It's easy and lacks any creativity. It's plain jane. Retro is appreciated but the overall design is flat.

Post by: M3wThr33 on December 09, 2009, 07:49:40 PM: This is fucking distinguished mentally-challenged.

Why is it that Mega Man Star Force is the only real series left with story?

They're just raping the original series to appeal to old farts who moved on years ago. Mega Man was about the CHALLENGE! SPIKES! CHEAP KILLS! YEAHHHH!

Mega Man 8 finishes, we have no god damn clue what happened other than Duo flies off. But no, let's take back the graphics 25 years, rape you for DLC if you want to slide and cock block anyone from ACTUALLY FUCKING TYING TOGETHER X and Mega Man.

Yes! Sell themes for $2.50 on the PS3! Want an extra level? PAY MONIES! Slide? Pay to play as PROTOMAN. Take out features that were in Mega Man & Bass? You BETCHA! LAUNCH-DAY DLC? Of course!

God dammit, this is infuriating. (Yes, I'm still protesting MM9, until there's a single bundle it sells for)

Hell, Star Force is getting a cross-over game with Battle Network. That's going to be awesome! But they still ignore the X series, after X8 got it right. Legends is aborted in the water, aside from the PSP ports. Zero ended, but ZX is just a confusing androgynous mess.

And let's not forget, MMX Collection actually had content REMOVED because it was put into Maverick Hunter X, which was to be a full series, and that died, along with MMPU.

But yes, let's go back to Classic Mega Man and not tie up any loose ends.

we're back to Sheep Man again?

Oh god, I'd trade it all for MML3. But that's a lost cause to me. At the VERY FUCKING LEAST I thought MM9 would actually take place between MM8 and X, but I couldn't even get THAT wish. No, it's a brainless story somewhere between 4 and 5. And it sounds like this one is, too.

one of the last times I actually talked to randoms on XBL (years ago), some guy recited the run down of series...and what's canon, what isn't etc. it was sad.

Then again, people try to fit the zelda and mario games into a timeline and other people write stories about Sonic and Tails eating out each other's asses, so it's not all that surprising.

MM9 seems tough at first, but once you get used to the stages you can easily clear the game without dying.

X8 was fine.
Title: Re: Mega Man 10 announced.
Post by: originalz on December 10, 2009, 07:15:24 PM: I never understood the 2.5D craze myself. I've always found most 2.5 platformers to be very "floaty" and not nearly as tight with controls as sprite-based games. Other than looking better (often worse), I've found them to be worse than sprite games. Megaman is all about having tight controls and response, which you're guaranteed to have with the 8bit style.

Anyone who wants to play a 3D-style oldskool Megaman game should be forced to play X7 forever. These things just don't work, if they change it too much then it won't be a Megaman game (similar to how that crap Vectorman PS2 game was looking). Megaman Legends got it right by using the 3D view to take on a whole different direction for the series.

Post by: cool breeze on December 10, 2009, 08:19:01 PM: Drac X Chronicles, MMX PSP, MM Powered Up, Bionic Commande Rearmed are 2.5D games modeled after existing 2D games, and they play perfectly fine/same as original games. Using 3D models and stuff is probably just cheaper than creating new sprites and all that.

Immensely easier. 2D animation requires hand drawing every frame. 3D animation requires one skinning, then you move the bones on keyframes and blend. Plus it's easier to render, as you don't need to load every possible sprite at once.

I didn't play the Megaman PSP games, but Drac X and Bionic Commando aren't exactly what I would consider beautiful games. If anything, the 2.5D shit took away from the game, there were some parts in BC where it was difficult to see what I was doing due to some stupid lighting effect. The game was pretty well-made otherwise, but the loose gameplay works for the series. Drac X was functional but the controls didn't really seem that "tight", which is a problem I always see with 2.5D games.

