The game sold very poorly in comparison to their other franchises; and it's not even really that good. <br />Honestly, the main and ultimate reason why their not going to make it is because the cost for development outweighs the return. <br />Capcom is doing EXACTLY what a company should do; cut out what doesn't make money and move onto what makes profits.<br />The real reason for Mega man legends 3 cancellation is because the minority of fans who like Mega Man is shadowed by the fans who like Street Fighter.

Oh well.<br /><br />Like I said, not here to argue. Consider this though, two points. The fans are in an ever-growing uproar since Capcom started it. I repeat, Capcom started it. Fans were alright with MM9 and MM10 but I feel the last true, physical release was with MHX in what, 2006? Six years later and we are way overdue for something new. Not a remake, not an 8-Bit Gimmick. So, "whining" as one may call it, is somewhat warranted. I'm all for a new Strider game myself, but those properties when compared to Mega Man, their mascot, don't hold up (Commando was their mascot, but still lol). Mega Man deserves way more and they just don't have the creative minds they used to. That's a fact.<br /><br />Now my other points is that Capcom literally has nothing to lose by releasing the prototype version. All they'd have to lose is time. As Hypershell said, it's just gathering digital dust on their hard drives. Even when Nintendo's percentages on the eShop are taken out, they'd still get some good money. They don't have to pay for packaging or shipments or any such logistics. So I still feel they should AT LEAST release the prototype version to gauge interest per the original plan. No reason at all why they shouldn't.<br /><br />As for my comparisons, you are taking them the wrong way. I'm not comparing the legacy of these games, but the general similarities themselves. Legends 3 is a type of game that the 3DS lacks now. If they keep on holding out on us, they might as well just port it to a different system, Vita preferred. Once Kingdom Hearts 3D comes out, that similar genre will be set for a while.<br /><br />I'll openly admit it couldn't stand up to that title, at least from what we've seen, but I still feel it would sell well and at least recoup the production costs. I'll also go as far as to say that if the Prototype version fails in statistics, I'll admit defeat as actual proof would then be calculated.MegaMachttp://megamanx9.com/forum/index.php?/user/4-mac/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-29389923507994156382012-05-10T23:48:57.735-05:002012-05-10T23:48:57.735-05:00They REALLY sound INSINCEREThey REALLY sound INSINCEREAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-35596414372409645972012-05-09T09:50:37.629-05:002012-05-09T09:50:37.629-05:00@MegaMac: You are still using comparisons you shou...@MegaMac: You are still using comparisons you shouldn't be. Do you know what Ocarina of Time is? It's the best selling Zelda title. Legends isn't the best selling Megaman title. By the comparison you are providing, Capcom should run to X or BN for a new game, not Legends. Henceforth, nope. Stop using the bad comparison. <br /><br />In several interviews, Capcom stated Prototype content would not be in the retail game. And the costs of prototype were supposed to help recoup money and go towards the actual game. You do understand the risks right? Prototype pretty much determines if the actual game has enough money to be on level with the actual demo, and other factors. While assets would be resued, the rest of the game could suffer.<br /><br />In addition, 'Mega Man deserves a lot more than what it's getting' Funny, ask the Captain Commando fans that same question, as well as the Strider fans, and Darkstalker fans who are tired of having the same 3 characters(Morrigan, Felicia, and Hsien-Ko) representing the franchise. Hell even the Nintendo fanbase is having that with several franchises.<br /><br />By many, MvC3 is an abyssmal failure by many mainly because it only tried to be relevant(Only Strider hasn't seen a game in within the previous 2 console generations), and sucked up to the RE fans way too much, and on the Marvel side it pissed off the Spiderman, Fantastic Four, and Captain America fans among other things. If anything, TvC provided better fanservice because of diversity on the roster, especially the Tatsunoko side.<br /><br />And tell me, when are you going to get your launch window? *assumes Wonka pose* You do know most 3DS owners own it mainly for Nitnendo exclusives right? And I mean THE exclusives like Mario right? They know this year at least 2, maybe three will be coming in the later half. There's a Mario and Zelda title floating around as well as Smash Bros. And with the Wii U floating around, I can guarantee a good chunk of their money WILL go for that system and the AAA launch titles.<br /><br />Also, I feel Kid Icarus had the superior light hearted feel compared to previous Legends titles, and that Xenoblade did the open world concept on a great scale. Legends 3 would be compared to those 2, and I feeel it would fall flat on its face.Torchmannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-87166389659410647572012-05-09T03:14:42.894-05:002012-05-09T03:14:42.894-05:00@Torchman
