God were those beams such a pain in the ass! That being even if it you could get by them, once you knew where exactly to go, while no longer needing the Flash Stopper in order to do so for that matter as time went on too.

There are two types of people in this world. Those who hear the ringing of death beams in their ears while listening to this, and those who've never played Mega Man 2.
@@captaincommando5072 I typically stick with X. I'll sometimes use Zero in X4-6, but that's usually just if I feel like mixing it up, rather than preferring to use him at all.

@@KilosFoxo Quick Man falls hard when you use Crash weapon. That said, I've been playing this game since 1992 and no amount of muscle memory guarantees you'll make it past them laser beams.
This was the first robot I've ever tried on Mega Man 2. It's not my all time favorite (Mega Man X Intro Stage) or my favorite from this game (Metal Man Stage), but still it holds a special place in my heart.
I tried Bubble Man first. Killed Flash Man after the continue. Quick Man and Heat Man stages were the hardest at the time, but they're so etched to memory that there's no trouble ever anymore.
Those laser beams were pain in the ass. I remember dying a thousand times on them, but the awesome music kept me trying to beat the level and I always did eventually. 😊 Nice to see a fellow Finn in TH-cam! Pidetään Suomen lippu korkealla ja pelataan MM2!
I know what you mean! I am also 34, and this was one of my favourite games. I remember Quick Man being a very tricky level to beat - my sisters thought I was a total Guru when I finally beat him!
Quick Man was the hardest! And I remember groaning during the Willy stages where he comes BACK and I'm at half health and going "DAMN!". Best of times. :) They don't make them like they used to.
I'm 32 and I agree entirely. The memory of waking up early on the weekends, just as the sun was coming up, just so I can sneak downstairs and play these games in the living room while my parents still slept upstairs will always put a smile on my face.
In that case, here is a 1-hour-loop for you: th-cam.com/video/I8S2vgcIWnU/w-d-xo.html *_"Mega Man 2 (NES OST) - Quick Man's Stage Music (Super Extended) "_*
The music actually made this level bearable when I was a kid...not too hard now as an adult..but as an 8 year old with ADHD it was brutal! It is my very favorite 8-bit MM music to be exact.
As a 12 year old playing Mega Man 2 I got to the Quick Man stage, heard the soundtrack and thought “This should be a fun level!” Then came the lasers. Those bloody lasers!!!!!
I know ....me TOO! Although I have different categories for some of the others...this one is my favorite NES MM. As for PS-1 MM that one goes to Jet Stingray. (..^_^..)
this song in particular stuck to me because this sounds exactly like a final level theme and i kept quick man for last. beating this game was truly a magical experience.
This has always been my favorite Megaman theme it took me a while to find it I didn’t know it was from part 2 😅 Part 2 really is one of the best Megaman games by far
The erraticness of this theme, the speed at which the poor NES had to process everything on-screen, I can think of nothing more fitting for a boss names *Quick* Man. Also: His BN2 redesign is just him but bigger and HOLY HELL is he fast in that game.
If you played this game with the Game Genie, it fucked with the sound, it was just something that happened with some games, but it made this particular song sound next level.
Quick man: One of Frisk helpers he helps by throwing his quick boomerang to make enemies attacks down here is a picture of frisk borrowing sans’s tricycle very quick and quick man running quick
I can’t help but wonder now if these tracks are somewhat biographical of the robot MM is ordered to destroy. This track really cries out a story of how Quickman was created and existed up to this point. Real interesting, I might even write my own story about each robot in MM2 based on their stage music.
"The NOISE channel (1 out of the 5 sound channels NES had) is primarily used for percussion. It sounds similar to a television displaying static. It has 16 preset pitches across two modes, offering 32 voices. The second mode has a more metallic, sometimes almost melodic buzz to it. The lesser used metallic sound can be heard in quick mans theme"
I always saved Quick Man for last, since the stage was so intimidating, and the idea of having to fight Quick Man any earlier than last was terrifying. Now I start with Quick Man because I find both the stage and boss fight to be really fun Buster Only.
I wish the guy who made the fast yellow insta-kill lasers a very unpleasant evening. I wish the guy who brought it back for Mega Man X5 an equally unpleasant evening.
Mega Man: I fear no men but that thing
(Yellow laser sound)
Mega Man: It scares me
Pongame 7 por lo menos un 5 BYYOOOOOOIIIIIIIII

