In my opinion I think something like a first person shooter would have been something that would have been better then the 3D games. I\'ve never played them but I just think that would be cool. Anyone else think so?

Ive considered for a long time doing X1 as a UT mod, but never really got serious about it. If they did go ahead with something like that, it would probably suffer what happened to Metroid Prime, being something completely different, but cool in its own right.

Well, Legends was already somewhat a third person shooter..and it\'s a great series.

So perhaps Megaman would do well as a first person shooter too.

I know they tried with the Original Series (Super Adventure Rockman), but it didn\'t seem like it worked out that well.

Personally, my first reaction when I heard \"MegaMan should be in first-person shooter style\" was something along the lines of...

\"F*** NO!!!!! WTF!!?!?!? NO NO NO NO NO!!!!\"

Yeah, that\'s probably over-reacting, but still. MegaMan is known as one of the best side-scrolling action platformers ever created by any company ANYWHERE. And changing it to a first-person shooter seems, I dunno... blasphemous...

SuperAdventure Rockman is far from feeling like a FPS. It\'s not because some part of a game are done in the first person style that they look or play like a FPS!

Like I have said before with the 3D Metroid games, they were something completely new and different, yet cool in their own right. If there were a Rockman FPS, it would not feel like a Rockman game at all, but would still be neat and innovative.

Personally, I think they should have kept the Side-Scrolling. It kinda defined MegaMan for over ten years, so why change it now?

Lenn Tao, what was the point of quoting someone and not making a comment of your own? Anyway, along the lines of FPS for Megaman, I say they should go for it, as long as it doesn\'t mean they\'ll stop the side scrollers. As for the X series... I\'m glad after the horrid flop of X7 they went back to a relative side-scroller for X8. It was a much better game than seven.

... To be honest, I don\'t have a Gamecube, so I have no idea what yer talkin\' about. :P

But, yeah. I have played Super Metroid, and NES Metroid. And a friend of mine tells me Metroid Prime is pretty darn good. But, yeah... That\'s metroid. This is MegaMan.

... Just call me old-fashioned, eh?
