It's pretty well known that I'm a diehard Mega Man fan. But it took me over 20 years to finally play my first Battle Network title. I'm not sure I loved this game, but I'm a pretty big fan of what the franchise is trying to do.


If you've never played it, it's a tactical RPG spin on classic Mega Man. You play as a grade 5 student trying to save the world from computer viruses (and Dr. Wily of course), and you do it with your MegaMan.EXE program. The game is split between over world traversal and tactical combat, and while navigating the game's maps drove me crazy, the combat system really peaked my interest. I'll play more of these games at some point, no doubt about it.


Long-time hot dog and power mad Discord mod, Keegs, is my guest this week. We both agreed that there's a great concept for a Mega Man game here, even if the execution is a little flawed. I think you can say the same about the first mainline Mega Man game, and that ended up working out ok...


And before we jack-in, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!


This week, someone asks if I've ever played the Mega Man ZX games? Does anyone else regularly fall asleep while gaming?? And what if Link to the Past had been on the NES??


Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 of Metacritics highest scored GBA RPGs: Golden Sun, Tactics Ogre, and Fire Emblem.
