I think Legends-haters would only be a problem in mixed company. If the hate Legends, they probably wouldn't register here. Even if they did just to troll us, well that's what attentive admins with banhammers are for.

Even if they did just to troll us, well that's what attentive admins with banhammers are for. That's pretty much it in a nutshell. I'm honestly more concerned about an influx of people who can't type to save their lives than an influx of Legends-bashers. Telling one person proper nouns get capital letters and sentences end in punctuation is easy. Telling a hundred? Not so much. :15: Expect a major grammar crackdown on my part if we see a sequel. I'm actually curious as to who's still bashing Legends and why, because bashing a series that hasn't had an update in this long is puzzling. Are they jealous that we get all the cameos? I mean, I've found the odd "What's so great about Legends" thread in the MegaMan X9 forums, but nothing terribly critical. |

Well yea that's probably it. I often spend my time wondering around the mvc3 forums and most of the Legends bashers are X fans that want X to appear in MVC3 but I will agree with the fact that probably the only true bashers of the Legends series are X fans.

Although I think the original proprietor of Zany Video Game Quotes put it best when he describes Legends as "the game series loved by everyone whose heart is not a BLACKENED LUMP OF COAL." |

Although I think the original proprietor of Zany Video Game Quotes put it best when he describes Legends as "the game series loved by everyone whose heart is not a BLACKENED LUMP OF COAL." What an oddly fitting analogy. I imagine when Legends first came out, a lot of people decried it for being totally different from the Classic and X series: to those fans, Legends was 'just not Megaman.' I find it ironic that as the years passed, the X series fell to such disarray, while the Legends game maintained consistent quality. I guess the lump of coal analogy goes for those who weren't willing to give the 'change' a chance- and look what those X fanboys had to look forward to... |

Well, technically the Legends series maintained consistent quality because it literally hasn't been touched stateside since 2000, not counting the cameos.

I was at my aunt's house using my cousin's Netbook. Since I didn't have this message board bookmarked there I started to type "megaman legends station forum" into google. It predicted that I might be typing out "megaman legends 3". So I just decided to go with that to see what would come up, but I didn't notice it was on google.cl, which is the Chile version of google. I saw this random article(in Spanish) that was claiming MML3 was official. They didn't know anything we didn't know(they cite the comic-con panel and the tease) so it's clear they were just jumping the gun and reporting speculation as fact. It made me feel kinda good about my insane fanboy dribble I've posted all over these threads. Sure, I'm pretty positive this is our year, but I also admit I can be wrong. I even have this bizarre conspiracy theory in my mind that Jeremy Parish knows for a fact that it's being made but he simply can't say so because he's either under embargo, or he has privileged information from a source and he doesn't want to burn. In my mind: it started when Seth Killian went on the 1up podcast 4guys1Up.(it was the episode 11/13/2009, don't remember what time during the podcast they get to Legends). I forget exactly how it breaks down but Killian goes on to talk about their general philosophy to listening to fans request and he mentions a few examples. He then mention's that maybe one day they can get around to making Megaman Legends 3. Jeremy Parish says something like "Oh please don't say it if you don't mean it." Joking as if we didn't need anymore false hope. Well... what if after the podcast good 'ol Seth said to Jeremy, "Let me tell you a little secret about the on going development of an oft requested series." Just imagine! Of course I'm not really presenting this as any further proof that the "oft requested" title is actually MML3. It's just a random brain fart I had but never communicated with anyone because I'd come off as a real idiot. And I think I'd help give the Legends community a bad rap as being psycho fanboys or something. Also off topic, I'm darfox8 on PSN. If you send me a friends invite I'd appreciate if you told me where you got my ID from. Just so I know who the heck you are. |

It made me feel kinda good about my insane fanboy dribble I've posted all over these threads. I appreciate the fanboy dribble, Darfox. It makes me feel both hopeful and sane at the same time, so keep it coming! Hey, it was nice of Jeremy to say that at all. If TGS yields nothing this year I'm sure Capcom is going to be hearing a LOT more "don't say it if you don't mean it" from the likes of us. People have already been dropping it every once in a while. I honestly don't think our rap's that bad. If anything our psychosis is justified. I mean, all Capcom's little teases broke Pitch back in the day, so who's to say it's going to stop there? But despite repeatedly falling for the old Inafune-cried-Legends-3 bit, most of us are still mature and polite. We've got a low troll count and upward of 70% of us can spell and form coherent sentences even on the Internet. Probably because most of us are either twenty-something or pushing it. If I could get a real, solid indicator of how the rest of the Mega Man Universe sees us, though, that'd be great. Even if it paints us as totally delusional and stuck-up. Omg the wait is killin me now!! I forbid you to die of anticipation on my message board. If you absolutely must drop dead from this, go do that on MLU or something.  |

Pitch, as in a member? I don't remember him/her.
For now, this period of speculation leaves me utterly neutral about the hopefulness towards MML3. I honestly have no expectation for what this oft-requested Mega Man title will be. Though I want it to be MML3, I will not in any way be surprised if it turns out not to be. However, I will be disappointed if that happens, and thrilled if the opposite comes to pass.
Excuse me as I resume mucking about.

Pitch, as in a member? I don't remember him/her. Pitch was Green's old username. That bit was really a joke, since Green showed up as Pitch either last Halloween or the Halloween before. His old posts were so uncharacteristically optimistic it's like reading someone else's.  Actually, if you read ancient posts from anybody with a five-year medal, it sounds like someone else posted them. Sorry I'll try to stop the anticipation from killing me Miss Tron! But just guarantee that Legends will appear at Tgs and I'll never have this problem again Miss Tron, eh? Now you're giving me ideas. Nobody's called me that since my brother and my neighbors decided they all wanted to become Servbots. :22: |

(EDIT: Bugger. Miss Dashe beat me to it.) Jhreamer (Razor_Guardian)_Guardian I am Pitch. I changed my name a few years back. I mean, all Capcom's little teases broke Pitch back in the day, so who's to say it's going to stop there? They certainly did. Hah. (I'm not exactly sure what the rest of that meant, but hey) |

I'm in too deep just to stay along the 2010 mml3 false hype train, I'm here to stay now  Although I agree I might go crazy with my theories then. |
