Mega Man X8 (2004 Video Game)

Mark Gatha: X

Quotes 

• X : You used to be an incredible scientist. What happened? What are you up to?

  Gravity Antonion : Incredible scientist? Who are you to say such things?

• Sigma : [on Hard Mode, grabbing either X, Zero, or Axl by the throat]  Wallow in despair and hopelessness! The plan to destroy the world you so love is finally coming to fruition! I shed no tears for you and your kind! Ha ha ha ha ha! It will all be over soon!

  X : [if the player is using X]  Even if you were behind the Jakob Project... I won't give up until I've put a stop to your evil scheme!

  Zero : [if the player is using Zero]  Sigma, as long as I still function, you won't get your happy ending!

  Axl : [if the player is using Axl]  Ha, if I give up now, all my efforts would be wasted. I refuse to give up!

• [after defeating Sigma] 

  X : Oh, Lumine. Are you OK?

  Lumine : Am I OK? Of course. Now that you've defeated Sigma, I suppose you're satisfied. Thanks to you, the plan has gone smoothly.

  Axl : But Lumine, weren't you just used by Sigma?

  Lumine : Used? I don't think so. You see, he merely helped my plan along...

  [stomps on Sigma's corpse, then turns to X, Zero, and Axl menacingly] 

  Lumine : The new generation Reploids have been awakened, and the new world is at hand!

  X : [Lumine suddenly attacks X, Zero, and Axl, and eventually the trio subdue Lumine]  Lumine! What are you doing? Don't tell me you've gone Maverick, too...

  Lumine : Maverick? You don't really think that's the case, do you? That's why you can't finish me off, right? You don't have it in you... The copy chips we new generation Reploids possess... They were derived from data from hundreds of old model Reploids. That means, of course, that Sigma was also included in the mix. Do you understand what I'm getting at here?

  Axl : Copy chip? Sigma? Does that mean I'll go nuts like he did?

  Lumine : Sorry, but prototypes like you don't have the specs to cause something like that. Besides... Was Sigma really crazy? He rebelled against your world. But he had his reasons... The rest of us new Reploids could turn like that at any moment... This decision to wage battle against the old world was made consciously. In other words, we possess the power to go Maverick at will!

  [Lumine chuckles] 

  Lumine : X... Do you really have what it takes to stop us? You're merely tools of the humans, tools of the old world... You think you can stand up to those of us who have evolved this far?

  [X lowers his head and Lumine laughs evilly] 

  Lumine : The world is changing! Therefore it's only natural that evolution takes its course.

  [Lumine holds out his hand as if to grasp the Earth] 

  Lumine : Now, line up to be exterminated!

  [Axl suddenly shoots Lumine] 

  Lumine : Ow!

  [Lumine angrily glares at the group] 

  Axl : Don't let him get to you, X. He's the enemy.

  Lumine : Enemy, Ally... This issue isn't so black and white. Reploids, along with humanity, have irrevocably changed. The nature of their existence has also changed. You are not needed in our new world!

  Zero : You can babble all you want, but we're not gonna let you get away with this!

  [final battle ensues]
