Unofficial Official Mega Man Thread

Too many threads relating to Mega Man.

So, what should we talk about?

....the only one I've played is Mega Man 9. I downloaded the demo thinking I'd just be put off by the difficulty, but I somehow ended up liking it and bought the full version.

I still haven't worked up the nerve to beat Wily's fortress, though.

I draw this comic-like thing sometimes.

I liked the idea of unlocking usable Robot masters in powered up. Its a good way to revisit old classics.

Heat Man. Best. Boss. Evar!

Heatman was the coolest Fire themed robot master. I loved how he was a cigarette lighter

I always like Heat Man's theme.

MMX 1-3 = some of my favorite SNES games ever.

Blast Hornet > you.

Why doesn't anybody ever acknowledge Duo? I think he's an interesting character, and I'm talking about the Classic, not Battle Network, I personally found Duo one of the best parts of Mega Man 8, being one of the only good parts, that is.

Mega Man 8 is probably the only game in the series that turned Mega Man into a Sugar Bowl. There's comical goofiness, and then there's too glurgy to look at.

Still a fun game... i think.

I hate Mega Man 8, for several reasons, but they would make me sound like one of the "Stop Having Fun" Guys, so I'm just gonna say I hate the game because of the boarding levels, ridiculously easy difficulty  ^*

, and bad voice acting (Well, America's anyway, Japan has similar problems, but the voice acting is still solid).

I feel Tenguman's flying part was a Crowning Moment Of Awesome, Duo seems pretty cool (Although the American voice sucks, but in Japan he's voice by Jorota Kosugi), and overall, the way the Robot Masters looked.

You oughtn't feel like "Stop Having Fun" Guys if you're explaining the way you have fun.

I've never played the Battle Network series, Zero series or ZX series. am i missing out on a lot?

Mega Man ZX is definitely worth it if you like platformers, or nice soundtracks.

Mega Man Battle Network is worth it if you enjoy action RP Gs or strategy collectibles.

I'll get around to it eventually. Because... you know...

ALL CREATURE WILL DIE AND ALL THE THINGS WILL BE BROKEN. THAT'S THE LAW OF SAMURAI.

Megaman Zero is pretty awesome. I think that if you liked X, you would like Zero.

Join us in our quest to play all RPG video games! Moving on to disc 2 of Grandia!

Megaman Zero is pretty awesome, it is a bit harder than X, though. And Megaman ZX and it's gimmicks are quite fun too.

Ulitmate Armor: Broken Powerup or Most Broken Powerup?

Ultimate Armor? Pfft, Super So-OHWAIT, wrong series. Yeah, the UA is broken, but it's more like an Infinity +1 Sword.

Heh. My first Mega Man experience was with 7, through the magic of emulation. That's partly why Bass is the first of my two favourite Mega Man characters. Then Mega Man X. Somehow, I mistook Zero for Bass. I have no idea why.

Anyway, I've played all the NES games, MM 9, MM 5 GB, MMX 1-3, MMX 5 via PC, The Zero games, Battle Network 1-3 (couldn't beat 3's final boss, argh), Star Force 1 and 2, the Zero games, both ZX games, and both Legends games (the Misadventures of Tron Bonne excluded).

Honestly, my favourite would be the ZX series, more accessible and fun to play in general, and I love the art style. Ashe more or less became my other favourite character. And I disapprove the notion of a Road Cone in the series.

Also, as a treat, the arranged mix of Splash Woman's stage theme. Dear God, it's amazing.

I also found the Wily Machine arrangement. III mixed it with a freakn' spanish guitar.

And it works.

III?

Are you talking about the same group that was involved with th MMZ soundtracks?

Battle Network 1 was good. Never played the rest.

And it just gets better from there!

Battle Network 2 is better than 1, and 3 is better than 2. the following 3 are all around the spectre, though fans seem to hate 4 the most. 5 has some weird SRPG elements, which I found fun.

III is the official name of Inti Creates' Sound Create Unit, and they created the music for the Zero and ZX series, and 9. They also like arranging their own tunes a lot, too. I personally love their music.

JUMP, JUMP! SLIDE, SLIDE! Hate, HATE, those stages. I've yet to actually pass Wily Stage 1 in MM 8 because of those.

Oh, and has anyone played Mega Man 7 FC? It's basically Mega Man 7 as an 8-bit ala Mega Man 9. I think I made it as far as Dr. Wily's 2nd form on my old computer.

That said, I've completed the first 5 Mega Man classic games along with the first 6 Mega Man X games. X6 caused me much, much pain and therefore I'll never play it again. I've also dabbled into the first 4 Battle Network and the ZX series. The former is a bit of a fun distraction for the GBA while the latter I found to be an enjoyable Metroidvania style game. Zero is another series I enjoyed.

Nope, it's a fan game that manages to emulate the Mega Man NES games quite well. There's no shop though and I think it changed some things around. I wouldn't know, I don't remember much about MM 7 when it comes to hidden items.

Edit: Sorry about the mass editing of my post. Gets confusing I know.
