Zero Mission

A remake or remix of the first episode in a series (usually a video game series) which usually creates many new interpretations of the old elements, dramatically adds depth to the plot, and employs quality, technique, and style which evolved since, but were not present in, the first episode.

Most of todayโ€™s popular video game series were first developed for archaic video game systems such as the Commodore 64 or the NES, which didnโ€™t look all that great compared to todayโ€™s technology. Because of this, if you go back to play the first game in any given series, you will probably find simple and unimpressive (and sometimes poorly-made) graphics, controls, level design, and music. A good plot was also hard to find back then, often only existing in the instruction manual which accompanied the game.

As technology improved, many of the games developed sequels and turned into series. These sequels built upon their predecessors, employing an increasingly more impressive style and technique with each new release. As each series became more and more fleshed out, similarities to their premiere games became more and more unrecognizable.

Zero Missions are an increasingly popular fad in video game development today. The idea behind a Zero Mission is to revisit the basic premise of the premiere game, this time in drastically better style of the gameโ€™s sequels. A Zero Mission will almost always employ similar level design (not identical level design, but design full of obvious references), remixed music, and improved graphics to its predecessor. Also, storyline and plot aspects (especially aspects which were introduced into the series after the premiere game) are usually executed and explained more clearly than the first time around.

A Zero Mission is not simply a port with improved graphics, it adds just as much to the series as the other sequels have.

Metroid Zero Mission, a remake of the famous classic Metroid for the NES, seemed to start the growing fad of remaking games in the style of their sequels.

Corrupt Zeros

Millions or billions of dollars that were channeled by businessmen or corporations to the personal bank accounts of corrupt politicians or ministers in exchange for mega projects.

Malaysiaโ€™s ex-prime minister is convicted of money laundering for accumulating extra corrupt zeros into his bank account, who claimed that the obscene amount was a generous donation from a Saudi prince as a reward for supporting Saudi Arabia in her fight against terrorism.

Zero Two

Zero Two can be either:
1. The final boss of Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards

(which I prefer over the other Zero Two)

2. One of the most popular anime characters from Darling in the Franxx
(sorry but I don't watch anime, so I make the definition short)

A: Hey, do you like Zero Two?
B: What? You mean the anime girl or that creepy creature?
A: (wtf is he talking about)
