Get equipped…with retro greatness!
In anticipation of Megaman 9’s release, I blew through MM2 and MM3 the week before. Despite the fact that I hadn’t played them in years, I completed them without much effort. Shocking for me, since when I was younger, they both caused me great angst, cursing, and controller throwing. And yet, here I am, crushing both of them with the expertise of a speed runner. I was worried; was Megaman truly not the great challenge I once thought it to be? And will the same translate into the 9th edition? My fears really became heightened when I first began playing Megaman 9. I began with Galaxy Man’s stage, since I had heard through the grapevine that he was the “first” boss that should be conquered. I sped through the stage and downed Galaxy Man on the first try. Without losing a single life. Now I had real doubts about the “challenge” that MM9 was going to deliver.
