Nah, they already announced yet another Battle Network game.

I hope for a Zero 4, but at the same time I'd like them to quit while they're ahead.

yay battle network. though...i'm not too fond of the DS, yet. i really don't want to have to TOUCH a megaman game.

I still have to play through Mega Man Zero 2 and 3 (both I picked up recently). I heard somewhere that the ending to Zero 3 ties up what happened with Dr. Wily and the events between MMX and the original series. I really have to see if that's true.

BTW, MMX4 was good, but only for its cut scenes. Gameplay-wise, X1-3 were still stronger. X4 just looked purty that's all.

I actually always thought that X4 paled in comparison to MM8's graphics and animation. MMX 1-3 really were the best.

And yeah, some crazy story shit in MMZ2-3. Some mention of Sigma, too.

Cool, I guess I'll have to dedicate some time to both MMZ games.

I could never really compare X4 with MM8 since one tried to be a more serious techno world while the other was a more bright, pastel-colored world.

In case you guys were wondering how lame the X8 bosses are...

Ta-da

I was hoping it would be a Portugeuse Man-O-War, oh well. "Optic Sunflower" - Holy christ... I still need to get MMZ and MMZ 3.

I don't think anything can quite beat "Tornado Tonion" from X7.

The level design in X5 kicked the shit out of X4. The constant interruptions during the action for stupid hints was what killed it, but once those stopped I liked the game a lot more than X4.

Oh, and X4 had better production values too, but meh. I always skip the cutscenes in it anyway.
