There have been so many games that hold a shining star in gamers eyes when it comes to platformers, and Mega Man is one of the biggest. The character has become so many different things throughout the years. Jason Heine takes a look back at what it once was, on the NES
"Back in 2008, Capcom revived the original Mega Man franchise with a brand new 8-bit installment which itself received a sequel shortly after. So, let's explore these 2 retro revivals and see which one is worthier of its bolts." - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums
I would’ve preferred if they stuck with the 16/32-bit aesthetics
If Mega Man 9 had to be 8-bit, then Mega Man 10 should’ve been twice that to separate it from its predecessor
Like any franchise, there are entries in the mainline Mega Man series have proved better than others, either because of how much they did (or didn't) alter the gameplay design philosophy that made it legendary in the industry. Today, we've got every mainline entry in the series ranked from worst to best.
Neil writes: "Let's be honest - the Xbox Live Deals With Gold sale last week was a bit rubbish. Yeah there were a few titles worth taking a punt on but the vast majority saw non-appealing discounts and the lack of super cheap pocket money games was noticeable.
We can forget about all that now though as the Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale for 3rd-9th July 2018 is now in place and it is bringing a whole new range of discounts to both Xbox One and Xbox 360 players. Want to check out the full list of games on sale?"
Several of these games have been on GWG, Slime Rancher and Super Mega Baseball 2. Others are on Gamepass. There is an Anime sale going on with up to 75% off. Fifa 18 at just 15quid, although I'll wait until it's in the EA Access Vault and get it for free.
Favorite Character.
That's how I describe this entire series. Not just Mega Man, but the EMU Review in general: Pure, unladen nostalgia
The one thing I remember the most about NES MegaMan games is that they were all brutally difficult.
9 and 10 remind me of how much I suck at video games that are difficult, and that I could never reach Wiley, even when I was young.
