  1. If you can stomach or even master the unforgiving battle conditions, it's a good game with an okay story and good combat.
  2. Pretty much the same game as it's predecessors, MegaMan Battle Network 5 - Team Protoman offers little innovation, but exceptional gameplay for those whose interest it sparks.
  3. Improves on the features that were introduced in the previous game and implements some new features that longtime fans should appreciate. On the other hand, it also retains the same graphics, audio, and basic game design that have been with the series since its inception roughly four years ago.
  4. If you're looking for a reinvention of the franchise, you'd best spend your money elsewhere. [Aug 2005, p.108]

  3. Awesome game.
  4. 5
    This isn't the horrible atrocity that is battle Network 4, but the same crisis scenarios are matched with the different navis depending on the version you buy. Musicwise aside from the internet theme, the soundtrack is laughable at best. Capcom could've truly done better if they went back to the formula and graphics used in Battle Networks 1-3, hell if they did the series would probably still be around and selling! Expand
