The Brothers Chaps have done it again. This time, they've made a Stinkoman game. Holy crap, those guys are good. Anyone familiar with the old-school Megaman games will feel instant nostalgia playing this. (Or, alternatively, rage at the blatant ripoff, depending on how defensively sensitive you get about your video games.) I mean, they got the look, the sound, the feel, all exactly right. Amazing.

It is freakishly like Megaman.

I miss Megaman.

I miss that kind of Mega Man. The old school Mega Man.

I hated Mega Man X. It was so hard. I would spend just as much time playing the game as sitting there generating random passwords to bypass all the stuff I could not beat.

I play a lot more old school games than newer high graphics games. IMO the hey day of RPGs was in the old days.

That being said, I haven't played Final Fantasy or really any of the PS, PS2 or Xbox games.

But what could beat old school games like Zelda?

Pong. And it's all been downhill from there.

Mega Man X hard? Please! It is such an awesome game, with a memorable soundtrack, too. It ranks up there with LoZ: aLttP and Super Metroid!

Now that we're up to... MMX 10 (?), it's gotten a bit old.

Oh, yeah. *drool*

Do they have a release date for that yet?

Cause I'll have to set aside some time... [Big Grin]

Never played KotR, but I've heard good things. Admittedly I did love Star Wars Battlegrounds, but felt it got boring after awhile.

I never said there weren't one or two exceptions to the rule.

What's the new Zelda game called anyway? It's going to be for Game Cube right?
