AWKWARD ZOMBIE

A weapon from Mega Man 2, which can be shot in 8 directions

See? You know NOTHING of Mega Man

Oh he got to shoot up in one game with a special weapon

I don't understand what is so great

A) All blades are metal

B) It was only for one game

And I'm sure that people only used those weapons against the bosses and their weaknesses anyway so how is that valid?

He can shoot upwards, but not with his gun

Mega Man 2 vas the vorst game in the series so you can't use it in an argument.

If you ever watched a speed run of a Mega Man game, you'd know that Metal Blades are used for more than just killing bosses, they utterly DECIMATE nearly everything in the entire game.

Mega Man 3 has the Shadow Blade, which could also be shot in all upwards directions

Mega Man 4's dust crusher explodes into diagonal shots

Mega Man 5's Gyro Attack can be shot up and down

Mega Man 6's Blizzard Attack has diagonal shots, and the Tomahawks fly upward

Mega Man 7's Freeze Cracker can be aimed diagonally

Mega Man 8's Tornado Hold, obviously, reaches all the way up the screen. The homing missiles seek enemies

Rockman & Forte's Magic Cards can be shot upward

Mega Man 9's Hornet Chasers seek out enemies, the Black Hole Bomb can be shot anywhere on the screen, and the Magma Bazooka has diagonal shots

Mega Man 10 has the rebound striker, which bounces all over walls and can be aimed up at an angle. The thunder wool can be shot pretty high up. And the bombs can be guided ANYWHERE

YOU LOSE

GOOD

DAY

SIR

Hey RNFB, I've never played a mega man game.

Why don't you invite me over to your house and show me how to play games like a real man?

That requires two items he doesn't have, Star.

Just watch a speed run

What I tell ya?

SIGH

I guess I'll just never learn how to become a hardcore player from jumping puzzles and robot masters.

I'll just have to watch videos of other people doing it.

What about Megaman 1

It's the first game, what more do you want from it? Though, it does have the magnet beam, which lets him create platforms at will.

So the developers recognised it was a design flaw and gave Megaman lots of weapons to make up for his disability instead of just letting him shoot up?

Whyyyyyy

So you have never played the game? Just vatched speed runs? Oh man.

Difficulty, son. If Mega Man could shoot in all directions, the game would be too easy.

See: Mega Man & Bass and Mega Man 10. Bass's standard weapon can shoot in ALL DIRECTIONS, and it completely breaks the game.
