Now Cynder takes on Mega Man. Let's do this!
Cynder: Well, well, if it isn't Doctor Light's greatest work.
Ignitus: I'm sensing a fair amount of suspicion in your voice.
Cynder: Let's just say something has always bothered me about the circumstances where Mega Man gets to play hero. Doctor Light built the Robot Masters after all, so did he know just how easily Doctor Wily could hack them? Now am I saying this is some conspiracy theory? No. Just lazy roboethics programming if anything.
Ignitus: I wouldn't expect that out of Mega Man himself, though.
Cynder: Mega Man 7. "I am more than a robot", said to Doctor Wily whom Mega Man had full intention to kill. At least in the US version. And Mega Man X was specifically stated to not be bound by traditional programming, instead counting on a conscience program that had to be trained over a century. Don't get me wrong, Doctor Light is still a genius and I know for certain he had good intentions, I'm just thinking he may have been thinking beyond what he was capable of doing in this case.
Ignitus: Certainly a fair point, though everything turned out for the better. Ultimately.
Cynder: True. But enough philosophizing, let's get to fighting.
Ignitus: Agreed. And you'll need all the data you can get. Mega Man's entire Variable Weapons System is on display, weapons he hasn't used in years unlocked. It's a lot of data to take in, but I know you can handle it.
Cynder: Thanks. Time to take down gaming's classic robot!
And that wraps up Mega Man and Part I of the Memorial Day Special. For Part II, head on over to Dragon's Quest: Age of Miracles. Yes, this chapter got a lot deeper than Spyro did, but to be fair when I was writing Spyro's chapter, I'd almost forgotten the quirky roboethics and somehow easily hackable code that Doctor Light was using. One of those things that stuck out for some reason. Anyways, that aside, next time, the Wii Fit Trainer enters the arena. So be sure to tune in for that! Same time... same channel!
