Let's all play Megaman 64! One of the best Megaman games, in my opinion.

Background: The Diggers *snerk* search for energy stuff to power stuff on their own little water world. The "Mother Lode", an enormous energy source, would be enough to constantly power the world and is much sought after. Megaman and Roll begin their search by finding a big crystal, and now we have to guide Megs out of the underground tunnels that he found the crystal in.

Basically, we run around and shoot stuff until we find a door out. Yay! If that ain't enough background for you, 1) shame on you for never playing this game and 2) go wiki it.



Just in case you had to question just how 'mega' Megaman was, well, our steroid-pumped 10-year-old is lifting rusted metal doors. He's a Digger (god, that sounds sooooo wrong).


Le Crystal. Huge powerful, and wroth much monies, as Roll keeps blabbering on aobut in the background.


Giant tits of doom, Batman! It's a booby trap!


Megaman likes Lara Croft.


The beginning, and already Roll never shuts up. Well, golly, Roll, you don't think those brightly colored antennae sticking out of the wall could be Reaver bots, eh?


Oh, whew, I was worried there for a minute, cause, you know, what else am I going to do with this freakin gun that's welded to my arm?!


Ugly little S.O.B. And it pooped that grey bug thing at me, too. Ewww.


What stunning 64-bit graphics! It's like Pong, but better!




....No

Well, according to the Laws of Gaming, whenever someone tells you to go a certain way, you always go the opposite, because then you get treasure. Or candy!


*translating* lolz, theirs big gold ahed, lolz


Yeah, what's the worse that could happen? Tentacle raped by a sausage?

Anyways, killed 6 of the Sausages, then head back to the door. And I didn't get any treasure. :(


Nope! Still no door here.


orly?


And by 'right in front of me', she means 'slightly to the left behind that pillar over yonder' and by 'somethng' she means 'three homicidal Reaverbots'. Thanks for the heads up. Smack those puppies then head through the far door.


Death from above!


Or a robot with very bad aim.


This looks fun.


w00t! Too bad it doesn't tell you that everything dissappears in about 2 seconds.

WTF? This ain't Zelda, yo.


Boss battle! Megaman VS Gutsman-wannabe-with-6-legs-and-pointy-arm.


Getting use to the controls still. Hence the suck-itude (my health is on the left, Gutsman's is the top-right).


pwned lolz


Wait, this is outside? How the hell does an island several thousand feet up come to exist on a world covered in water?


Megaman: It followed me home, can I keep it?
Roll: 0.0

(By the way, the exit was only a bit bigger than Megaman, and this big guy...isn't. Figure that out whydontcha..


Saved by the ship I shall now call Sunny! Cause, you know, it looks like a Lego sun fish.

Bit of a cutscene here, where we learn Megs and Roll are looking for Refractors to make money and find Roll's parents. Yeah, they bought this script at RPG's R' Us. Anywho, Roll's Grandpa (huh?) Barrel says the engine is dying so Roll, being an expert flyer, decides to land on this little island with a weird name that I don't remember.




Roll is an awesome pilot.


And here we stop, next to Data the save monkey in a diaper. (Can you tell what's different in this picture?)

Let's hope I can figure out how the save feature works on Project64, cause this is fun.

Hm...I might get this once it pops up on the virtual console.

I'll pay attention this thread once it gets past the part I'm on.
Also, because I'm pedantic, the Nintendo 64 didn't have 64-bit graphics; the N64's processor was actually 2 32-bit processors; not exactly as powerful or the same thing. And certainly not in an entire league of its own compared to "32-bit" graphics.

What part is that?


Continuing!


Gots to head off into town to grab some parts...


Then Mr. Mayor appears and gives us a long winded speech as most mayors are wont to do.


Whoa, whoa, what? Look, I ain't Mexican, man. Oh well, Barrel (turns out it's Professor Barrel) heads off with Mr. Mayor.

Let's continue on to town again.


This looks like a nice place to live. Real secure.


To market, to market, to buy some spare parts.


Roll should be happy.


Of course he is. ;) And, as his wife tells us, he's lost. Go figure. Let's head outside town and go into that tunnel that man was standing near (missed the picture, sorry).




Looks like this is the place.


Seriously, he was like, 50 feet into the tunnel and about 10 feet above a bunch of the Sausage robots.

Of course, when he says that, he means 'Go talk to my wife, she the one who keeps all my credit cards-I mean, she'll give you something'.


Yay! Mines are mine!


...she doesn't have the parts to fix a ship (called the Flutter, by the way), but she does have a Reaverbot in the back of the store. She say's she'll sell me other stuff, like power ups and weapons, though. Oh, and she gave me a car. :D



What's my name you ask? Guess which one I chose. ;)


:D

Let's head out to town, where Roll and Data are mindlessly wandering around by my new (old and broken down) car.








Fun times are a head.


Que? I swear I'm not illiegal, officer!

Oh goodie, I'm now a citizen of Middle-Of-Nowhere-Armpit-o-the-Planet Island.


Oh, yeah, we forgot to mention there are pirates around. Well, see ya.




These guys are blocking the city gate with their silly secret meeting out in the middle of the road. Let's eavesdrop!








They can't mean Roll, can they?


Where'd this come from? It can't be a pirate ship, no siree, that Skull on it doesn't mean a thing.


I love these guys. You might recognize them from the Marvel VS Capcom II game. They're waiting for Tron, they say. Huh, I wonder how he got out of the computer?


That's it for tonight. There's a lot of talk and not much action in the beginning of the game, which is good, plotwise. Might be a bit boring for you, but it'll get better once we get to the Bones. ^_^

I want more. D:

To answer your question, Starscream, at the time I was about to get in the second-to-last fight with the Bonne family.
At this point I've already done the last one.
But, later (I'm already reading a LP at SomethingAwful at the moment) I'll browse through this.
