Mega Man Megathread

The only problem with X2 is it's translation

and I'd argue X3 Zero project, and the tweaks patches for X5 and X6 put them on par with X2

Yep. Zero Project v4.8 I think it was, easily puts X3 on par with X1 and X2.

Thinking about this thread had me thinking of those times playing the NES
For Mega Man 5 ... my cousin seems to almost always start off the game taking on Gravity Man
But for me when I was growing up ... I figured Napalm Man was the easiest because all I had to do was jump to avoid the explosion bombs and then slide away then shoot a full charged shot until he was defeated :O Can practically finish that stage too undamaged

Ah ... really fond memories

haven't played it lul

 

[MasterEn]

well, no matter what mega man game it is, at least it isn't mighty number 9. i've heard that the wii u version can brick the console by just booting it up and playing it.

Has anyone in this thread ever played Street Fighter X Mega Man?



I took a crack at it some time ago, but I rage quit at Vega. I remember the game looking really ugly and having boring level design.

Oooo, I haven’t played this since it released! I have no memories about the actual game though except from that the music was nice.

Yeah, the music was good. Unironically one of my favorites.

Love how this one sort of builds on Snake Man’s theme but the synths are PERFECT and sounds just like a Megaman game:

I did actually. Had your exact experience. Wasn’t my thing. Reeked of Megaman fangame syndrome but that’s a completely separate rant I’ll post one day. Goated music though.

Well, now I want to hear that rant.

Bass and Treble Darkstar's profile.

"Forte & Gospel Darkstar"

"Hmm, a car race... Well, fine. It's a good chance to settle things." That's what Forte thought when he heard that Rockman takes part in "Battle & Chase." He drove off on the modified Gospel machine and entered the race!"

Text near Bass: "Prepare yourself, Rockman! I'll end this once and for all!!"

"Gospel Darkstar — Basic performance & special abilities"

"Equipped with Double Engine with average performance, an acceleration-boosting Accel. Wing, and easy-to-handle Almighty Tire. It's a well-balanced machine of the same type as Rush Roadstar. The special abilities include shot attacks Forte Buster and Forte Blast."

Screenshot: "Machines hit by Forte Blast will spin out!"

I like MMX8. It's better than X5, X6, and X7. The English voice actors actually sound good, which is extremely rare for Mega Man games. It's not quite X1-4, but it's super solid.

I beat the entire game on Wii U, and didn't have a problem. I'm sure it happened, but I think it was overreported. They also patched the game too, so maybe they fixed whatever was causing it.

most likely. i've haven't read anything on that, but i wouldn't be surprised if it was patched, and nobody cared enough to check and document it. hopefully it's been either fixed, or it's some insanely rare bug.

I just looked it up. Turns out it never actually bricked consoles, but it hardlocked them, and required you to unplug the consoles and plug them back in. Apparently it was triggered by quitting out of the game while firing an attack. It was patched out and fixed.

 

[Tonberry]

From memory, I think it’s alright. Got it as a birthday present for my 11th birthday and had a great time. I haven’t played in ages though, and iirc you can’t get to the real final boss if you played on Easy which im pretty sure I did back then.

that's good. i remembered reading about that the bricking thing. hardlocking sounds like it would be easy to mistake for bricking. good to hear that it was fixed.

Mega Man X8 is the hardest Mega Man X game for me, but Mega Man X6 can also be very challenging

 

[Deleted member 7989]

X8 is a thing? I thought they stopped at X7. I haven't played past X3 so Idk how it is but I'm sure it's rough. Never heard anything good past the first three. I need to get the X collections sometime.

X4 is really good. I think it’s way better than X3. X5 is okay but it’s insanely easy.

Actually, every MMX game after X2 is mid to trash.

there's an easy way to deal with this. summon a mecha girl from disgaea. her full strike attack can target half of the universe in a single go. there's no way all of the fakes can avoid that.
