Another Look At MMPU
The Mega Man Homepage has reviewed Mega Man Powered Up. Why do I bother to mention this? Why do I care? I just find it interesting to see what opinions one of the longer online fans(if not longest in purely online time, hers was the first fanpage if I'm not mistaken)...
Tearing Down Powered Up
Looks like gelgameth managed to beat me to the punch by just a bit. No matter. So, thanks to my wife and her boss, we have ourselves a nice new copy of Mega Man Powered Up(and what was the preorder for that became my means of getting Tetris DS, FTR). And it's a pretty...
TransSpam
So, I'm going through The Mega Man Network's news submission e-mail box, which has become little more than the internet's lint trap for spam these days, and I noticed something about a number of the senders. They were all named after TransFormers, Autobots. Except for...
Lazy Muncie
Thanks to zk273 for linking me to this. I didn't think Muncie, Indiana was quite far enough to be "midwest," though. The appearance by Jim Davis was awesome, though. As a kid, I always wanted to go to Muncie and visit Paws, Inc. Still wouldn't mind someday... LBD...
What I’d Like To See…
As posted on MMNC. A few secret characters I'd like to see show up in Mega Man Powered Up(slight spoiler behind the cut) "Mega Man?" The evil version... just for the hell of it. Viewtiful Joe: Hell, he's already got the head for it, and it'd be cool to use some VFX...
HERE COMES THE PAIN.
Behold. The CDi intros and endings for their Zelda games. Watch at your own risk. Interestingly enough, according to Guard Convoy who posted this at The Allspark, the gameplay is surprisingly solid despite some silly mechanics, like one-hit bosses(with the right...
Mega Mutterings
Ok, just read the manual for MMPU(waiting for Red to get home before I play, just in case). I can't believe the booklet calls Rock "Mega." I could understand it in the game, given they seemed to have a miscommunication in translation. They seemed to know it was...
I thought this was kind of funny.
Has it really been 12 years already?? Well, congrats to one of my favorite Sonic characters. LBD "Nytetrayn"
It’s funny…
Re-reading Game Over, a book chronicling the history of the video game industry, and Nintendo in particular, it's interesting to see how so many years ago, much of what they held true seems to hold up today, including the same philosophies they're following through on...
AYBABTU
Wow, can you believe it's been five years of All Your Base already? This is a nift little tribute. And if that's not your thing, maybe you'd like Donkey Kong Country 1 1/2 better. Within, you'll discover the ultimate fate of King K. Rool. No, really! LBD...
It just occured to me.
Animal Crossing is almost like some sort of big Mary-Sue game. LBD "Nytetrayn"
Grand Theft Bono
U2 singer Bono Moves In Mysterious Ways as he spends One Sunday Bloody Sunday at War in the City of Blinding Lights running a Red Light, jacking cars, running over a hookerthe Angel of Harlem named Miss Sarajevo Where The Streets Have No Name, and getting some Hot...
Hate to love it, love to hate it.
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga is a good game. But it's not quite as polished as Super Mario RPG, I find. Close, but no donut. I've really only two real issues so far with the game. One is the lack of save points. They're just a bit too far apart for a portable game, I...
A Super Mario Story
Pretty nift Mario Flash movie. The drawn style looks really good. While I'm at it, some other funny ones: Super Mario Bros. Bloopers Super Mario Bros. 2 Bloopers(kinda NSFW) Super Mario Bros. 3 Bloopers LBD "Nytetrayn"
Chibi Robo
Chibi Robo has me curious to try. Anyone else? LBD "Nytetrayn"
Flaws in MHX
Going through Hard mode with X, I've noticed a few flaws in the game. Whether they were put/left there deliberately or not, who can say. One is wonky item physics. I destroyed some enemies for a much-needed energy capsule on a conveyor belt, and as it went up part of...
You Get: Maverick Hunter X(spoilers)
So, the remake of all remakes has arrived. The revision to make the Star Wars Special Editions look like piles of puke... ...but does it? It does. Or maybe it doesn't. *slapped* It's good, no doubt. And while it's quite similar to the Mega Man X that began on the...
Super Princess Peach
So, Super Princess Peach(Japanese page, thanks to igosplashman there) looks like just what the doctor ordered for some oldschool Mario platforming, and a pretty good holdover until New Super Mario Bros. hits. Hell, "holdover" may be an insult; it looks like the game...
I laughed.
Quote from someone regarding the story of the lost source codes for the would-be Mega Man Anniversary Collection for GBA: Just another case of Capcom kick their Megaman fans squarely in the mean bean machine. How much you wanna bet the source code for the first 3 RE...
Skarface the Klown
I'll be honest, I'm not a huge fan of The Batman. Mind, I mean THE Batman, not Batman in general. But, it's grown on me a bit. It's kind of neat in an Ultimate Marvel sort of way, though not pulled off quite as nicely. My biggest gripe is what's come to be known as...
