In fact, I've beaten Quick Man himself without the Time Stopper plenty of times. Flash Stopper is actually the name of Bright Man's weapon, by the way. Don't feel bad, though. That mistake seems to be pretty common among the fanbase. Even I've gotten them mixed up.<br /><br />"Or HeatMan stage without Item 2."<br /><br />I've pulled that one off before, too. It's even easier to do in Mega Man 9's Endless Stage.<br /><br />"Or beating WoodMan on hard mode without Metal Blades."<br /><br />Oh, I've done that one plenty of times, as well. That is, if using Atomic Fire counts (which is actually his primary weakness).Krazy Monkeyhttp://solarblaze.deviantart.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-13154495965228070692010-11-30T19:08:19.147-06:002010-11-30T19:08:19.147-06:00Can't blame them for the "Flying Fish&quo...Can't blame them for the "Flying Fish", it was used in the game's manual! And poor "Dr. Wiley" got some naming issues in early games, even in-game in MM3.<br /><br />As the game has over 20 years, many have practice to defeat Air Man without weapons and pass through Heat Man's stage without Item 2 and Bubble Lead.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-11144796257407821122010-11-30T18:06:10.907-06:002010-11-30T18:06:10.907-06:00Dhylec -

There are several Mega Man games that are harder than 2 -- 1, 3, 4, 7, 8, and 10 to be precise.<br /><br />Pretty much any Mega Man game is easy once you know the optimal order of stages.

Some things can look like other things to other people and sometimes, ignorance can lead to people doing things we might find to be stupid. Don't you remember the first time <i>you</i> played <i>Mega Man II</i>? I do. I thought that stage select screen was a <i>character</i> select screen.<br /><br />In any case, sure it's funny to laugh at how utterly clueless we all seemed in the past, but we were <b>all</b> there at some point or another. No matter what you might think, this game was pretty damn hard back before we played it 100 times over and learned every little thing about it. ;3Joseph Collinshttp://go.to/KillerMegabytesConoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-26060552293467402082010-11-30T15:02:13.937-06:002010-11-30T15:02:13.937-06:00This is lulz in one of its most purest forms.This is lulz in one of its most purest forms.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-77621689710721875902010-11-30T14:38:40.069-06:002010-11-30T14:38:40.069-06:00Lol, watching this again just for kicks.

You take major damage for touching them so I'm sure this advise actually makes it harder.<br /><br />Oh, and I gotta get one of those Supersonic controllers.

Or HeatMan stage without Item 2. Or beating WoodMan on hard mode without Metal Blades.<br /><br />If you know the optimal order of stages then sure, it's easy (discovering it for yourself is trial and error, which is bad design, even worse in MM1).
