or it would if the hatch wasn't sealed shut. at least you can still revisit it by talking to the operators

there actually have been cases of computer viruses and worms that benefit their hosts. one example was the Welchia worm, which first locates and removes the infamous Blaster worm (after gaining access to the system using the same exploit Blaster used), then it attempts to download and install offici...

since raocow most likely won't be playing through MMZ again, here's all the unlockable stuff: New Game Plus: simply load a cleared save. Cyber-elves you've acquired will carry over, so will any permanent effects and score penalties for those used. be careful, as one Cyber-elf is in Ciel's room, whic...

an easy way to remember the relations between the 3 elements is to use the reverse of that of Mega Man the first (which goes Elec -> Ice -> Fire). basically, follow the order that raocow played those bosses in. and for kicks, here's how I justify the relation between Lightning and the other two elem...

What about Storm Eagle and Storm Owl? Another LPer I watch mentioned the two of them while playing through another game*, and checking the wiki, it appears they are in fact both "Storm" (Sutōmu) in Japanese. yea, I missed that one. those two are the only ones in the first X5 games to shar...

so this game pulls a Final Fantasy VII:

but the Blizzard name was never actually repeated http://orig11.deviantart.net/bf3e/f/2013/176/f/1/bilzzard_biffalo_the_7th_by_raccoon_man-d6ane1s.png in all seriousness though, Blizzard Buffalo's Japanese name is Frozen Buffalio , so at least in Japan the names were never reused... at least until X...

if Zero goes maverick, the fight is affected as follows: he has more health at lower levels he deals more damage on contact he has a few different attacks: his Lv.2 shots are replaced with shots that home in on you, stop right in front of you, and then re-home in on you silent timer: after two minut...

yeah was gonna say, dunno why you opted for the falcon armor when the gaea armor would've just

nullified 90% of the challenge entirely

to be fair, the Gaea Armor redistributes the challenge to the beginning of the level

I wonder if raocow will get the final Light Capsule in the third Zero Space stage, which gives yet another armor for X. Zero can get an upgrade there too, and this can be done in the same playthrough (you simply need to game over so you can save and choose the other character) anyway, because things...

this is the reason that of the first 5 X games, X4 is the only one I haven't beaten yet. and the Ultimate Armor's (via. code in character select screen) infinite Nova Strike isn't much help against the final boss either (though to be fair, I also got to him as Zero, whose corresponding code is purel...

Not gonna lie, I thought Jet Stingray was a hippo. not gonna lie either, having forgotten what animal he was when watching the first vid, I thought he was a horse 'cause his portrait kinda looked like he has a horse mouth (I even joked to myself that it looks like Yoshi's snout) three episodes deep...

here's a link to the fan artwork that's in Bonus Mode: http://www.rockmanpm.com/?p=original/ro ... sspostcard

the L+R+Start thing (holding L+R before entering Bonus Mode) simply allows you to watch the FMV cutscenes

if raocow's playing the US version, it does

there's a third enhancement for the Mega Arm that won't likely be obtained unintentionally in the playthrough: the Turbo Accelerator, which increases the charge speed of the Mega Arm. it's not bought in Dr. Light's lab, but rather obtained by game-overing 4 times in a row on the same stage. this enh...

one thing I've always liked to do with the Rush Power adaptor is to punch the boss doors as I jump through them

when raocow gets to Mega Man V for the Game Boy (Rockman World 5), does he plan on having his emulator run it in Super Game Boy mode?

funfact, on slidin in the slopes, If you kill that boomerang bro at the end there, he drops his boomerang and you can use it. It's literally the end of the level, there's no enemies left unless you backtrack, so all you can do with it is pick it up, throw it, and watch it circle back over your head...

this is the battle where the Charge Kick can really shine. BT4wmIGeGHo there is nothing Dark Man the third can do to hurt you if you get frozen in the middle of a kick You cause contact damage a glitch causes Dark Man to slightly misaim his shots above you when you're frozen on the ground (unless yo...

"how do you destroy the concept of diving?"

you destroy the concept of diving by presenting your bones, because then those who want your bones no longer have to dive into your flesh to get them. thus, Skull Man is next.


also, "what is food?"

And unlike the Gamecube Anniversary Collection, they didn't reverse the jump and fire buttons with no way to remap it! I'm not making this up! They made B jump and A fire, and there was no setting to switch this! (this was actually for all games, not just MM8) at least they learned from that by the...

when raocow gets to Mega Man 8, will he play the PlayStation version? or the Saturn version? both have some pros and cons: FMVs in the PS version use native MPEG whereas the Saturn version uses the lossy Cinepak compression, which results in lower visual quality FMV scenes Music in the Saturn versio...

Does anyone know why lava works the way it does in SMW? Like, any reason they wouldn't just make it like a muncher that insta-kills you and other sprites? It's weird they make it kinda act like water. Maybe something to do with the animation of sprites drowning in it. But I don't know why they coul...

couldn't raocow have simply changed the controller config and set something else to UP, like a random key on the keyboard, so he wouldn't accidentally cling to the nets, and change it back after the level?

or does Snes9x not accept input from multiple sources for a single controller like zsnes does?
