Awkward stuff hints and tips for Mega Man X8

Awkward stuff

# Cut Man: If you have a Command Mission save file on your memory card when you play Mega Man X8, you will encounter Cut Man at the end of the Troia Base stage (right before the Maverick battle). Your navigator will tell you this by saying that the data was downloaded from �CM� (except that Cut Man isn�t in Command Mission... It would have been more appropriate if they�d used the Anniversary Collection save, but they didn�t... Ah well). Note that this doesn�t seem to happen during Easy mode. Also, you cannot gain weapons from Cut Man and there is no plot related to this; he�s just there for laughs.

# Infinite Metals: In this game, when you build a Sub-Tank, you also need to build refills for it. For some strange reason, the Life Tank refill item is not grayed out if you don�t have enough metals to buy it. You are allowed to build it anyway. (This doesn�t work for the Weapon Tank refill.) Buying the Life Tank refill when you don�t have enough metals will cause your metals counter to go negative, which overflows the variable. To see this in action, buy the refill, then enter any stage and pick up a metal. You will end up with the maximum 9,999,999 metals. (You don�t have to wait for the counter to count up; just open your subscreen and you will see they are there.) The way to cause this situation on purpose is to delete items that you have built and rebuild them over and over until you have less than 50 metals, then build the Life Tank refill.
