4.0 out of 5 stars An Amazing Accompaniment to the Megaman Zero Games! June 15, 2008
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
After so many moons of waiting and waiting for this book to come out it is finally here! To put into perspective how long I've been waiting for this book to come out I believe that the first pre-order I put with Amazon.com was on February 20th, 2007. That's over a year ago! I can safely say that this book delivers on all fronts and is well worth the wait.

This book is 176 pages of filled with great art and information about the Megaman Zero Series. It provides inside information on the characters of the series as well as how some came about and more information about them that might not necessarily have been included in the games. It even provides great insight into characters that were cut from the final product of said series. Great art, great insight into the series and it's creators, what more could you ask for?

There are actually two things that I could ask for and those come in the forms of errors. On page 169 leading into page 170 there is a sentence that seems to have been cut off. "Since we had left the first game with such an open ending, I think we manage to pull of the..." Pull what off? Pull of the correct way to open the second game? Pull of the best way to start the second game? What is it? As soon as you hit page 170 a new question is asked and the previous sentence is never finished.

The second error comes in on page 153; there is a picture that was reused from page 152. The picture in question fits perfectly in 152 but not in 153 which a different scene is playing out entirely. You're reading scene after scene then you stop abruptly at this scene that doesn't even belong there!

These two errors make me feel a bit disappointed in the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Some of Mega Man's very best art design March 13, 2012
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Mega Man, in all its forms, is truly a spectacular gaming franchise. A lot of aspects about the series are truly iconic, its extremely charming, stylistic art design not least of all. The Mega Man Zero series is no exception. I personally love the Zero series for many reasons, but one of the most compelling aspects for me has always been its spectacular art. To be able to have a book with the sole purpose of showcasing that art is truly a brilliant idea.

It's pretty interesting to see progression in a gaming series' art direction. In the Classic Mega Man series, you had more of an old-school, classical cartoon anime vibe, with Mega Man X taking it in a slightly more detailed, hardcore direction. Zero continues that trend, but instead of just adding a bit more edge and mature details to an already established design, it literally redefined the very core of the art design itself, taking it into radically new directions. It definitely still retains the spirit of Mega Man though. Personally, I find the art of the Mega Man Zero series to not only be some of the best in the Mega Man name, but in video games as a whole. It's that good.

The organization of the book is intuitive and the lay-out is quite pleasing. It's organized by categories, like main characters, bosses, enemies, cyber elves, extras, etc. The characters are truly brimming with life and personality. The enemy designs are super compelling.

5.0 out of 5 stars Freakin Awesome! April 21, 2009
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I've been a mega man fan all my life, but that doesn't mean that I've been a big fan of all the different types of artwork for each series. The ones that have caught my eyes over the years have been the Mega Man X series and the Mega Man Zero series for the GameBoy Advance/DS.

This book in particular is a major showcase on how much time and thought is spent on making this game come to life. There are several pictures of the hero and the enemies in this book. From conceptual to the finished version, you get a pretty good look at what was included (and no included) in the game.

Many of the chapters are broken up into whatever title the Mega Man was created, and it shows you what bosses/characters were in that version. Towards the end, they show you some of the characters that were created but was never implemented into the game.

There are a few pages, however, where one reviewer mentioned that the words were cut off. No big deal, really. Most of the translated Japanese text was done well, although there are a few pages that don't translate it for you. This didn't bother me, since the artwork speaks for itself.

The cover of the book is like a holographic type, so it's nice and shiny. Trust me, you got to check this one out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Megaman Zero dream book! July 10, 2008
By Lupe
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I am a fan of the Megaman Zero series. I love the hardcore gameplay and rating system and when I read about this book last year and saw it was sold out I was sadden but I kept checking to see if it restocked. Now after such a long, LONG time it is back and my goodness, I wasn't going to miss out a second time. This is a great book for the fans of the series. The art is what took me into the game as well, and there is TON of that in here. I love the reflective cover of the book and the interviews as well inside. If your a fan of the series, don't pass this up, a great buy!

UDON is re-printing Megaman Zero complete works and Megaman complete works
Yes, I e-mailed the company a few months ago asking of they would, and he said yes. Of course, he said that the Mega Man Zero artbook would be reprinted in October, and it's now November. Still, that's sort of typical for Udon - Udon time is kind of like Valve time. Generally, they're three to... Read more
