Title: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Wizkid on 14 February 2008, 18:25:47 What do you know about gems on X, Zero, Axl head? ???
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 14 February 2008, 18:30:08 This is probably my new favorite thread.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: preventerWIND on 14 February 2008, 18:31:50 Which gems? I don't kno- OH! Thanks for pointing them out!
Well.. they're shiny... and I think they act as some kind of power supply doodad thinga-majiger. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Someguy on 14 February 2008, 18:33:45 It's the fashion for main characters, that's all
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Xero on 14 February 2008, 20:07:06 I think it states that it stores their central processing units. CPU for short.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 14 February 2008, 23:15:24 I don't think it states that anywhere.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: NovaMan XP on 14 February 2008, 23:21:28 I think it states that it stores their central processing units. CPU for short. Why would they leave something that important in the front of their heads? >_> Axl: Gee, it sure it boring arou-- *smacks head against wall and dies* Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 14 February 2008, 23:22:23 Yes, but that would be wonderful.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Xero on 14 February 2008, 23:38:25 We I think it controls their electronic brain.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: TheRedPriest on 14 February 2008, 23:45:22 Decoration and or sensors. Nothing more.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ChaosVortex on 14 February 2008, 23:47:47 I always thought they were pretty.
So, decoration yes. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Fatso on 14 February 2008, 23:48:35 Decoration and or sensors. Nothing more.You're ruining their fun. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: TheRedPriest on 14 February 2008, 23:51:52 That's all I'm good at.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ChaosVortex on 14 February 2008, 23:52:42 Wait... Zero's gem...
*twitches* "THAT'S A RARE METAL! YOU CAN USE IT TO MAKE A NEW CHIP! WHEN YOU GET BACK TO THE HUNTER BASE, MAKE SURE YOU TAKE IT TO THE LAB!" ... Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: yuri on 15 February 2008, 01:45:28 I think that it is their power source guys.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Fatso on 15 February 2008, 04:38:44 But it doesn't make a bit of difference, guys. The balls are inert.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Winged Warrior on 15 February 2008, 04:49:04 First of all, it's not a gem, it's a plastic covering. Behind that are a few USB ports.
GAWD, NOOBS. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: NovaMan XP on 15 February 2008, 04:53:07 But it doesn't make a bit of difference, guys. The balls are inert. "Hey I just realized.... my body can take it" Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Fatso on 15 February 2008, 04:58:09 THEN THE WHOLE UNIVERSE IS GOING TO DIE!!!
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 15 February 2008, 05:26:47 I think it rather obvious that they are just there because someone designed them to be there and made it look like they had a purpose. That's what we do when we design futuristic ships and such. The audience doesn't need to know what they are as long as they don't look horribly out of place. If it looks as if it's supposed to be there, you don't have to really know what it does and neither does your audience.
But my guess is they'd be sensors. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Captain Sanoguchi on 15 February 2008, 05:28:27 Decoration and or sensors. Nothing more. Nooo, maaaaaan, noooo. It's their soul. Everything is in the soul, man. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 15 February 2008, 05:32:42 It's the Cyber Elf that they actually are. It's in there controlling a robot body like that alien that has the galaxy in Men In Black. When the robot body gets destroyed the cyber elf says ##### it and just floats around for a billion years until a mad scientist sucks it up a la Ghostbusters and makes it into a Live Metal and then that Live Metal digivolves into Trigger later.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Captain Sanoguchi on 15 February 2008, 05:34:22 Then they betray them for Supra Force Metal.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 15 February 2008, 05:42:10 Supra Force Metal is made for the bodies of deceased Cyber Elves. The bodies retain a minimal level of residue from the elf's power after it dies.

Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Chron on 19 February 2008, 13:03:30 Those gems are design choices in all reploids but X and Zero. Cain couldn't figure out what the hell it was for, so he just assumed they needed it.
It's actually a holographic pornography generator. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: preventerWIND on 19 February 2008, 13:03:58 It's a toaster.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Panda on 19 February 2008, 13:57:15 I'm glad he circled them in the pictures, to make them easier to find.
