Not gonna lie, this is my favorite battle (not theme) in the entire series. You fight a dark version of yourself. He's not one of those fights where he's somehow stronger you, despite being the same thing. No, he's got the same health as you, same customs, same move and attack pattern and can use every battlechip you've ever used. He's literally a Megaman controlled by an AI.
@@shidfard5363 I love how this game unintentionally showed that by showing you how many dark chips you can get by doing side quest. I felt terrible when I resorted to use them and how everyone had them. Duo was right. There is evil
late as fuck response, but anyways, it's prolly because BN4 has a different composer from the other Battle Network games. BN1 and 5 were by Akari Kaida and BN2, 3, and 6 were done by Yoshino Aoki, and the two of them had already collaborated together on games like Breath of Fire 3 so they probably understood each other's style. I honestly forgot the name of the guy who did BN4, but iirc, unlike Kaida and Aoki who really only did BN and Starforce, he was already a veteran composer for older Mega Man games like 7 and X4.
Toshihiko Horiyama is the composer for this game IIRC; and like you said, I think this was the only time he ever composed for the BN series, so naturally the composing style of this game would be different from the rest since most of the main BN games were done by only two composers, and people were already getting used to their respective composition style lol Also shoutouts to Yusuke Beppu (MMBCC composer) and the SuperSweep team of composers (who composed for MMNT; consists of Yousuke Yasui, Shinji Hosoe and Ayako Saso, two names which may be familiar to people who are really into VGM) for also being different composers to Kaida and Aoki lol
@@MegaExE feels good to run into them. Unless you're just trying to waltz through. I can't count how many times I've accidentally ran into SparkManΩ...
damn this bring memories,I remember this was my first and only mmbn game, I remember that after a while the game stopped saving so if I get deleted or the battery runs out I repeat from the start so I was feeling every battle,I must have been psycho for managing keep playing like this until I finished the game XD
@@TheBanishedWind You could argue that MegaMan saw himself in every single boss that he fought in that game (ex: 6 Navis made up his soul unison, other Navis had memorable events, NormNavis/HeelNavis fought and used Battlechips (first and only game where they were in battle) similarly to MegaMan, ShadeMan was a part of the Darkside, someone trying to awaken MegaMan's DarkSoul, LaserMan used MegaMan's DarkSoul against him, MegaMan DS was his DarkSoul). So every time he fought, he was technically fighting against a part of himself (DarkSoul included, even when he was fighting others, as it was his battle experience that made his DarkSoul what it was).
The best boss theme in the series, shame it wasn't used very much unless you count the omega boss encounters in playthroughs 3+ The soundtrack and the composer's choice of instruments was a step above the rest of the series too, even if the game itself isn't.
Omega bosses can be found right after their fixed battle, though. I've been hunting all the ones that appeared on Normal mode (playthrough 1) while being Dark Mega, and I found Shademan, Gutsman and Roll Omega before going Dark.
+Marioguy92 3rd is my favorite because of how much shit you can do in it. Speaking of, my friend wants to create a mod where any exclusive chips for either game can be accessed on both versions.
That actually sounds like a good idea. Because if I'm not mistaken, Blue had slightly more content than White (I had White). 3 was okay IMO, but Drill Man really drove me crazy when I made it to him.
Wow brings back memories of fighting Bass for Delta force Giga chip. Man some fun times. gotta say when trying time trials on the S chips to make power higher, this music sure knew how to get you're heart rushing as you dodge everything and come back full force for an S rank attempt!
I think this was my first battle network game dont quite remeber but i do remember that sick soundtrack vs a copy of myself i was shook , its you vs you at the end of the day.
My brother didn't understand how holy tile worked until dark clone kept putting it on his side of the feild (having learned that from him) and then Duo kept giving him a spot to heal.
I wish there were more than just 1 dark megaman fights. It would have been cool to have him be a reccuring fight, popping up at random during boss stages, like a Bass fight but slightly easier.
I know BN4 is a hot mess but this boss theme is still my favorite. Plus...the wind-up for the song being - on average - about how long it takes to select your first chips is a *really* nice touch. The beat drops JUST as the battle begins~
Air hockey is broken as fuck. I'm surprised they kept them for 5 and 6. They even kept the PA, Pit Hockey which does ridiculous amounts of damage, AND you can combo into it with White capsule. BN6 baby.
I feel like non tournament navis fit this theme better, and the tournament navis should always have that theme in a fight. When they overlap, it just doesn't seem right (fighting alpha and beta versions to this theme). There are two exceptions: Windman and Topman. They fit both themes perfectly.
@@ArcHourGaming >let's be real Okay Main Theme(title aka the Hero theme) Vs Duo(Duo battle) Cyber Battle(Net Battle) Battle Pressure (Tournament Battle) Battle Against Myself (Boss theme) Save Our Planet(MeteorComp theme) Navi Customizer Some say the Undernet theme is good That looks like more than 3.
Pandachu123 Heatman only appears in BN2 and BN6 and in neither of these games he hacks a sole thing. However ,in this game,Burnman and Fireman enter in a struggle which causes the net to go on fire.And in BN1,Fireman tries to burn down Lan's house.
It's because most of the things are just fetch quest that are so unnecessary it angers you and most of the characters are nobodies. The ending was great switching from character to character but gawd everything else. Also the maps are shit. Just Google the maps for this game *DO IT*

You don't like Surge of Power (Battle Network 6 Boss)?
@@ChrisMcNellie like I said, this is my favorite battle in the entire series, not battle theme
@@floricel_112 I'm just saying, that was my favorite track from the series. This one is my second favorite.
As a fellow member of the 112 race, I concur with your assessment.
Duo in the normal MM timeline: I'm here to destroy the evil energy
Duo in the BN timeline: I'm here to destroy planets
Togepi1234 Gaming oops. Bn4 had such a weird plot.
I mean, if I'm remembering correctly he was on his way to destroy earth because of the evil he detected on the planet.

