The Official Mega Man 9 Topic

[Xero]

You click on the link after he says OMG SCREENS OF BASE INTO ZERO LOL  and you deserve it.

When I clicked I thought he was reffering to the whole "Fake Man" thing. 

[NovaMan XP]

I tried the MM9 demo on the PS3.

It looks and sounds a little... crispier?

Yeah it is. Same with the 360 port.

[Fatso]

'Crispier'?

As in, KFC crispy?

[preventerWIND]

As in, Finger Lickin' Good KFC?

[Mikero]

AS in, tongue-to-digits finger lickin'?

Mega Man 9 Manga Translated.

[ChaosVortex]

YES.

Nice translation. I liked that.

I enjoyed seeing Guts and Concrete going at it.

[preventerWIND]

Tornado Man needed more camera.. err.. page time?

[Johncarllos]

I like Dr. Light's look there.
Leather coat and boots.
Badass.

Tornado Man had more page-time than anyone else.

[preventerWIND]

MOAR

[Vinchenz Rock]

Bleh. Rockman and Dr. Right. Makes me want to do a better translation.

[Xero]

It was perfect.

[Mikero]

Not if it said "Dr. Right".

[ASR]

I forgive the translation because that was actually #####ing badass and a great read.

If only for Wily's new get-up. Those shades, man. Those shades.

AND COSSACK. YUSS.

[Xero]

##### YEAR! 

Just got the no coffee break challenge!

[Mikero]

##### year?

Anyway, I didn't read this manga thing.

[Chron]

Oh, Mikero. You're just not up to snuff with internet trends, are you?
Comic thing was pretty meh, IMO.

Only awesome part was Dr. Cossack, and the rest of it needs to be about him taking over Russia.

[ASR]

If Dr. Coassack didn't pop up, I highly doubt I would've enjoyed it as much. His appearance tricked me into believing the entire thing was awesome, whether or not it was.

[TheRedPriest]

Not if it said "Dr. Right".

Perfect other than "Right" and "Rock Man", yes.

[ChaosVortex]

I can stand Rockman, because that's who he is.

But I've always known him as Dr. Light, and nothing else. It even sounds better than "Right".

[TheRedPriest]

I can stand Rockman, because that's who he is.

ONLY IN JAPAN LAND FRIEND.  He's Mega Man everwhere else.  I don't really have a problem with it, but at the same time, I just find it utterly retarded not to use his official English name.

[Chron]

Both names sound kind of haughty if you think about it, although "Light" is more indirect and only appears that way if you associate light with good (I don't, unless I'm trying to read).

"Dr. Light" sounds like an old 70's-80's anime professor, so it kinda fits there.
"Dr. Right" just sounds like some asshole advice columnist, not a robotics specialist.

I like the name Rockman better than Mega Man, but it's always been Mega Man to me.

[ASR]

Just downloaded all the new DLC for today.

Haven't played Hero Mode yet, but BY GOD IS SUPERHERO MODE WORTH IT.

WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS MUCH AWESOME.

So far I've only played Galaxy Man's stage, and it actually raped me. I still can't figure out the jump at the end. I mean, Galaxy Man's stage now has one of those "platforms that move up" from Concrete Man's stage. The entire level is different - more enemies, different obstacles, different obstacle layouts... man.

It's crazy.

Oh, and the new Special Stage is fantastic, too. I mean, the Wily Stage 2 boss is just a CASUAL PART OF THE STAGE. Every miniboss makes an appearance, too, even an elephant.

[Xero]

And Bass is no where to be seen correct?

[NovaMan XP]

Nope! He's nowhere.

And someone's already beaten Special Stage in an insane time, making my attempt at it look terrible! YAY!

I'm like... 30 seconds off the 10th place. Geez.

[Xero]

HOLY #####ING ##### SUPER HERO MODE FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF FF

[ChaosVortex]

I'm playing Hero Mode now. I'll play Super Hero tommorow.

I don't care for time attacks. I just played the Special Stage for fun.

[Xero]

Yeah same here.

Damn is fake man hard though.

I guess using Jewel Satelite is how you beat him?

[NovaMan XP]

He's... easy. Although he's the reason I died on the Special Stage the first time.
I used Jewel Satellite and Magma Bazooka.

[Fatso]

Alright, I suppose I'd better download this and see what all the hype is about.

[NovaMan XP]

Special Stage is good, but I hate the fact that it's a Time Attack stage, because if you mess up once you have to start all over...

I LOVE Hero Mode though, I hate that it's downloadable, but whatever.

SuperHero Mode is a bitch. I Game Over'd... on GALAXY MAN'S STAGE...

[ASR]

Just beat SuperHero Mode.

THAT IS HOW THE GAME SHOULD HAVE BEEN.

Holy #####, that's the most fun I've had in ages. Even more than my first run-through.

THAT is a MegaMan game!

[Johncarllos]

You're crazy!

[NovaMan XP]

I don't even want to KNOW what the Wily Stages are like in SuperHero mode.

I'm on them in Hero Mode, but I haven't played them yet.

[ASR]

IT WAS SO FANTASTIC.

Like, yes. So much yes.

[Mikero]

Oh, Mikero. You're just not up to snuff with internet trends, are you?

Not an accident.
Helps keep the tasty morsel of sanity I have left.

[Xero]

Splash Woman:  Alot of those mine things in the level.  Gets kinda annoying.
Concrete Man:  FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
Galaxy Man:  FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
Jewel Man:  Not so bad, though some parts are tricky
Plug Man:  Again not so bad. 
Tornado Man:  Surprisingly easy.
Magma Man:  Very annoying with the tower flame enemies.
Hornetman:  Another easy stage.

[ChaosVortex]

Magma Man:  Very annoying with the tower flame enemies.

Totems? You mean Totems right?

[Xero]

I don't think they are totems exactly.

But call it what you will.

[ChaosVortex]

Internet* says Fire Totem.

*Wikipedia.

[Xero]

Don't totems have multiple faces on them?

[Chron]

Yes and no.
A totem can be just about anything, but a totem pole usually has at least one face on it.

[Xero]

Well anyway Wily stages.

Stage 1:  FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
Stage 2:  FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
Stage 3:  FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
Stage 4:  Easy as pie.

[ChaosVortex]

Just finished Superhero mode.

That wasn't hard at all.

In all seriousness, I agree with ASR a little bit. Some parts of SH mode should've been in the actual games. Other times, it got WAY too predictable.

[Captain Sanoguchi]

#####in' Fake Man!
I'm never going to see him...

[NovaMan XP]

Just finished Superhero mode.

That wasn't hard at all.

In all seriousness, I agree with ASR a little bit. Some parts of SH mode should've been in the actual games. Other times, it got WAY too predictable.

...really?

If its not hard, at LEAST admit it's #####ing cheap. Alot.

I'm at the Wily Stages now in SuperHero mode...

[ChaosVortex]

... Any word on the press kits?

I need to know whether or not one's coming in the mail soon so I don't kill Capcom employees by accident.

[NovaMan XP]

Assume they're never coming.

So if they do you'll be relieved instead of pissed when they don't.

[TheRedPriest]

If you haven't got one and you've not got anything but the "backorder" email, you're not getting one.  At least not unless they make more.  Which they didn't seem to indicate they would.

[Xero]

Some more from the MM9, MM1 beat each other up thing.
