Book Reviews of the Megaman Zero Official Complete Works
Customer Review: All style, no substance
Summary: 2 Stars
I purchased the first two megaman books covering the core series, and the X series at the same time. I went into them expecting nice pictures of my favorite Robot Masters, but I was delighted to see that there was so much more waiting for me. Each book had commentary from the creators of the games on every level of development from the artists, to the directors. They shared who they're favorite characters were, and also how they felt about the games that they were in. When I saw that Megaman Zero was receiving the same treatment, I was extremely excited.
When I received it however, I was dismayed to find that the sparkling commentary was completely absent. The art was beautiful, as I knew it would be, but after being treated to a walk through the process of making the games in the previous books, this one was sorely lacking. There is nothing in the book that goes into any detail of the game, outside the characters bios, and the games story. I knew all of this because I had played the game, and read the instruction manual. That's right; the amount of information found in this book is what they pulled out of the games instruction manual.
While the art is beautiful, this book is a huge step backwards from the products that came before it. There was no reason that such a wonderful series shouldn't get the same respect and attention that a travesty like Megaman x6, 7, and 8 got. If you have to see the artwork, I still wouldn't recommend this book because out right now is the complete collection of the game son the DS complete with photo gallery. That's right; you can get the artwork, and all four of the megaman Zero games for maybe ten dollars more than you would pay for this half finished product. Do yourself a favor, and get the Megaman Zero collection on the DS instead; it is a better investment all around.Mega Man Zero Collection
