Mega Man You can buy it if you click on the picture. |
Story is just about trying to stop Dr. Wily from taking over the world (just like every Mega Man game out there).
Controls are simple. A to jump, B to shoot.
This game was revolutionary when it first came out. Choosing what level you want first? Taking the boss's weapon? Using weapons other than attacking? It was one of the first revolutionary video games back then. Unlike every other Mega Man game after it, there are only 6 bosses (besides Wily Castle Bosses). Another thing, there are no Energy Tanks, so I hope you're really good at jumping and shooting, cause it'll come in handy. Another thing I should point out, the game is very VERY hard. Levels are very well designed, but they're incredibly difficult.
It feels a little weird playing this Mega Man game after Mega Man 2. There are a ton of differences! But the game is still fun and challenging. If you're looking for a challenging game that is very fun, Mega Man is for you! Another thing, Mega Man has a good frame rate, which is odd because this game came out in 1987. Sure, the frame rate will go down a little when there's too much on screen, but I think the frame rate is better than Mega Man 2.
Now lets point out some bad things.
One of my complaints is its infuriating difficulty.Thankfully there are only 6 bosses. (Not counting Wily Castle Bosses, and those are all easy.......sure I died about 10 times before I beat them.....)
My second complaint is that.....well.....once you're done playing it, you probably won't want to play it again unlike the other 9 Mega Man games. (I've played 2, 9, 10, and I'm going to get 3, but I've played all those more than once and I plan on playing them all again).
Overall, Mega Man is a good game, but I would have to say it's not for everyone. Only video gamers who can take having a few game overs and difficult platforming.
This game gets an
8.5/10 A good game with a few flaws.
Until next reviews......
