Mega Man

[Storm]

And that is why I play on an emulator One keystroke puts me right back at the start of the fight.

I don't possess the mental discipline to use an emulator. I'm too tempted to save the game state midway through battles and constantly reload if I get damaged. This is how I originally "defeated" Neo-Exdeath in Final Fantasy V.

I really should download 9 or 10 from PSN. Are they worth it at all, or just nostalgia-strokes?

I think they are both worth downloading. They definitely aren't as good as Mega Man 2 or 3, but they're still pretty fun.

I've finished all the 8 bit Megaman games, and X1 and X2. I've gotten towards the end in Megaman 7 and Megaman X3 as well. All the other megaman games, I haven't tried yet.

You should try Mega Man X5 and Mega Man & Bass. Those are two great games. However, stay away from Mega Man X6 at all costs, unless you want to risk putting your fist through your television screen.

I really wonder about the mentality of those who feel that you're not really playing the game unless you have it set to the absolutely most ridiculous difficulty to the point that it's controller-breakingly difficult.

My older brother used to always tell me as a kid "You haven't finished the game until you finish it on the hardest difficulty setting". I suppose I've just continued to adapt that mentality over the years.
