Pick Mega's new look for Mega Man Legends 3 photo

I'm super stoked that development on Mega Man Legends 3 has resumed after its temporary hiatus, especially considering its low position on Capcom's list of priorities. Now that the gears are turning once more, my eyes are peeled for even the slightest progress update.

Remember back when Capcom asked the fans to vote on the design of the game's new female co-star? This time, the dev team wants you to decide upon a redesign for the main man himself. Unlike before, there are only three picks to chose from and their variance is extremely subtle. At a quick glance, you may not even be able to spot any differences!

Design A is Mega Man as he appeared in Legends 2, while design B is a marginally more detailed version of A. Design C makes Mega look less robotic and more like a human wearing a suit of armor. My personal pick would be C, because I've never quite liked how much Mega looked like an action figure with big 'ol ball joints in the previous games.

If you want your voice heard, head on over to Capcom Unity and rock the vote!

I couldn't care less, but I guess number 2 works. Number 3 is the worst of 3 designs that look almost identical.

You just want to look at his megabulge (or lack thereof).

At first I thought this was a joke

umm.. I think I'll go with B, the groin area looks weird for C because he's not wearing a diaper like the other 2

Voted C because .EXE was my favorite design and this is closest. ;p

C. A and B look too busy, while C is streamlined and easy to look at.

I vote C, because it would use a bit less polygons, or even less if textures were made to appear with depth, thus leaving more memory to use amirite?

I voted C as well. I would be just as satisfied with B too, it's a happy medium between A and C.

I'd take the second one, but with hair that looks less stupid.

I like B and C just because I like the metal plating. I voted for C.

B is the best and most robotey looking one. C looks like some dood wearing spandex and A fails at the shoulders.

But option C leaves his Nuts & Bolts open to a more physical interpretation of the Nutcracker! I'm voting A or B for practicality.

I voted B but I wish they'd add "C" hands to "B" and "A" shoulders too.

I went with B because C has no pelvis armor.

I picked B. It's a good, streamlined version of A. But C would be all right as well.

Going with C, though I prefer the darker colors of A. Mega Man should get a crotch guard like Tron Bonne though, why is it that she gets one and he doesn't?

I'm going with C. I'm hardly following the game, but I was disappointed with the design the fans picked. I:

I think B is a good middle ground... C reminds me too much of .exe and that is not what I want shit looking like here.

A, then B, then C.

C's midsection just looks stupid as all hell.

A or B.
C is for the fans of those dumbass newer Megaman games.
Don't be like Sega and try and Reinvent Megaman. We all see how Sonic turned out.

I like all Megaman games. I just like EXE/MMZ's designs more.

Digging B's silver highlights, C makes him look more like he's from the Megaman Zero or Megaman EXE design group.

But the bottom line for me is "YES development is continuing! The very reason I bought a 3DS! Hooray!"

"I've never quite liked how much Mega looked like an action figure with big 'ol ball joints"

Also my reason for picking up C.

@VIsForViking: Knowing as I know my comrades, you can bet your life they would make yaoi fanart out of A and B too.

B looks the best of the three. But really I could care less how he looks as long as this game comes out. Ive waited long enough Capcom!

C looks fucking awful. The butt plate is retarded, as is not protecting his crotch and stomach. Plus the mass of black just makes a giant hole in his design. That shit better not win.

Holy fuck you're stupid. You do realize this is a totally different series than .EXE, right?

I wish just ONCE you could leave a comment without being so damn antagonistic all the time. I've yet to read anything positive out of you.

Looking at them again. The only reason I don't like C is because of the lack of diaper armor. These designs could all be in the game and nobody would even notice.
If there was something to show for how the graphics are going to look I'd offer a better discussion. I loved the graphics for the First 2 Legends games. I liked having the squares and angles. All these new Japanese artists only know how to draw curves.
The PS1 era of gaming was amazing.

Why is hardly anyone picking A? That's the only choice that makes sense, since that's how he looked in the the older games!

I reckon B, whilst A is classic, i'd like an update, and C has no underpants on the outside, which I can not live without.

No underpants, no deal.

I picked C. its looks more human and doesnt have f***ing ball joints, this isnt the 90s where having ball joints was ok because the system was powerful enough.

I would vote B. The colours remind me more of megaman, because of the light blue.
And when this game comes out I'll buy a 3ds.
Also, is there a way to play the other 2, I played them when I was in high school and want to play them again.

Generally I like B or C but the problem I have with them all is his feet are huge.. If C was really going to tone down the robotics the least they could have done was toned down his footwear.

b, its a nice blend of a & c.

I would prefer B or C, since the light blue is better suited for Megaman in general, and I really like the how vibrant the black is on C. However, the lack of crotch armor does look pretty odd. At the end of the day, I could work with any of the designs, though.
