Mega Man shattered Dr. Wily’s plans three times and world peace has been maintained so far… but history repeats itself.

If you couldn’t tell from my journal entries, I am absolutely obliterating Mega Man games this weekend. Mega Man 4 introduces the Mega Buster, thereby rounding out the arsenal that will define these games for years to come. This one just feels great, and it’s also got my favorite group of Robot Masters so far (ESPECIALLY Skull Man). It also seems like Capcom is getting closer and closer to defining the perfect difficulty curve for these games, although I should note that this one drops lives and Energy Tanks like candy. Even with all of that in mind, Mega Man 4 doesn’t have too many new tricks. On to Mega Man 5
