Mega Man Discussion / Fan-Game Playthrough Vote
« on: September 16, 2014, 01:54:52 PM »Hello everyone! As some of you may or may not know, I do a series of playthroughs on my YouTube channel generally involving fan-games of varying quality. I recently hit my 1,000 Subscriber mark, and I wanted to do something special for the occasion. As such, I'm letting others vote on what I should do next in terms of my overall playthroughs. The vote will last for one week (starting from now on the 16th up to the 23rd). At the end of the poll, I'll play the top 3 games with the most votes. Check the video for a bit more information and footage of the initial fan-game list I compiled. I'll be taking votes from both here and my channel into account.
Note: I will be taking suggestions for other games to play, but there's a few that I've either already done or can't/won't do for various reasons.

[Games I probably won't consider playing]
Super Danny 1: Simplest reason in the world - Super Danny Powered Up is a more refined version of this game, and it would therefore be redundant to include the outdated one.
Super Mega Man 1 and 2: Even compared to Super Mega Man 3, both of these games are virtually unplayable (I'd go as far as to say they outclass Origins in terms of how broken they are).
Star Man/Star Man Upgraded: Another game I find to be unplayable, though more-so for the way its mechanics are set up. Star Man's primary attack in this game is so dreadful, it's somehow even worse than the version Mega Man gets in the original MM5. If this version were a stand-alone weapon, it would come pretty close to the Time Bomb from Rockbot in terms of how awful it is. For me, it makes the game a complete nightmare to go through (the vertical scrolling combined with cheaply placed spikes doesn't help this game much either).
Mega Man X Eclipse Demo: This isn't to say I don't like the X series. In fact, I've been wanting to do some videos on it for a while now. For this fan-game however, a single stage demo isn't enough to warrant a video in my opinion.
Mega Man 25th Anniversary Demo: Same reason as with MMX Eclipse, as in that it's basically a demo with one full stage (even with two bosses, that still doesn't make up for what little there is here). That, and this is one of those games that automatically boots up in full-screen mode with no way to put it into a windowed format. I can't exactly record anything that does that (for now, anyways).
Mega Man Triple Threat Demo: Same reason as the last two. While the approach of using MM7's graphics are a neat change in this whole formula of fan-games, I still feel this doesn't have enough content to warrant a video (even with multiple characters, there's still only an intro stage and one main stage).
Novelty/Arcade-Styled Fan-Games: Any game that basically revolves around a high score, is made for the sake of a novelty purpose or gimmick, or outright can't be beaten. Kind of defeats the purpose of making a video for it.
