Mercen-X

I don't know where to put this so I'm putting it here. The title condenses one of three dream sequences I'm about to describe. The first is a fight between Cloud Strife and Wolverine that I "got out of a magazine" (in-dream) where Wolverine chopped Cloud's head off while Wolverine only lost three fingers (I guess he didn't have his adamantium skeleton) which promptly grew back though Logan made a face which expressed utter agony. The second is a series of odd in-game conversations meant to note how strangely certain scenes changed based on how you named the characters. For example, there was apparently a character named Vincent who was occasionally called "V" but I named him Mercen-X (I guess I've really gotten used that name now) and so they occasionally called him "X" instead... one hell of a cool interface system, I'd say.
Lastly, the title dream sequence is one had the other night. A firetruck came crashing through a huge building and flew through the air as if it had hit a ramp. It flipped forward and transformed into a robot landing in the center of a large lot. A man in a red cloak (my presumed Vincent), fell from the sky shooting at the robot. Upon landing, he was attacked as the robot unleashed a wave of energy like an offensive shield. It didn't actually do anything but after a couple of seconds it started tossing these huge blocks at Vincent who would then have to double-dodgeroll out of the way. At this point, I felt I was actually playing the game, tilting the analog to see, holding R2 to target-lock, tapping square or X to roll or fire. After enough damage to the machine, it shed most of its parts and got smaller, now resembling a machine version of Weiss. He hefted the cubes into the air and Vincent leapt to hitch a ride. This was the last time he'd be firing on the robot as the last few shots were enough to kill it. Then a point spread showed up. Some amount of kazoo points were given and I complained to myself that I never can earn the "___" trophy. I don't remember what the trophy was actually called. Presumably something more ridiculous that "kazoo points."
