MMZX 3? What do you think?

[lakobie]

Ill say it again what models (if they are using biometals) are Prometheus and Pandora using?

Im not avid on Mega Man pre Zero, but to me Prometheus's armor and weapon reminds me a bit o' skull man

what do you guys think?

[VileMKII]

Promo had a skeleton helmet, thats a fact, but I think that there just new characters that we have never seen before. After all if this seires was only with old characters then that would be no fun.

[Chaos Tank]

Its never actually stated I don't think but its kind of obvious that Pro is a combination of Fefnir and Phantom, and Pan has Harpuia and Leviathan.

As for a 3rd game, I've never played ZX or ZXA so I don't know what this hidden cliffhanger ending you speak of is about. But I would guess this series would go more than two games, that'd be their shortest megaman series easily.

[VileMKII]

Ya, even legends had three games, and I can't find the third!

[Gilgamesh]

Legends didn't have three games, only two.

As for Pro and Pan, they're actually reploids who were created from fragments of Model W. Even though they're referred to as "Megamen" it even states that they're "The reploid siblings".

[VileMKII]

Grays a replaroid as well as Giro. And legends had three, the Miss adventures of tron Bonne was the third, it was out before MML2 though.

[lakobie]

the ZX series isn't really clear on reploid vs human, as humans now have cybernetics and reploids have lifespans (basically no one is reploid or human specifically though you can refer to them as diffrent there are only minor diffrences) basically making everyone "humanoids"

The more i think of it, Dragonblade is right they may just be reploids refered to as "megamen" (and closer to reploids from previous series, in the ZX 90% of all reploids have abilities not far off from humans)

[VileMKII]

Well I found out that the characters with eh red triangle on there head seem to be reploids. My bases on this is

1: Siranaq had a voice error that no human could have
2: Giro turned into a cyber elf
3: Gray was a reploid and had a triangle
4: All four of the sage trinaty had them and they were reploids.

[lakobie]

The line is still pretty thin

If you rember, when Grey confronts Thetis (lol name still sounds funny) on the highway he says "humans like yourself" yet i swear is see a red triangle on his forhead

Might just be translation but we could really keep going back and forth on this for a while, lets just call em all humanoids.

Now what will the next added (if there is one) biometal have a basis of? (rember A while not standing for axl, shared some similarites)

Some? How about all but the hover power. I would think that the next one will be about Promo and Pan or the other four awesome dudes.

[Gilgamesh]

Really, I doubt that ZX3 will have Prometheus and Pandora as the main characters. Same for Atlas, Thetis, Siarnaq, and Aeolus. There's a possibility though.

Spoilers below. <_<

As for the Model A issue. Albert never specifically said it wasn't based off of Axl. Albert called him Model Albert due to the fact that Model A contained all the ciphers and data and such.

@ Maniacal Reploid: Fat chance. Capcom is pretty much the Fox network of game companies. They let a series crunch out one or two titles on it's own, then they step in and make so called "improvements" so that every other title is hated by the true fans and treated like the next msia by the sheep who would by a jar of mustard and treat it like the holy grail if George Lucas glanced at it. The Battle Network series, the marketing wh0re of Capcom's Rockman divison, is proof of that.

@ Everyone else: Pandora and Prometheus both died and their bodies "vanished" jst like those two hunters from Grey's opening cutscene. They're pretty much gone for good, live with it.

And Peytral, Albert called model A model Albert because it was meant to be a back-up mind for his back-up body. The fact that model A is so much like Axl is just yet another way for Capcom to get the fans to theroise like crap, creating massive buzz and garunteeing high sales figures of the game. In other words, when Capcom was releasing information on model A, they were thinking "Dance, puppets, dance! Mwahahahaaaa!!".
That's why Capcom leaves so many plotholes. That's why the Megaman series is doing so well. They give fans inspiration for theories and a way to share them, creating buzz.


Personally, I think that in the third RMZX game, model Z will have a new biomatch. Perhaps said biomatch would be the protaganist, and we'd finally be able to use model Z solo.

@mortia its true Pro and Pan may be dead, but your watching a diffrent scene from what i am. Their bodies dont dissapear, they stay there and the area they were in may not have collapsed fully (you never vist it again)
its a 50-50 that they survied, as they were only unconcious after getting all that hate and rage sucked out of them (its doubtful that killed em, proly just a tempo shock cause the same thing happend to vent/alie)

Vent/Aile's case and Prometheus/Pandora's cases are different. Vent/Aile only had one purple emotio-blob sucked out of them and had just been on the delivering end of the beating. Pormetheus and Pandora had dozens of emotio-blobs sucked out and were on the recieving end. It's not a 50/50 chance, it's more of eighty to one odds. In my copy of the game, their corpses dissapeared after their DNA data was absorbed by Albert .
And ontop of all that, Prometheus and Pandora have lifespans that continually need to be refreshed by Albert. With Albert gone, the odds go from 80-1 to 1000-1.

I highly doubt that Prometheus and Pandora will be back for the third ZX. And even if they do (which I say they won't), the odds are even slimmer that they will be on the side of the good guys, and slimmest that they'll be player characters.
If Capcom does bring them back, make them good guys AND the player characters, then 1) They'll need more plotholes then the X series and 2) Have to greatly reduce the capabilites of them.

Well the Biomatchs themselfs might have died but the biometals should have lived so thats where you could play as them.
