“Science studies what’s at the edge of understanding, and what’s at the edge of understanding is usually fairly simple.” -Noam Chomsky ————————————— We left off having finally gotten the full explanation of how Mega Man ended up in the Green Hill Zone, and how Dr. Wily and Robotnik got the Genesis Wave to cross the […]

Oh, right then. Literally the day after we told you that the Mega Man 3 soundtrack was available on the Capcom Store, they managed to sneak in and put the Mega Man 4 soundtrack up, too. Between this, the last entry in “A Critical Look at Mega Man 4 Stages,” and the release of the […]
