  • Summary: Mega Man and his Battle Network pal Lan are in trouble again. It's only been a month since the evil WWW terrorist's attempts to hijack an important military satellite was shut down; and yet, Cyberspace is about to be hit by an even more resilient, never-before-seen virus, codenamed "Zero." It's up to you, Lan, and Mega Man to terminate this seemingly impermeable and decidedly relentless new enemy. Collect battle chips, battle enemies, solve puzzles, and uncover secret characters from the Mega Man universe.… Expand

    Would I be getting a great classic Mega Man game with minimal Role Playing Game elements, or would I get more of a true Battle Network type game? I was quite satisfied to find out that this game has a near perfect balance of both.

    This wonderful plot, as charming and exciting as it may be, sadly interferes with what was once a staple of the franchise, the ability to play the first 8 stages in the order you desire.

    The action is addictive enough to try and finish it, which will take about 15 hours.

    Mega Man the side-scroller – a classic. Mega Man Battle Network – a good RPG. Mix the two together – a slow-paced, awkward Mega Man title that doesn't live up to the series' name.

    This was, in my opinion, such a fantastic and perfect blend of old school side scrolling MegaMan with the Battle Network system. Arika couldnt have given me a better MegaMan game. Network Transmission updates EVERYTHING about classic MegaMan, great side scrolling levels, great cel shaded graphics, fun weapon chips to use, and one of the best music soundtracks of ANY MegaMan game (thier insanely catchy). A good word to the wise though, the game is EXTREMELY HARD, probably the hardest MegaMan game to have come out in the entire MegaMan series ( yes even the X series). But overall i enjoyed the game tremendously from beginning to end. My 3rd favorite MegaMan game ever, which is only next to MegaMan 8 and MegaMan X… Expand

    Although somewhat frustrating in the beginning, if you can stick with it past Gutsman, you will find an amazing blend of 2D platforming with the psuedo-turn-based-RPG elements from the Battle Network series. I just wish they had used the English dub voices from the anime instead of sticking with the Japanese voices that I can't understand.… Expand

    I love the battle mode, but the game is way to difficult for just an recreational gamer. It took me quit a few tries to just get past the first level!!!!… Expand
