Mega Man Zero 2

"Zero's back to well you know"

I found this to be a really great game. Took me a while to get it but I don't regret it. Its very improved over the original (is one way of putting it). You get different armors in this game. Wow.
Story:9/10
Okay I don't no to much of the story except Zero walks around in a desert. Then a army of X clones walks up. He throws off his blanket and makes a cool pose (again sort of). After you beat the beefed up Golems and get to the end he faints. Then Ciel finds him and now you are in a more Megaman X like game.
Gameplay:10/10
This is by far much better than the first. You don't select where you want to go anymore. You select which boss stage to go to. Sound familiar. You can even start off with your weapons from the original. The only downside is there is an excessive amount of talking. Zero now can get new armors. Not really new armors just different colors of the suit that boost different abilities. Still remains true to the original MMX games. You fight your way the dozens of enemies, rescue some people, gain energy tanks, and beat the snot out of the bosses.
Graphics and Sound:9/10
This game looks really good. I like the short cut scenes and images they added in. It still has the some what out of place blood coming from mavericks but it's still okay with me. The music is amazing. When Zero whips off the cover that shields him from the sandstorm the music really fits the new Zero. Some music was put in from the first but not much at all. I would like to hear Zero's them from the Super Nintendo X games though.
Replayability:10/10
Even though the game is in Japanese and I can't read much of it. It doesn't get old after beating it so many times. You always want to come back for more of it. It plays just like the original Megaman X games and that's something I'm glad they put in. It always is fun and you'll never forget to pack it to somewhere that you'll wait I while to eat, etc.
Final:10/10
A great game to take on the go and have portable Megaman X fun. If you liked the first or the original X games this is the game for you. A definite buy for any side scroller fan or Megaman fan.