I want to make myself very clear. I am ...@Torchman<br /><br />I want to make myself very clear. I am not here to argue. I'm not here to whine. Instead of outright whining like some fans, I am here to call it how I see it. Quite frankly, kissing Capcom's ass and trying to explain the situation of the franchise is not helping a single thing. Of course either way, nothing seems to be helping and there is really no explaining Capcom's agendas. Understand this, Capcom really hit home with Mega Man and over the years when they just drop the Mega Ball, and hard, they are going to get some sizable feedback. The very opposite of positive. <br /><br />I'm going to have to disagree with most of your points but you made them, they're yours. Mega Man is a major name in the gaming industry. Always has been since his conception, always will be. Darkstalkers is not and in its case, it's more understandable, but I'm sorry, Mega Man deserves a lot more than what it's getting. For example with your Smash Bros references, Mega Man was widely hailed to be in Brawl. Didn't happen. Even in Capcom's own MvC3; Didn't happen. <br /><br />So, when I compare Legends 3 to OoT, it's like this: OoT, gamers have played it 1,000 times over. That's fine and dandy, it deserves it's merits, but when that's done, what next? It takes some "fanboyism" to retain that interest, am I right? Well, Legends 3 should be there as it's something new and it's been clamored for since over a decade's time and it's a similar style of game. Since the platform lacks more games like that, Legends 3 has the potential be a good seller. It in itself could play off the success of it's similar competitors. <br /><br />Like I said before, you don't have to believe me, and you don't. From what I saw, it had a lot going for it. With the whole saga of Legends 3 being how it's been, I do believe it'd have respectable sales. I mean, geez, when they see tons of fans and gamers alike saying they'd pay for both the prototype version AND the retail version, what does that tell you? Hell, I'd pay $5+ for the prototype. Worst case scenario, they'd make their production costs back and at the same time they'd please a whole lot of people. So due to money, they'd deem it a waste of time regardless of any love from fans.<br /><br />So yeah, be all middle-ground and apathetic about it all because ya know something? I'm going to retain my "fanboyism" to the utmost degree and I'm going to excercise my right as a fan to be disheartened that a company I hold in high regard seems to be doing nothing aside from "top men" discussing how to resuscitate a franchise they let drown in the midst of it's 25th anniversary and earlier. I'll retain my tact but I'll be stern. Rest assured, I'm not blind, I'm just not going to be teased and toyed with.

And you can't guarantee the number Capcom actually expects from the game should it sell. Because guess what. Revelations sold well enough for Capcom to be interested in a sequel, and Street Fighter sold almost one million units. Can you guarantee those numbers with only 100 000? I think not.<br /><br />When gamers hear MEGAMAN, excitement isn't really there now.<br /><br />When you hear the name CAPCOM, alot of bad things come to mind, especially lately. When you hear MEGAMAN, you think milking and as many now describe it, a whining fanbase.<br /><br />When you hear the words NINTENDO and ZELDA, almost every gamer gets fired up. Project Sora especially because it contains Smash Bros staff! It's like Retro Studios! Every fan of Nintendo wants to see them try different franchises after they did Metroid and Donkey Kong! Retro and Project Sora have fans in the Nintendo fanbase. Anything they sell will do well, especially after Smash Bros 4 for Project Sora.<br /><br />And are you seriously using Ocarina of Time 3D as an arguing point? That is the most FOOLISH point you could have made.<br /><br />Ocarina of Time is considered the greatest game of all time, and the best of the N64. When people heard they could get it on a portable system, with a much needed graphics revamp, as well as Master Quest? NO SHIT IT WAS GONNA SELL.<br /><br />And why are you not listening. PERSPECTIVE. We keep telling you but you refuse to listen. <br /><br />Let's say Prototype DOES get released for $2, and it DOES sell 100 000 copies. Capcom isn't going to make $200 000 dollars because Capcom has to give Nintendo a share. Meaning Capcom isn't making as much money as you claim they would. And did you not listen? Ono said Capcom won't bring back Darkstalkers, even though Fighting games have been revived, without a guaranteed FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND SIGNATURE PETITION. WHAT THE HELL MAKES YOU THINK A FIFTH OF THAT WILL WORK. THIS GAME IS NOT LIKE THE OTHER RECENT ONES. IT ISN'T REUSING ASSETS LIKE ZX AND SF, IT ISN'T IN SPRITES, THE SYSTEM POWER IS ALMOST ON LEVEL WITH THE WII.

