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

“I love you not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you.” -Elizabeth Barrett Browning ————————————– Ah, Valentine’s Day.

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, […]

Capcom Knows What Happened Between Classic and X, but Ain’t Telling (Or Did They Already?)

What happened in the time between Mega Man and Mega Man X, and how they connect, has long been a source of mystery, speculation, and fan fiction about Zero murdering everyone. Is it possible any answer exists at all? According to Capcom, it does indeed, but they’re playing their cards close to their vest. Coming […]
