Blowing away all the stupid fucking spiked turtles on 4-1 Megaman don't play that shit

My runs
All Underground - Bill once you get the fire flower nothing can stop you
Castles - Megaman - his attacks are fantastic against Bowser
All speed runs - Samus - is there nothing ball can't do!
4-1 Bill with Scatershot. Big FUCK YOU to the fucking turtles.

Bill's power-ups turn him into an engine of destruction though. Overall, Megs just seems the best for most things. He doesn't really have any weak points.

Simon's a lot more fun in underground levels where you can just completely obliterate all the bricks in his path. He's so damn slow though, even when I do well with him, I find myself running out of time.

Hmm... yeah, I misremembered Bill and Megaman. Link's boomerang and sword stuns, though (regardless of how many power ups), and Simon's whip and axes stun. Not guns, true, buuut.

Also, nothing stuns Bowser, and Samus's limited range in her unpowered form makes the only enemies you really care if they get stunned a lot harder to kill. Even Simon has an easier time due to the axes if you stand in the right spot.

Also, Megs weakness is his jumps. He's got the worst jump power (good control, though), and he can't run for extra distance/height like Mario.

And he can't duck.

If you don't run out of time trying. Is it just me who totally suck at bomb jumping?

Anyway, this game is more fantastic than anything I've ever dreamed of. (Exaggeration.) Trying to use Link's air attacks is a DMC-like exercise in agility. I only wish they'd got rid of the stupid timer that never made sense in the first place for a home console game. Okay, there is if memory serves one or two levels where you have to hurry to beat the clock, but every other instance in every single game it's just an annoying stress element when you want to explore stuff.

Just occured to me:

see anything wrong with this sentence?

[Amake]

Well I did click this thread expecting a game where you play as a Metroid, or princess Zelda. If I'd thought about it I might have wondered what the "castlevania" is exactly.

[Steel Shadow]

It's been bugging me, but the game is fun enough that I let it go.

It took three pages for anyone to point this out?

You guys disappoint me.

y'might not believe me, but I almost pointed it out in my post on the first page. However, when I realized that the mistake wasn't just Metroid, but almost everything in the title, I figured it was intentional, so I clammed up on the matter to avoid sounding like a jerk or falling into the joke.


Re: Megs not ducking.
He can slide under stuff, though.