They obviously do something, since Zero was effected and possibly transmitted the Virus (aids?) to Sigma when he was (FAAAALCON) punched there. And Axl (the Japanese schoolgirl) was infected or something when he was attacked by what's his name... Lumine (tentacle monster). I think they're USB ports. Or genitals. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Dopefish on 19 February 2008, 15:26:57 I remember it saying in the beginning of MMX1 that X's "gem" was a "eye" or camera. But since he has 2 eyes that does not make much sence. :P
Maybe its for Wi-Fi internet access? Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Cherry on 19 February 2008, 16:21:56 Well, in any instance where the gem is damaged (Zero's in the MMX4 flashback, and Axl's at the end of X8), they shut down or collapse or whatever. So I think it's gotta have something to do with their power source.
But, really... It's just a design thing Capcom's trying to inject use into. Other Reploids don't have them and they function just fine. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: yuri on 19 February 2008, 21:30:49 I remember it saying in the beginning of MMX1 that X's "gem" was a "eye" or camera. But since he has 2 eyes that does not make much sence. :P The eyes are so he can look tough. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Fatso on 19 February 2008, 23:42:39 If you look closer at what he wrote, you'll realize he already said that.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Lunchebox on 20 February 2008, 00:08:23 The gem's are robot genitals. It's there where the virus gets passed.
STDs, mofo. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Chron on 20 February 2008, 00:30:51 Oh, no, no, no guys. I got it!
Now, what Cherry is saying makes sense... but it made me remember that sometimes Zero's will display a little W from time to time, right? What if that's like some sort of debugging/HUD display for development and repair? Makes sense to me. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Dopefish on 20 February 2008, 15:17:08 Oh I get it now...
*Sees Dr.Cain trying to fix X* Dr. Cain: Letme see...What! *Dr Cain looks at X's Gem* X's Gem-thingie reads: "Runtime error 1:900 can't read weapon drive". Dr. Cain: Crap! Stupid Windows XXXP! Hey I have question....Do Reploids run on Windows or Linux? I suppose since they can get viruses...They must run on Windows...or DOS. The eyes are so he can look tough. Well that did not work out to well, X is a sissy coward at times. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Lunchebox on 20 February 2008, 19:34:09 He's not a coward, since he goes and kills reploids anyway.
He just turned into kind of a pussy. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 21 February 2008, 03:09:55 A pussy that takes care of business, at least.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Xero on 21 February 2008, 09:04:10 Pacifist is moar like it.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Lunchebox on 21 February 2008, 10:25:40 Yeah, a pussy. That's what we said.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: yuri on 21 February 2008, 11:46:51 Hey dude don't say that some of my friends are pacifists and they are awesome.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Panda on 21 February 2008, 12:10:16 So according to you, pussies aren't awesome?
Gay. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Lunchebox on 21 February 2008, 13:06:03 So according to you, pussies aren't awesome? Screw you, I was going to #####ing say that. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Dopefish on 21 February 2008, 18:23:45 Maybe X is just like Kwai Chang Caine...He only uses force when it is absolutely necessary.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Rama Olendris on 21 February 2008, 21:43:33 I'm glad he circled them in the pictures, to make them easier to find. Infection is a hint to what they may actually be- I think they are a very sensitive, very important part of their design which can accept data and transmit data as well. Also, in the Zero series, we can notice both Copy X and Elf X emit a ring of (DNA??) data from their foreheads right where that 'gem' would have been. Either way... the series has hinted that they are important in some way. However... why does it seem that most of the humanoid-type-battle reploids only have them? Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: TheRedPriest on 21 February 2008, 21:53:13 Citing anything MMZ automatically renders any argument void.
But as a parting gift you get a copy of X7 for cell phones. ENJOY! Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Rama Olendris on 21 February 2008, 21:57:04 Citing anything MMZ automatically renders any argument void. Thanks but no. And the RMZ citation was just to add further 'evidence' that the gems obviously have some sort of important function. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ChaosVortex on 21 February 2008, 21:58:26 But as a parting gift you get a copy of X7 for cell phones. ENJOY! I didn't think it was possible. I thought it couldn't get any worse. WHY MUST YOU MAKE ME SUFFER!? Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: TheRedPriest on 21 February 2008, 22:00:20 Because that's all I'm good at.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 23 February 2008, 04:01:30 Maybe its for Wi-Fi internet access? Possible, since the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB connector (not "dongle", losers) has a gem on it too. The eyes are so he can look tough. ... Seriously. Seriously, am I being Punk'd? Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 23 February 2008, 04:09:35 At first glance I thought "The eyes are so he can look tough" was supposed to be a clever joke, but I realized that there was no joke to be found and I just sort of sat there trying to think of ways to respond.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 23 February 2008, 04:12:24 Up until now I thought he wrote "The eyes are so he can look through."
