Not sure if anyone noticed
In battle network we had opponents based on Robot Masters. In this series we have enemies that are more or less randomly based but with a naming scheme somewhat reminiscent of the X series Mavericks. Also another thing would be that we have Rockman, Roll, Blues and Bass' netnavi counterparts in Battle Network while the three heroes in Starforce well Geo/Omega-xis are the buster, Solo is the swordsman with a name similar to Zero and Ace/Acid are the gunner and third hero they have the X series dinamic going on so wouldn't Starforce be the X to Battle Network's 'Original'?

I wouldnt base it off such a shallow formula. Most of the characters are based of constellations, not just "randomly" named. You may have a point on the way they're named, what with a name and then an adjective, such as Taurus Fire vs Flame Mammoth, though in a little bit of a reverse order. But thats somewhat common in all Megaman games, and even boss titles for games in general. "Noun" Man names were the only thing truly original to the Megaman games. But Starforce series was made specifically with the notion of it being a stand alone series, while that was never stated to be the intention with the X series, so Starforce isnt based around any formula that was present in the X games. Even in its own universe, Starforce is very much unlike Battle Network, both in gameplay and in ideal (though still similiar), which also doesnt compare with X and Original series, which were practically identical, with a few differences.

Also, its funny how you use Rockman, Roll, and Blues, but then still call Forte, Bass. Its also how funny you limit the characters to such simple roles, "Buster" "Swordsman" "Gunner". Megaman wouldnt really be megaman without a buster, so thats not a category at all. Its a fact, that if its a Megaman game, he probably has a buster. But swordsman? Rogue only has a sword about 25% of the time, thats hardly his signifying feature. Rogue can be more described for his fist-fighting, or his irrevocable independence. I think it was accurate when it was said that he was Bass and Protoman together, however I find it to be incorrect when people call Protoman a swordsman as well. The only time he used a swords was in Battle Network, and that is more or less the only time a Megaman used a sword as well, so I would find their usage of swords to be on par with each other, but Megaman wouldnt be pegged as a "swordsman", so I think its a special case that Protoman is. Its very base to try and limit new characters to old molds, Rogue is his own deal. His original features outweigh his related features. And hes really the only other member of the main character gang, along with Megaman and Harp Note, who has their own form. Bud has Taurus Fire, but Taurus Fire wasnt HIIIS to use until the last game. Every other EM Wave Change character was a game local.Unregistered Guy 23:35, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

Okay let's get this started. I was just pointing out the similarities and was wondering if someone else noticed. That thing with Bass/Forte was because I was drawing a blank at his name when I wrote this and didn't want to stop to look it up, so yeah. The names thing being random is true as they could have gone with any other word than the one they added even if the characters elemental didn't change(ie. Tauros Fire to Flare Tauros). Now moving onto roles. When I said buster I meant it in the he gains abilities that allow him to be more flexible in battle against his enemy and he wouldn't be the megaman of the series without that ability so it is a category in and off itself, plus the buster is usual a part of the ananomy. by swordsmen I meant of the trio he's the one commonly seen with a sword and by Gunner well you get the idea.

Rock=EXE, X=SF.Blues=B.EXE, Zero would = Solo/Rogue(similar names in both forms to attributes commonly associated with Zero at 1point or another). Forte=F.exe, Axl= Acid Ace. It's not that hard to see the similarities and compare it that way so no need to get pissy about certain things a person wrote. Xander19

Megaman Starforce = Megaman X?
I think the Starforce series is sort of the Megaman X of the Battle Network Universe? Starforce is more evolved than Battle Network. Megaman X is the evolved version of Megaman. Do you get it? -- Zero-GDX
 * Sort off. Both happen in the future of their series, MMX being 1XX years after MM and MMSF 2XX years after MMBN. --187.114.97.12 19:21, April 18, 2011 (UTC)
