Still Playing: Megaman 7


So far I've managed to take out the eight Robot Masters - and lo and behold...I have a new most hated level of all time! Turbo Man!

Screw you, butthole.


Not only is this level frustrating because of cheap, one-hit-kill enemies and hazards, it's extremely tedious. There's pitfalls all over the level - and the ones that don't kill you force you through a slog of enemies with massive health bars, prompting you to empty your special weapons on these meaningless baddies.

THEN! After dancing through unpredictable, and unavoidable fire columns, and one-hit-kill lasers, you're met with an eighteen wheeler truck, who appears invincible. Every type of ammo you have bounces off of his stupid face leaving the player to believe that nothing will kill him. Welp. Come to find out - the bullets ARE doing damage! It's just that they decided to change the series standby of "these bullets aren't working because they're bouncing off the enemy" to "fooled you!"

Turbo Man himself isn't that hard if you have the right weapon, but the stage threw me into a frenzy multiple times.



 
See! Even this guy with the Australian accent had trouble with it.

Now on to the end of the game.

I'm comin for you, Wily!
