    I can't even get past the highway sub-boss on expert in ZXA. The one that spins and destroys stuff. I cannot kill it. On normal I had no problem but on expert it just does not take the shield down when you can reach it. Yeah Capcom, I can really fire shots at it while I'm jumping over pits and it's spinning things to absorb the shots.

    Cloud Man has been given us the eye for long enough. Kill him.

    I shall second Freeze. Because why not.

    Also I feel I should mention that the music for the first Wily stage in MM7 is one of my favorite Megaman songs. It's a tune I don't think anybody really remembers though.

    I third Freeze because of a certain Rush part that should prove to be hilarious.

    Why does this stage have no flora? This boss makes no sense. Stage 7 - Troia Base

    Go ahead and pick the next boss guys. It sure to be a brain buster. ;-)

    Are you the guy on the Mega Man design team who always decides to stick 'em in there? Because if so, I think you should be shot.

    Repeatedly.

    In the face.

    For Megaman VII, my vote's for Cloud Man next -- just because that's about the least threatening name I can imagine. Might as well call him "Snuggle Man" or "Lovey Bun-Bun Man".

    Use model FX to punch the blue spinners out of the way, or preferably into the mini-boss. It should leave an opening next time it drops its shield. Be quick though, since it will replace any lost spinners eventually.

    Well that explains why I'd never be able to beat it. I never use Model FX. The only ones I ever use are normal, the air-dashing one, the ninja, and ZX. All the others I never even touch except for when I have to use them.

    I've never beaten an entire Mega Man game in my life (despite attempting so many of them...), so thank all of you for doing this so I can sort of pretend that I've played them all through.

    Model F messes up Queenbee hardcore thanks to the directional shots. It's also invaluable in the Highway stage since you can just have it aim up and go to town on the bombers.

    Quickman, a minor trainwreck presented in two acts.
    Act 1: Where I fail to record the game audio.

    So by way of apology I'll vote for Crashman this time.

    If so, I'll also vote for Crash Man, since he's the only MM2 boss I can't beat without the appropriate weapon (Ait Shooter).

    Fighting giant mechs is one of X's favorite hobbies. Stage 8 - Metal Valley

    Semi off topic but it IS Mega Man related so I thought it should be posted in here. The Rockman 20th Anniversary Rock Arrangement album was released in Japan recently and I have to say everyone here should track it down for a listen because it is made of rock and awesome. You can order it online from Play Asia using the following link: http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-8l-77-4-49-en-70-2bh2.html

    I think it's safe to say, this Let's Play is still a long ways from being complete. Maybe over the winter break I'll try to figure out how to get the NES hooked up and do Megaman 1.

    I wish I had one. next time I spend money on pc parts (may be sooner than originally planned) I'm gonna grab one for future LPs, and just for myself. hopefully I have something that hasn't been done that I'm actually able to play well at that point :D.

    I was hoping Gilder would do that one, though, if only for Yellow Devil. Well, that and the platforms from Gutsman's stage, which he would have to do first, naturally. :twisted:
