Slightly behind schedule but the beginning of the month tends to occupy my time with errands. But we're still on the right day so that's something to celebrate, no? Speaking of celebrating, let's take in the average of last week's Ghosts n' Goblins and celebrate a new milestone this week! Take a look at the leaderboard:

So we've got both another sequel and another Capcom title on our hands here as we have Mega Man 2 as the game to rate this week. The Blue Bomber sits at a respectable number 16 on the list with his original entry but what about the follow up? How does this rate with you? Vote, share, and discuss. Happy trails!

Mega Man 2 was fantastic. One of the better games of the series. Music for each level was on point too....Bubble Man and Air Man were great

Easily the best Megaman game for me. 1st one I played and the one I came back to most often. 3 was also very good, and probably my 2nd fav.

Also was my first megaman game and hooked me on the series for life. Such a great game with one of the most awesome soundtracks ever. Easy 4.

MM2 is the best game in the series and its one of the best action platformers. just behind Castlevania and Ninja Gaiden. It also boasts on of the best OSTs of all time

Not sure if any of you are familiar with this channel but they do some pretty boss remixes of Mega Man themes. Feel free to indulge at your leisure.

Yeah, it's a pain when I stumble across something I want to embed when I'm out and about on my phone.

No, but seriously, why was the Bubble Lead the fucking weapon that you had to use for the end?

Did capcom have a tradition of making you use the worst weapon at the end?

Nah, the Pharaoh Shot from Mega Man 4 was pretty dope and it just devastated Wily at the end. The Gyro Blade in Mega Man 5 was OK. The Top Spin in Mega Man 3 was the drizzling shits though.
