There really are a lot of bad aspects to it, yet it's still fun somehow. Maybe that's because I like a lot of the behind the scenes stuff like the force armor and various different concepts. Again, though, a lot of these are ripped off and usually done better in other games prior to and after this. I got Megaman 9 on XBL and I STILL haven't beaten the 8 bosses yet. This is partially because it's retardedly hard, but also because it actually feels harder than the classics. I don't know, maybe it's just me. I'll probably also get 10 when it comes out. The other Megaman RPGs, especially the two Legends games, were great...so I really have no idea what happened here. It’s kinda one of those guilty pleasures.

Not enough to put me over the edge to purchase it though... It's funny that I spent a retarded amount of my life playing the better NES titles and Capcom was a HUGE part of these. Konami had some good one's as well. Must be out of the loop since I was unaware of the MM RPG stuff. I will always argue that there is a place in gaming for the old school stuff. If you haven't spent a chunk of life playing it, it remains novel. At this point, time travelling doesn't stick well... on to new and flashier things. That being said, if you HAVEN'T ever played the classic style of side-scrollers from the day, heed Gun Sage's words well. These games are unforgiving. You have to be good, there is no escape. If you die, you lose a life. If you run out of lives, you start over. With all of that being said, great obvious review. MegaMan OBVIOUSLY should stay a part of the past, and not become a fucking RPG. Let's take the prefix "re" and attach it to the source word, "tarded." Well done sir. This game sounds like a loser.
