!SPOILER ALERT!

Spoiler (click to toggle)
Hub. HUB. I shuddered when I first heard that name. The character the fricking Japanese version of the game is named after has a stupid name like Hub. What kind of name is that. HUB. H-U-B. Hub. They couldn\'tve named Rockman Modem or something? What about just Rock? Netto was OK, but Hub... I mean, please. Watch Ms. Hikari have a daughter named TCP/IP. Then they will have another son named Universal Serial Bus. Did they really HAVE to name everything after something on a computer? That brings me to another point. The American names. *shudder* MADD. Mado is better than Madd. This one, though, really creeps me out: COUNT ZAP. COUNT ZAP. What\'s wrong with Eleci? Count Zap-o\'s sounds like a cereal, dammit! I did however like most of the other American names.

[/rant]
The EXE series is simply wonderful, aside from some of the names.

On a side note, Hikari means Light in Japanese.

And that\'s my rant, all of which is in that black spoiler box that I suggest you do not read if you haven\'t beaten the game because it gives away pretty much the most important thing in the game.

Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes; that way, you will be a mile away when you criticize him, and you will have his shoes.

I know that. I\'m just saying that Hub is a crappy name. They could\'ve named both of them something different.

Have you beaten Battle Network 1? If you haven\'t, I advise you NOT to look in this thread, as it says in the first post in this thread. ^_^

It isn\'t much different. But I agree with Toki. HUB is a dumb name...very much....I absolutely hate the name Count Zap, since it sound like something you get when you stick Dracula into a light socket....


So I'm not going to have anything spectacular in my signature.

I wonder if they got that name as an idea when they actually did place count zap accidently into a light socket. :P

I agree... some of the names need to stay in jap. but some of the american names are okay.
