I remember tearing th'bloody hell out of some Megaman X.

That's the best description of Capcom I've ever heard. There's a certain masochism in playing any of their games, and it's no accident - they are sadistic bastards, and have been since at least the first Megaman. My flatmate bought Umbrella Chronicles, and we can't get more than a few levels in because they have jiggle-or-die quick time events.

Quick time events. In a shooter. Instant death if you can't jiggle the nunchuck or pound the A button in a heartbeat. Naturally, this is about a minute past the nearest checkpoint, so you get to see the same damn monkeys, bugs, and zombies a dozen times in the hour between reaching that awful stage and giving up in frustration.

Fuck you, Capcom. Games shouldn't hurt.

I mostly refer to their general policies on EVERYTHING, but I'll give that their designs are also occassionally criminal.

I loled.

Mega Man XX90: Xtreme Redundance

No justice.

My sister and I used to absolutely love that old Chip 'n' Dale game.

You need to check out the SNK Vs. Capcom games on the Neo Geo Pocket Color.

They are DELICIOUS.

I did play it, but only for about an hour or two. It wasn't mine.

If you see me at a con, ask. I'll lend it to you for the duration. Or you can trade for it, and the system.

I wish they'd FINISH their platform Megaman series' too. v_v;

I wish they'd make another Marvel vs Capcom game since the first two kicked Ass. I loved playing as Ryu, Megaman, Wolverine and Spiderman!! .

yea I might be hated for saying this, but I don't think continuity is important. Megaman and Megaman X might as well be their own seperate stories. Really, why would it matter one way or another as long as the games are awesome... problem is, they aren't.

and ezalias is right, capcom games are consistently frustrating/unfair. For crissakes they are the company that invented save ribbons.

boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew!
