Who said that just because a game has 8-bit graphics and synth-tastic sound that it can't show off a little bit of that modern shine 'n polish? Mega Man 9, the game that's making many a new-school gamer realize that game controllers are indeed flingable, finally gets its first wave of DLC in the form of Proto Man and a new challenge. Joy!
Proto Man returns to the series, complete with charge-shot, power-slide, and handy bullet-deflecting shield. Unfortunately, this double-fun comes packaged with the crimson-colored hero taking double-damage and double bounce back when hit. Endless Attack is the single new challenge this week, testing the most hardcore-of-hardcore fans to last as long as they can before expiring into a poof of electric bubbles.
Be aware that both Proto Man and new challenges are not compatible with other rankings or challenges, so its all ego from here on out. Like the game itself, the DLC is curiously staggered, with the Wii version (of course) hitting digital stores today, the Xbox 360 October 7th, and the PSN bringing up the rear October 9th.
