[Let's Play] Mega Man 9

Because no one else has done it, and I am probably the least qualified, I will be playing Mega Man 9 for ya'll's enjoyment. Pre-emptive apologies all around for my general suckitude, hopefully that just makes it more fun though. I used up all my creative juices on my screenshot LPs, so without further ad, Meg Man 9, as played by someone really bad at it:

    Tornado Man gets my vote for the next stage

    You mention input lag. Do you mean the lag while capturing, or the same kind of control lag I felt while playing the MM10 demo on PS3?

    The former, it plays very smoothly normally, it's just running the video through my pc gives like a .2 second delay to things. Which makes me even worse than normal. I could fix this by splitting the video, except that my monitor actually is my tv, so that's a bit unfeasible for now.

    I usually try and get bees as early as possible, because:

    1. Bees let you get all the hard to reach 1ups in all the stages, so you have a full load when entering Dr. Wily's Castle
    2. Bees are an awesome replacement for mega buster in many situations.

    Hornet man is pretty tough, though. I start out with magma man (my recommendation for second), who is a little easier, then hornet is a cakewalk.

    Edit: As a bonus, your black holes will run that fire dragon's face.

    There's a difference? Not that it would matter, since a 360 is the only next gen console I own.

  • cooljammer00cooljammer00 Cleaning at Your Mom's HouseRegistered User regular
    Well I think it's the general d-pad complaint.

  • Xenogears of BoreXenogears of Bore Registered User regular
    It's really weird to think this but yes, the Wii version is visually superior to the other two because the game was designed around running in 480i. It looks a bit murky on the other two. Also both the Classic Controller and even the Wii Remote on its side are better controllers for this game.

    Oh. Heh.
    I was playing using the control stick.

  • cooljammer00cooljammer00 Cleaning at Your Mom's HouseRegistered User regular
    Ugh, I was playing the MM10 demo on PS3. Using the analog stick is mushy and gives you no control.

    Well Kayne you are official better than me at this game as I've yet to even defeat a single boss...I should really remedy this. You are actually kind of inspirational to me.

    Probably my favorite thing about Mega Man is that it is balls hard. However! If you are persistent enough, you can actually see yourself improving. Just be patient and don't give up. Like I said in the video, I find Galaxy Man to be a really good starting place, so maybe try him first.

    Take care of Splash Woman and Jewel Man early. Most of the weapons in this game are useful, but theirs are the best.

    poasting something foolishly foolish.
  • cooljammer00cooljammer00 Cleaning at Your Mom's HouseRegistered User regular
    Arrgh, I remember hating that bubble jumping puzzle. Just underwater levels in general.

    If you were cool you'd play with just the buster and only switch when a weapon is necessary.

  • Kayne Red RobeKayne Red Robe Registered User regular
    Sure. But then I'd never beat the game. I'm not going to go around using special weapons all the time, but if they're going to make life easier then I'm using them.

    Set your Xbox to 480P or something, the picture is too squished.

    I guess someone had to play it. Next time I'll be sure not to be too lazy, but that sounds like a lot of work.

    Also, Snake Man is Mega Man 3.

    That's my excuse for just about everything, and it seems to work fine for me.

    Voting Hornet Man. Because I've never played this game. Also:

    I played the MM10 demo, and I felt that Capcom sucks at picking a demo stage. Both MM9 and MM10's demo stages seem oddly hard for you to run through with only your buster

    all i know

    is that I am stuck at Wiley's castle. And I will never ever be able to get all the way through it.

    Yet that is exactly what i see here.
  • RedThornRedThorn Registered User regular
    I don't know if it's Schadenfreude or what, but for some reason I find watching people who are terrible at a game very entertaining. Also, I don't know if you were aware of it but the audio from your commentary seemed to be a little bit ahead of the video.

    Yeah, I enjoy it too, which is why I thought this would be a fun change of pace. I am aware of the audio problems, and am working on a fix.

    The third stage is pure evil. And Wily isn't exactly fun. Still: super fun game, I fully endorse the comic.

    My cousin made this game: Gem Pop. It's legitimately fun, particularly for people who enjoy Bejewled, Dr. Mario, Tetris, etc. kinds of games. Only two bucks! If you try it out, PM me with what you think of it.

    I've gotten to Wily a lot, but I can never beat him before I need to quit, meaning that I have to do the whole castle again.

    I haven't forgotten about this thread, Youtube has just been being a pain. Part 2 may still be processing for a bit longer.

    Part 2, because fuck Youtube.

    So... part 3 just... ends?

    o_O

  • Kayne Red RobeKayne Red Robe Registered User regular
    I ran out of Hard Drive space, will record another attempt once I successfully get these videos working ('tube still rejecting part 2 despite it being exactly the same number of frames as part 1, argh).

    Edit: Also, I did say I would post any Train Wrecks, which I think this counts as.

  • FelixSomethingSomethingFelixSomethingSomething Registered User regular
    Youtube thinks part 2 is 19:30. Shrug

    Bleh. Maybe in some Mega Man games, but not this one. The master weapons are way too useful and fun to toss aside altogether.

    This. Plus considering what I've seen from the videos some of the MM9 bosses would tear the LPer a new one going Buster only.

  • Kayne Red RobeKayne Red Robe Registered User regular
    They're going to tear me a new one anyways. I am uploading part 2 to Viddler, because even after I shortened it Youtube thinks it is too long, I don't know what the fuck.

  • Kayne Red RobeKayne Red Robe Registered User regular
    Alright, part two is up on Viddler and edited in. Bedtime now.

    I am both alive and continuing this, my time has been a bit curtailed recently and both my LPs are suffering from it, for which I am very apologetic. I'll try to get another set up within the next few days.

    Can you fix it so the video's not so narrow? You should just be able to set your xbox to 480P.
