I’m currently playing through Mega Man ZX Advent on expert. It’s hard. Really hard, bit not impossible. I actually have been through all the Mega Man Zero games on GBA on the hardest settings and loved it. It all boils down to watching the enemy patterns and being in the right spot to avoid taking damage and attacking at the proper times. It’s even possible to do boss encounters with out taking a hit (I’ve done it).

I don’t usually do the hard modes of game as I find them cheap rather then hard but I do enjoy the Mega Man difficulties. They seem more planned out rather then just jack up enemy damage.

So what about you? Do you bother with the higher difficulties in games? Do you just play the normal settings and that’s it? Or do you jump right in on the hardest setting as soon as you start up the game?

Or are you a wuss that only plays on the easy settings so you can rip though a game and give yourself a false feeling of accomplishment.

That’s right, I said it…
