MAGFest is the gift that keeps on giving, apparently. Why wasn’t I there? Becausereasons.
So there’s this band,Bit Brigade, whose members I will now consider my close, personal friends for life despite never having met them, and they performed theMega Man 2soundtrack on stage. Not that special, you may say. Everybody and their dogs playMega Man 2music, you may say. Yes, but do those other guys perform in sync with a video of a person playing the actual game live? I didn’t think so!
When Mega Man enters Flash Man’s domain, the Flash Man theme is performed. When Mega Man gets a weapon, the “weapon get” theme is performed. And this isn’t some half-assed run either, but a glitch-less speedrun with very few mistakes. It’s damned impressive, if marredeverso slightly by the fact that the game is being played on easy mode. Pssssh!
Forty-four minutes of nonstop action, guys! All is forgiven! That payer performs with the confidence of a seasoned porn vet! A room full of glowing eyes ain’t gonna break his stride!
