Rockman Zero & ZX, low-res pixel style!

In honour of the upcoming Legacy Collection of Inti Creates’ Mega Man/Rockman Zero and ZX games, here’s the major characters from the series. I call it the Pentuple Hero Collection, because the “double” in the Japanese title seems a bit limiting. Anyway I love these games very dearly, and my previous attempt to draw the Zero principals has turned to ash in my eyes! So here’s a cleaner and fuller take on these excellent games (plus a few additions from the manga adaptations)!

Zero: Zero, Ciel, X, Harpuia, Leviathan, Fefnir, Phantom, Lito, Cerveau, Neige, Cial, Elpizo, Craft, Copy X, Dark Elf with Crea & Prea, Omega, Dr. Weil

ZX: Aile, Model ZX, Vent, Girouette, Prairie, Fleuve, Sho, Prometheus, Pandora, Serpent

ZX Advent: Ashe, Model A, Grey, Master Mikhail, Master Thomas, Master Albert, Aeolus, Thetis, Atlas, Siarnaq

[Review] Onimusha Blade Warriors (PS2)

I got this game because it features Zero (as he appears in the GBA Rockman Zero games). I love it for that, but otherwise it’s an OK entry in the “platform fighter” subgenre.

I love this game too much to say much about it. I first played it back when my friend brought a copy back from a trip to Japan, and together we tried to master its story and mechanics. I chose it for game club this month, and feel personally accomplished to have completed it fully now.

Megaman/Rockman Zero, low-detail pixel style!

My favourite action platformers of all time, sadly underappreciated. Even Megaman fans overlook them, which is a shame. But everything about them is so damn good. Except maybe the localisation and proofreading. Note: X’s appearance is based on this image, which is apparently now under doubt as to its origin. I always thought it was concept art but now its source is being questioned. Oh well, there’s tons of fanart and even cosplay based on it, and it’s the most complete version of X in his cyber form that we have.

Zero, Ciel, X, Harpuia, Fefnir, Leviathan, Phantom
