Mega Man Battle Network 2

"Megaman is back and better than ever!"

This is a great game for people of all ages! Even though it has some cussing in it it's not bad. If you haven't played Megaman Battle Network 1, get it and play it first or else you might not understand this one. If you have played Megaman Battle Network 1 and liked it you will love this game!

Graphics: 10/10: WOW! These GBA graphics are probably one of the best I've seen so far! The backgrounds are amazing, the people and Navi's look real, and the viruses are very well designed. You will see how well the bosses are designed as they look extremely cool.

Sound: 10/10: Just like the graphics the sound is amazing! The boss music is great! Even more improved than the first one! The fighting music is fabulous and so is the overall music! The soft music is very detailed and so is the danger music.

Control: 18/20: The control is amazing as well! B is to shoot, A is to use Battle Chips. There are over 250 different battle chips! They are all pretty easy to use but some you have to get used to. Later on you hold B to charge your shot. The controls are not very hard to get used to at all!

Gameplay: 28/30: Gameplay is great! You mainly try to get to the boss by fighting viruses and using some strategy. Each stage is different and has great music. You can also try to get different kinds of licenses to unlock different things! The gameplay is excellent as you do many exciting things!

Challenge: 12/15: Yes this game is actually pretty hard. Some parts take a while but pretty soon you will probably get them figured out. You have to level up Megaman with HPmemories (increaes HP) and with Powerups. (upgrades one of Megaman's stats.) You will probably need to upgrade your chips a bit by defeating viruses and getting their chips.

Replay: 13/15: The replay is actually pretty good! You can try to get your S, SS, or SSS license. You can try to collect all the battle chips or complete all the Program Advances. You might want to get different styles if you want. You can also focus on getting all 5 stars. When that happens something exciting happens.

Well, let's check this out.
Overall: 91/100. 91% out of 100%

Buy or Rent: Buy! Buy! Buy! It's features will amaze you and of course keep you playing for a long time! If you rent it, you might not get everything done and you will probably not be able to have time to do the other stuff.
