Title: X1 is coming to iPhone...
Post by: NovaMan XP on 10 December 2011, 03:05:34
...and apparently the graphics are getting upgraded.

The only thing I hope for is that they port this to XBLA, PSN and Wiiware or something. X1 with touch screen controls sounds... really awkward.

The graphics for this port look really unflattering. Looks like they literally zoomed in the original sprites but smoothed only the edges of the sprites so that it doesn't look pixelly.

Yeah, it looks pretty interpolated.

I like it... and yet I don't like it.

And wait 'til you hear how awesome* the music is now!

Even if I had an iPhone, I would not EVEN. Buying stuff like this seems like it would send the wrong kind of message to Capcom.
I'm currently surprised the company is even making money right now.

I don't care if it's #####ty. I'm buying it out of principle. two of my thumbs on the ipod screen cover 1/5 of the display.

Graphics definitely look like a rush job, look at the spikes in the top shot!

As pretty as that looks makes me wish they'd make a new X game, like and X9 or a CM2 or something...oh well. Not sure what to think about this one. LOL.

Graphics look like flash, not real impressed, and playing an action game on a touch screen is unplayable.  It makes a keyboard setup like a controller in comparison.  If it gets new remixes I might be interested in that, providing they're better than the MHX fare.

It looks... bad. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=zbht_bSvKcs#!) Also, PAY FOR POWER UPS AND ARRANGED MUSIC! (10 bucks says the music is MHX music)

It comes out tonight apparently in the US. After seeing the gameplay video... not interested.

As terrible as it looks, it looks much better in still frames than it does in animation, that's for sure.

Someone please please PLEASE tell me this is just a joke. This has to be just some horrible freakishly amazing hilarious troll post from someone who knew REALLY WELL what buttons to push.

I didn't know for sure whether to laugh or to cry but I guess insane laughter will do for right now.

John, if you're really going to buy this, I must stop you. And I'm sorry. But but but I can't let you do this to yourself. I can't let you do this to MEGAMAN.

I watched the gameplay video. 1 minute in and I'm boycotting.

I will never support this crap.
You SLIDE BETWEEN SCREENS, it's not one fluid level.
I mean damn, even the SNES could handle that!

And it plays at like 15 frames per second. disgusting.

Post by: NovaMan XP on 21 December 2011, 21:14:53
Yeah, it's definitely #####ty.

The stage changes are absent in this version too. (Flame Mammoth's stage freezing, etc)

Making it impossible to get all upgrades, I believe.

There should be some reason for making it impossible!

And I think till now nothing as such!

The animation is too choppy... And the fact that you can buy upgrades or subtanks sucks, very much. This would be more successful if it was a direct port. Same graphics, same engine, same everything...

I...I think I'll stick with the SNES version.

I was recently looking at this in the "app" store. The art style is puke inducing and looks like bad Flash, so I stuck with MM2.

I had no idea about the screen change and frame rate bullish. I'm guessing the upgrades you can't get from stage changes are the ##### you pay extra for. Genius squad.

this might even be worse than the GBA port of Sonic 1.
