Re: Mega Man 5 - Light vs. Dark
I only wish raocow had shown off how *both* parts of the final battle are weak to this game's gimmick weapons/items. By which I mean, the Skull Tank's weakness is the Super Arrow.

Re: Mega Man 5 - Light vs. Dark
Mega Man 5's final boss theme is noticeably longer and a bit more complex than the other final boss themes taking around a minute and 8 seconds to fully loop, compared to 4's 11 second and 6's 27 second loop. Even Mega Man 7's final boss theme loops after just 30 seconds.
Speaking of which, I wonder why they decided to have final boss themes instead of just a general Wily stage boss theme? It certainly makes that last fight stand out more, but it leads to this weird sense of fatigue in a longer game like Mega Man 5, where you hear the same boss song around 20 times.
In fact, Mega Man 4 has 2 stage themes for both Dr. Cossack and Dr. Wily, yet this game only had one for the Dark Man stages and one for the Wily stages. It's a weird oversight for this game considering how well-made it normally felt. Maybe that's why they made the final boss theme so long?
I think Mega Man 6 does that as well, but don't quote me on that.

Not only did they reenact the Sonic 2 ending, they also finished it off with the SMB1 ending.

Re: Mega Man III - Super Challenge Rockman World
What an introduction there, huh? At least you know what to expect from this game from here on out for the most part. This game has some long jumps and tight fits. Guess after MMII, they wanted a harder game. You're going to get one. Funnily enough, though, it's the stages that are the tough thing here. Many bosses are almost an afterthought since you have a charge shot now that deals a few bars of damage per shot.
Re: Mega Man III - Super Challenge Rockman World
I'm pretty sure you won't be saying that after playing Mega Man IV and V :).first of all: wow, this blows the production value of all other gameboy games out of the water. In fact it's pretty much on par with the nes games, just without the colour.
Like, perhaps a bit of a spoiler, but Mega Man III is simply a good game, definite improvement from I and II. However, IV and V are best games in the classic series IMO. Yes, I mean it, they are that good.

Re: Mega Man III - Super Challenge Rockman World
Oh boy, nostalgia time! This game will forever be near and dear to my heart since it was the first Mega Man I ever played. Even if Dive Man's stage and Dust Man's stage can eat seven entire asses.

Re: Mega Man III - Super Challenge Rockman World
Shadow Man's level is noticeably easier than the NES original (including the boss!) and a good starting point for MMIII. The weapon's obviously also still really good.
I'm pretty sure that you couldn't switch out of Spark Shot to hit the stunned enemy in MM3, so that's an improvement right here. You really shouldn't ignore the weapon, in fact - it's a godsend in some of the later levels, where the game will have no qualms about putting you right in front of an enemy after a drop and going "have fun killing this before it reaches you".

Re: Mega Man III - Super Challenge Rockman World
That was a valiant first attempt at Gemini Man there. Not so much on the rest, but you won. You're totally right about the difficulty curve coming up, but it may hit sooner than you think.

Re: Mega Man III - Super Challenge Rockman World
Questions. Is this series gonna include any of the Zero games? Will Megaman 11 be played at some point too? I think the series could end before 11 comes out, so I'm curious.

Re: Mega Man III - Super Challenge Rockman World
This is specifically based around the Classic series, so no.

Re: Mega Man III - Super Challenge Rockman World
Das what I figured. I guess the series is a little over halfway done then, which makes the MM11 question loom even harder.

Of course he's going to play it. The only question is when.

Re: Mega Man III - Super Challenge Rockman World
I think we're still not quite at the halfway point. He's only done five main games, the two DOS games, and two of the Gameboy games so far.
Meanwhile, we have five main games, three GB games (one of them in progress), Wily Tower, the two MM&B games, and Powered Up left to go.
I don't think we can quite calculate the exact number until we know how he's handling
Although, if he wants to be sure the series goes on that long, he could always play through as alternate characters. Heck, Powered Up alone would fill his schedule for a third of the year if he did.
(no, I don't think he's going to do that)

the finale of MMV
. But I guess we could assume he'll handle it the way Roahm did and get a number from there.Although, if he wants to be sure the series goes on that long, he could always play through as alternate characters. Heck, Powered Up alone would fill his schedule for a third of the year if he did.

Re: Mega Man III - Super Challenge Rockman World
what is probably gonna happen is that the series will end, and when 11 is release I'll pick up from where I left off. Kinda what I did with the Shovel Knight extra missions.

Re: Mega Man III - Super Challenge Rockman World
also: I'm interested in including the zero games, but this depends on one important factor I was never clear on.
Do they follow the same gameplay loop as classic and x of 'choosing from 6 to 8 duder and get a thing', with maybe an intro and a fortress segment

Re: Mega Man III - Super Challenge Rockman World
If you run out of games just transition into the Battle Network series until 11 comes out. RPGs with random encounters make great LPs.

Re: Mega Man III - Super Challenge Rockman World
It's been quite a few years since i played them, but it wasn't quite like that if I recall correctly. You had like a hub area and an open world but it like, points you in the direction you need to go to do the next thing? Someone can correct me. I probably shouldn't be answering this at all because the more I've said the less confident I feel in my knowledge.

Re: Mega Man III - Super Challenge Rockman World
I guess to rephrase what I actually need to know - can you naturally divide the game up by boss encounters, so that I can divide the game in the same way I'm doing it right now.
becuase if I can, I'mma gonna do it. I'mma gonna add the x's and the zeros to ATMM (not gonna replay the first 3 xs though)