What I meant by "it's a Mega Man...@Dhylec<br /><br />What I meant by "it's a Mega Man game all the same" is because if they can release MM9 and MM10 and play it safe, then they can just as well try to take some risks with other parts of the franchise. Point is, they aren't making any sort of move at all and that's whats irking me and countless other fans. Again, if Kid Icarus can be brought back, so can Legends. Sure, Icarus has more advertising but uh, you know, every gamer knows about Legends 3 by now. The whole event up until now has been inadvertent advertising on many websites and forums. No one should contest that fact, even though it's an infamous way to advertise.<br /><br />It isn't just 100,000 people, that number is just a proof of the potential. Think about the many other people that are looking for new gameplay experiences on their 3DS. Like I said, just the general gamers will probably purchase it also. It'll sell way more than 100,000 copies I'm sure. Capcom just lost it's spine somewhere in the money pits.<br /><br />Your know-how in the industry is just your own perception. The way I see it, is that it's common sense that if the 3DS library is suffering from a lack of a certain sort of game, a bigger, longer, more adventurous bang for one's buck, something new that isn't a remake, then it would be wise for a company to capitalize on that lack in which to gain success. What is so wrong with that? Again, if Kid Icarus and OoT 3D can succeed, so can Legends 3. AGAIN, it is based on Capcom's neglect to put any effort towards making Legends 3 a success, making money and pleasing the fans.<br /><br />Just because I was 8 years old, doesn't mean I wasn't keeping up with Mega Man. I've had my eye on the blue bomber since I was 3. I learned of this new game, I bought this new game and I enjoyed this new game (a great deal). I became a Legends fan. While I was still a true fan of the franchise as a whole, I wanted more Legends. Legends 2 was one of, if not the only game I ever pre-ordered. If Legends did so poorly, then why did Legends become a greatest hits title and get ported to the N64? I think it was for the PC too. <br /><br />Things just don't add up. So again, the state of the franchise is right where Capcom has left it, gathering dust that Dust Man cant even clean. If Lost Planet can sell well and still be poorly/average received then it obviously is all about the money. Only game I really have high hopes for in which Capcom may redeem themselves is RE6. So far it looks fantastic...but this year is about Mega Man too. It's his 25th. Something should be done, that's all I'm saying. Doesn't even have to be Legends 3.MegaMachttp://megamanx9.com/forum/index.php?/user/4-mac/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-49420043223155970222012-05-08T18:14:58.489-05:002012-05-08T18:14:58.489-05:00heartless bastards... why dont you tell us why it ...heartless bastards... why dont you tell us why it REALLY got cancelled...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-77339904923549515812012-05-08T14:29:10.403-05:002012-05-08T14:29:10.403-05:00You know, I really don't understand the ways o...You know, I really don't understand the ways of this modern gaming society. It's far too different than the society I grew up with. Why is there a division amongst Capcom people when Mega Man is concerned but get something like Mass Effect 3, fuck it up and everyone's like "GOD DAMN IT, GIVE US A BETTER ENDING BIOWARE!" and literally every Mass Effect fan, didn't matter if you had PS3 or 360, banded together and got what they wanted but here with Mega Man, it's just another drama revolving around the poor little guy.<br /><br />My honest thoughts is that Capcom should just shut down already. They took something like MvC3, fuck around with it as they pleased and put it on GameStop, Wal-Mart, Best Buy etc. shelves everywhere. 10 years of waiting and we get crap, the same could be said for MML3, except instead of getting crap we get disappointment, don't even get me started with SFxT. I wouldn't be surprised if in the near future, Capcom fucks up Devil May Cry or something because all in all Capcom should just shut down already.<br /><br />A lot of people, myself included, are starting to lose faith in them.<br /><br />but hey, at least we still have Nintendo & SEGA, right?TheLastGameBoyhttp://www.twitter.com/TheLastGameBoynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-54278317205814123732012-05-07T16:19:26.159-05:002012-05-07T16:19:26.159-05:00...Wait, is Battle Network the only series that ac......Wait, is Battle Network the only series that actually sold well in the MM franchise?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-84526944841898636812012-05-07T12:04:20.645-05:002012-05-07T12:04:20.645-05:00"Those games didn't sell well because the..."Those games didn't sell well because they weren't games that were for everyone. They were just offspring of Zero and Battle Network and kinda required an acquired taste."<br /><br />Ok, so now you're backpedaling from what you said before: "It's a Mega Man game all the same. In the realm of reality, there is little to no risk releasing Legends 3." And you're referring to the Kid Icarus comparison in the wrong context now.<br /><br /><br />"You see, the Legends series is a series that is highly underrated and many people know this."<br /><br />No, sorry. You were 8 years old when MML1 was released, so take it from someone older who was keeping up with MM at that time - Legends was not well recieved by fans or rating outlets of that time, and it did not sell well. Capcom put it aside for a reason, and bringing it back is a huge risk. As much attention as it seems to be getting now, it's still a niche in the MM brand. Even the 100,000 effort can't be described as "many people" by industry standards. It probably seems like alot to you, and I'm not saying it's insignificant, but it's not large. <br /><br />Lack of 3DS games is a really bad thing for a high-risk title, not a good thing. So when you say a "lack of such games on the 3DS" as a good thing, that tells me that your understanding of the way this industry works is poor. MM Legends 3 cancellation can absolutely be attributed in part - not entirely but in part - to the 3DS' poor initial performance. <br /><br />Pay more attention to the industry, try to understand more of its process and trends, and why the MM brand has its current image. You'll see things are the way they are now, for reasons other than what you or most other people here are saying.Dhylecnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-79797123553458347362012-05-07T11:19:38.219-05:002012-05-07T11:19:38.219-05:00I find the first three Battle Network games to be ...I find the first three Battle Network games to be something new and fresh and not too much like Pokemon (until they tried the "versions" I guess lol). Has a battle system other RPGs have yet to duplicate. It's just they were getting a bit crazy with it and it died down. Thankfully they left it at BN6. I know what you mean though, Johnny. Star Force was a good example of a revision of Battle Network as ZX was to Zero, however ZX actually has some main canon relevance and that's why I find the series interesting. The gameplay isn't bad at all either. Hell, tell Inticreates to make ZX3 for the 3DS. You obviously have some storyline left to work with there. ;)MegaMachttp://megamanx9.com/forum/index.php?/user/4-mac/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-59335493777272744012012-05-07T07:57:22.466-05:002012-05-07T07:57:22.466-05:00@MegaMan: No you cannot compare Uprising and Legen...@MegaMan: No you cannot compare Uprising and Legends.<br /><br />If you can't compare the actual companies, then there's no point arguing about their games.<br /><br />Also, unlike Legends 3, Kid Icarus had ADVERTISING, a foreign concept to Capcom with Megaman, as well as some pretty cool anime on the nintendo video app.<br /><br />@JohnnyRidden: Nintendo fans don't like Other M and Sunshine because of a) the Voice acting, b) they were both story driven and in your face about it. <br /><br />It made Sunshine feel linear, unlike SM64, as well as giving annoying VAs, especially since Bowser's didn't fit AT ALL and Other M's plot was too in your face unlike Prime which had plot and lore, but let you discover it if you really wanted to. In addition, need I remind you Team Ninja butchered the character of Samus *glares*<br /><br />And the Zelda titles? Are you serious? Now you are pulling stuff out of your ass. Majora is constantly in the top 10 of fans because it's so different from the other 3D titles, so dark, and it's a brand new world. Skyward Sword the only complaints were people bitching about VA, to which I say refer to earlier in the post, as well as either length or the difficulty of the Demise fight.<br /><br />Also... I'm going to have to use the Metroid point against you.<br /><br />Other M was developed by an outside company. Raccoon City was developed by an outside company. See what happened? Revelations was a great game.<br /><br />Also you know trying to resume now would be bad right?<br /><br />You're aiming for what, a 2012/early 2013 window?<br /><br />You are dealing with Luigi's Mansion 2, Paper Mario and Fire Emblem, each with no set dates that could COMPLETLEY fuck that up. Oh and Monster Hunter 4 which is supposed to be this year. And don't kid yourself. I love Megaman, but with the state the brand is in, I can't guarantee I'll enjoy the title nor will there be DLC shenanigans now that Nintendo is introducing it on the 3DS. And whats that in the future? New Super Mario Bros 2, Smash Bros, and an original Zelda title with a possible Majora's Mask remake after? As well as the producer of Resident Evil hopes to make a sequel to Revelations for the 3DS? And the Nintendo fans will become focused on the new console known as the wii U later this year!? In other news... No. The odds are not in your favour for ever getting this game out nor with it being successful if your pushing for this year, and if the producer of Revelations gets his wish you can say goodbye to Legends 3 for a while again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-37752433345348252012012-05-07T02:22:24.702-05:002012-05-07T02:22:24.702-05:00Fine, Capcom.