But whatever, it's still dumb. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Dopefish on 23 February 2008, 15:30:57 It does not make much sence anyway.
X WOULD look more tough if his eyes were like Vile's. ;D Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 26 February 2008, 20:40:03 Then the Star Wars jokes would rise to a whole new level.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Fatso on 26 February 2008, 23:53:33 I didn't think that was even possible!
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 27 February 2008, 08:25:14 Then the Star Wars jokes would rise to a whole new level. Nothing can repel jokes of THIS magnitude! (http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/thumb/e/e9/300px-AckbarStanding.jpg) Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Elemix on 27 February 2008, 09:05:09 Maybe the gems on there heads are made for scanning weapons from mavericks once defeated?
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 27 February 2008, 18:07:34 ...that's actually a good one.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Fatso on 27 February 2008, 18:09:31 Except it's drawing its inspiration from the old Animated Series, which automatically defeats it ultimately and totally.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Dopefish on 28 February 2008, 17:39:13 I used watch that show every sunday morning at 7:00 and 7:30. I watched it again when I bought the MMAC....Then I wondered why the crap I ever did that!
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 1 March 2008, 02:20:57 You should rent the DVDs. The first episode is one thing, the whole series is a whole other ball game.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Dopefish on 1 March 2008, 02:39:26 Yeah.... "The Night of the Living Monster Bots" was a little much.
I've seen just about all of them though....All 18 episodes or so...I taped some actually. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: NovaMan XP on 1 March 2008, 03:18:50 ...there were only 18 episodes?
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 1 March 2008, 04:10:37 Would YOU want to make more?
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: NovaMan XP on 1 March 2008, 04:18:33 Yeah, and it'll have blackjack, and hookers!
I actually thought that you know... that a TV show would have more episodes than that. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: preventerWIND on 1 March 2008, 04:27:18 Yeah, and it'll have blackjack, and hookers!FLAPJACKS and hookers. Flapjacks. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 1 March 2008, 05:19:03 Can't it be both?
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: preventerWIND on 1 March 2008, 05:27:50 No, by the time you finish eating the flapjacks you won't wanna do anything but sleep.
And by the time you finish at the blackjack table, you won't afford the flapjacks! Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 1 March 2008, 05:55:21 Dumbass. You play blackjack and win the hooker. Do the deed, and then you'll be starving for flapjacks. And you'll have them. It was part of the hooker winnings.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: preventerWIND on 1 March 2008, 06:14:03 Well, obviously you've done this before! How would I know?
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 1 March 2008, 06:26:28 With the magic of imagination, anything is possible!
IMAGINAAAAAAATION! Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Winged Warrior on 1 March 2008, 07:24:14 With the magic of imagination, anything is possible! ^ +^'s Avatar = Awesome. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Dopefish on 1 March 2008, 21:23:19 With the magic of imagination, anything is possible!Don't forget a box! (http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k121/Megamannt92/spongebob-imagination.jpg) I actually thought that you know... that a TV show would have more episodes than that. If you watched the show you would know why only a little amount episodes were produced. And besides that MegaMan was using steroids during that time....Not a very good example for the kiddies out there. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 1 March 2008, 21:40:41 I thought he was using Android Growth Hormone. Like BarryBondsMan did.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 2 March 2008, 01:31:52 He never used any of that junk! Stop spreading lies!
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Xero on 2 March 2008, 01:50:19 Oh they used it all right.
