Oh. I thought it did.

Yea, it's basically a media disk.

Even $50 is too much for some pictures in a fancy case.

I beat Galaxy Man

Hm, so I invested the 800 Points and got the game. Being the zen-level-patient being I am, it took me about 1.5 hours to beat all 8 Robot Masters in one sitting and I have to say:

It´s a fun game. Not that easy initially, but since it is just about memorizing the levels, situations and Boss-patterns and after you know in which order to play those stages it gets a lot easier. I guess I´ll try to finish the Wily-Stages tomorrow...sadly you have to do that in one session.

Edit: Aaaand I´m done. Nearly 2 hours playtime...not that bad for the first time I guess.

Edit Edit: And 2nd Time in 01:27h...hey...this is fun.

Splash Woman defeated.

How the hell do you get through the first Wily stage? The part with the three laserbeams that fire across the screen always kills me.

Depends on how you tackle it. Either:

A) Turn the lasers (magma) into platforms with the Cement Shot. This totally makes perfect sense.

B) As soon as you scroll up, use the Rush Coil to shoot up immediately; there's a small pause when you first approach the screen where none of the magma streams are active. Grab the left ladder, climb up and get the E Tank. Climb back down, and hang as low as you can on the ladder. Use the Rush Jet to fly left and land on top of the laser/magma thing (but not on the blast, of course). Then jet right and grab the right most ladder.

The second way sounds more complicated, but I found it to be way easier and with less risk of fucking it up.

It's infinitely more satisfying to figure it out.
Here's a hint:

Spoilers!
Concrete Man

pac-man · #84

Nevermind.

Phoenix Gamma · #85

When I saw the way you're supposed to do it, I was kinda pissed. How am I supposed to know concrete stops magma?

And how the fuck does concrete stop a black hole? Physics don't work like that

I hate videogames.

Guitar Woman · #86

I downloaded it.

I'm glad to see Megaman is still as bullshit difficult as ever. But not really.

Galaxy Man was also absurdly easy. And rightfully, he gave me a really horrible weapon.

Ant10708 · #87

Concrete Man defeated on first encounter with him! Now who to tackle next. Hornet man I reckon.

Guitar Woman · #88

Beat Galaxy Man.

He's really easy. His stage is also really funny because of the little robot crane guys that drop down and drag you to your death.

For some reason I think he's got that base covered.

Guitar Woman · #90

I read that as concrete man for whatever reason

Also beat him again

The Black Hole Bomb is not really useless. It comes in handy when fighting the dragons (About 3-4 hits and that´s it) and at some screens with many enemies close together. Also it kills Jewel Man and that alone makes it a good weapon...glittering pink Jewel Man...but his weapon is awesome, I´ll give him that.

Guitar Woman · #92

Ok, I was up all night playing this

First of all, yeah, Galaxy Man's weapon is actually pretty awesome.

Second of all, FUCK this game

Phoenix Gamma · #93

Anyone try Hard or Super Hard modes? Hard doesn't seem too bad if you've already beaten the game. I'm not dying as much as my first run through normal.

Super Hard is pretty damn tough.

Also, fuck Fake Man's stage. 3 or 4 minibosses, PLUS the Shark Rocket, plus the actual boss. Even when I power through it from start to finish, it takes about 6 minutes, compared to my 2-3 minute records on the other stages.

Guitar Woman · #94

So I played this fucker for two hours last night after only intending to pick it up for five minutes :<

I'm still not a fan of the SPAM YOURSELF UNTIL YOU MEMORIZE ALL THESE PATTERNS brand of difficulty in Megaman, but beating a level that's had its foot up your ass for half an hour is no less satisfying even when it's hard in an extremely gay way. I'm actually starting to really regret using savestates for other Megaman games because it takes that feeling of ULTIMATE VICTORY away from you.

YEAH, FUCK YOU FLOATING BLOCKS THAT FADE FROM THIS MATERIAL DIMENSION AFTER HALF A SECOND, I GOT THE FUCKING PLUG BALLS.

Emu · #95

They're not disappearing, they're platforms jutting out of the wall behind you.

Guitar Woman · #96

Well how was I supposed to know that

MetalMilitia · #97

I downloaded the trial. Played for about 5 minutes. Died about 20 times and finally realised that I don't give a fuck about Mega Man and went off to play something else.
