It pretty much looks the same as what a real game would've looked like except that they have no animation. You've to see know what the Japanese official sites for the other MMZ/ZX games look like for that to make sense, though.

They also got the random quotes that sounds profound but actually have no meaning quite well. I like the one on Guardians where Praire says "This power... is dangerous (please buy the next game to find out why)".

*sigh*

I no longer recognize any of the characters in the Megaman series...

Hell, which one of those guys is supposed to be Megaman? :huh:

Pretty much every character of note in the ZX series is a Megaman, which is roughly defined as anyone who can transform into some kind of armored robot being.

In particular you got the H, F, L, P, and the ZX models of Megaman in the site.

The original Megaman would be the alpha model, while X is the X model, and Zero is the Z model, which is why ZX looks like a cross between X and Zero.

You forgot Model A which is Axl.

Ahh Megaman... then yeah, I don't feel bad for not knowing any of that. I was a Genesis kid; my first and only Nintendo was my DS that's laid dormant on my desk shelf for at least a year now. (not Nintendos fault, I just apparently don't care for portable gaming)

I try to forget the fact that Axl ever existed.

I think A actually stands for Albert, not Axl. It's just a pure coincidence that the model A looks exactly like Axl, similar to how Giro looks like Zero, or that there's a 99.9999999% chance that Priaire is Alouette but it is still unverified so technically she could be someone else.

Somebody's living in denial. :)

You should be aware now that the Megaman universe is loathe to incorporate anything concrete into its storyline. The X series never acknowledged the existence of the original Megaman. The Z series minimally acknowledges the X series's existence. And now the ZX series minimally acknolwedges the X series's existence and it tries very hard to pretend it was never there. I don't think the Guardian models are ever referred by their original names. In fact the Z series doesn't even acknowledge the fact that all the Guardians died (in Z3).

As far as canon goes, you're supposed to believe that any resemblance of model H to Harpuia, L to Leviathan, F to Fefnir, P to Phantom, Z to Zero, X to X, and A for Axl is purely coincidental.
