A Critical Look at Mega Man Stages: Bomb Man

Following Elec Man, we proceed to Bomb Man’s Stage (and its music). Right away, a Blaster jumps into our face. Then a bunch more. Combined with the staggered terrain, this is already among the best couple screens we’ve seen so far. The exploding thing is a Bombombomb (henceforth referred to as a bomb because nuts […]

A Critical Look at Mega Man Stages: Elec Man

Continuing from where we left off with Ice Man, we now move on to Elec Man’s Stage (and his accompanying music). We start out having to climb a few platforms guarded by Gabyoalls.
