Why is the DASH/Legends series the worst-selling Rockman/Megaman series?
Is it because it actually has a PLOT? (a Capcom rarity nowdays.) Why does no one seem to like it anymore? ;_;

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 would like it if it was at least PLAYABLE. I despite the gameplay in that game.

If you asked me, Legends is just a remixed clone version of Ghost in the Shell. Capcom didn\'t stick to their roots with this series (even though I did like The Misadventures of Tron Bonne. Something about those Lego-people...):miam:

I will admit, I did enjoy the first Legends game, even if I found the battle with Juno extremely difficult. It took too long to find enough zenny to get a strong armor and weapons to beat that psycho!

As for playing Legends 2 and MoTB, well, I have to get my will of playing video games back first.

C'mon people... feel the love!

Legends 2 almost doesn\'t count - it seems no one likes that game anyway.

I dislike people who uses \"no one\", \"never\" or any negative words about something that must have a fan group somewhere... ;^^

I like the Legends series. All three games were great I thought, but people must take under consideration that I like 3D more than 2D games.

Don\'t misquote her. She said she wanted to get her \'videogame spirit\' back before playing that game. ^^

See, what I played of Legends 2 I didn\'t enjoy much. I only rented it once and layed the very beginning. Maybe if I played the whole thing I would enjoy it more. Anyway, from what people say, I think I\'ll buy it once it comes out for PC...

I\'ve been a digger since I joined here months ago...

And I\'m POSITIVE Legends 2 IS NOT out for PC in the U.S. In the X5 PC manual it said it was \'coming soon\', but on MM Outpost it said it was JUST released in Japan and was announced in the US without a release date.

IMHO, the Dash series is okay. It\'s just that sometimes, the control scheme can be a bit fiddly at times, often at unwelcome situations. My reflexes are a bit dull for most action games, that\'s why I stick mostly to RPGs... the turn-based ones.

I don\'t hate this series..but I don\'t really like it much either. Legends 2 was ruined with those digger licenses you have to get in order to get into more places, in my opinion. Rushing through a place, to get a good time..bleh, I don\'t like that sort of thing.

But eh, Trigger was cuter in Legends 2...so I\'m glad I bought the game.

I didn\'t care much for those license tests either... They were a murder on the fingers, especially the Rank S test. but I still got it before I finished the game... I just didn\'t see how the Reaverbots got harder as your rank went up... They just take a bit longer to kill, that\'s all...(at least, IMHO):cool:

The controls are weird but i got used to them after a while. Du think theres going to be a MML3? The ledgends series haven\'t been popular but i liked the game alot and i think they should make a MML3.

No, Capcom hates this series because it has a plot.

And how hard is it really to type \"Do You\"?

I\'m obsessed with Legends...........It\'s one of my favourite games from the MM series. I have yet to play MML 2, and I want to so badly! maybe I could rent it and burn it.........I have a mod chip, that\'s how I got MML 1.

Reality swirled in a wholly blue manner, revealing absolutely nothing of merit. Things flashed madly in and out of existence like some entirely other sort of phenomena. On a whim, Kurt Vonnegut imploded, taking a sizeable hunk of Massachusetts with him. However, seeing as Massachusetts wasn't entirely sure it existed, the chunk wasn't all that big.
