Let's Play: The Megaman Megathread! MM&B King 1+2 (Bass) + CD Reading (Fixed)!
Hello everybody and welcome to the Megaman Megathread Let's Play. What is this? It's a fantabulous thread wherein I shall be playing many Megaman games and if anyone else wants to, they can join in as well. What shall I be doing my best to play?
Well first off there's this series.
Then there's this.
And then finally, there's this.
I'll be trying to play as many of the games in these series as I can but there's a ton of them. There's 9 old style megaman games (I can't do Megaman 8), 8 X games (I can only do 1-3), and 4 Zero games. So as I said earlier, anyone is free to participate and take a game. It will take me a while to finish each game so if there's one I haven't done, just claim it and then make a video. The only ones I'd really like to do myself are Megaman X1 and Zero 1. If you want to claim Megaman 2, go ahead. I won't stop you. However I highly recommend uploading your video somewhere where everyone can see it. If you're doing stage 6, please try uploading to google or dailymotion as well. Oh and also, don't wuss out. If you pick a game, finish it. Don't start Zero 2 if you can't finish it.
Also, Viewers will pick the next boss to defeat if possible. We're making this more interactive!
Anyway, let's get started!
PLEASE SCROLL DOWN TO MY NEXT POST ON THIS PAGE TO SEE THE ZERO SERIES AND THE COMPLETED GAMES LIST.
Videos! These are currently active series. For easy navigating, I shall be arranging them by series.
MegaMari for some reason. Player: Shady3011's Roommate (H) with Shady harassing him!
Note: I reserve the right at any time to completely abandon this thread due to Megaman overload. I won't quit mid-game though.
Original post: Yeah ZX would be nice but I certainly can't do it. It would be a nice break considering how I'm going through Advent's Hard Mode right now.
It might be, depending on how good you are at the game itself and if you can be funny/provide neat information. You could always try and buy a cheap microphone though. I use some $20 headset I got to play MGS3 Online with. Works great except I have to be careful about the mute button.
I think my favorite part of MMX is the fact that they pretty much obviously wanted Zero to be the main character and then didn't for branding issues. I am glad that he got his shot in the GBA games though.
Maybe around Christmas I'll do a standard LP on the two extreme games. Those are pretty kickin' and are easily the most technologically advanced GBC games released.
One of your challenges should be to do a level while commenting as Megaman from Captain N.

I completely forgot to mention how Zero was originally going to be the main character. Darn.
Also I'd have to watch more of Captain N to get a feel for it. Since megaman is a boy in blue armor, I have to get the feeling of being a fat kid in a green superhero suit that for some reason has super strength.
Pata since you're the only vote so far, it looks like I may end up doing Boomer. It's not that I hate him but what makes him hard in this run is I don't have dash so just dodging the lasers in his level will be hard. I also almost always fight him with the torpedo so I'm not very experienced at fighting him. Should be fun.
The bats are specifically from Megaman 2, even though they show up in other levels.
I'll vote for sting chameleon.

Mega man X!?
Boomer Kuwanger is the guy's name. Turns out that this name is actually Japanese for cockroach, so let's all be thankful of Capcom's practical thinking when translating this game so we don't have to say 'Boomer Cockrocah.'
I vote for Spark Mandrill next, I've never fought him without the WARNING! BOSS WEAKNESS SPOILER!
ice shotgun
and I want to see how the fight goes without using his weakness.
btw, it's X-buster, not mega buster. The mega buster is obsolete now!
EDIT: Whoops, scratch my above vote, didn't see the entire video before posting. So I'll just change my vote to Boomer Kuwanger. heh, wanger.
I always beat all the bosses with the buster and then use their weaknesses on them when you fight them again.
Fuck Shadow Man.
Well, Shadow Man is pretty much the hardest boss to fight without his weakness in any of the Megaman games. Fuck, if your timing sucks he isn't that easy with the top spin!
If there's three Mega Man games that I felt were done 'wrong', it was Mega Man X6-8. I try to ignore them (I'm also not counting Command Mission or the Battle Network games, which I also ignore).
Every other MM is gravy, though. The nine originals, 5 X games, 4 Zero games, 2 ZX games, hell even the Game Boy games were good.
Doesn't Launch Octopus' stage affect Sting Chameleon's? I thought beating it put water in Sting Chameleon's stage, although I don't remember what affect that actually had on the gameplay.

It made it possible to get that stage's heart tank - also, it made the armor power-up mini-boss lose one of its attacks (I think). And it made those little bug things skate on the water.
When I use to play I would play Chill Penguine first. He was the easiest for me.
Boomer was My weakness also.... That's why I vote for him, I hate him. Beat him for me!

But I've never played X1 so I have no idea what any of them are like so I'm mostly just voting on a "work clockwise around the board starting at the bottom" mentality.

