Who changed Rockman's name to Mega Man?

Wasnt it in like MegaMan 3 they explain the change? Dr. Light made 2 Reploids, Rock and Roll. Then Wily Attacks, so Rock, having a strong sense of justice, requests Dr. Light to turn him into a battle Reploid. Thus making him MegaMan.

ROCKMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!

No, Mr Morici. You know what was terrible? Your #$^*)! box art, that's what.

Like how Pac-Man's real name is Puck-Man?

As long as we're posting MegaMan vids...

0-o MegaMan X Command Mission is a broken POS it was absolutely horrible, now a MMX/MM RPG is not a bad idea but Command Mission was just bad.

8bit/side scrolling MM is ok but dated and frankly stinks of sour milking cause they don't have anything else better to do.

MML with better controls 3rdP mode for autoaim shooting FP mode for precision shooting. I mean hell re make MM 1-2 or MMX 1-2 as a MML style game it would fcking PWN!!!!!!!!!!!

he doesn't have rock powers it makes no sense.

Battle network could be fixed but tis milked, Command mission core was not bad but they need to gut it(at least the starting out damages over 1000HP) refine it(in a more whole RPG and not a short odd this feels like the last part of a whole game).

Network transmission sucked big time, MMX7+ suck , MM( the 8bit one was not bad, the Zero games since 2+ felt like weak cash ins.

Mega man needs to be revitalized like Casltvina was with SOTN or Metroid with Metroid Prime.

MML was the right direction to take MM in at least with unrefined core gamepaly elements, they need to take MML, Bionic commando and lost planet and DMC and has out a solid 3rdP adventure/shooter. It can be done you can see it in pieces of their various games but they are unwilling to take the time or expense to do it and they have even said as much..

With that I would plop 100$(or 40$ every 4 titles) done on a MM/MMX collection that had 1-9+ MMX1-5 all remade in either 2D cell shaded animation or MMX7+ style 3d side stroller animation. The trouble is they won't put any effort into a real remake, we get lulz ports and cash ins and I am just sick of it.

Zero/ZX was randomly weak, MMX7+ just aint freaking mega man its some poor half breed mutation that wont die.

Command mission was a lulzy mess and transmission is broken ontop of being weak.

Then again I can say FF12 has a weak broken skill system and a weaker equipment system that makes it deathly boring to watch it masturbate itself, and the real tiem combat is one of the games strong points 0-o.

I don't like Halo 2+ much because tis watered down noob fodder, GOW is cute but hardly a complete or great shooter, its just fodder, UT3 is a joke. Zelda TWP is more of the same with little if any polishing/opening up on the zelda theme.

I just hate modern design that casters to casual zombies that makes games easier,smaller and simpler to play because real gamers, those who give a damn about details and wont lower their standards just because gaming is popular now are in the minority and hunting as flaming troll bait.

It's personal preference. Whether you like one name better or not, doesn't mean it's the best just because. I myself prefer Rockman, because I'm used to playing the Japanese games, and Megaman has always sounded weird to me.

"Still, having grown up with Mega Man, "Rockman" just doesn't sound right."

Yes it does and you are a horrible person for thinking differently.

Mega man is alot better then Rock man.

Netto Hikari in rockman exe is my faviruite for all rockman