Take a look at Gutsman. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 3 March 2008, 23:19:33 He's more guts than man these days, really.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Blitzkrieg on 16 March 2008, 08:10:20 Dumbass. You play blackjack and win the hooker. Do the deed, and then you'll be starving for flapjacks. And you'll have them. It was part of the hooker winnings. Question: if you don't pay a hooker after you've had sex with her, is it rape or shoplifting? And guys, I don't know why we're missing the most basic and rudimentary function that all robots must have: an mp3 player. Gems on the forehead, the player, the huge freaking ear pieces: headphones. Come on, get with the program. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Dopefish on 17 March 2008, 14:23:06 Just remember they are not IPods! I hate when people call every Mp3 player an "IPod".
Apple makes the most poorly built Mp3 players anyway. They are the only Mp3 players with an expiration date. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Fatso on 17 March 2008, 20:56:21 I had two, they each lasted exactly five months and then crapped out. I know what you mean :(
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Orange Devil on 22 March 2008, 16:18:44 You can ask what the Gem is for just because it looks significant, but you can also ask "Why is Megaman blue?" "Why does he change colors when his weapons change?" "Why does Zero have hair?"
There are endless questions that result in one answer: Character design. The gem is there so that you will think that he looks cool. Period. *funkill* Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: NovaMan XP on 22 March 2008, 18:23:55 Actually... why the ##### DOES MegaMan really change colors for? I know it's cool and all... but wow, I just realized how little sense it makes.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Johncarllos on 22 March 2008, 19:21:49 Uh, it's a side effect of gaining power of another robot master.
Also, it looks cool. AND, it helps the player bunches. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 22 March 2008, 19:26:35 It actually would not be cool in real life at all.
It's obviously just so you know right away which power you have on. I don't think it ever happens in the cutscenes, comics, or tv shows. They are the only Mp3 players with an expiration date. I had two, they each lasted exactly five months and then crapped out. I know what you mean :( What? I've had my iPod for two years and it works fine. And I drop it on the ground at least once a day (there's no good place to put it when I'm in the animation lab). If you're an idiot who can't not break stuff all the time then you're not allowed to talk about how long anything lasts. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Orange Devil on 23 March 2008, 15:09:11 Actually... why the ##### DOES MegaMan really change colors for? I know it's cool and all... but wow, I just realized how little sense it makes. As if that was the only part of my post that you even read... I'm so sick of people complaining that video games and movies are "Unrealistic". I want someone to make a game that is 100% like real life and force them to play that and just that for all of eternity just to shut them up. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 23 March 2008, 23:56:01 They are the only Mp3 players with an expiration date.I had two, they each lasted exactly five months and then crapped out. I know what you mean :( I've had my iPod Video since 2005, when it first came out, and in that time it's been stolen twice, found twice, dropped countless times as would be expected over the course of 3 years, and soaked in water when on a boat. Works like a charm, albeit slightly scratched. I take care of my stuff, but accidents happen and so far my iPod works great and looks to continue doing so for years to come. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Kayauts on 3 April 2008, 08:05:50 Yeah I agree. Ipods are extremely durable, but when you have the new shuffle like I do, you can pretty much say EVERYTHING breaks faster than it. It's basically a microchip and a headphone jack deep-fried in steel alloy, and there you have it, an indestrucltable Ipod.
Just to prove a point before, I literally "threw" it at a brick wall (more of a toss than a full on chuck) but none the less I still retrieved it undamaged and un-scratched. It's charging right now ^^ Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 3 April 2008, 11:46:04 See, yeah, I'm not about to go throw any iPods or the like into any brick walls. That's really just retarded.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ChaosVortex on 3 April 2008, 21:06:22 I have a $300 iPod. I'm not throwing it unless you give me $300.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: preventerWIND on 3 April 2008, 21:09:23 Yeah, same goes. I've had enough crap break on me, so I'm not about to trash my iPod till somebody pays me.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 5 April 2008, 07:34:41 It would survive and more than likely act totally normal if you threw it anyway. It will take surface damage maybe. Like I said, I drop my 1st gen Nano daily.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 6 April 2008, 02:30:22 I still wouldn't deliberately do it.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: preventerWIND on 7 April 2008, 04:17:48 1. You're not funny
2. Lumine is a MAN 3. We're talking about iPods now, can't you see? Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: albert on 9 May 2008, 14:55:26 i dont know ???
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ChaosVortex on 9 May 2008, 15:01:33 Don't know what? Why you randomly uploaded a random Mega Man X gif?
