JEEZE, Mega Man 9 is hard...

Archive: 23 posts


Like, incredibly hard... Yet, for some reason is just calls for me, over and over again... What a masochist, eh? It's so awesome though. The one thing I like most about it is the music! For being 8-bit bleeps and bloops it really is amazing. Sooo, SO catchy. Now, to give it time until an ocremix.org mix is out... Or a remix by someone else. 2008-09-30 10:40:00

Yeah I have the collections of Mega Man and they are hard. Too bad they don't make games as hard as they use to. Like I noticed people excpect checkpoints on LBP, whatever happened to the enjoyment of when you die you start over, Mario was like this, you die it starts over to the start of the level. People are weak now and expect save points now.2008-09-30 17:12:00

Yep. Thing is though, on LBP you're counting on your teammates, so THEY might use up all your lives even if you're really good. I suppose that's why there's lots of checkpoints there. :]

Yeah I agree with that, but I don't think you always need to add checkpoints in the level because you can make it hard for the team. But I do agree with you.

When I'm playing LBP online I want a reasonably quick return to the action, I don't like sitting around for several minutes watching other people play.

This, too.

But anyway, it's fine if you make like, a single-player level or something. It's fine on Mega Man... Gives it a good challenge. Yes, the checkpoints are a bit far off, but that's what makes it old-school!

I downloaded the MEGA MAN 9 demo. It is extremely difficult. There aren't nearly enough abilities to dodge those friggin owls, or whatever the heck they are! Really old games are very hard. I can't beat any of my Sega Genesis games. It's probably because modern games give you more abilities that make the game easier. So it's still the same difficulty, but more abilities are there to make it more doable. 2008-10-14 01:08:00

lol. watch it. love it.


and yes. it is extremely hard. i bought it outright, no trying the demo. huge megaman fan. had the first one when it first came out. thought i'd be good at it from years of playing the others. apparently i just knew the levels so well that it became easy.
10 years from NOW i'll probably be really good at megaman 9, lol

I've tried various Mega Man games through the years. I could never get into them. As one reviewer said over Mega Man 9, it's an exercise in level memorization, not actual skill. And now that I watch through that video recently posted...yeah. Not my kind of game. I like stressing adaptability in games. Not insane levels of memorization that don't actually do any good if the thing completely switches up on you.2008-10-14 01:27:00

but that is how megaman has always been. extreme memorization.
the newer ones are just too **** easy. it is good to see 9 keeping to it's roots in being bat-as* hard.
i dunno, i still love it. can't play it for more than about 20 min at a time, but i'm getting to bosses now where i wasn't before. haha

Man, gamers nowadays have gone soft. XD

Anyway, GAH, I'm stuck at Dr. Wily's Castle. DAAAMN. I'm gonna need like 10 Energy Tanks and 20 lives.

I hate this game!!!!! It is way to hard and there is no point, for me, for going back for more. It is way too hard and I die like every few seconds which is the reason why I hate it so much2008-10-14 04:44:00

It's hard for a game to be frustratingly difficult and incredibly addictive at the same time but Megaman pulls it off.2008-10-14 04:56:00

Megaman games aren't hard, it's just most of the games we play nowadays are too easy. :/


For example, go into the arcade and play Donkey Kong, you'll see what I mean.

Also, as a note, I do like Megaman, it's just not my favorite game ever.

This.

Anyway, I beat it. I had to buy 9 lives and 9 E-Tanks, but I beat it. :] No easy task, though... 2:20 hours. WOOOO!! That was fun. ;D!!

Wasn't Megaman always crazily difficult. With those evil bosses that take hours cause they just keep killing you and you have to repeat the entire level that was hard enough anyway.2008-10-14 07:49:00

I agree.

Most things we play nowadays ARE too easy.

MM9 is absolutely grand, and is challenging, sure, but I personally thought it coulda been harder.

Even "Hero mode", once I got that, wasnt enough. Im hoping Superhero difficulty is crazier, but I dont have that yet.


Absolutely excellent game though. I think I've played through it some 6 times already. I keep also trying to do a Time Attack of Galaxy Man's stage in under 2 minutes, but Im at 2:01 now cause he wont hold the heck still......

MM9 is definitely a good visit to the past when gaming was very pure. I love hard games such as these although I'm hoping superhero mode can really put the hurt on.

Also, Protoman is pretty meh in this game. I was expecting more, but his cons outweight his pros.
