Yknow, I've been playing a lot of Marvel VS. Capcom 2 recently, and while it's not my favorite game ever, I do enjoy it quite a bit. One of my favorite characters in the game is Tron Bonne, a character from the Megaman Legends games. While I don't think she's that great in this game, I really like playing as her, mostly because I enjoy the games she's from, as well as her character and personality in general. However, the main reason I like to play as her is not Tron herself, but in fact, the tiny little robot to her side.

Behold, the Servbot!
(The little dude on the left) |
Servbots are essentially little LEGO people that Tron Bonne constructed to be her servants, and my god, they're amazing. There's just something inherently adorable about their design that makes me want to hug them. Imagine having an army of these little dudes cooking your meals, doing your laundry, tucking you in at night, doing your school work, unleashing their ultimate power onto your greatest enemies, crushing anyone who apposes you under their tiny little bodies, robbing banks, conquering nations... Wait, forget those last few parts! I can't have people knowing my plans...
But maybe you've never played a MegaMan Legends game, and yet you still recognize these little guys. Well, they do cameo quite a bit in some other Capcom games, the Dead Rising series in particular. In those games (From what I've seen at least, I have yet to play them myself) there are various stores containing Servbot related merchandise. You can play through this violent zombie apocalypse game wearing a giant Servbot head, and it is truly glorious.
I'm not one for zombie games, but I want to play this game just to go around wearing a Servbot head and beating people with Servbot heads.
But yeah, that's my opinion on the Servbots. They're adorable, and I love them, and so should you!
...
Wait a second. Servbots are small, indestructible, yellow and blue, adorable servants that work for an evil doer... Where have I heard of that before?

| OH GOD |
Well, I I didn't think it was possible for me to hate minions more, but once again I was proved wrong. Stupid minions, copying Servbots! For shame! I hate the Minions
so much that I'm not even going to talk about it right now! Nope! This post is long enough as it is, the minions deserve their own post to be completely destroyed. Besides, this isn't a post about the minions, this is a post about Servbots, and how adorable they are!
Look at this little guy, I just want to hug him! You sweep that floor, little guy! Make your boss happy!
One final note I'd like to point out is Tron Bonne's "Lunch Rush" move from the Marvel VS. Capcom games. In this move, all of the Servbots run by you to get their lunch, trampling over your opponent. A really nice detail I felt like pointing out is that the move does 41 hits, and there are 41 Servbots in total from the MegaMan Legends games. It's little details like that which make me want Marvel Vs. Capcom 3! One day.
Oh yeah, Servbot is also in Marvel VS. Capcom 2! He's the worst character in the game. Isn't that fun?
I like how you put picture of what your talking about and how you have game that I know that is really weird because I dont know much about game but im learning from this blog awesome job Craig
ReplyDeletei have played that game before and i never knew actually that minions copied the servbots but this is really fun.
ReplyDeleteMinions used to be the bane of my very existence, but since they seem to be getting slightly less popular, that is decreasing that. However, now that I know that they copied ServBots they are once again the bane of my very existence. An annoying yellow monster copied off of a significantly cooler robot? I hate them once more.
ReplyDeletePrepare your diddly hole, they're probably going to make a comeback. There's another Dispicable Me movie in the works, and I wouldn't be surprised if they make a second minions movie, just to make even more money. I'm also willing to bet they'll be a Minions TV show, it's not like it would be hard to make 11 minute episodes of the minions screaming and being "lolrandem xD".
DeleteGreat blog post craig, i too find the minnions very annoying, and yeah marvel vs capcom 2 is a very good game, idk much about tron but she seems like a very coll character.