"Finally, never again"

Force Beams are the worst thing to ever exist in this game I guess

It’s not that hard when you have the muscle memory down, then you realize how short and boring of a stage it is
@@thepokeybird muscle memory does not help against the random shit known as quickman who since bieng the stage boss is part of the stage

Not a popular choice, but this is the best robot master theme in the game for me.
+Kimmo Laine i think this is my favorite megaman song out of any of them

That satisfying buzzing noise. I love it. It's just like Fireman's theme in the first Mega Man.
Buzzing? It sounds like an electrical current
BZZZZZ
BZZZZZ
@@christopherballesteros-cy4tq ... And buzzing sounds can be electrical lol. They probably meant buzzing as in electrical buzzing here
*didi-didi-dit didit-didit*

(Death sound)
This level in a nutshell, nuff said.
Yup
100% accurate
Play Mega Man 2 they said.
It will be fun they said.
"It's easier than the other megaman games"
*THEY SAID*
Quick Man wasnt too hard
@@rebelfleettrooper9881yeah but if you pick the difficult difficulty and go to his stage
Im 34, and looking back, and listening, its hard to fathom how great the music was back when I was a kid, and playing this game on the NES.

I am 15-16 years old and I play this game with my brother , he got 30 years
So much Giant Steps era Coltrane on this game. Those Capcom composers knew their shit.
Most underrated track in the game.
Shademan theme: am i a joke to you?
@@inkygzn mega man 7 is a different game.
Wait, it's underrated?!
@@StePadilla Underrated is heat man's theme
*cough* most over *cough* rated theme *cough* in megaman
Literally one of the most fun levels in any game

I'm only 11
but I can agree
im 14 and can agree
As a 12 year old playing Mega Man 2 I got to the Quick Man stage, heard the soundtrack and thought “This should be a fun level!”
Then came the lasers. Those bloody lasers!!!!!
"oh, you enjoying the vibe?
how 'bout you enjoy it for 3 more hours"
Those lasers 💀
Those laser beams had me thinking that I could never beat the game
the crash bomb fight literally stopped my progression, and my console broke so I couldn't keep trying

