Ripot’s Round-Up – 5/28/13

A Critical Look at Mega Man 5 Stages: Star Man

Star Man’s Stage and Music Finally, a new stage mechanic… sort of. This entire stage takes place in space, which is functionally the same as being underwater. It begins with a mess of meteors falling on us as we run toward the hole. Dodging randomized falling objects is a simple concept, but fun nonetheless, and […]

The Blue Ink Reviews Sonic the Hedgehog #249 – Worlds Collide Part 6: Hybrid Heroics

“United we stand, divided we fall.” –Aesop, The Four Oxen and the Lion ————————- When faced with eight Robot Masters all at once, you have a few choices: Run away, set off a bomb designed to level small cities, or play it smart and pick them apart a piece at a time. For the sake of […]

A Critical Look at Mega Man 5 Stages: Charge Man

Charge Man’s Stage and Music Rembakun is our only enemy for the first section. It flies forward while dropping three bombs, and aims in front of Mega Man. They die in one hit, but are reasonably fast and the bombs deal six damage, so they can be dangerous if we’re distracted by platforming or other […]

The Blue Ink Reviews Sonic Universe #52 – Worlds Collide Part 5: The Blue, the Dead, and the Ugly

“Bad art is more tragically beautiful than good art, because it documents human failure.” –Henry Letham, Stay —– Having arrived in the Skull Egg Zone, the bizarre conjoining of Mobian and Wily-esque design, the strike force of Sonic (and pal) and Mega Man (and his brother and his dog) find themselves wondering who’s responsible for […]

A Critical Look at Mega Man 5 Stages: Crystal Man

Crystal Man’s Stage and Music TMMN Staff

Crystal Man’s Stage and Music Pukapucker is our first new enemy of the stage. Shooting the feet causes the head to bounce away in the direction it was facing, but taking out the head destroys both. The head is constantly moving and is thus more difficult to hit,...