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Xzeemo on 9 May 2008, 15:13:55 Can we even post gif's? I forgot. Or is that just with our avy's? Hmm, either way, this guy needs to stop posting fragment sentences.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Abominator on 9 May 2008, 17:00:46 It's just in avatars.
Although I don't agree with randomly posting them for no apparant reason. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 9 May 2008, 20:43:04 In his defense (keep in mind this is likely the only defense he'll ever get),
"I don't know." is not a fragment sentence. Typing it as "i dont know ???" is a bit of a disgrace, though, and negates any further defense. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Xzeemo on 9 May 2008, 23:15:20 He forgot a period though. So it isn't a sentence technically. >.>
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: megajosh2 on 11 May 2008, 15:22:45 Obviously it's a gem. Retard...
Maybe the gems on there heads are made for scanning weapons from mavericks once defeated? I agree... It makes sense, kinda looking like a light. It could like, laser scan the weapons or something.[/weedsp33k] Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Fatso on 12 May 2008, 03:38:10 NO! NO MORE RUBYSPEARS REFERENCES ALLOWED. GET OUT.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Blitzkrieg on 11 June 2008, 20:11:02 You know....it's kind of weird that the gem on X's head is a Ruby looking thing, and the cartoon company was called Rubyspears.
IT'S A CONSPIRACY Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 11 June 2008, 20:12:40 That's not weird at all.
You're weird. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Irisblossom on 11 June 2008, 23:44:43 maby the gem is their life?????? or something that keeps them from shutting down durring something important unless they are shot or hit there????? ok i got nothing
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Johncarllos on 11 June 2008, 23:58:09 ...
It's nothing but bling dood. X is the MAN because he has a diamond land in Platinum. Axl has clay laid in cigarette ashes. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ChaosVortex on 15 June 2008, 03:02:05 Y'see, Axl shouldn't even be a main character. He's an oddball. If I'm not mistaken, X and Zero are both similar in character design. Likewise with the gems.
Axl is totally different. He should've been a helping reploid in the horror that is X7 and had just been killed off. Again, it's just there for show. At the least, they're like headlights. They turn off when the car dies. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 15 June 2008, 07:45:42 You mean "Axl shouldn't even be a character period" actually.
Anyway, again; I don't think it's a light, or eye, or anything. I think they just take in information. They take readings of crap. Or they're just gems, and that's the way it is. But they probably have a function. Robots aren't really made to have or into having frivolous luxuries. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Chron on 15 June 2008, 15:55:02 Assuming the helmets can be removed, that's probably what it is.
Some sort of advanced sensor system. Might enable them to scan the surrounding area within a few feet to provide the sort of recon we get from our third person perspective in the game. But I like the idea of it being a headlamp. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ChaosVortex on 15 June 2008, 17:56:36 You mean "Axl shouldn't even be a character period" actually. I don't hate him that badly, but yes, I do hate him in his standing role. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Kamon on 16 June 2008, 00:14:11 In X3, the upgrade Dr Light gives X lets him get radar images from satellites via the gem. He says it's a "sensor upgrade" or something to that effect. So the basic version might just scan in immediate area for hazards, or transmit a live video feed back to Hunter HQ so the Navigators can see what X and the others see.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head?

They made Li-bear-ty, eh? Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: TheRedPriest on 23 June 2008, 15:59:17 well some people get a little bord playing as x or zero Hmmm... maybe they should play a DIFFERENT game then? Seriously, if people get board of playing as Mario the solution isn't to make a new character named Cliff who throws pipe bombs, you PLAY A DIFFERENT #####ING GAME. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Edgecrusher on 23 June 2008, 16:00:55 Actually...
There have been some Mario games where I would have LOVED playing as Cliff Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Chron on 24 June 2008, 02:43:51 Yeah, but Cliff is cool. Axl isn't.
X has a gun for an arm. In some cases, both of his arms are guns. The man can't even drink coffee without shooting something. No wonder he's a pacifist. Zero also has a seldom-used gun for an arm, but he opts to use a laser sword. In a futuristic world of bullets and beams and stuff, he tears through things with a laser sword. Axl just carries around a couple of pistols. They aren't even attached to his body. One of these things doesn't belong. One of these things is different. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Lunchebox on 25 June 2008, 19:49:26 If your character doesn't have a gun for an arm, then he doesn't belong.

And once again, I don't see what you're getting at. Almost all of the robots in every game you listed has, you guessed it, a gun for an arm. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head?

Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Lunchebox on 26 June 2008, 05:02:53 If your character doesn't have a gun for an arm, then he doesn't belong. If I could have the power to slap people over the internet, I would do it right now. Axl, among his many, MANY, problems (Appearance, personality, THE FACT THAT HE'S ON THE SAME LEVEL AS X AND ZERO RIGHT OFF THE BAT, his wanting to bone X, that Reploid DNA bull#####, etc etc), he lacks a gun for an arm, and does not follow what has been a very awesome pattern and heritage. That heritage? Guns for arms. It's like having your forearm turn into a ##### that can kill people, and I think we can all agree that's admirable. you get the idea im a girl,right because i am a GIRL!!!!!!!!!!! >:( Big #####ing deal, "lady". your point?????/ I refuse to believe you're this dense. I'm just hoping English is your second language, and you don't actually comprehend half the things we're saying, and hence the very terrible posts. Oh wait, you're one of those people that think Axl isn't a #####ty character, and Megaman Zero was a wonderful, fulfilling game. Harmless beliefs on their own, but combined with that stubbornness so common in your ilk, that refusal to adhere to grammar, punctuation, capitalization (Seriously, you know where that goddamn shift key is), and this weird assumption (that a lot of girls seem to be guilty of, really) that having a vagina = a passport to act however you like online. You should probably just go to RPM, where the rest of the trash (and "girls") like to post. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head?

Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 26 June 2008, 06:28:08 If herpes could kill people in the first place. More like super-syphilis or amazo-AIDS.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 26 June 2008, 07:04:08 It can kill people because it's super.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 26 June 2008, 07:08:47 NO NO NO! "Super" only augments it's abilities! Killing is out. of. range. At best, super-herpes could make your whole bod a herp. Which would be painful and gross and embarrassing enough that you'd kill yourself.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 26 June 2008, 07:11:47 So, yeah, I was right!
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 26 June 2008, 07:17:32 That's hardly immediate, and YOU kill yourself!
Herpes don't kill people, people kill people! Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 26 June 2008, 07:21:43 So, if you're a super person, are you better at dying? Because, like, it augments it's abilities, making them super. And dying counts as an ability.
Does it also augment your sense of humor? Like, did SuperMan have a super sense of humor? Was SuperMan #####ing hilarious? Was SuperMan THE MAN? Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 26 June 2008, 07:34:24 Dead people aren't people. Zombies, vampires, Jesuses, patchwork Frankensteins/Edward Scissorhandses, and other undead types aren't really people because people have to be alive. So super people are better at living, which is why Superman ages very slowly.

Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Chron on 3 November 2008, 14:35:18 All format wars are driven by porn.

Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Johncarllos on 3 November 2008, 15:46:14 I knew that.
Porn likes Sony more than Microsoft. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Chron on 3 November 2008, 17:37:43 ... what does Microsoft have to do with video format wars?
Anyway, historically it seems they choose the format with the smallest size but highest amount of space for content. Hence why Beta never made it big (sadchron.gif) Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 3 November 2008, 23:23:34 I really don't see the point of Blu-Ray or care to. There's a point where I don't need or even want more special features on a movie. I really think it should've gone like how music went. Digital. Example;
Music Phonograph cylinder > Gramophone disc > Vinyl > Reel-to-reel > 8-track tape > Cassette tape > CDs > Mp3 > ??? Obviously I skipped a lot of less notable advancements, but my point is just that it should move completely to something digital. I know it already has pretty much, since you can get a video of any movie, and some movies comes with a digital copy and there's netflix and all that jargon but I think my point stands. I just don't see the point of blu-ray other than HD. But I've yet to move into the HD realm so whatever. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Chron on 3 November 2008, 23:47:43 HD looks nice, and Blu-Ray movies are great, but I'm someone who cares more about content than I do video quality. So I understand that.