Really, I find most 2.5D games to be ugly, the models are usually not very attractive and the backgrounds stand out too much. Hell, look at the upcoming Sparkster game, give me a "retro rebirth" of that any day. Konami has done really well with their "rebirth" series, the games play very well, that's all that matters. Compare that to the new Sparkster crap that's coming out. With sprites, there's no floaty physics or ugly 3d models to have to look at.

The only 2.5D game I've played that I can remember having good art direction and controls is that PS2 Contra game, which unfortunately had bad gameplay decisions. I don't understand why so many people want these 2.5 games other than for the sake of incorporating 3d for no reason.

I've always found it strange that although most big companies stay away from sprite-based games, the majority of indie games use them. Can it really be that expensive?
Title: Re: Mega Man 10 announced.
Post by: cool breeze on December 10, 2009, 10:21:26 PM: Just look at the Fez example given above. Doesn't seem like it's releasing soon and it's been shown for a while, or that furry 2D Action game for XBLA. Indie games use them, they just take a long time for one project.

Personally I don't care much for 2.5d nor do I care for trying to replicated graphics from the 80s. I think the best balance is what games like Space Invaders Extreme, Pacman CE, Holy Invasion Badman, etc. do by taking 8-bit and giving it style.
Title: Re: Mega Man 10 announced.
Post by: originalz on December 11, 2009, 12:42:26 AM: Yeah, I think that's a pretty good direction for the 2D genre to take, get the best of both worlds. Kind of unfortunate that no one's really pushing for that sort of evolution, and instead going towards 2.5D. Has there even been a spiced up 2D platformer released yet? Heh, a Metroid game like that could be very nice...

Same here, though I think MM5 and X4 are also pretty excellent. I'd argue X4 is probably my favorite of that particular series... ZX was pretty disappointing; I didn't think the Metroidvania and heavy story was suitable for a MM title. But the music was pretty great at least. Never bothered with the second ZX game.

Post by: MoxManiac on December 12, 2009, 01:48:07 PM: I like all six of the NES megaman games. I also felt the first half of the X games kept the megaman spirit intact with some extra stuff but not TOO much extra stuff.

I think my complaint is it seems that with the modern megaman games they stuff in a lot of extraneous bullshit like constant cutscenes, 500 upgrades, confusing hub worlds and all other kinds of stuff I don't think fits with the series. I like the simplicity of choosing one of the 8 robot masters and running through the levels, repeat.

I think sucked is too strong.

X4 rocked. X5 was pretty good.

Zero 2-4 were the bomb.

Will never understand the people who say the 6 MM titles were so awesome, other MM titles suck while they praise MM4.

I agree with this. The cutscenes and the hub crap in the Zero games is the worst part for me.

Post by: cool breeze on December 12, 2009, 05:55:45 PM: Playing X4 as Zero is my favorite Mega Man game. Actually playing as Mega Man in a 2D platformer, MM2 or 3 is my favorite. Problem with Mega Man platformers as the games went on is that your move set became ridiculous between the dash, airdash, hover, walldash, dash dash, slash dash, shoot dash. I think it was MMX8 that let you swap characters, and there was another new character there, so you'd be switching between Mega Man and some guy who has a machine gun and can't move while firing.

Reason 165 - Nintendo Fans

Sure, we're biased, but Nintendo fans are the best in the world. They tend to wear their fanboyism on their sleeves, or, as often the case, on their skin--many have tattoos of the Triforce and other iconic Nintendo images. Our favorite fan moment is by far the heavily googled unveiling of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess at E3 2004, in which the gathered crowd screamed with joy at the big reveal, and cheered Shigeru Miyamoto--who stood on stage with a replica Master Sword in hand--like a rock god. And these were industry professionals!

Basically an IOS is the launcher that the Wii uses. There's like seventy hojillion of them because Nintendo really sucks at writing code. As new features in SDKs come out, they have new IOSs. To maintain compatibility, they keep the old ones. For hacking the Wii, you simply mod an old IOS to remove the authenticity check and load the game with that. However because of that SOMETIMES games actually use parts of the new SDKs, which means it needs newer IOs.

