I can't be the only one who had weird thoughts about a robot with the name of Pump Man..
Sheep Man? Strike Man? It's almost as if Capcom isn't even trying anymore.
Oh, wait. It's been like that for how many years now?...
Finally, an ice themed master robot, haven't had any of those in the series yet.
On the other hand, a robot master whose power is to turn into a motorcycle? That could actually lead to some new gameplay that the series hasn't seen before.
@ navifairy:
i think there were a few frost robots, like ice man and frost man. and maybe one in 6 too, i don't remember.
pump robot is DUMB, but i'm glad to see capcom embrace some eco-friendly robot villains. considering how old mega man is, we need someone to offset his carbon emissions.
Sorry, I thought the sarcasm was pretty clear. Ice Man (MM1), Blizzard Man (MM6), Freeze Man (MM7), Frost Man (MM8), Cold Man (MM&B), and not to mention Chill Penguin (MMX), Blizzard Buffalo (MMX3), Frost Walrus (MMX4), Blizzard Wolfang (MMX6), Avalanche Yeti (MMX8). The whole ice theme has been a bit over-used by the series.
Though I supposed I shouldn't just be picking on Chill Man. Water-themed bosses have been even more over-used, same with bosses who have a rotating shield weapon, so Pump Man is potentially even less original. That being said, I'll still be downloading Mega Man 10 the first day I can. I always cared more about the levels than the bosses at the end so as long as level design is solid they can go right ahead with the boss re-hashes. That doesn't mean I'm going to stop teasing Capcom about its lack of theme originality though.
I'm still waiting for them to make an ice-themed Robot Master that looks cool (pardon the pun.) Chill Man is pretty close, but only in sprite form.
Sad there isn't a woman in the group. I'd hoped that MM9's Splash Woman had broken the glass ceiling.
