Mr. Arin “Soon-to-be-reality-show-star” Hanson, aka Egoraptor, is a smart man. A very, very, very smart man. He’s so smart, he made a 20-minute video explaining whyMega Man Xis both the bee’s kneesandthe cat’s pajamas at the same time. In the words of Harley Morenstein: “F*ckin’ smart!”
This is the second installment of Egoraptor’sSequelitisseries, thefirstof which weighed the originalCastlevaniaagainstSimon’s Quest. While that episode focused onSimon’s Quest‘s many flaws, this one is all about howMega Man Xvastly improved upon the franchise formula and became his personal favorite game of all time. Additionally, in discussing the game’s strengths, he demonstrates the importance of instructing the player through gameplay and subtle feedback rather than through obtuse tutorials and on-screen prompts.
He also punches Roll multiple times in the face, which is friggin’ hilarious.