Aside from the shitty humour the stories have stayed good and relevant.<br /><br />To the guy above, MegaMac, damned agreed, preach it brotha! Every time Capcom made a new Megaman spinoff they treated it like Street Fighter II, each really didn't feel like a new game, it was just a revision. Battle Network being the absolute worst example of that, as it was literally Pokemon with chips instead of 'mons for a majority of its run. The most hated games in Nintendo's franchises are the ones that tried something different, not the flagships. In Metroid it was Other M, in Zelda it was Majora and now Skyward, in Mario it was Mario Sunshine and Mario Galaxy 2. They never ever brutalised the flagship titles, nor have they done so once an experimental title has taken off. Mario Sports remain great. Smash Bros remains great. Mario Party remains great. There wasn't a steep decline in the same way Capcom's butchered not only Megaman but Darkstalkers, Resident Evil, and Devil May Cry as well. And Okami wasn't even given the CHANCE to be butchered, they put her down like Ol' Yeller. At this point they only seem to hold onto their IP copyrights solely to stick them into MvsC or Street Fighter as guest characters. They have literally become the EA of Japan.<br /><br />(The sad thing about that comparison is due to EA starting this slash&burn buyup business practice earlier, thanks to some of the studios under their umbrella I HAVE enjoyed more EA-licensed games than Capcom...since 2009. BEFORE they began the DLC and content-locking BS, I had already dropped them below EA. They have completely snowballed since then.)JohnnyRiddenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11899467802054509391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-45532082533968766712012-05-06T18:27:35.726-05:002012-05-06T18:27:35.726-05:00@Dhylec

And yes, I'm talking about Capcom of Japan not Capcom USA as I am well aware Japan is where most, if not all development begins.<br /><br />The Star Force and ZX example doesn't hold water. Those games didn't sell well because they weren't games that were for everyone. They were just offspring of Zero and Battle Network and kinda required an acquired taste. It didn't seem like anything new. ZX was more along the lines of Zero and X series, but still, its image didn't really catch on (I enjoyed them though). That and the games seemed inferior to their predecessors and the age group/difficulty shifted a bit. <br /><br />You see, the Legends series is a series that is highly underrated and many people know this. It's also a wider gameplay experience that more people can play and enjoy. Again, what with the awareness skyrocketing and the lack of such games on the 3DS, the sales would be just fine. You don't have to believe me, but we don't have any statistics either. Thank Capcom for that.<br /><br />I wont compare Nintendo with Capcom as there is simply no comparison. Even though both companies have their notable franchises, Nintendo just knows how to please fans every which way. They've also taken risks before, and they have the guts and intelligence to make them work out. If Kid Icarus Uprising worked out, Legends 3 could work out. <br /><br />The current state of the brand is the gutter that Capcom has left it in. The only way to drag it's carcass out of obscurity is to take some risks. MM9 and MM10 were safe, sure, but as I said, it's gotten old. Playing it safe never allows anything to evolve. This is something that Nintendo knows and I feel Capcom has a certain idea of what that means, because just look at RE4 and what that game spawned. They need to focus on some other franchises instead of their "safe" ones. <br /><br />Mega Man got their name on the map for the most part and it's way overdue they put him back on that map.MegaMachttp://megamanx9.com/forum/index.php?/user/4-mac/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-48822725300359179052012-05-06T17:02:44.565-05:002012-05-06T17:02:44.565-05:00>Fans expecting 100,000 strong to revive Legend...>Fans expecting 100,000 strong to revive Legends 3 (Prototype)<br />>Fans expecting CoAmerica to somehow override CoJapan in cancellation decision<br />>Fans expecting Legends 3 for 25th anniversary<br /><br />allofmynope.aviAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-61723857471442352342012-05-06T16:43:31.574-05:002012-05-06T16:43:31.574-05:00A wise man also once said:

Zelda, Mario, Kirby are have yet to put out very bad games and don't get milked as hard as Megaman. Metroid took a hit with Other M, but I can see it slowly bouncing back. It gets it's fanservice right in it's crossover games.<br /><br />Capcom and Megaman... Not so much.<br /><br />You have a torn apart fanbase, a DLC milking company who is relying on very few franchises right now to get money. Do you think, even if they put out a Megaman game, we can be sure of no cheap DLC tricks, or that anyone will be sure? We saw what happened in Megaman 10! Bass was in the god damn game from the start!<br /><br />In addition, Kid Icarus was running off the wave of Smash Bros. The menu designs, team behind it, and character designs all show that clearly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-85241454324320871792012-05-06T11:28:51.973-05:002012-05-06T11:28:51.973-05:00The difference between Kid Icarus and Legends 3 ho...The difference between Kid Icarus and Legends 3 however is that Kid Icarus was handled by a company who isn't quite as stubborn as Capcom is.Dr. Jerknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-37788969978819137192012-05-06T11:05:16.555-05:002012-05-06T11:05:16.555-05:00MegaMac:
"In the realm of reality, there is ...MegaMac: <br />"In the realm of reality, there is little to no risk releasing Legends 3."<br /><br />Sorry man, but you're wrong. It really is pretty much like Rockman is saying. Your comparison with Kid Icarus is flawed. If all it took to sell MM was the name on the cover, Starforce and ZX would have sold amazingly. More importantly, the Legends series itself would have too. Your oversimplification of what it takes for Capcom to put out a successful MM game shows that you don't understand the current state of the brand, or the risk in releasing a Legends game. Unless there was a 3rd MM game in the works at the same time as Universe and Legends 3 (so more than 1 year ago), there won't be a new game this year either.<br /><br />Anyway, people aren't taking this news very sensibly. There's alot to say, but I'll only highlight that even if Capcom's acknowledgement of 100,000 seems insignificant (and anyone with reasonable expectations would know that's as much as you can hope for), it really is a good thing. It's a real, measurable show of interest. It's a message that genuinely has the opportunity to cause change. That's alot more than most other fanbases can hope for.Dhylecnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-35619537055554804642012-05-06T04:30:54.480-05:002012-05-06T04:30:54.480-05:00@Rockman: Oh, sure, admit defeat like a worthless...@Rockman: Oh, sure, admit defeat like a worthless little worm. I'm sure that's totally gonna change the situation, what, sitting there and rotting like that.<br /><br />Or, you can do what I'm doing. I want to see this series exist beyond boring X and Zero. I'm freaking SICK of those two. IT'S TIME TO EVOLVE. And to do that, what do we have to do? Wrap up the freaking epilogue to their story, called "ZX". I'm MAKING ZX3, AND FINISHING IT WITH 4. In a way to pretty much move us past those two. What are you doing, other than sitting there, crying because mommy took away your toys?<br /><br />Oh, grow up. Blame Capcom because you don't have the courage or willpower to take it into your own hands. Why don't you try doing something positive with all that negative energy. You know... Like me.<br /><br />Sure, it may take a while... but while you lot cry because you lost the short game, I'm waging the long war.<br /><br />Honestly, you younglings and your worthlessness... I swear, each and every one of you... when you can't get what you want, you just cry about it and start with the petty name calling.<br /><br /><br />Oh, grow up. I thought you were raised better than that. You want something? YOU TAKE IT. YOU WORK FOR IT. GET OFF YOUR BUTT AND DO SOMETHING.Rolenoreply@blogger.com
