Why is Mega Man 3 the best Mega Man game and the best 8-bit platformer ever made?

what came after six and before x?

It's okay though because 3 really is the best Mega Man game. Adding Rush and sliding was the perfect addition of flexibility that the series needed before gimmicks starting getting out of control with 4. Also the best soundtrack of the franchise.
How hard is this game compared to Final Fight 2 and Streets Of Rage 2?

Harder. Also you have more moves to learn. I'd say the skill ceiling may be higher too.
Great game

I beat Ninja Warriors and Streets of Rage 2 on my first plays - so it's definitely not harder.
It took me several attempts to beat Final Fight 2 though.

Much easier than either of those.

Seriously shit my pants when I opened the door, heard a loud 'GUTEN TAG!', and he opened fire with those massive machine guns. He pretty much raped my ass in a matter of seconds. I had to have been about 9 years old. My heart was beating so fast afterward.

I don't really see how his anecdote was "amusing and interesting" but if you want to seethe at your monitor like an autist because of an offhand comment then it's no skin off my nose, I guess.

Get we get a motherfucking Duke Nukem thread started up in this bitch? Y'all can talk about any Duke Nukem game. It does not have to be Duke Nukem 3D.

Duke Nukem Zero Hour was the best Duke Nukem game of all time.
I'm going to pour a sip of my beer onto my rug to honor the dead franchise after it's official death upon release of Duke Nukem Forever.

Whats the most expensive video game you own? For me its my sealed copy of soldier blade for the turbografx 16. Ive seen it be sold for over $400 in ebay. The american version goes for over $1000 sometimes.

Hey,
So this turned up in my place of work. Just wondering if anyone knows what the deal with the weird blue label is? People over at /V/ seem to think it's just discolouration but it doesn't have a faded look to apart from where the Nintendo logo should be. Someone mentioned you guys might have a better idea with this thing.

What retro games deserve the 10/10 label?
And out of those games, do you think they still stand on their own today, or has their success become so magnanimous that their mechanics were completely picked apart and ripped off by future games that they now just feel mundane to a casual observer? Similar to the Seinfeld effect.

Pic related.
Also, Space Harrier, Puyo Puyo and Tempest.

Metal slug 3
Crazy Taxi
House of the dead 2
Star fox 64
Outrun
Windjammers
These are games you can pick up anytime. Games that will last you forever. Also I'm fairly certain that they stand the test of time mostly because almost no other games have even tried to top them.

Dune 2000
I do not have nostalgia for this game I'm playing for the first time ever at the age of 27 and this game fucking rules oh my God. I wasn't smart enough as a little kid to appreciate it when it was released and playing it now after suffering the past 8years of modern and progressive games this title Dune 2000 is like nothing else. I'm happy to be alive so that I can experience old games for the first time

Doom Guy is the ultimate moralfag
>Kills demonic evil, including "The Icon of Sin" aka Satan
>Never hurts anything pure
>In Doom 1, he has been sent to Mars after assaulting his commanding officer who ordered his men to fire on innocent civilians.
>Sacrifices himself to save the final remnants of humanity in Doom 2
>Decides to stay in hell in Doom 64 as a shepherd of evil, "and ensure no demon ever rises again." (Quote from the game)
Truly the Kenshiro of vidya. Does anyone even compare to his level of goodness through sheer ultraviolence?

Probably a Genesis and an Everdrive. Depends on your definition of affordable and what kind of experience you're trying to have.

I'm a big fan of the Genny and I'd like to learn a bit more about her retarded little sister.

Without exception there is a better version of every title that would be worth emulating over running the 32x version even on real hardware.

Pilotwings 64 is much better and has more personality but the original is a good early release on SNES imo.