Nope. That's why Nintendo keeps old IOSs on there. You can cover a lot with just a few, but there isn't 1 IOS to rule them all. Their system is horribly fucking distinguished mentally-challenged.

But doing all the Wily stages at the end will probably take a lot of practice since you can't save between them IIRC.

I like it, but I've only done 2 stages. Seems more of the same, but MM is always good fun. RAGE at first, and then easy after you learn the levels/bosses.
Still, not getting hit at all is insane considering how evil a lot of the stuff is.

Wow, I'm impressed by how shitty of a port job MM10 was to the PS3. It's not even fullscreen and has poor emulator smoothing. I'd rather get this on the Wii, real talk.

Yeah it seemed...off. I haven't played MM9 in forever so I can't remember if it was the same case there.

I still prefer having it on PS3 for ease of use in file management, controls, trophies. But visually the game looks kinda weak. Also I dunno if it's just me but I feel there is a slight lag when jumping which has made me start jumping 1/10th of a second earlier than I normally would.

Also,this is harder than MM9 so far. MM9 robot masters levels were easy aside from like one stage.

Level design is more creative as well. Sheep Man gives me a boner. You fight arrows (as in you know, pointer arrows on computers?) that drag and click on boxes to throw them at you.

Title: Re: Mega Man 10 announced.
Post by: Himu on March 13, 2010, 03:14:37 AM: This game is a test of reflexes more so than any Mega Man before it. Most classic Mega Man titles are tame when it comes to reflex based action. They're not extactly the most twitchy action-platformers out there.

MM10 is all about twitch. You'll fall down ladders only to be met with spring guys, so you have to instantly jump right when you land to avoid him, and then jump AGAIN when you do land so he doesn't catch you.

You'll be navigating through an ice level where you're given very little traction or holding for Mega to walk or run on, so you're going to be jumping through most of that level (especially when on ice blocks). This becomes an issue when you're fighting birds who shoot missiles at you AND dudes who shoot bullet pellets that spread into four beams, all the while platforming from section to section, taking on enemy after enemy.

And then there's the second mini boss in Strike Man's stage.

Whooo boy howdy, this game is probably the hardest classic Mega Man since Mega Man 1 probably (that is, if you don't count Mega Man n' Bass) and I haven't even gotten to the Wily stages yet.

Suffice to say, this game is good. Real good, and it doesn't show an emphasis on levels designed around cheap spikes either, although those are certainly there, but also the enemies in general. You have to have quick reflexes for this Mega Man.

I tried out Proto Man and I dislike the lag in his shooting. If you shoot while jumping he stops shooting in mid-air, and continues upon landing. Not good for my style of play, which is basically "jam shoot button if enemy is within firing range" or more specifically "rotate between jump and shoot button with ballerina like precision. 1, 2, 1, 2 or at at the same time." Proto Man having charge and slide is definitely awesome though,and that alone should add to the replay value of an already replayable series.

Just did Nitro Man's stage and that wasn't too bad either. Worst so far have been Solar Man & Pump Man's stage. I HATE the 2nd flying chicken in Solar Man's miniboss after you kill 1 of the chickens. He barely comes down and keeps throwing flames that I find tough to follow.

I have Commando, Blade, and Strike left.

Post by: Himu on March 15, 2010, 07:15:55 PM: Gosh, I love this game so much.

You know, I thought that going for Sheep Man first in the boss order would be the best as he's the easiest boss and contains arguably the easiest level.

But I did Pump Man's stage, which is arguably even easier than Sheep Man's, and got his power. Immediately went to Solar Man's stage and got his power, made a world of difference.

I say this because his Pump Man's power is the Water Shield. It's a variant of the Leaf Shield in MM2, and similarly it does wonders for offense and defense. So after taking out Solar Man with the Water Shield, I went to Nitro Man's stage and equipped the Solar Flare weapon. It's equally as handy.

