Listening to my MMX1-6 5 disc OST and a Megaman thread pops up? Considering their frequency, I'm not all that surprised.

>Original or X?

I prefer the speed and story of the X series (as flawed as that may be) but the more simplistic story of "a robot who wants to do right" is still great.

>Favourite Megaman

Megaman 4. Great powers, good stage design, fantastic tunes, awesome Robot Masters and that double castle design, aw yeah. For X series, it would be X4, easy, but X8 is a very close second.

>Least favourite

Megaman X7 for the X series, obviously. For the original series I guess I'd have to go with... Megaman 1. It's just a bit underwhelming when faced with the others.

>Favourite Robot Master

Turboman's in the house! Honorable mentions are Pharaohman and Freezeman. I guess I like the more cocky characters. Maverick wise I'm in it to win it with Magma Dragoon. Honorable mentions: Crush Crayfish (if only for his Japanese name of... Scissors Shrimper), Armored Armadillo and Metal Shark Player.

>Best Stage:

X8's Gigabolt Man-'o-War's stage of course! Nah, I'm just screwing around with you, I'd have to go with Frost Walrus' stage in X4 because of all the ice you can break. Original series-wise; something about Groundman's stage always felt right: lots of challenge, but lots of variety. And getting that last CD (the one where you gotta Rush Search the platform that gets chipped away) is just such a bitch, it's awesome.

>Best Music

X6's Rainy Turtloid stage is great, but I loved the Darkman theme from MM5.

Fuck yeah! Nice to see someone else could see that it wasn't a bad game at all. I swear, its like most Mega Man fans just hate it without actually playing it.

I totally get the feeling man, I hate seeing all the blind hate for X8. I can agree that Gigabolt's stage was pretty shit, but the rest of the game was very solid. Also I guess people have a thing against the Neutral Armour because of the "popped collar", which I think is just pedantic.

>Original or X?
Original. X may have amazing games like X1,X2,X4 that beat the shit out of some Original games but it has garbage like X7. Original is more consistent in quality. There has never been a "bad" Original game.
>Favorite Megaman
Megaman X1 for X Series and MM3 for Orginal. I also put Megaman Zero 2 and ZX very high as my favorites.
>Least Favorite
X7 is a fucking insult and personally everyone should put this on their list.

Boomerang Kuwager

>>759503
>>759486
I have played X8. Alot of the level design feels gimmicky and not really well designed. They also feel uninspired and full of filler. I think the music is pretty generic aside from Gravity Ant's stage(which is also the only well designed stage in the game).

Its better than X7 but anything is really so that's not saying alot.

>>759509
so why didn't you pick snake man for best stage music or boomerang kuwanger for best robot master?

fuck man I don't know

I guess I forgot to put that

>Original or X?

Original. I love the many cues it takes from Tezuka, as well as the addictive music and the fun level design.

>Favorite Megaman

Call me a hipster or an odd duck, but I like 9 the best. The best weapons in any Mega Man game, tough but (usually) fair levels, shop system, and challenges bring lots of replay value and force you to think somewhat creatively. The only things that bring it down for me is the unmemorable music and the stupid plot (But lel who plays Mega Man for the plot).

>Least Favorite

If we're not allowed to put down dumb spin-offs like the one on Game Gear, then probably 5. It's that game where the robot masters felt the least inspired (Charge Man I'm looking at you), the bosses the most repetitive (hey let's have them fight Dark Man 4 times), and the whole "Protoman is a villain!" angle felt really unused. The weapons were pretty lame too, especially compared to the Mega Buster.

>Favorite Robot Master

Wow, shit. Pharoahman, Splash Woman, and Elec Man all come to mind. They have such cool designs, and give you cool weapons to boot.

>Best Stage

Quick Man's stage. I'm a glutton for punishment. Gemini Man's stage is pretty cool too, especially when it's Doc Robot-fied.

>Best Stage Music

Wily Castle 1/2 in Mega Man 2. OKKUSENMAN~! Wily Castle 2 in 9 also comes to mind, especially the remix.

Because it was fucking brutal,also great music

>>759560
>liking MM9
>makes you "the odd man out" or a "hipster"

MM9 is unanimously praised. Mostly due to a mixture of good game design and a heavy dose of "muh nostalgia".

Splash Woman's sprite is also entirely feasible on the NES, despite what others say.

>>759598
There's nothing brutal about fighting 5-6 boring boss fights that have less AI than standard enemies in the game.

The music is great i'll give you that.

>Original or X?
Original

>Favorite Megaman
9. Basically for the stuff >>759602 said.
Also X2 because of heavy doses of nostalgia.

>Least Favorite
1. Most of the stages are bland, the weapon set isn't that great and the controls are a bit awkward. I know it's the first in the series so you have to give a little leniency, but I'd still rather play one of the others.

>Favorite Robot Master
Metal man and Grenade Man

>Best Stage
It's a bit hard to answer, but I'm gonna' go with Jewel Man's stage.

>Best Stage Music
The track for Lumine's second form is my favorite in the series, but if you strictly want stage music, I'll go with Grenade man.

What, Andrew Dickman? He's still around, doing animation work. He got a pilot onto one of those "Oh Yeah Cartoons" type shows on Nick, and historically those have a pretty good chance of getting made into shows.

But he also seems pretty insufferable. Blog posts by him seem to imply that:

1. He has trouble finding work and making a living
2. Doing art for a Mega Man comic would be his dream job
3. He hates Archie and wants nothing to do with them, and takes potshots at the Sonic comic every chance he gets.

Dude could get a job at Archie in a heartbeat but he refuses to swallow his pride and "lower" himself to working for Archie. I think I figured out why you're not making money, man.

>>759698
>archie
pls no

I mean I don't know what he's expecting from a comic company. At least Archie is doing digital comics.

>>759794
which one of the two is better, 9 or 10?

>>759810
10 had the best soundtrack and designs imo

>>759816
exactly the one i was considering to buy
thanks

>>759810
Get them both and decide for yourself. Megaman isn't one of those series you just play one game of.

>>759810
9 is widely considered superior, personally I like the level design better

>>759830
I assume you mean CHARGE buster. It's always been the Megabuster.

>>759784
absolutely, 9 might even be my favorite but that might just be because I'm playing through it right now and my favorite always seems to change to the game that is played at that time.

>>759834
.....(groan)

>>759834
don't even joke about that

>>759830

While not my favorite of the series, I would never go that far. Centaurs, knights and samurai. How is that not awesome?

We're beyond joking. That's the reality of the matter, sad as it is. Best to come to terms with it sooner than later.

>>759834
Megaman vs Street Fighter got downloaded 1 million of times

Considering the game's theme was "world tournament" I thought it made perfect sense. And the oil theme was pretty cool actually.

>>759867
I would love to see a classic Megaman game with Megaman Zero graphics

>>759867

>>759873
It isn't their cash cow anymore. That title belongs to Resident Evil and Street Fighter.

I'm planning on learning to program, and to get into the actual DOING instead of planning out game mechanics and level and enemy ideas etc ad nauseum I'm just going to remake some MM4 levels, and then continue learning by tweaking and trying different things. I'm interested in the action platformer style that Megaman has regardless so it'll be a good way to get into it.

>>759876
>world tournament
oh, I remember, it makes sense in context

yeah, yamato, knight, blizzard and wind are cool as feck

one thing they did right was making the robot master more difficult to guess their weaknesses

>>759885
Monster Hunter too

>>759885

>Developer(s): Inti Creates, Capcom
>Publisher(s): Capcom

I like Roll.

>>759887
>diveman
good choice, have an internet

>>759873
I think Mega Man 10 did poorly which is why they stopped making more classic games, and the ZX games did terribly, the Star Force games started sinking in sales, and X8 and Zero 4 did awful. Basically the later made MM games in every series suffered, but Capcom sees it as disinterest in the games entirely instead of oversaturation, bad marketing (by which I mean no marketing) and weird spin-offs.

>>759903
who doesn't?

>>759881
>>759886

>>759935
was there ever an 8-bit game featuring Bass?

>>759948
He was introduced in 7, the first 16-bit game. So officially, no.

But he was demade into 8-bit style in MM10.

>>759942
hnnnnng....

