After being awash in next-gen buffoonery day after day as part of my responsibilities as a Big Important Internet Guy, it’s nice to settle in with a nice pile of classic games and return to a time when men were men and two dimensions reigned supreme. 1UP’sRetronauts: Bonus Stageis an integral part of this escapist routine, especially this episode in which Jeremy “Deathgraw McSlaughter” Parish and crew discuss theMega Manseries, which eventually degenerates into a discussion almost solely about how awesomeMega Man 2is.(Fun fact:Mega Man 2is thebestgame in the smattering ofMMgames that Capcom has pumped out since the original’s inception. This has been proven, you know, scientifically, withbeakersandweightsand whatnot. It is, as I have mentioned, a fact. A fun one.)So hit play on that there video player and delight in a return to yesteryear — the Retronauts crew really knows their business and tend to be a pretty good listen besides. Bonus: it’s the only time you’re ever bound to hear “arthritic midget” in reference to the Blue Bomber, unless you’re speaking with theRev. Anthonywho callseverybodyan arthritic midget.