So right now I'm coming up with an order interally in my head, I don't like to cheat and look up what weakness is what in these games so far, when I play on hard mode as Proto Man I plan on doing this:

1. Pump Man
2. Sheep Man
3. Solar Man

I'll see what the rest my order is once I get to the boss gauntlet in the Wily castle.

Also, some stage music is growing on me. I love Solar Man's stage music particular and Nitro Man's of course. There's also Pump Man. :rock

Buy lots of E-Tanks

Jump into boss room with nothing but regular gun

Shoot wildly and guzzle E-Tanks like cum

Repeat

Beat Game

I have tried every single weapon on this guy and he's not budging. I use the pea shooter and it barely makes a dent. I've used all weapons in both forms (bike and robot form) and I have not found a weakness.

Mega Man 10

(http://www.bomb-omb.com/images/Mega_Man10.JPG)

I think overall this is probably the best classic Mega Man title in terms of difficulty balance. It's not too difficult in that it's cheap (MM1 I'm looking at you), but it's no cake walk either. The interesting thing about MM10, however is that its challenge mostly doesn't come from the platforming itself, but the enemies you fight. Compared to other classic Mega Man titles, this game is probably the most action-based title in the series.

You can see Inti Creates influence flow throughout every section of this game. Whereas MM9 was mostly a return to the basics for classic MM, MM10 manages to merge both classic MM an modern MM (particularly the Zero series) formulas into one cohesive package: you'll have multiple routes you can take in the game (just like in the Zero games) each route with varying degrees of difficulty, there are multiple modes and incentives to replay beyond "I want to beat this without getting hit once", its features multiple characters each with their own play style, and the game is far more action-based compared to its predecessors.

One thing I'd like to mention is the creative level design. I think this game missed some potential in regards to platforming, but I think it makes up for that in the fun levels it has. Pump Man and Solar Man in particular are probably some of the coolest stages in the whole series, and the Wily stages are the funnest I've had in the series since MM3's: not too long (MM4 and up), at least 6-7 different mid boss fights (some are straight fan service!), and varied level design.

Honestly, if there's one thing I dislike about the game beyond the fact it could feature better platforming, it's the robot master weapons. They're honestly not all that fun to use. In games like MM2 and 3 I tend to make certain sub-weapons (quick shot, metal blade;etc) my main weapons because they're such a blast to use. Then again, that's not being fair to MM10 because outside of a few MM titles, this complaint is universal for me.

The music is hit and miss but when it hits, it really nails it.

High replay value, fun level designs, decent challenge, great music...I think it's safe to say I doubt few games will nearly as fun as MM10 this year, and I haven't even touched Proto Man, Hard Mode, or Time Trial mode yet.

In a futile attempt to try and rank these games after the release of MM10:

MM2=MM10=MM3 > MM: Powered Up > MM6 > MM9 > MM5 > MM7 > MM1 original > MMnB > MM4 > MM8

As for the future of MM, I really hope that we can get some new MM titles that aren't within the classic MM bracket or one of those stupid Star Force rpgs sometime soon, because I think there's a distinct lack of Mega Man action on my handhelds in the past two or three years.

but I don't like MM10 as much as MM9. The weapons suck, the stages are kinda forgettable with underused elements and the boss fights are zzz. And there's too much of a focus on bullet sponge mini-bosses. Also the music sucks compared to MM9.

On the plus side I like that there are multiple paths and Protoman is playable from the start.

I seem to be the only who, although he likes MM9, doesn't like it nearly as much as everyone else.

