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 […]

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,...

A Critical Look at Mega Man 5 Stages: Stone Man

Title Music & Stage Select Music Mega Man 5 gives us a somewhat lackluster intro compared to the last one, this time using Proto Man as Wily’s new scapegoat. The Robot Master selection is as ridiculous as always, and Mega Man gets a spot on the screen again. Unfortunately his eyes don’t follow the cursor […]