Actually that's not quite right. His name is derived from the Japanese word for stag beetle or something like that (kuwagata I think), not cockroach. (The boomerang on his head is designed to resembles the pincers after all!)
Not that Boomer Stag Beetle is any less of a mouth full than Boomer Cockroach, so that part still stands. :P

And I thought MM2's box art was horrid.
I can't wait for Megaman 2. That's my personal favourite.

Megaman series.
Megaman 2! Player: -SPI-!
Quickman. Quickman is a fast robot. He's trying to get help. Part 1! Part 2!
Crashman. I'm not calling it Clashman. I calls em like I sees em and I sees an "r".
Heatman. That extra life in that one section is such a dick move. I love it. Part 1! Part 2!
Woodman. Why would you make a wood robot? It's like that episode of Futurama with the primitive robots.
Flashman. Don't look under his coat. It's not a pretty sight.
Airman. He likes to put on airs.
Bubbleman. Waterfalls are the devil's gift to movie makers.
Wily 1. Awesome music.

Boss Rush and Wily 1. Those bouncing shots Wily uses really suck.
Wily Defeated and The End! Why does blood drip down anyway?

[vidurl="http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=140282736181445363"]Intermission. BREAK TIME. RUB IT! Okay not really. I just wanted to use a FTM joke.[/vidurl]

Waveman and Crystalman. Wave Crystal sounds like it could be an RPG spell.
Napalmman. Only trained professionals may handle him.
Chargeman. He enjoys the occasional credit card purchase.
Starman and Stoneman. You are not invincible in Starman's stage, so be aware of that.
Protoman's Castle 1 and 2. It's just a prototype so dangers abound.
Protoman's Castle 3 and 4. The end?!
Wily 1 and 2. Come on now, you didn't really believe Protoman was evil right?
Wily 3 and 4. All done!
Megaman 6! Player: Tcheldor!
Plantman. AKA, Axl Rose: The Early Years.
Knightman. He fights to save the non-existent princess because there's like 1 female in all of the original Megaman series and she's a maid. Kind of creepy actually.
Yamatoman. He's the long lost samurai pizza cat.
Centaurman. Tunnel Rhino's little brother if you go by his picture on the stage select screen.
Windman and Tomahawkman. Flying high above the sky Or Cowboys and Injuns.

Megaman X series.
Megaman X1! The Challenge Run! Player: Gilder!
Boomer Kuwanger. Feel the power of microphone shuffling noises!
Sting Chameleon. Can YOU catch the Blazing Saddles joke?
Spark Mandrill. For a power plant, this level sure has some faulty lighting.
Flame Mammoth. Miners? In MY factory that for some reason has lava where all my workers can step right into it?
Double feature. Launch Octopus and Storm Eagle. You know, the airport is a pretty empty level.
Chill Penguin. In which I get dash and find religion.
Sigma's Fortress 1. What the hell would possess somebody to make a robot spider? We don't even want normal ones.
Sigma's Fortress 2. Here's looking at you, kid.
Sigma's Fortress 3. FUCK THIS BOSS. Tank boss uncut.
Sigma Final. Sigma is defeated. Do not fight him without armor. It is insanity. Part 1! Part 2!
Bonus video. It's not perfect by any means but some parts synched up so well I was cool with it.
Megaman X2! Player: Gilder!
Wheel Gator. Making some Megaman Gumbo.
Overdrive Ostrich. Pow-pow-powerwheels!
X-Hunters and Crystal Snail. This video was a trainwreck before I edited it. I spent way too much time in Flame Stag trying to make a dumb jump. Part 1! Part 2!
Flame Stag and Wire Sponge. What the hell is Wire Sponge?
Bubble Crab and Morph Moth. AKA, Citizen Snips and.... I don't have another Futurama reference. Part 1! Part 2!
Item time! It's just music but try and spot the point where I completely forgot where an item was.
Sigma 1! I'm crushing you with my walls. Nyah hah hah.
Sigma 2! We know a list, and in July, video links grow there.
Sigma 3. I suck at jumps, blah blah whatever. Too pissed off right now to be funny.
Sigma 4. Let's do the Boss Rush agaaaaaaaaain.
Sigma 5. The End. Bye everyone! Part 1! Part 2!
Pata's videos.
Magna Centipede. It's magnanimously magnanimous!
Megaman X3! Player: Hylianbunny!
We have a winner for fastest intermission video ever made folks! This was actually made before the first video even encoded! Let's give a round of applause to Hylianbunny! For some reason Hylianbunny really likes his Power Rangers! Another video!
Tunnel Rhino. Little known fact, but rhino's are actually cave dwellers. They feed on mud.
Crush Crawfish. I've always wondered why that reactor thing has a giant button on it.
Blizzard Buffalo. I bet he has the the coldest wings in the world.
Neon Tiger. NEON NIGHTRIDERS.
Blast Hornet. Blast! Foiled again!
Little bonus video. Let's play X3 as Zero in non-Zero areas!
Toxic Seahorse. This boss is a lesson in waste disposal safety.
Normal bosses go bye. X is such a murderer.
Doppler 1. X invades channel 9's TV station to stop Doppler from predicting weather.
Doppler 2. You know what I love? Walls of spikes. Don't you love them too?
Boss Rush. It's really more of a music video if you ask me. Are you asking me? The weaknesses version.
Doppler 3. Actually, the boss rush was the majority of the stage. This is not a music video though and is the actual Doppler fight.
Sigma. Beware his bug-spray. The end? Maybe.
Megaman X4! Player: Fig-D!

