Wait does this take place in the street fighter universe, magma dragoon was saying 'hadouken'.

The Hadouken fireball was a bonus item/easter egg in the first Mega Man X game.

Just one more thing!
Imagine your assignment is to track down a guy named Magma Dragoon. You're not gonna check a volcano. That's far too obvious.

I appreciate the details of the rich backstory. I am teaching a college course on Mega Man starting next week and this counts as research.

I'm gonna assume he's above me, trying to jump onto me with a big spear, and will be looking up constantly. this will then cause me to fall into an open manhole and lose six seconds on my run.

A "web spider" was also the generic term for the programs that read webpages and followed links in order to build the search engine database.

Besides Cyber Peacock, there's Split Mushroom in this game. He doesn't live on the internet, though, I think you just combined the two.

Also lol @ the Independence Day saucers in Storm Owl's level.
