A Critical Look at Mega Man 3 Stages: Needle Man Revisited
Needle Man Revisited TMMN Staff

Needle Man Revisited Much like the original, this starts with a few Hari Harrys, with the addition of a small spike pit at the end. Lasers make quick work of them. The spike section is more intense this time, and the spike gives players something to think about when...“The Real Science of Mega Man” on 1UP.com
I am admittedly a little hesitant to promote my own work on here, which is why I’m talking about this article I did for 1UP.com two days after it was posted. Plus, today’s updates are running dry and I have other things demanding my attention, so this was quick, too. Anyway, my latest article for […]

Here’s something to think about for fun: We’ve already seen Super Smash Bros.

With Mega Man‘s iffy status as of late, one idea frequently paraded around to anyone who will listen is that of simply rebooting the franchise; that is, starting over again from square one, and letting the world of Mega Man unfold before us once again.

Gemini Man Revisited The first section trades Pepe for Jamacy, which quickly crawls along the ground when it doesn’t have a ladder to climb. Pepe was a better partner for Nitron here as it was strong enough to provide a distraction, while this time both enemies...Rockman Xover Seems to Have Left Out One Hero…
