Mega Man ZX Advent

[BeeZee]

So I got this last week and I just beat it the first time.

It's pretty spiffy. You can actually turn into bosses instead of just getting their weapons, and while the RPG-ish elements from the first ZX are still here, they didn't feel as annoying this time around. The map is a lot better, and the level designs feel a little more varied. I still think the series is wasting a lot of potential in its half-hearted execution of the Metroidvania formula, but all in all, this game is a step in the right direction.

Did anyone else play this? Valk? Loki?

I'm overwhelmed with the mass collection of Mega Man games.

Re: Mega Man ZX Advent

I never played the first ZX and my plate is too full to pick up another game right now. Sorry, BZ.

Re: Mega Man ZX Advent

Yeah man, poor Zack & Wiki are just sitting there. Alongside Super Mario Galaxy and a bunch of other games I don't have time for. And isn't Revenant Wings coming out soon?

edit: But I'll keep it in mind.

BZ, did you have a hard time finding this game? I sure as hell did. Gamestops werent even putting it out on the shelf. after going to three stores and not finding it, I finally explained to an employee that I knew the game was out, that it had shipped two days ago, and I knew that they had it. They said no, I told them to look anyways. and guess what? yep, they had a single copy in the drawer behind the counter. Victory was mine.

and I have barely even played it since then. I just have too many games to catch up on right now. I really liked what I played (delivered the "package" after fixing the train), but the voice acting got on my nerves. Its like they have one female voice actor, and one male voice actor doing all the roles. everyone sounds exactly the same.

Grey looks retarded with his tube scarf too, so I have not played with him yet.

I was overjoyed to hear that Axl in Biometal form sounds extremely feminine. that was great.

Axl got biomettalized? Jeeze. :/

Re: Mega Man ZX Advent

I didn't have any trouble finding it. I went to a local Gamestop and they had a bunch.

I agree that the voice acting is pretty bad. I was muting the volume during the cutscenes just so people nearby wouldn't hear it.

Otherwise, though, I really enjoyed the game. I'm gonna play through it with Grey as soon as I have time. I was never compelled to replay the first ZX, but this is definitely a step up.

Axl got biomettalized? Jeeze. :/

You'd like the villain and his cohorts. It's a pretty great reference to the older games.

Re: Mega Man ZX Advent

the first ZX was not a good experience, so I think I'll be passing. sorry, Megaman.

This might be worth a rental, then. It fixes most of what bothered me about the first one.

The video game market is being flooded with too many games

Re: Mega Man ZX Advent

Yeah it's a little insane. I forgot about this and, like, 7000 other games.
