not related to vita topic but uhmm.....
anyone know what happened to Megaman X franchise? i was playing X7 and X8 on my PS2 emulator and man, does it bring back my childhood memories? those boss fights, powerups, X's giga armor, etc......its been 10 years now and those accomplishments are never gets old.
So why Capcom abandon this golden franchise? What were they thinking?

I never managed to play much of X7, but X8 was a disaster of a game.  The series has been on downward spiral since x5 (Which wasn't bad from a gameplay perspective.  X6 on the other hand).  The Zero games is pretty much the continuation you wanted.  I'm sure Inafune would have had all snes games updated on PSP but Maverick Hunter X didn't sell well.  Inafune was working on a first person shooter before he left, but it got canned with all his Megaman projects.   

This was the shooter:

Damn if Megaman becomes FPS then my hype level will reach maximum!

When they changed into TPS in X7 in some stages it was amazing to me and i love the 3D looks.

i too have played Maverick hunter on PSP and the graphic was beautiful, almost like X8 in comparison. 

and of course Megaman Zero i played all 4 of them on my GBA and it was rewarding everytime i defeated the bosses.

and now i'm expecting Mighty no. 9 release and i can't wait to try it.