>>759948
Mega Man 10, he was playable in it I believe

>>759727
I wish those things on the sides were his eyes and his actual eyes were his teeth so he'd look like a smiley Jumping Flash or something

>>759953
10 isn't actually 8-bit though. It just mimics it as best it can.

>>759956

>>759959
And it done a dam good job
>inb4 megaman 11 mimics 16bit

>>759948
Do romhacks count?

>>759972
wasn't megaman 7 an shit? or was it only because there was megaman x there too to be compared?

>>759975
is that hack good?

>>759959
It even let's you play with the graphics and slowdown.

>>759975
watching a video about this,looks fun as hell

>>759907
Which is a damn shame since ZXA, Z4, and MM10 are some of the best games out there in the series. X8 was good too, though anything compared to X7 has to be good. Not as good as the earlier ones but... yeah.

>>759983
>It even let's you play with the graphics

>>759979
Depends who you ask. I found it excellent, but it has a few flaws.

8 felt more like a betrayal of what Megaman was supposed to be.

>>759979
I like 7, but it's definitely not the best. I think the weirdest part is that Mega Man's sprite is bigger but his jump is the same height, so it seems like he can't jump as high. Oh and Spring Man's level sucked. Otherwise it was fine

>>759982
I have no idea. The intro screen says 1999-2001, so I was probably less than ten years old when I played it.
I remember liking it at the time though, they altered all the stage layouts completely to make the game harder. For some reason I found it easier than the original, but I distinctly remember Heatman's stage having tons of holes in the ground.

>>759975
wasn't he playable in 9 or 10?
Hell, dude needs his own game.

>>760030
Well they had Mega Man and Bass on the GBA, so that's something

X. I just like much more fast paced it is. Original is great too.

>>760039
I believe those were the faces used at the end of Mega Man 3 when they go through the original Dr.Light robots and reveal Proto Man as the first

>>760038
Yeah but since the game was originally on the SNES the screen crunch really kills it and makes it balls to the wall hard. Or so I've heard.

>>760030
is this cut out of something?

>>760050
The snes version was pretty hard as well.

>>760064
that looks like a clusterfuck

>>760056
I don't know. I'm a lurker on four chan. I don't ask questions.

>>760050
It just adds a small element of cheapness to an already hard game.

For instance, Burnerman's gimmick is that he needs to be pushed by Ice Wall onto the spikes. If he's not onscreen in the SNES version, he doesn't take Spike damage.

With the edge cut off on the GBA, it's harder to tell what classifies as "on screen".

>>759991
Look at the video options the next time you play it. MM9 and 10 lets you tweak with some things.

>>760094

It is. But it's fun.

>>760119
It is. I'm shocked at how closely the weapons function like their 2D counterparts in most cases.

Also the level designs are really cool, but the palette can be hard on the eyes sometimes.

>>760050
Bass makes it a lot easier. Still tough though.

>>760125
Takes for ever if you just use Bass's default weapon.

8, because the music doesn't sound like it belongs in a Mega Man game, the voice actors are horribly miscast, all the sprites are too big, the platforming's bland, a lot of the time there's too much shit happening on-screen, the slide's fucked up, and that snowboarding part goes on way too long. The only things I like about the game are the soccer ball weapon and the "READY" text. I like the animation style in the cutscenes too, but I'd rather they not be there at all.

I like the progression of design in the Game Boy games. More so than the NES games, I think with each new title you can see the progression unfold. It was entertaining going through them one after another.

Megaman 9. It took everything that was good about Classic Megaman and made it better. Capcom outdid themselves.

>Least Favorite
Megaman 4. I'm really bothered by people who think this is good. The Robot Masters are awful, the level and boss design is a step down from the previous games, the game has numerous slowdown issues. It also introduced the Charge Buster, which had a negative impact on the overall design of the series(there was almost no reason to use any other weapon except on a boss who is weak to it). Not to mention, the colors are all washed out and dark compared to the brighter colors of the previous games and the Music, while still good, is also a step down.