My favorite stage music ever. Any era and I`m pretty old. I get hyped to play this stage EVERY TIME 20+ years later. Masterpiece.
I know ....me TOO! Although I have different categories for some of the others...this one is my favorite NES MM. As for PS-1 MM that one goes to Jet Stingray. (..^_^..)
Im old play this game when i was teenager all mega man game are classic
Also Sunset Riders.
"Draw, pilgrim!"
There are two sides of this music
1- the sad Tunes making you remember sad moments
2- the suffering for get past of this stage
This is one of the most futuristic MM themes to me, it really sounds like you're inside some sort of gigantic super advanced factory.
It took me a while to do the beams without stopping time. You feel like a true gamer when you do that.
Mega Man 2 and Super Metroid have some of the best songs in levels ever.
i'd say mega man 2 has the best ost of all time, followed by legend of zelda: link's awakening.
+Link I agree
Don't forget shovel knight
jbohnoff castlevania too!
F-Zero GX: AM I A JOKE TO YOU!?
The FUCKING BARS come out of LITERALLY NOWHERE!!!
I was playing this game when I was 7, back in 1989. Quick man's stage is one that I remember well. Love this tune!
catchy song
HELLISH level
Those frickin' awkwark sounding, golden/creme coloured laser-tube things though....
@@sophiaseth2769 *pardon?*
@I hate you oh, now that explains it. I did it the *hard* way since, in the mega man games, I always play them in order from the up-left stage.
Call me weird, but this has a Latin dance beat. Kinda of like salsa or merengue.
Joelomite it absolutely does! I never really considered that but this is totally Latin. Good call!
+thohangst, thanks! Also, Cut Man from MM1 has some Latin fuego too :-)
+Joelomite Haha You have no idea what really are Salsa and Merengue
+Roberto Izquierdo that's because I'm a gringo :-)
Also Plantman and Slash Man's stages. They definitely have some influences, one way or another, while sounding signature "Mega Man." :-)
Sounds like a melody from inside of the clockwork. Or giant robotic factory. It has certain rhythm to it.
this song in particular stuck to me because this sounds exactly like a final level theme and i kept quick man for last. beating this game was truly a magical experience.
Everytime I hear this song I remember the sound of the lasers almost like part of the song.
Yeah, I hear you! Kind of like with the trumping elephants in Dhalsim's stage in Street Fighter II to an even bigger extent also! (L.O.L.!)
Bwaaaa bwaaaaa bwaaaaa
Waking up at 7:00 AM and realizing the bus arrives at 7:05: THE THEME SONG
Man, I absolutely love the first 12 seconds or so. The theme overall is great, but I could listen to that first part loop for hours.
The song of realizing you can cheese everything with Time Stopper, then using up the whole gauge because you don't know how to turn it off.
God's honest truth: you can't. I don't think you can even pause.
@@sportsjefe You can’t. I remember trying.
Flash Stopper in "Mega Man 4" fixed everything that was wrong with Time Stopper, and this basically made it broken.
You can’t turn it off from what I remember so I was mad when I used it up 💀
Right from the start you already know the stage is gonna be one of the hardest out there
Me: nearly makes it to the bottom of the map. Laser beam: OHHH you almost had it, you gotta be QUICKER than that!
LOL
Lmao
OHAHAHAHAHA
I haven't even played this game in the past 3 years or so, but the very first second of the music just triggered all sorts of nasty memories euuugh
those fucking laser beams 😤
One of my favorite video game themes ever
As a kid, idk why, but this seemed like the perfect music for the highway through Sacramento and its various junctions.
This has always been my favorite Megaman theme it took me a while to find it I didn’t know it was from part 2 😅 Part 2 really is one of the best Megaman games by far
In this town, I am the law!
Is what they say true:
does death wear blue?
Can he fall?
I love The Megas, lol
Now I do hear this theme being remixed for the Sigma stage in Megaman X5.
OH MY GOD
Gotta go quick
+Elvis bo this days they say BRB back in the days they say gotta go quick
+Elvis bo Real quick!
lol
Whoa!
Sonic: You're quick, Quick Man, but you're not Fast!
those yellow bars that fly by and one-hit-kill you make me want to die sometimes.
Quick man was either from the D.R, Puerto Rico or Cuba! This theme was great
maybe he is from Colombia
I’ve always said the same thing. Something about this theme makes me think of Gloria Estefan 😅
My favorite stage and stage theme in the game. Always fun for me.
Quickman: You think you know pain??....
Best song of the game, good to listen and good to play in a party and dance!!!
This is my new ringtone
PSHOOOOORAWAAAAN!
"OH GOD RUN THE HELL AWAY!"
Lazers 2 fast 4 u
