This week's g1 Submission comes from g1 Knothole Resident who has exposed us to a pretty rad band that we haven't heard from before this video- The Megas. While, to be honest, the video is a play through on Heat Man's stage, the tune by itself is rad enough for the watch.

actualy, seeing as it's not only heat mans area, but also heat mans tune I would think its heat man of mega man2 and not the original fire man. also i realize it says fire MUCH more than heat, but it seems more like it would be heat man.

Honestly, the video needs some better work...that or someone playing with better kick ass skills to make it improved. :P Other than, enjoyed the music, but I wished it was more related to games. I often love music connected to VG like Can't Beat Air Man. Keep up the good work!
Finally have a Wii and online!

The song was great but sounds like everything in the world today.
As for the person that played it your uber lucky that u had an emulator because i could almost swear that you barely made it through the game and even than the gameplay was newb at best.

Obviously this guy had some difficulty with the disappearing blocks. It probably actually him a substantial amount of time to get past that particular part.
Besides this, the playing isn't too bad. They actually did an entire album based on covering Mega Man 2, which I like as a concept. They also extended certain portions of the songs without sounding horrendously obtuse.
Also note that the lyrics have plenty to do with the game, it's Heat Man supposedly singing.
Also: I own their shirt, and am apparently the only person in Oregon to do so, as the state on their map on their MySpace turned blue after I bought the shirt.
That rocked.
I really enjoyed the song, it was well made.
Although it had nearly nothing to do with Megaman.
The video was okay, but the Megaman skills could be better.
why does everyone keep saying the song is good??
i think it sucks a lot. it's not the band, i just can't stand alternative with punk or whatever the hell that was.

Solid song and a decent gameplay video. I suck at megaman though so I can't really bash your skills or anything like that. The song itself was pretty good. I think if it was done in a top notch studio it would be even better, but any music about or involving videogames that's good enough to pass of as music is cool in my book. Good job Knothole Resident.

The people playing the instruments were pretty good, but the vocals didn't really seem to keep the flow/pace of the song. I did check out the Metal Man video, and it was definately better in terms of a catchy tune, relevance, gameplay, and all that. THAT vid should have been the one posted.

I think this could have been better if they timed the video to the music. Maybe did some epic things like a speed run, no mess-ups. Didn't get a sense of timing from the video.
That... was a different g1
That... was a different g1 submission, oh well that's just my usual expectation of hearing voices ~_~. Love the music btw.
what?
what is the song talking about? It's a good song, but it has nothing to do with megaman, until thaey say megaman for what seems to be no reason.
Just an idea
I think the song is suggesting what megaman is going through, so while not quoting many things from the game its still about it.
Fireman
its Fireman singing about fighting Megaman
HEAT man
actualy, seeing as it's not only heat mans area, but also heat mans tune I would think its heat man of mega man2 and not the original fire man. also i realize it says fire MUCH more than heat, but it seems more like it would be heat man.
Video needs some major work...

Nice Track
That's a nice track. I'll hope to hear more...

Not too bad, although the lyrics remind me a lot of MC 900 Ft Jesus' "While the City Sleeps."
And the player needs to learn how to overcome the shifting blocks section, something fierce.
But, as a cover of Heat Man's theme, it was pretty cool. I enjoyed it.
...
that was uhh...
different...
Seriously ScrewAttack was this the best G1 submission Sunday you could find?
Whoever was playing sucks at
Whoever was playing sucks at megaman.
Agreed
Especially at the disappearing blocks.
Also, needs more Metal Blades for more Epic Win. A Megaman 2 video without Metal Blades is a Sin against Capcom.
Agreed.
God I remember that pattern from long ago. I was practically yelling and laughing at my screen at the same time.
If only I were deaf
This is painfull. Poop for the ears.
sucks
i dont like this..one of the worst submissions, get a little more creative then playing horrible and slapping a song on to it
This
Reply to aunitleader - Thats what I thought. Anyone can play music over gameplay, I was hoping for something more unique and special...
Great song SHIT video.

Anyone else notice?
He just skipped out the last section of dissapearing blocks and went straight to the boss battle. I'm guessing he messed up a bit there.
Too much trouble

Skillz
The guy playing the game for the vid wasn't very good at it.
I always found Heat Man's stage nails
I think I mite go play mega man 2 on my wii now.
Come join the fun at wonderwallweb.com

Awesome
Veeeeeery nice Track,but they suck at Megaman 2 !
Wasn't my cup of tea to be
Wasn't my cup of tea to be honest. Just reminds me of some bands I don't listen to generally.
Well
Well, that sure was different

Not the Sort of stuff i'd listen to but it wasn't bad.
Umm....
Yeah. I just stopped after the main chorus.
Who is responsible for choosing submission sunday? jeez...
Alright
not my time of music but still good i guess.
The gameplay
man the dude or girl thats plays to the song was relly bad nad the song was not a favorit ether
Megas!
I'm glad to see The Megas get a little recognition. They're a good band, they do all the Megaman 2 songs. ALL OF THEM.
That was pretty good, I'm
That was pretty good, I'm not sure how a band like that would work...
Well...
That was a little different than the other submissions. It's not as bad as some people are saying though IMO.
Great!
This is just great! The song fits the stage just perfect!
Hate is just the kind of love you give to idiot people
Neat
It was more entertaining than a lot of other G1 Submission Sundays.
They picked a g1 video just
They picked a g1 video just because they put a song in it?

It was good, but can be better!
I believe the gameplay could've been a lot better, and you could've put some effort into the editing.
The song was decent enough...
but sadly the video it is paired could have been a lot better and frankly drags the song down because of it...
Boring
I just didnt like the video the song was under par but because it was based on mega man it was alright
song kicked ass
I thought the song rocked! Although the lyrics for me did seem a bit weird and out of place :S
It was pretty good. Wasn't
It was pretty good. Wasn't digging the song to much, but still good.
-8-bit since '86
Good
That was a good song.
Not bad; needs work

I agree, the Metal Man video
I agree, the Metal Man video is much better.
Needs a bit more "epic"

Nice
That video was nice and the music was awesome.
ok
Nice music :D but could have been a little more creative ^^