Gravity Antonion. I'm calling him Antoine and there's nothing he can do about it. Part 1! Part 2!
Pandamonium. HUR HUR IT'S LIKE PANDA AND PANDEMONIUM. Part 1! Part 2!
Burn Rooster. Capcom is more of a Charizard company than a Blaziken company. Part 1! Part 2!
Central White. Nothing warms me up quite as much as a vehicle level in an X game. Doesn't everyone just love vehicle levels in action games? Part 1! Part 2!
Dynasty. They actually managed to get the words Man-O-War into a boss name. Part 1! Part 2!
Pitch Black. In which a boss sort of trying to sound like Solid Snake is defeated.
Troia Base. Obviously a flower robot's stage gimmick is a VR Mini-game stage. Obviously.
Metal Valley. Don't walk around this place barefoot. There be metal in this valley after all.
Item Collection. In which Peter Lorre is fought. Wait, that can't be right.
The Elevator. Imagine having to ride it to work every day. No wonder Lumine went evil.
Boss Rush. In a Megaman X game? Well I never. Part 1! Part 2!

Megaman Zero 1! Player: Gilder!
Aztec Falcon. Aztec? Capcom really thought of the word Aztec? I'm..... impressed.
Train Destruction. Choo-choooooo!
Occupying the factory. Higher wages for all!
Retrieving some data. Truly, Ganesh is the best guard for computer data.
Finding a shuttle and killing Anubis. Take THAT Egyptian God! Not so tough now are you?!
Fefnir. BURN TO THE GROUND.
Harpuia. He's the honorable one, because he has swords. Swords are honorable. It's just logic.
Phantom. In which I kill some ninja dogs.
Blizzack Staggwolff. When I'm going down the spike cave, imagine if that went on for 5 minutes. There is a level exactly like that in a later game.
Leviathan. Dot dot? Dot dot dot. Dot dot dot dot dot? DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT!
Hanumachine. Pokemon totally ripped this guy off.
Neo Arcadia Shrine. I can't believe I actually died on that one mid-boss. He wasn't even hard. At all. I just sucked at judging which blade would come back first.
Neo Arcadia Tower. The level designers realized the game had too few spikes so they shoved them all in one level.
Neo Arcadia Core: Boss Rush. It's like a music video. Sorry if the sound isn't all that great, I really can't tell on my end.
Neo Arcadia Core: The End. The truth of the strange cyber-elf revealed!
Note: I reserve the right at any time to completely abandon this thread due to Megaman overload. I won't quit mid-game though.
Original post: Yeah ZX would be nice but I certainly can't do it. It would be a nice break considering how I'm going through Advent's Hard Mode right now.
If I had a microphone I'd so do one.
...would subtitles added to the video be OK. <.<
Edit: Dailymotion mirror of X1 up.
Also, do Boomer Kwanger next.
Ahahahah you hate him?
Yes, do it.
Maybe around Christmas I'll do a standard LP on the two extreme games. Those are pretty kickin' and are easily the most technologically advanced GBC games released.
One of your challenges should be to do a level while commenting as Megaman from Captain N.
I just wish I had a way of recording gameplay or I'd totally do it

Well, Shadow Man is pretty much the hardest boss to fight without his weakness in any of the Megaman games. Fuck, if your timing sucks he isn't that easy with the top spin!
Every other MM is gravy, though. The nine originals, 5 X games, 4 Zero games, 2 ZX games, hell even the Game Boy games were good.
I vote for Boomer Kuwanger.
I predict rage.
When I got this for the PC and eventually got the Hadouken at the end, I called my friend and told him I broke the game.
He didn't believe me.
Let 'em eat fucking pineapples!
Hilarious!

This should be a very entertaining LP, especially since you're not using dash. I've never played the game without dash, but it looks a lot harder.
Boomer was My weakness also.... That's why I vote for him, I hate him. Beat him for me!
But I've never played X1 so I have no idea what any of them are like so I'm mostly just voting on a "work clockwise around the board starting at the bottom" mentality.

Agreed. Story wise it's also the first armor you can get.
Kudos on making the game harder though Gilder.
Godspeed.
Also he has the best stage music and I dare anyone to prove me wrong.
Here's a vote for Sting Chameleon. Because I've NEVER beaten him without his weakness. Oh my god, I hate him so much.