Blu-Ray is a fully digital medium, though, with its own codec (just like MPEG Layer-3 is a codec). The disc is a portable means of storage for the digital data, albeit shielded by a metric #####ton of "security measures". But I catch the drift that you mean downloadable, and they are, they're all just horrifyingly large. Blu-Ray is a storage medium; it serves as the storage device for the encoded digital data. The last non-digital video medium was the laser disc, which actually stored analog images (at least the wave form for composite video feed) on the disc itself. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Fatso on 4 November 2008, 00:26:42 Video quality is whatever it is for me (although it's nice, it is by no means necessary as long as I can see what I need to see), but audio quality is a necessity and is the root of my problem with online music vending. I didn't pay for a #####ty 128kbps MP3 (if I'm lucky it might even be stereo) that chunks out at the first cymbal hit. I payed for a song I can listen to. Send me the uncompressed audio, I'll handle the rest.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Chron on 4 November 2008, 01:57:46 FLAC is pretty decent for HQ audio.
I'm not one to particularly care about audio quality, either, as long as it isn't below standard or grating or whatnot. But I can hear the difference between raw audio (WAV in this instance) and an MP3. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Fatso on 4 November 2008, 02:02:02 FLAC is only one step below raw in terms of filesize anyway, but for example the size of iTunes music files is such that they couldn't be any better than 192kbps, which is only borderline acceptable for me, which is why I've moved to self-encoding from raw instead.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Chron on 4 November 2008, 02:04:01 And it works with OGG, and that's always good.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: TheRedPriest on 4 November 2008, 17:49:10 I've noticed 128kbps being low quality more in recent years. But anything at 192 or higher sounds good to me.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 5 November 2008, 03:13:11 I never check the kbps.
If I get a crap sounding mp3 I either bear it until I buy the album, or delete it. But good quality mp3s on iTunes are fine with me. When I import a CD to iTunes, it still sounds almost exactly the same. And I only say "almost" because there's just the touch that it's become digital, which could just be my speakers/headphones themselves. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Chron on 5 November 2008, 13:28:22 ... isn't the iTunes default format MP4?
It's a bit more advanced and clear than MP3. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Fatso on 5 November 2008, 16:00:15 The format they sell you has file-extension M4P which if I recall correctly is protected AAC.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 6 November 2008, 04:14:25 Perhaps if you buy from the iTunes store. I don't, so I don't know. But my iTunes imports from CDs as mp3.
Maybe, at some point, I set it to do that. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Fatso on 6 November 2008, 04:31:11 iTunes defaults CD ripping as M4A (AAC unprotected), so that's probably your own setting. I gave up a long time ago and started ripping WAVs instead and just encoding them myself if I need portability.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Abominator on 7 November 2008, 00:15:38 iTunes is for bennys.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Fatso on 7 November 2008, 03:09:57 These days I can't imagine ever using anything but Winamp for audio anyway.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 7 November 2008, 06:18:59 I can't have Winamp on this OS so I originally just went with what it had temporarily. That turned permanent when I got an iPod Shuffle. I'm still using iPod so I'm still using iTunes. Otherwise, I'd probably not use it.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 7 November 2008, 14:49:32 I use WinAmp for VIDEO stuff, and iTunes for music, but only because I have an iPod and it makes that whole dealio easier.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Chron on 8 November 2008, 01:29:42 I use WinAmp for everything music/video related (unless the plugins are bugged or non-existent, like SIDs).
I would rather not use anything else these days. I can't have Winamp on this OS so I originally just went with what it had temporarily. That turned permanent when I got an iPod Shuffle. I'm still using iPod so I'm still using iTunes. Otherwise, I'd probably not use it. ... what OS are you using, DOS? As far as I know there's a distro of WinAmp for every major OS. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 8 November 2008, 02:45:43 OK well at least when I got this Mac, I couldn't get Winamp for it. I want a new one anyway.
(I just realized my computer saw me type that is probably getting mad, worried, or MAD worried.) By now, there's probably some gimmick that lets me iPod up with Winamp too... Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Chron on 8 November 2008, 02:54:01 There may be some kind of freeware tool, but to be honest, with an iPod you want iTunes running on it; the program is optimized for the device (at least I hope it is).