To anyone who prefers the originals: What do you dislike about the X series? Talking about just gameplay here, no complaints about story or which side had the most shitty titles.
I struggle to see how the X games aren't a direct improvement of the originals, while still maintaining the core gameplay mechanics. The transition from Megaman to Megaman X is probably one of my favorite examples of a sequel that really understands what made the series so good, and gives it a fresh start again.

>>762997
I don't think "dislike" factors in. At least not with me. The originals are just so good already. You don't need walljumping and dashing to enjoy good basic platforming. Megaman classic had better basics and was more refined in that regard. X tried a lot of things that really didn't pay off. Plus there's a lot to be said about the charm of more innocent themes of the originals.

Of course, it doesn't help that the later X games were mostly pretty terrible. Classic never had a falling out like that. Not that badly anyways.

I think 5 had the weakest robot masters. they're not all that memorable. I can name every other robot master from the top of my head but for 5 I have to think and remember. Napalm Man and Star man are really the only ones that stand out.

>>763048
Not even Gravity man? I'd consider Gravity man the face of the game. And not just because he's on the boxart. Both his power and design are pretty notable.

>>763052
Alright I guess he gets a honorable mention. His power did help me with the Wily Capsule fight.

One of the comments:

Seriously, X sucked? How?

>>762530
> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xa-Qz-n6320
This video is retarded and the guy said a lot of wrong things.

I can do the same thing and create a video bashing the loved Megaman 2 too. The game is much more flawed than X6.

>>763497

Haven't played an X game after 3. But I could never really enjoy X3, way too much backtracking if you want to get every item. X2 is the best for me.

>>763675

He probably played with naked X instead of Falcon

>s-some of the levels are too hard
>s-some of the bosses are too hard
>muh e-tanks are gone

The only argument he presents that holds any ground at all is the one boss that can only be damaged with crash bombs.

>>763756
He said some levels are too easy while the bosses are too hard, or vice-versa. Difficulty spike.

Also:

> Sprite flicker

>>763760

What's wrong with an easy level having a hard boss, and a hard level having an easy boss? Also, complaining about sprite flicker in a fucking NES game? Seriously?

>>763756
That boss is awful and worst than anything of Megaman X6

Megaman X6 >>> Megaman 2

>>763765
> What's wrong with an easy level having a hard boss, and a hard level having an easy boss?
Difficulty spike?

Also some bosses of 2 aren't hard... they are totally cheap. Like Airman and Wily.

> Also, complaining about sprite flicker in a fucking NES game? Seriously?
It fucked the dragon boss battle.

>>763713
>Stop hating.
this sure is an ironic statement

>>763770
if you can't handle difficulty spikes you shouldn't be playing NES games at all really

>>763675
>the ball-busting last stages

Is this supposed to be a bad thing?

>>763694
I've never played X6, so I'm curious - what did he say that was wrong?

>>763768
Having one terrible thing doesn't necessarily mean the entire game is terrible, you know.

>>763770
But... but Airman is ridiculously easy.

>>763756
>Stuttering.

Go away /v/

>>763787

If Airman is so easy then why I taosenai?

>>763850
I almost forgot about that whole thing

So I've been playing Protoman in MM9 (inb4 >he buys DLC!) and holy shit I can understand why they took out charging. It makes the robot masters incredibly easy. Still think removing the slide was a dick move, though.

>>763048
They're a hell of a lot better than 4's. The only memorable one from 4 for me is Drill Man. Dive man is also ok. The rest look stupid and honestly are pretty stupid.

I actually think 5 is a better game than 4 in almost every way. After how abysmal 4 is, You get some decent level design, a memorable soundtrack, Colorful graphics, and reason to use something other than the megabuster in the levels. Everything sort of "feels like megaman" after how awful 4 nailed the formula.

That's not to say 5 isn't weak, but It's certainly a stronger title than 4 and 6.

>>763768
Go away /v/

READY!

I'm thinking about making a sprite based megaman fighting game

>>764257
How would that work? It sounds neat, but it'd be difficult to incorporate and balance everyone's battle capabilities.

the megas is calmer but more "accessible" and I can listen to it whenever without getting tired

Goddamn this game is awesome. Really think it should have been on the NES or remade in some form it's so good. Only downside is Mega Man seems rather heavy when jumping and there's so much slow down. Other that great game.
