That was a great article! I can't believe how much Mega Man looks like a crash dummy.

Syd did a wonderful job of tricking me, and I actually was told how awful the pc games were by a friend. Seems he was right, but the MM5 Wave Man seriously kicks the shit out of the Wave Man in this.....hell even the Powered Up Oil Man is better then the PC Oil Man and that's saying something.

Oh, THAT Mega Man 3! I thought you were trying to start a war or something.
I think I owned Mega Man for PC. 3 robot masters. That says it all.
EDIT: "Mega Man has just one himself an all expenses paid trip to Skull Castle". Should be "won".

Great new article! A lot of fun to read, and I loved all the extras. Definitely one of your best.

I loved playing that game when I was 9, but if Mega Man wasn't on the cover I probably never would have gone near it.

They should also apologize for taking the Mega Buster and slide out of the new Mega Man game, and then put them back in.

Ten years ago, maybe even five, I don't think I could possibly have brought myself to say that title. What a disgrace. Hi-Tech Expressions sucks.

Like most others, i thought that was a nice "Gotcha". Damn that mega man 3 game looks shits&giggles terrible. There are probably rom hack more innovated then that ipecac. Great jarb on the article, another winner for the books.

I liked the little quiz. Bit Man, Wave Man, Oil Man, and Shark Man were completely obvious. But did anyone think that Mega Man looks seriously f'ed up on the stage select screen?

The company that ported this for PC (Hi Tech Expressions) was/is the same company that made the Barbie games for SNES and Genesis.

Which, going by Seanbaby's list, is only half as bad as the NES Barbie game.
I'd have mentoned the latter sooner, but my computer crapped out on me FOR THE TEN MILLIONTH FUCKING TIME right at the exact instant I clicked on Post Reply.

This is one of those early 90's DOS games that make me want to vomit.
And yes, Our pal Mega looks really fucked up.

I like his select portrait, where he looks like he has a lazy eye.

Yes, that's the one I was talking about. He has a lazy eye, one eye is bigger than the other, his mouth looks weird...it just looks horrendous.

My previous phone was a Motorola, and they had this program Motorola Phone Tools, that let you turn any mp3, or any part of an mp3, into a ringtone.
On my current phone, I use third party software of questionable legality.

Syd,
On a 10 point scale of pain where
1 = a small cut
and
10 = having a limb chopped off, passing a kidney stone, and having fire ants put in your nose
How much did it hurt to have to go through this entire game?

I wonder if Syd made that article to see if the AVGN or anyone from screwattack would swipe the idea from him.