@@shidfard5363 but there is a side quest where you can heal darksoul
Just came here for a dose of nostalgia. Dark Megaman was one of the coolest things in my childhood lmao.
have you read the manga? dark megaman is a complete bastard in the manga, its so voilent
It was hilarious using him for the first time and getting the flower pot charge attack 😂😂😂
i love the dramatic opening
*I am thou... Thou art I...*
***** lol remind me persona 4 xD
I am a Shadow the true self
All we needed, it's a Persona 4 Boss Battle and then it will perfect.
Wrong franchise, guys.
Slurps why does persona remind me of battle network
ooooowh the chills I felt when this played. my first battle configuring and dodging setting up my next move.
0:27 to 0:40...Laserman's freeze frame laser went perfect with this part.
This is the only game in the series that has different vibe from others.
+Holy Demon/Hypocrite Anti Dragon yes it does...
+Holy Demon/Hypocrite Anti Dragon
Totally agree, there was definitely a somber undertone to the whole game, in its aesthetics and music.

This is always gonna be one of the best battle themes every !!
“MegaMDS”
Flitting all over the battlefield using my shit. All the while I’m like, damn son I’m that strong??😂😂
Enemy moves to center panel, about to attack
SuprVulc V + Attack +30 -> COUNTER HIT!
AirHoc3 V x3 -> ENEMY DELETED
u wot, m8?
I pictured that so vividly despite having not played the game in years.
I ran W code so I just used regular Vulcan3, and stuck the attack up on the AirHocs instead.
DoubleSoul MetalSoul => Invis => DoublePoints => Charge SuperVulc V + Attack +30 => 1600 Damage => color points => BassAnaly => Bass deleted
Too bad AirHoc3 V can only be obtained more than once by chip trader, or cheats.
Me: I have like 500 hp please don't run into Bass XX... just trying to use the bugfrag chip trader *boss music plays* motherfu-Ahh good times

"Megaman, battle routine set!"
"Execute!"
*_WHHEEEE-HEE-HEEEEEEE!!!_*
Doesn't feel right without the Dark Chip's pulsing effect, now that sound was temptation.
I saw a playthrough where the player only had 1 hp and only used dark chips... seriously overpowered.
Wasn't a fan of MMBN 4, but fighting Laserman to this theme was fun. The tournament theme and Duo's theme were really good too
Those percussion though...
Mighty AF, arent they? lol

Battle With Myself.... Oh! Of course! MegaMan.EXE Vs DarkMegaMan.EXE obviously XD
Was it so hard for the devs to have a separate track for either the regular bosses or for MegaMan DS?
@@TheBanishedWind You could argue that MegaMan saw himself in every single boss that he fought in that game (ex: 6 Navis made up his soul unison, other Navis had memorable events, NormNavis/HeelNavis fought and used Battlechips (first and only game where they were in battle) similarly to MegaMan, ShadeMan was a part of the Darkside, someone trying to awaken MegaMan's DarkSoul, LaserMan used MegaMan's DarkSoul against him, MegaMan DS was his DarkSoul).

@@ZascrimShades thing is they have the normal battle theme

Shademan 1
Shademan 2
GutsmanDS/AquamanDS
Megaman DS
Laserman
At least it's used for a decent amount in the story.
boss theme for me is
1
6
2
4
3
5
Omega bosses can be found right after their fixed battle, though. I've been hunting all the ones that appeared on Normal mode (playthrough 1) while being Dark Mega, and I found Shademan, Gutsman and Roll Omega before going Dark.
Even though this is my least favorite BN game, it holds a lot of nostalgic value since it was my first BN game.
4 Was your first battle network game? Dang... I am glad you didn't give up on the series. Some of the music in this game is great though.
+Nathaniel Johnson it's my first one too and it's my second favorite game :P

Technically you get a 2nd harder fight with him in the post game. Dark area 2 I believe
Whole lot of “well shit” when your down on HP and this theme fires up after the encounter noise
This theme is nice.
I like how postgame and alpha/beta/Omega navis aside this only plays for ShadeMan, LaserMan... And GutsManDS/AquaManDS i guess
Ah this battle was amazing.
Hey +Frygoon, I miss the flygon you had as the profile pic. Hope you bring it back soon lol
Essentially you fight a pirated version of yourself.
i just love this song...
I was gonna say he forgot the song where you encounter navis and battle them but I found it
You're right...0_0
Awesome!
Reminds me of Double Dragon Theme
Theme of trying to S-rank Shademan Omega.
Especially trying to not hit the mystery data.
When you realize that you used too many AirHoc and Invis chips...

Bloopidy Heidy That would be Flameman.
Why does everybody hate BN 4?
CoolGuy95 because of the plot and the characters.
......Thanks.I never realized BN 4 was more shitty than BN 5.
Mainly the replays as well. Get's tiring playing the campaign multiple times. It's more a... one time thing then you are done.
It's more than just the plot and characters.
It's because most of the things are just fetch quest that are so unnecessary it angers you and most of the characters are nobodies. The ending was great switching from character to character but gawd everything else. Also the maps are shit. Just Google the maps for this game *DO IT*