I wasn't a 90's kid but the first mega Man game I've played was mega Man 2 and this was my favorite stage and music
Haha. you stepped on a rusty nail? most painful experience of your life? yeah mine was this stage
So freaking catchy.
Thank God the Legacy Collection has rewind. Yes I used it, but I'm also working on a regular play through on my NES classic mini
But when it didn’t (it was added in 2018 or 19) ooh boy
Aquela fase que o Megaman tem que ser o próprio Quick Man ou não termina. 😆 Essa música... 😍
Sim 😄
Nostalgia desses tempos
I feel like something’s missing here but I can’t quite say what…. Must be in my head.
*Screeching laser noises*
*Yellow death laser noises.*
They tryna be BWOOOOP
They tryna be BWOOOOP
That bitch is a (death sound)
Choose your Destiny:
Use Time Stopper for the 2nd set of Quick Lasers or use Time Stopper for Quick Man?
I choose option 3: Start the game with QuickMan.
use it for lasers
Wow,what an amazing song for an amazing stage!
Watch out for those death beams!!! It's very very deadly!!!
*fucking dies by a random golden stick coming out of the wall*
I can still hear those lasers 😂
The erraticness of this theme, the speed at which the poor NES had to process everything on-screen, I can think of nothing more fitting for a boss names *Quick* Man.
Also: His BN2 redesign is just him but bigger and HOLY HELL is he fast in that game.
Quickman my beloved
I can still hear the lasers in my head
The sound of the Last stage to complete bc it's the most PAINFUL one of the entire game, even the boss hurts!!!
I can practically HEAR those insta-kill laser beams... 😳
No other map in any other game I have played gives me that “you’re already dead” feeling depending on how I entered the screen.
It's somewhat weird to listen to this without the "Whoooop" laser sound.
Or “BEWWW BEWWW bewww bewww beww…”, the sound of Mega Man dying to said lasers.
Fr
''HOW HE DO DAT?''
Egoraptor
Hell and back to beat this game
I tried to make a best of mega man playlist but I realized it was just the whole thing
THE LASERS AHHHHHHHHHHHH
THE BOSS AHHHHHHHHH
THE MUSIC AHHHHHHHH
Those lasers can go to hell...
Those damn lasers...
My favorite soundtrack
I fucking love the mega man 2 soundtrack .. this song , metal man stage , airman and Dr. Willy fortress are my favs
If you played this game with the Game Genie, it fucked with the sound, it was just something that happened with some games, but it made this particular song sound next level.
Gonna use Laser Mechakoopas in the new SMM2 update to bring back the terror of this stage
When I listen to this it sounds like the first part of each measure is rushed and then the last part is normal, I like that
Quickman SAMBA!
The extra guy that the developers threw in as a trap 😂😂😂😂
Quick man: One of Frisk helpers he helps by throwing his quick boomerang to make enemies attacks down here is a picture of frisk borrowing sans’s tricycle very quick and quick man running quick
0:25 reminds me of something but I can't put my finger on it.
I swear this soundtrack gave birth to the entire EDM genre.
this is the best mega man theme ever
*literally almost nobody can even past the lasers from his stage*
@Demian Soltero But you will lose to more of them
I can’t help but wonder now if these tracks are somewhat biographical of the robot MM is ordered to destroy. This track really cries out a story of how Quickman was created and existed up to this point. Real interesting, I might even write my own story about each robot in MM2 based on their stage music.
The theme sounds heroic and miserable at the same time
Lasers... The lasers are coming
Rip Amazon...With Unfortunate Wall Spikes.
I Struggled on the Yellow Lasers which made i died on every single time
If i'm not wrong, the lasers only take half of your health in the japanese version instead of killing you instantly like the amarican version.
Which is odd considering the American version added essentially an easy mode called “Normal” while Hard difficulty was the original Japanese version
I just tried his stage in an emulator of the Japanese version, they still instantly kill you
that deadly fart laser beam!.... XD

still think about those lasers in this game. smh lost so many lives...
I always saved Quick Man for last, since the stage was so intimidating, and the idea of having to fight Quick Man any earlier than last was terrifying.
Now I start with Quick Man because I find both the stage and boss fight to be really fun Buster Only.
Ahhh the sound of childhood trauma.
Those yellow lasers...they're gonna eat me
*Song from Heaven. Level from Hell.*
I haven't played this game in years.
I still remember the sound effect of those lasers. May God save us all.
I wish the guy who made the fast yellow insta-kill lasers a very unpleasant evening. I wish the guy who brought it back for Mega Man X5 an equally unpleasant evening.