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 8 November 2008, 03:12:13 Eh, sometimes I wonder.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Chron on 8 November 2008, 03:17:39 That's because it's Apple.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Mikero on 8 November 2008, 03:49:39 Well, iPod at least. My other Mac stuff has been great. But iTunes talking to iPods is lacking. With 1st gen iPod nano anyway.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: TheRedPriest on 10 November 2008, 15:07:23 iTunes is one of the #####tiest music players ever made. Winamp beats it by a mile in every possible way. Ease of use, options, display, skins, orginization, etc etc...
iTunes isn't a music player, it's a portal to a music store, and it shows compared to actual music players. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 10 November 2008, 15:57:39 I very much prefer Winamp to iTunes in every way, but I use iTunes because I have an iPod and that's the only reason why.

Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: NovaMan XP on 10 November 2008, 21:19:58 Damn, that looks nice.
... how much are iPods normally? Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: preventerWIND on 10 November 2008, 21:22:02 It varies from iPod to iPod, nano's go about a bill and a half brand new. They've been known to go up to 300 bucks.
iPod's look very nice, and they work pretty well(ignoring the iTunes coversion and #####), but too expensive. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: Johncarllos on 10 November 2008, 21:45:27 I'm happy with my Zune.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 10 November 2008, 21:58:24 My roommate has a Zune and it doesn't work at all with his Mac, so he's stuck with the same set of songs on them.
Anyway, from what I've seen, iPods are definitely the best of all MP3 players out there, unless you strictly just want the simplicity of listening to music. I have a handful of mini MP3-players that were given out to me as freebies for events and things over time. Including one that came with the Transformers DVD. And they all work just fine. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: TheRedPriest on 10 November 2008, 22:00:23 I very much prefer Winamp to iTunes in every way, but I use iTunes because I have an iPod and that's the only reason why. Winamp synches with an ipod just fine anymore. Get rid of iTunes. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 10 November 2008, 22:02:34 Explain yourself. How does that work?
Basically I use WinAmp to open single audio files, and for all forms of video. But I use iTunes if I just want to open it up and have no idea what I want to listen to. Another problem I have is that there is a large percentage of my music library that is DRM-protected because I bought them from iTunes back when my parents were giving my iTunes cards and allowances. So, like, 25% of my music library would be forfeited if I switched. That actually REALLY pisses me off and has done so for a long, long time. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head?

Post by: TheRedPriest on 11 November 2008, 15:13:05 Another problem I have is that there is a large percentage of my music library that is DRM-protected because I bought them from iTunes back when my parents were giving my iTunes cards and allowances. That. Also that is why I have never nor will I ever buy digital music. It's gotten a bit better with the removal of DRM, but you still can't get full 320 kbps or variable bitrate music. It's all still rather low quality. Buy the CD. Rip it. Tag it. It's not that hard. If a CD does not exist, you have to take what you can get, but most digital only stuff can be found in pretty good bitrate. To address your question though, you would just use the sync option in Winamp and it should work just like itunes/ipod do. I don't HAVE an ipod so I've not been able to do it myself, but all indications point to Winamp having gottent iPod syncing to work just fine. As for your DRM problem, there should be converters out there to remove the DRM, but past that I can't help you as I never bought any of that ##### and have never needed to convert said files. But yeah, the DRM ##### is nothing but a tool to allow Apple to keep thier monopoly on digital music. Would YOU switch servieces or players if all your music wouldn't work on the new player/platform? Apple didn't think so either. ##### Apple. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 11 November 2008, 15:19:01 I'll look into the Winamp/iPod syncing.
As for DRM-removal, one of these days I'm going to go through and figure out which songs are DRM-protected and which aren't, and then go through the long process of converting them. Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: TheRedPriest on 11 November 2008, 15:24:47 Or just reaquire them. I'm sure you can get them from friends or CDs. Hell, if I HAD anything you have that is DRM'd I'd send it to you out of spite. Besides, you've paid for the #####ing song. You have EVERY right to play it on whatever platform you want, dispite what RIAA lawyers want to legistlate.
Title: Re: Gems on X, Zero, Axl head? Post by: ASR on 11 November 2008, 15:27:55 There's actually a large amount of songs that I HAVE re-downloaded. I forgot about doing that, that would probably be easier than trying to convert them all. But yeah, I'll figure it out.
