Description I did this for a fellow X9.com member. It's a fan concept of what Gate (X6) may look like if he was adapted to the X8 art style. Neat, huh?

Gate is my favorite of the MMX villains, aside from Maverick Zero. This was a pleasure to create.

I'm glad someone else loves Gate!   Mad you say??  Gate only wants to create an enlightened utopia of science, unlike that wacko Sigma.  Where everyone is a unique individual... because those who weren't were brainwashed!  I mean who cares about mass-produced Reploids?  They were churned out of factories, with cookie-cutter thoughts and morality.  Worse: they are unable to see the true genius of Gate!!  They are mere machines: slaves and tools!  Only an enlightened aristocracy of free-thinking Reploids deserve freedom!

I always thought they'd fix him and bring him back as an ally, but he'd be like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde; most of the time he's on your side, but then his "crazy" side comes out at the most inopportune times.  And even when he's sane he's always pushing science and robotics into places most people would be hesitant to go....

I really like your perspective on Gate! I totally agree on your standpoint on free-thinking Reploids and how unjustly they are treated. Kind of mirrors those in real life society, and that's a deep thing for a Mega Man concept. Well thought out, and appreciated.

Heh, yes, that does sound like what he'd be like if he were to be resurrected. I think he would have the  attributes necessary to push the X series into a fun new direction and remind us all what we love about Mega Man games: good characters, fun gameplay, enthralling BGM (because we all remember what a great soundtrack X6 had -Ok, that's my honest opinion. I loved the music direction that game had), and a twisting plot that drives the story forward (or in all sorts of curvy vectors). We need to see more of him. I think there is still plenty left to his story that needs to be told.

I liked Gate too. I felt pretty bad for what happened to him at the end of X6.
Love this picture of him, though. It's an interesting thought of what he would look like in X8.

I can't really take credit for the idea, as I did this for someone from another site. But yeah, I agree that it's a neat concept. I'd certainly like to see Gate in another official Mega Man X game.

I know. But I still find it worth the effort on both your parts. Let's call it a team effort.
Maybe Gate will appear in a new X game one day. I have hopes for it.

i liked Gate alot better than Lumine (he was too psycho and calculative to me) i wonder what would happen if Capcom brought these characters back and give them some background for being AWOL these past few games.

That sure would be nice! I'd love to see Gate again myself. I still think he has a lot of untapped potential as a character.
