ScrewAttack has decided to celebrate 25 years of the Blue Bomber by posting the following video detailing 12 reasons they “HATE” Mega Man (the original game, mind you, not the character). As usual with these “HATE” lists, Evil Craig is counting them off, so expect plenty of Not Safe For Work vulgarities… because he’s evil and he HATES these things, you see:

Now, before anyone gets all up in arms, it should be noted that they have posted 15 reasons they LOVE the original game as well with a photo gallery on their website. So go check it out!

    That was short and hilarious.

  2. Sammy says:

    Why couldn’t they make a video for the things they love? <8D All in all, that was hilarious, and we can probably relate.

    … And yes, Metools are cute.

  3. erikthered says:

    yeah, I don’t really like the original game either…

    Magnet beam is actually an amazing power! Like topspin, charge kick and mega ball, it is highly misunderstood by players who don’t understand the games mechanics beyond “jump and shoot”… and judging by the love for mega man 2 and the metal blades, I think it might be the majority.

    Magnet beam is essentially the “skip every hazard in the game”.

    get’s you past guts man’s platforms, the disappearing blocks, over the big eyes, past the flying platform area in ice man’s stage, etc!

    guts man’s power was pretty worthless… so was bomb man’s. really, the only powers worth using were elec beam, fire storm, ice slasher and magnet beam. Rolling cutter isn’t bad, so much as it’s not as good 3 weapons listed above.

    Should we add a follow-up post for ScrewAttack’s video on Gametrailers about the “Top 10 Biggest Capcom Mistakes”? Its pretty recent one which features more than Megaman among others. ::ahem::StreetFighterMovie::

  5. OrdoRaptus says:

    So basically a more appropriate way of wording it would be ’12 things we dislike about Megaman’. I guess the way they name them catches attention though, and that’s a good thing.

  6. timone317 says:

    So so true…I actually became frustrated seeing those flying enemies, the spikes, and that hopping bot.

  7. ManwholovesRockamusic says:

    LOL. Funny! I am actually laughing right now. That would be my first reactions when I first played that game and got my ass served on a silver plater.

  8. Rock-X: I’ve been pondering that one. On the one hand… what you said. On the other, its Mega Man content would pretty much exist here solely to fan the flames we’ve seen burn up our monitors so many times already.

    So, props to them for mentioning it, but… I’m not sure posting it here will really be a good idea.

    YELLOW DEVIL CAN **** MY ****!

  10. Bandit says:

    Thats why I have not touched nor do I have any intention on beating that game EVER. I died so many times I don’t think I ever made it to any boss. BOOOO

  11. I’m convinced that the engine that the original MegaMan runs on is actually the bittersweet tears of the players.

  12. GadgetJax says:

    Elec Man’s stage DOES NOT suck my %&#@.

    Yeah. I’m teachers pet, so I don’t say those kinds of words.
