX games are good, but not Zero.

ZX games are worse than Zero, if thats even possible.  Before your mauling I shall allow you to defend your statement.  Make it good, as you have only 10 seconds.

Command Mission was a bad megaman game and a bad RPG.

No such luxury for you.  You get a tomatoe stick up the ass and a kick into the Mauling tent for a fabulous 6 night 7 day vacation in scenic pain town, where your right to have an opinion will be officially revoked.  Command Mission was an ok RPG and a GOOD X game.  It had it's share of flaws, as most decent RPGs do, but it was FAR from bad and felt like the first real X game since X4.

Better story (still not good but doesn't make me want to throw my DS across the room), less rape-you-up-the-ass difficult, dual screens made certain functions easier (even though those functions were by-and-large stupid), and they're not actually defiling the X series characters anymore, just their 'souls'.

Yeah but the whole "souls" idea kind of defiles the X characters in the first place...

"Soul" sounds a lot better than "Cyber elf".

You're not wrong. But I hope when I finally die (March, 2099) my soul doesn't get locked into some suit. I don't need to be the Forsworn Knight (Although he is badass, I don't feel like being locked as an apparition in a suit of armor, unable to do anything for hundreds of years. That's worse than a line at the DMV).

Better story

Same story really.  ZX's own cast is completely subservient to MMZ's GHOST ZOMBIE POWER RANGER characters.  In that respect ZX's story is even WORSE since it's built up completely on MMZ's.

less rape-you-up-the-ass difficult

MMZ in and of itself wasn't THAT hard.  But earning/getting anything past just beating the game WAS.  ZX isn't any harder, but it's not that easier in that respect.

dual screens made certain functions easier (even though those functions were by-and-large stupid)

I don't see anything that really fits that, but sure, ok.

and they're not actually defiling the X series characters anymore, just their 'souls'.

ZX is 90% MMZ5.  It's just as insulting to X as MMZ, if not more because once great characters are reduced to even LESS.  But in the end ZX is just more of the same MMZ bull##### but even #####tier.  In every way.

:: boots into mauling tent ::

Nothing personal.  THIS TIME.

Actually, ZX is insulting to X and Legends.

... that is an EXCELLENT point.  The #####ting on X is just a lot more promonant since it's suppose to be directly spun out of it, while Legends itself isn't connected from it's side yet.  And God willing, it never will be.

God couldn't care less about video games. That kid is playing the most advanced expansion of The Sims you could never imagine lest your brain boil.

True that.

Yes, that is true. And yet, you said MegaMan and ZX in the same point as if they were related to each other.

I could care less how the buster is as long as it is side scrolling action.
