NO not your penis, pump is korean ddr clone only with 5 panels, 4 diagnals 1 middle, thing is i dont get this danm machine its cumbersome to "dance" on and getting use to it is a bitch, plus theres only 2 colors for the arrows, middle and diags. If it sounds like im bitchin i am, but the music is decent as well it should be. personally i'll stick with ddr(not that u care)

I would just like to know if anyone dislikes this machine as much as i do?

DDR is my first love and I like it 10x more than PIU, but actually, PIU came first. Konami copied Andamoro, not vice versa. And it's a good thing they did, too; DDR is just so much better.

Like most people I started with DDR and tried Pump later. I didn't like it as much. I found that I didn't like the songs as much and it wasn't worth the time to get used to the different style pad.

Only with really pathetic women, unfortunately.
I know Breakman would put Megaman Network Transmission into that category, even though I disagree. Britney's Dance Beat certainly fits.

I like anything that falls into the megaman category even if it is crappy
like if they took britneys dance beat and put roll as britney and megaman and company as background dances or characters id buy that shit.

Now, now, I didn't say I didn't like it. I said Break didn't.
I, on the other hand, enjoyed it, despite the fact that I could recognize many many flaws in it.

I usually like anything MegaMan as well. But Network Transmission was one of the worst dissapointments I have ever had. Its not just the messed up Kansas people, IGN and Gamespot both rated it poorly:
http://cube.ign.com/articles/424/424503p1.html wrote: 7.0 Presentation
Old-style Mega Man game engulfed by an Internet theme which is represented in the clunky, but still cool menus.

4.0 Graphics
Unmoving. Average for a Super Nintendo title.

5.0 Sound
Absolute run-of-the-mill music and sound effects with no real stand-outs.

7.0 Gameplay
Yes, the game can be difficult to the point of being frustrating, but it's fun and charming in between those moments; very old-school in nature

4.0 Lasting Appeal
Meh. Players will be able to whip through this one in little more than 10 hours and there's not much to come back for.
I am one of the biggest Mega Man fans around; my nickname and avatar are both inspirations from his wonderful world. But, Network Transmission was made by a division of Capcom that doesn't know Mega Man and it shows. The level design is atrocious, and the fact that it takes like 6-7 shots to kill a fucking Metool... unbelievable, top that off with clumsy gameplay and you have taken everything good out of Mega Man.

I was really excited for this game, now I just hope X7 doesn't suck. Even if it does, I will always love Mega Man. One of the best game series around; even if it does have a blemish like this on its wonderful name

Yeah well me and my friends all love it. IGN is full of shit. I really think you are suffering from a severe case of "not what I expected" syndrome. Have you ever played the other Megaman Battle Network games? In those games, the buster doesn't do shit either, and gee Network Transmission is in the same series so... make any sense yet? Much of the fun is in allocating and using the battle chips, not blasting everything with the buster. I found nothing bad about the level design, it seemed very old school to me. Music was fine, worked well for the game I thought.

And geez, the graphics are one of my favorite things about the game, this is the first Megaman since the days of NES that doesn't make me think that Megaman looks like a huge fucking tool.

Ok I'm done.
