NKF Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Excluding the, er, thing, it looks almost halfway decent. At least, compared to the first Megaman cover. Has that been posted yet? Love the State-Of-The-Art High Resolution Graphics. They truly were state of the art back then. - NKF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FullAuto Posted February 11, 2008 Author Share Posted February 11, 2008 Mega Man is proving consistent in his cover art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azrael Strife Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 The guy in Metro Cross's cover looks similar to the second cover of Megaman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimli Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Hmmm, I don't know. Metro Cross has the "I just farted heavily" look, whereas the Megaman has more of a "Trying to squeeze a poop" look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 That last Mega Man looks like he already has a turtle's head (and most of a turtle) poking out. Remember kids: if you're struggling to pass that stool, squat-thrusts really help. Oh, and having a gun for a hand. Nobody knows why, it just does okay? Oh, it was just the other guy's hand. Oh well.

FullAuto Posted February 11, 2008 Author Share Posted February 11, 2008 Pete's just inspired me. The MagaMan 2 cover. His arm is actually a toilet roll holder, and that expression is because he's just realised he's ran out at a critical moment. Hence the incredulous "You WHAT?" look on his face.

NKF Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 That first picture is cringeworthy. The poor guy's right knee is either dislocated, or he's partial to wearing the top of his helmet and his outer-underpants a bit off to the side. Mind you, that's not a bad rendition of Doc Wiley in the second pic. - NKF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Barbarian. How I miss thee. Barbarian 2 was better obviously, but only because the graphics were ever so slightly better. I may have to dust off the ole C64 and see if it still runs just to play that game. And Double Dragon. And Paradroid. And... well, you get the idea.

Pete Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 For the love of God, never see the Stormbreaker film. I very nearly turned off the DVD after thje first 20 minutes, but found myself watching it til the end just in case he spontaneously combusted. I was disappointed on that front Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimli Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 In that Barbarian pic. I wonder about that free poster, is it of the girl in the pic? If it is, I think I'm going to go shopping. Also, Double Dragon == pure pwnage. Why don't they make games like that on the PC anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
