Why is he named Rockman?

I always wondered this....He has nothing to do with rocks....MegaMan suits his character more IMHO but if you purist freaks want to flame me.....GO AHEAD IT DOES NOTHING! :twisted:

and then I thought that it was meaning that "HE ROCKS!" but you know Mega Man was made in the 80's...

actually in the original Japanese game

Bass was called Forte

and Treble was called Gospel

try and find some connection in that

I say Capcom USA was trying to make up for giving Rockman such a lame ass name

Megaman is way more corny than Rockman. Who calls themselves Mega? It's a unit representing million. Get a life.

X7... I really wonder if it can make the transition into 3D. I really have mixed reactions to it.

The games are this little thing called "CLASSIC", twit.

Plus a DBZ fighting game is coming out this winter on the PS2. I know what you are thinking(DBZ sucks and all the crap) but I liked Dragon Ball GT:Final Bout and this one looks like a winner. But then again, thats just me. @_@

this is starting to turn into a flame war. *sigh*

personally, the main classics, zelda, ff, and megaman are my favorite series out there.

and i don't see a problem wit buyin a system just to get a game. i no people who did that to get smash brothers, and are even happier to learn game like ff will be coming to gamecube.

anyway, its late, and i can't think straight now, so im out.
