    The game is one of the hardest in the series, the bosses are still awesome and the old-school challenges will keep you pulling your hair out for months.

    Mega Man 10 is a wonderfully challenging package wrapped up in a charming, 8-bit time capsule. It has its tongue planted firmly in cheek and delivers a ridiculously fun experience for all.

    With all of that said (and for 800 Microsoft points), Mega Man 10 is still a fantastic download for three demographics: those who are hardcore Mega Man fans, those who have never played Mega Man at all, and those who are face-punching masochists.

    The 10th installment in this long-running franchise proves that some formulas don't need to change.

    Overall, while the game is still a great Mega Man title, it doesn't nearly live up to the fun of its predecessor.

    Another tortuously brutal NES-styled slice of gaming masochism for the hardest of the hardcore. [July 2010, p.121]

    While it doesn't quite live up to MM1-3, this game is still an absolutely fantastic addition to the Mega Man library and a must-buy for fansWhile it doesn't quite live up to MM1-3, this game is still an absolutely fantastic addition to the Mega Man library and a must-buy for fans of the original NES games. Like Mega Man 9 this game features tons of nostalgic charm, good level design, creative enemies and a stellar soundtrack. Plus the addition of Protoman from the get-go, challenge stages, time attack and mostly attainable achievements really up the replay value. Really my only complaints are that the jump from easy to normal is ridiculous, the controls can at times be frustrating (but that's more to do with the Xbox's horrible D-Pad than the game itself I suppose), a couple of the weapons are awkward to use and the game features a few "classic" Nintendo "eff you" moments where you drop down a screen only to land on a completely unavoidable spike. Luckily these trial and error spots are few and far between and overall we're left with a great classic Mega Man game that's more than worthy of your $10.… Expand

Disregarding the fact that it's an almost unoriginal direct copy and paste game the design of every level is pretty bad. Most of the enemies are unusually unfair and almost impossible to dodge, the platforms are always either too far apart or too close. Unlike former games in the series Mega Man 10 has no gradual difficulty ramp. In mere seconds the levels go from basic to abnormal and new things are introduced without teaching you how they work. Looking at this game critically without nostalgia in mind it very much is just a bad title with more anger and frustration than anything.… Expand
