  1. It looks incredible, sounds great, and plays beautifully...what's not to love? If you haven't yet tried out this excellent series, this is the best game to start on.
  2. More accessible than ever. [Dec 2005, p.124]

    A sequel should use the foundation laid down by the games that came before it in order to leap forward. MMZ4, if anything, is a step backward.
  4. I don't care how good the gameplay is - it's been done to death. It's like releasing the game of checkers over and over with different colored game pieces.

    Tha game's plot is perfectly excecuted, and gameplay is magnificent. the bosses and music are top-grade, and the new Zero Knuckle adds some thrill into the game. What bugs me is the easiness. What used to be the hardest game I own (Before I got into gaming.), is now possibly the easiest game ever, besides ZX. Collapse

    For the first time I feel as though a Megaman Zero game has balanced it's difficulty. Slowly as the series has progressed, things have gotten easier, and this game is the most accessible yet. The plot is bitter-sweet, but it seems to bring closure to the Zero series - something Capcom is not known to do with a popular franchise. Expand
