Trying To Fit In Megaman ZX Up To Megaman Legends?

Image
I was thinking about watching the Reploid Revo series on Youtube. The video above does tell the lore that I never played. Granted, I NEVER played Megaman Zero series or the Megaman ZX series so all I could do is to think. So, what could've happened during the time from the post-X series? Megaman X did become a Cyber Elf. It's not even stated what or how the Classic Megaman cast actually passed away. Though, statistics may confirm that Megaman X isn't Classic Megaman unless Capcom finally decided to retcon it in Megaman X5 . I think the Megaman X series really is pretty blur over what happened between the hundred years. Zero is confirmed as Dr. Wily's final creation. It's interesting to see how Reploids and humans have begun to merge in Megaman Zero and later Megaman ZX . In Megaman Legends , there is the term called Carbons. The Carbons are artificially created organic humans who can modify themselves to bizarre lengths - something that regular humans are incapable ...

The Resident Evil Canon Films And Mini-Series

Image
I may no longer be updated with the Resident Evil  franchise but I can't deny I decided to watch RE: Infinite Darkness on Netflix. Before that, I remembered watching RE: Degeneration which featured Leon and Claire. The CGI movies were followed by RE: Damnation and RE: Vendetta  which came out in 2012 and 2017 after the 2008 movie. What makes them different is that all these are canon to the game universe - unlike the RE films which starred Milla Jovovich as the non-canon Alice. I saw the first two RE films though like most movies based on video games - I tend to say they suck. Though Alice is far more worthy of a sequel than Cole Young ever is in Mortal Kombat (2011) movie - it's really an insult IMHO to the 10th anniversary of the franchise's reincarnation! Watching these films feel awkward especially since the last game I played was Code Veronica for the PS2. My first RE game was RE3: Nemesis . Though, thankfully, it was spelled out in certain detail that made watching th...

Megaman X6: Isoc's Possible Real Identity Is...

Image
I don't deny that I'm a fan of Megaman X6 and I'm more than ready to defend it from unfair criticism . However, I think one of the weaker parts of the game is the introduction of Isoc. Isoc is assumed by some fans of the Megaman series to be a robotic avatar of Dr. Wily - just like Serges was in Megaman X2 . However, I do still feel that neither Serges nor Isoc is officially Dr. Wily  since Dr. Wily never takes a position lower than that of the Big Bad. Serges ended up building Sigma a new body and repairing Zero. Keiji Inafune never confirmed either if Serges was really Dr. Wily. Fan theories can be there and probably be left just for fun. Isoc is also subjected to this speculation I found about the character himself. There are certain clues in the game about Isoc's identity. Depending on who you use can reveal SOMETHING about this guy. If you use Zero to defeat Hi-Max (which creates the downside that you can access the Gate stage early on while it's nearly impossi...
