Yes as a matter of fact I am.
This is going to be so awesome.
The "9" in that artwork looks like shit.
this game is awesome! i don't have a wii. i haven't played it yet.
anway, i love how the first wily stage captures the feeling of the first wily stage in megaman 2. i mean...wow...they did a great fukking job. and i think this game has my favorite boss music ever for the main series. it's never been this deep and sinister. mostly hectic and goofy.
Not sure why legacy is defaulted to on here. Are there really that many people nostalgic for sprite flicker? That was the worst part of the 8-bit era.
Wait - you have a job??Quote:

You can do all kinds of things provided you're creative enough with your explanations.

megaman!
it's funny that the robot master list's numbers are kinda screwed up. the last robot built by dr wily was aqua man (DWN-064) but concrete man is listed as DRN-065. he's taking credit for all the robots dr wily built now? maybe he WAS planning to take over the world!
Hey, uh.... how I get past the horizontal flame bars in the first Wily stage :o
Dunno - I still have to finish off Hornet Man =(
His weapon is really cool once you get it.
According to GameFAQs I guess I'm supposed to use the Concrete gun. How does concrete stop heat?!
You're kidding. Right?
Look man. Oven mitts stop heat. They aren't made of concrete. How can concrete stop heat?
DO YOU SEE?
I WANT LOGIC IN MY MEGA MAN GAMES DAMMIT!
Step of asphalt, step on concrete, then allow some neurons to fire.Quote:

I'm through 5 of the robot masters so far and I must say, this game just isn't that great.
It's better than MM4-7 I'd say. But I really would have preferred they continue from where 8 was going. This game just feels derivative.
that's exactly how it should feel. i really need to hurry up and play this.
It makes me feel like I'd rather be playing MM2 or 3.
That's not a good thing.
It's funny how reading more whining makes me realize that I was overreacting about that DLC.
I'd pay $30 for this game. $21 ain't that bad, and that's if I even want the extras. This is not a Katamari case, dammit.
When's the 360 version coming out? I'm having a hard time deciding between it and the Wii version.
get on the ladder facing right with rush coil ready. Use it and jump as soon as you get on that screen. It's the only chance you get.Quote:

A coworker brought his Nintender into the studio and we passed the controller around. We were able to beat Galaxy Man, and got our asses kicked by damn near every other thing. :lol:
I love it. I'll be having a 360 now to play this at home, I think. Sandpaper plus d-pad equals peace in the middle east, right?
If it doesn't have the best level design in the series, it is in the top TWO.
Seriously?Quote:

I gave up and got this on the Wii =/ Had to hook it up but it has the 50 Challenges right there and the superior controller, so there you go.
Those challenges are INSANE. And you can run time-trials of every level and compare how the rest of the world is doing.
Beating the challenges is neat, but it's kinda distracting when those windows show up during the game. (Is it flicker city if you have legacy mode turned on?)
Easily. Every room is distinct, and you develop a route for dealing with the enemy patterns efficiently. And there's so much cool stuff. Swinging platforms. Weird unraveling snail-lookin' platforms. Lava beams you can turn into cement (man, that one took a while to figure out). Just a touch of disappearing blocks. Gah, I love it!Quote:

I like how they're ALL really useful. You can zip through time attack stages using each one in its proper place and feel like you're doing a speedrun (even though I can't seem to ever shave that last 15 seconds or so off, I'm guessing people are using Rush Jet a lot or something). Oh, and I like how you have to use a lot of them in the Wily stages. There really isn't a useless weapon in the game.
... except maybe the Plug Ball. Haven't really used that one much. But, I haven't been past Wily Castle 3 yet.
That's the token useless weapon that also happens to be the final Wily form's weakness.Quote:

Holy crap. I haven't even finished it once and I DLed it on Monday. This game's kicking my ass, I'm only at the 2nd Wily stage.Quote:

Yeah, no kidding. I hated those elephants.Quote:

Seriously. wtf.
You can squeeze Rush Jet through the opening of that area if you need to.Quote:

Diamond shield is your friend.
My real issue is when I do hit the sweet spot for the jump, I get overly ambitious and forget for a split second that being underwater means even a slight jump will rocket up. So yeah...need to learn to jump. Or squeeze the Rush Jet in there.Quote:

I finished Mega Man 9 today, and I just wanted to confirm that Wily Stage 3 is full of dick moves. Yes, its awesome...but it surely did test my patience a few times...lol.
After completing this game, I'd say that its still as good as Mega Man 2 and 3. In fact, I think its actually a little better than Mega Man 3...but not quite as good as Mega Man 2. Although, it can be argued that its better than 2 just for the fact that its so much more well balanced. Every weapon is useful for something in Mega Man 9.
This is completely wrong.Quote:

I kinda wussed out, though, I went in to Wily's stage with 9 E-tanks and used the 1/2 item for the final stage, lol.
the ending is AWESOME, but I didn't realize at first why Rush showed 9 scenes of Wily's defeat instead of 8; forgot about the Forte game. Showing MegaMan in the colors of the weapon used to defeat each final boss was a nice touch.
Now I think I'll crack open the MM Collection and try playing MM6 for the first time... though I get the feeling I'll be disappointed with it.
Just curious -- What system did you pick up the MM Collection for? I just bought it for Xbox and the lag in the NES games is horrible, although Mega Man 7 felt pretty spot on.Quote:

Come to think of it, I never played 7 or 8, either.
The NES games in the Xbox version feel like the controls have a bit of a lag (Quarter of a second or so?) -- Doesn't sound like a huge deal, but it completely made Mega Man 2 an unpleasurable experience..Quote:

(I always thought it should have started with the letter "P" because it always showed as "P||||||||||||||||||||||||" .)
his arm cannon/gun is called the mega buster (r/loku-bustah!). charging or not. it just didn't have a proper name until mm4...then they went and just called it that.

Do you really want to go down the PENNIES ARCADES IS THE BEST TING ON THE INTERWEBS road? They do good sometimes.
And then they do forty strips about Hellgate: London or something.
ahaha, when i was little i thought it meant plasma or power or something like that.Quote:

You're crap. Ha!
I don't think you had a childhood. It was all Ender's Game training for bitching on the internet.
They put a small team together to work for 3 weeks on an NES shitter, and people call that fan service
You know what fan service is? Putting effort into a new game instead of making some 8 BIT FIDELITY ENGINE
Did you play the game, bitch? It kicks the shit out of 8. Which was what you apparently want in HD.
No, Megaman should have stopped at 2.
The game controls well with the 360 controller. Unfortunately I suck at this game which is strange because 2 and 3 were cakewalk for me. It's on par with 1 for difficulty which means it'll be pretty rewarding once I start kicking ass.
Get out.Quote:

It seems like an alright game, but it's an obvious cash in. Plus I don't think it looks as good as the older ones.
I can't wait until Doom 4 looks like Wolf 3D, the fans will dig it
Then this really, REALLY wasn't meant for you.Quote:

Things MM2 does better than MM9:
1) Some of the music.
2) _________________
The level design is better. More of the weapons are useful for normal gameplay, but none of them are as broken as the Metal Blade. I'm having a hard time coming up with anything to complain about. It's pretty much everything I wanted in a Mega Man game.
Yeah, seriously. I really hope there is something on the drawing boards for a Mega Man 10.
ding ding ding! that's my main problem with 2. the games after seem to focus on the regular buster outside of boss battles. it's good to hear that the weapons are usefull in other places. the timed boss challenges seem like the ones they've had in the battlenetwork and starforce series. in those games you're rewarded with a stronger version of a boss summon attack.Quote:
