Got this game today and it's really good. Playing on "new" mode and am noticing some differences to the stages. Gutsman seems especially stretched out. Like how you can beat the bosses with the mega buster (they really aren't hard, especially since I've been playing a lot of Mega Man original/X series lately) you can get them to use. Defeated 4 of the guys - Cutman, Elecman, Oil Man, Bomb Man. Gutsman's stage is still a pain in the ass, I hate those platforms... break was over as soon as I finally cleared them.
One thing I'm not happy about is Bombman's stage. The original was my favorite stage in that game, loved the blue skies with those big orange drumstick type things in the background... the new stage is this dark purple that I would barely recognize as Bombman's stage.
Voices are pretty annoying... especially the screechy "READY" when you start the stage. Then again MM games have never had good voice acting. It's funny hearing Mega Man plead with the enemy robots before battle though, he sounds so desperate.
OilMan is a bit on the goofy side... he does the little jig and his lips were recolored to yellow... voice actor sounds pretty much like a middle American white male though. Still surprised they left this in, wonder if there's gonna be any sort of backlash?
Have just barely started with the level editor... seems pretty strict and not very customizable as of now, maybe I just need to collect the item packs in the levels.
Can you unlock the original game in this... as in the original MM with 8 bit sprite graphics?
Another question - where is the platform creator... don't think I saw it in Elecman's stage this time around. Is it even in the game?
Only question is, I see something like - stages cleared 6/433 or so... does this mean the game expects me to beat every stage, at every difficulty level, with every boss character?
