Yeah, it's a really great moment. That manga is way better than it has any right to be. That said, I get the impression we are very quickly heading towards the conclusion. The romance subplot has been resolved and Peter's been "found", so it seems like all that could really be left is the climax and resolution. It's probably for the best, as I don't think this is a premise that should be dragged out and this seems like a natural place for the climax and final act to begin. Of course, this is still a Marvel story, so who knows what wacky bullshit might happen!

comparing x to zero isn't fair cause x only has two of the best mega man games ever made and zero has three of the best action games ever made

i like that x8 obviously took a couple notes from zero cause the dash physics are way closer to zero than to x and zero himself has a handful of new weapons

Zero's extra weapons in X8 are a neat idea, particularly the one that gives him Street Fighter moves, but they all pale next to the glaive and post game weapon.

Oh hey, currently doing the same thing but with the added compulsion to get all the trophies in the PS4 releases because for some reason platinum trophies are too enticing to pass up. Just started X8 and admittedly took longer to get there because for the bad end run of X5 I decided to do a dumb thing and armorless buster duel every boss in the game.

Also hella excited for the Zero/ZX collection because while I do enjoy the Zero games the ZX's clicked with me on a whole different level and are right next to X1 and X2 in terms of favorite platformers.

EDIT: Realest question actually is where the HD port of Command Mission is though.

The early zero games were pretty rough, like how the first one was balanced around using a lot of cyber elves but then the game lowered your rank and called you a murderer if you used them, but I can forgive a lot when the movement and slashing feel as good as they do.

I remember when Command Mission came out it wasn't received particularly well but these days I hear a lot of good things about it. Is it worth checking out as someone who likes turn-based RPGs but gets easily annoyed if they're too slow or simple?

something that might pique your interest, if it ever comes out. there's a dude in the Philippines who has been working on a from-scratch metroidvania megaman x game in the X1/X2/X3 snes style for the last decade+. It's sonic mania-ish in the way that it emulates the style of the original but looks way better and plays largely the same, just has more mechanics and different boss difficulty levels, he even "emulates" the slowdown effect from too much poo poo onscreen at times
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DpO0baCAsUU&hd=1&t=411s
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOWuRZkQbJI&hd=1

he's even remaking some of the old mavericks and downgrading them from 32-bit to 16-bit(where applicable) and giving them new moves and animations too, like giving 16-bit magma dragoon a tatsumaki senpukyaku and akuma's raging demon as a finisher when you're at low health
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYXdjPcrz08&hd=1&t=93s

we will never actually get it because capcom will probably kill it before he releases it since we live in an unjust world, but ideally they would see how much money they could make from buying a basically complete product and just sell the finished product, if they could somehow work it out. or maybe he just gets to release it unchallenged, if we're lucky

did you ever like breath of fire? because there's some shared developers on that.

Command Mission is not a super deep game and the story is exactly what you'd expect from a Mega Man X RPG, but the combat is snappy and has some neat ideas, character designs and music are good, and the game looks really good emulated. Cinnamon also completely breaks the game.

every breath of fire game is cool in its own way.

even the first, mostly generic rpg even for it's time, has cool poo poo like stopping the evil dragon people from using their earthquake machine, or sacrificing golems in volcanos to make land bridges, or a boss that starts as a pixelated vagina dick monster that you beat in a dream
