The Blue Ink Reviews: Archie’s Mega Man #23 – Sons of Light

“Beware The Ides of March!” –William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar ————————————– I know, it’s a Hellishly overused quote meant to give us forewarning of a tyrant’s downfall, but something about it seems just so damn appropriate here. It’s March, after all, getting into the middle of the month, and we kick off the last issue before […]

Last we heard, things weren’t looking good for Machinima’s sprite-based cartoon series “Mega Man Dies at the End.” The plug appeared to have been pulled before the series could reach its proper closure, but that particular problem appears to have been resolved as there will be […]

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: 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. TMMN Staff