It's probably MM9's crappy Wily Castle that made me like it less.
Title: Re: Mega Man 10 announced.
Post by: Bebpo on March 29, 2010, 12:54:41 AM: I sat down and finished this tonight. I can kind of see where Segata was coming from saying it's an easy game.
I don't think it's easy! But, I do think this is a badly balanced MM. Some stages are super easy, others are quite hard. Wiley's castle is the best example of this. I thought Wiley 1&2&3 were tough stages with multiple mid-bosses and wiley 3 has a nasty boss. But then Wiley 4/5 are a joke. Wiley 4 is super easy and Wiley 5....they give you TWO M tanks and ONE E tank right before the final boss. Not too mention the last couple of Wiley stages throw out E/M tanks and lives left & right. Plus the final boss is pretty simple; in fact most of the bosses are really simple and have like 2 patterns. I dunno, sometimes I thought it was the toughest MM game, sometimes I thought it was the easiest. Very few times did I think the difficulty was just right. Wiley 1 is a good example of "just right" difficulty. Long stage with 3 unique mid-bosses with multiple patterns each.

It's a good game, but after finishing it I don't think I'd ever replay it. Whereas when I finished MM9 I went back through it was a few times simply because it was really fun. But I will give Protoman a quick shot, at least to see what his shop looks like.

Post by: The Sceneman on April 02, 2010, 09:38:05 PM: I just got this, Ive never played a Mega Man game before. Game is LEGIT from what I can tell, super fun and Im enjoying the challenge. Ive been on a retro tip lately. Playing it with my SF4 gamepad, its dreamy :-*

some of the achievements are for japanese robots though! Beat the game without getting damaged?!
Title: Re: Mega Man 10 announced.
Post by: iconoclast on April 03, 2010, 09:01:16 PM: Finally played through this today. Actually, I practically played through it twice since I redid several of the stages because I forgot about the World Warrior achievement. But anyway, I thought the game was great. I'm a big MM9 fan so I had high hopes for MM10, and it met my expectations, for the most part. The soundtrack isn't as strong and I didn't think the art design of the stages and robot masters was as memorable as MM9's, but maybe it will sink in more during subsequent playthroughs.

The stages and bosses are pretty well designed though, each with their own gimmicks and patterns that stays interesting throughout. Nitro Man and Solar Man in particular were my favorite bosses since they put up a decent fight. I'm pretty fond of Blade Man and Pump Man as well, but their patterns are a little too easy to dodge. I agree most of the robot master's weapons are disappointing, but I like to play using only the Mega Buster most of the time so it doesn't really bother me.

I really liked Wily's Castle as well, especially stage 1 and 3(?).
spoiler (click to show/hide)
The machine with a bunch of old Mega Man bosses was awesome, and who doesn't love Giant Enemy Crabs?
[close]
Then comes Wily 4, which was easily the hardest part of the game for me. Most of the time I'd get to the second phase with around half health, and then I'd usually get caught by one of the traps he sends out and then get nailed with lightning. After a while I just said fuck it and beat him using his weakness. 8)

So yeah, awesome game. Now I guess I'll clean up a few more achievements and then start working on Mr. Perfect. I'm going to try doing it legit, but I'll probably do it on easy mode first just to 200/200 it. They really should have disabled achievements for easy mode, it's just too tempting. :'(

Honestly, of these games: MM2,3,5,6, Powered Up (which is a remake of 1 and is exclusively for the psp), MMX1-5 (although I'm not big on x3) are the best of the bunch but if you were to deduce to bare essentials pick up MM9 and pir8 MM2, MMX on the psp, and somehow score a copy of MMX4 for the psx or pirate it for psp through psx emulation.

Just make the dash button L1 and get to dashing.

Highly suggest getting Mega Man Anniversary Collection and Mega Man X Collection for ps2.

Post by: iconoclast on April 06, 2010, 07:59:44 PM: I thought the second Dr. Wily stage was the only level that was significantly harder than normal, the rest are just a minor step up. The main thing to look out for is all of the robot masters have slightly different patterns and/or an additional attack.

Super Hard on BC:R is a lot more challenging imo.
