I'm sure the majority of us have seen the screens.

Irregular has new graphics style that resembles those of X8. They are 3D styled graphics that completely recreates levels and X himself.

The mavericks have also been redesigned but since everything has remained small so some have argued that they look kinda weird.

So the question is what's your opinion on the new graphics style?

It's a bad idea to keep with these current graphics because they skew the characters too much. the environments are great but the mavericks leave much to be desired and cell shading doesn't look too good with the PSP's high res LCD screen.

I think it's a bad idea too. Nothing was wrong with the old graphics, so there was no need to change them.

I like the backgrounds and the art of the enemies, nice colors. I don't think this will come close to being as good as the X1 for the Super Nintendo, but I'll have to try a demo or something, until I can get my hands on a $250 PSP

WHAT? You guys most be stupid if you want them to keep the old graphics. This what I've been wishing for. How would it possibly be a bad idea? And this is a X1 remake. How would it not be better than the original X1?

Because the mavericks (with the exception of Boomer Kuwanger) look like crap. So does every generic enemy I've seen so far. They don't even match the look of their official artwork anymore. The only person who looks alright is X, and Vile, and even they're not that good looking. That is one of the big things that make it worse. I mean, have you seen what they've done to Launch Octopus, Sting Chameleon, and Chill Penguin? And I didn't think it was possible for Spark Mandrill to get any uglier.

For that matter, I prefer sprites to 3D. Sprites just plain look nicer than 3D models if you ask me. I see Zero swing his sword in 2D, then I see him do the same and 3D, and the 3D one just doesn't look right. Not everyone thinks 3D graphics are the bomb. Not to mention, none of the 3D Mega Man games I've played are as fast as the 2D ones. So there's a good chance this could be the same, which is another thing that could make it worse.

Just because you like 3D graphics, doesn't make it better. And for that matter, remakes aren't always better either.

But what's not to like about the new 3D graphics? So what if the people don't look the same as before? It's because of the graphical changes and that's a good thing.

No, it's not. If the people look worse than before, then it's not a good thing.

Not to mention, since when is changing graphical styles automatically a good thing?

Rikku hates anything that is old, so obviously he will like the new graphics.

well. the 3rd graphics make X look bad :\

i prefer 2D, but it'd be better 3D if it had it so you could move the camera angle and fight like that =) Kinda like SA2:B / KH

You mean like Mega Man Legends? I'd rather they keep that playing style to Legends only and leave X the hell alone as 2D.

Apparently this game released yesterday. And I still need to get a PSP to get this and the other remake. Anyway I still don't see how people are dissapointed with the graphics.

i got the game and beat it already and the graphics IMO shouldve stayed 2D no matter how good the psp's graphics are... i can stand them tho becuase it still has the megaman x feeling to it if u know what i mean. other than that i love the game to death lol

If it kept the old graphics it would feel outdated though.

Although I am a huge fan of the older 2d sprites, I don't think this looks terrible. I don't mind the new graphics I am just glad the remade and remixed such a classic game. Megaman X was incredible and this is good fun too. I am just happy to own a megaman game for me psp
