I'm Making a Mega Man Thread. My fate is sealed. I have... no choice.

Looks like I'm just better at the game as Zero, as I cleared the lasers without Dark Hold, which got me the trophy! Yay!

(Also pretty pissed at Dark Hold. I used it on that underwater ship mini boss and it kept firing missles at me. Like the what the hell? I'll give a pass to the mavericks, but a bleeping mini boss? Bleep you Capcom.)

Yeah this makes sense. (According to a comment on Protodude's blog this was only on the Japanese direct, despite being in English so weird.)

It does figure we'd get this before anything Legends.

Much as I'd love to have Legends 1 and 2 + Misadventures of Tron Bonne (And in a perfect world we'd get that inbetween demo thing for Legends 2 and the demo for the scrapped Legends 3 we were promised)

I honestly doubt Capcom is going to release anything related to that series at all. :/

The main event comes last.

Yeah this makes sense. (According to a comment on Protodude's blog this was only on the Japanese direct, despite being in English so weird.)

Not exactly; there was a trailer with gameplay in the Direct, but in Japanese. He suspects that maybe the English version wasn't ready for a trailer yet.

Anyway, this was the highlight of the Direct for me, even though we didn't actually get it in ours.

I just hope they do something to mitigate the random encounters in 2. That's where the whole thing lost me. Loved 1 (Dragon, natch), but never got to play 3. Partly because I never finished 2, partly because I don't think I could afford it at the time.

It's time for the: "Beat the Black Devil" part of the game run. I hate this boss.

Gotta do it three times if I want the trophy for all the endings. Bah.

I hate its pattern is never quite the same. I hate its stupid aura takes up half the arena. I hate the eye can form anywhere, and I hate it has to shoot energy at you with said eye.

I know I've done it before, I beat the game with all three people on the PS1, but I'm not sure how I did this. I'm also annoyed that I'm pretty sure I STILL can't save after it either. It'd just make me re-do all the stages.

I got a copy of Zero! The second issue is for my friend who got a me a copy of Classic and X!

Question tho, I've only started on Zero 1. I only beat that Anubis boss in the upper left and haven't met the other three on the cover.

Soooo, uh, I doubt I can finish the Zero 1 to 4 games any time soon. Would I enjoy reading the Zero Timelines even without playing / finishing the games?

Would ask the same question on Zero X Timelines.

Well, slight spoilers, but the comic basically adapts the beginning of Zero 2. The comic is basically set in between Zero 1 and 2. So, it does kind of spoil the ending to the first Zero game. But, if you already know about the ending of Zero 1, you can probably read it without any problem. It's more of a character study for the Bosses than anything else. If you don't know how the first Zero game ends...maybe wait until finishing the first game. Zero 1 has a memorable enough ending, that I don't want to spoil it for you.

The ZX Timelines issue hasn't come out yet. I think that one's out October 1 (unless it gets pushed back again). So, I don't know about that one.
