A Critical Look at Mega Man 4 Stages: Bosses

Boss Theme Something to note about this game is that the sound of the boss’s life bar filling interrupts the music, so you won’t hear the part between roughly 0:03 and 0:06 during these fights. Every boss deals eight points of contact damage except for Pharaoh Man, who deals four. Also, since Mega Man has […]

A Critical Look at Mega Man 4 Stages: Weapons & Items

Once again we’ve collected all the weapons and items the game has to offer, so let’s try them out. Flash Stopper This is a much more powerful upgrade to Flash Man’s weapon, allowing seven uses instead of draining the meter and giving Mega Man the ability to shoot while it’s active. It’s useful for just […]

A Critical Look at Mega Man 4 Stages: Pharaoh Man

Pharaoh Man’s Stage and Music Mega Man sinks into the quicksand slowly, and will die if he reaches the bottom. This takes a long time and the sand doesn’t hinder his jumping at all (though it slows his walking speed a little) so it’s not a serious threat. LanceHeartlocalhost/tmmn

A Critical Look at Mega Man 4 Stages: Bright Man

Bright Man’s Stage and Music Dompan and 100 Watton here have an interesting dynamic. Shooting Watton makes the room dark, but Dompan lets out a burst of fireworks when shot, lighting it again. Both can be destroyed in one hit, and Watton occasionally fires a bomb upward that falls and explodes at a random height, […]

A Critical Look at Mega Man 4 Stages: Ring Man

Ring Man’s Stage and Music Our new enemy is Wall Blaster, who fires three shots at a time towards Mega Man and can take five hits. We also get introduced to the stage gimmick the moment we teleport in, as the floor starts to vanish underneath us. It moves from left to right when Mega […]

A Critical Look at Mega Man 4 Stages: Drill Man

Drill Man’s Stage and Music The first section is filled with Taketentos and Metalls, with a Jumbig breaking it up in the middle. This is a good pairing, as Taketento appears close enough to the Mets to make it difficult to avoid and shoot them without also alerting the Mets or moving far enough back […]

A Critical Look at Mega Man 4 Stages: Skull Man

Skull Man’s Stage and Music This right here is Super Ball Machine Jr. It fires large balls that bounce from the walls, increasing in speed with each bounce. Unfortunately that feature doesn’t come into play much, as walking forward while shooting is enough to handle most of them. The one on top gets a little […]

A Critical Look at Mega Man 4 Stages: Dust Man

Dust Man’s Stage and Music Here we’ve got three new enemies. Shield Attacker moves back and forth, and can only be hit from behind. Metall EX jumps now instead of walking after he fires, and Up’N’Down pops out of the holes in the floor, then drifts down slowly. They all appear by themselves and aren’t […]
