"This is the great battle network game...."

Introduction - This is the great Megaman Battle Network game! This game is the other story of Megaman 4 Battle Network, so if you have played that before, then you would know what's happening in this game. This is just another great game of Capcom. This game brings new chips, but also brings Dark Chips. If you don't know what Dark Chips are, they are powerful chips, but they also make you lose one HP forever. There are also other new features in this game, so you can buy this game and check it out. If you don't like it, you can always return it. Capcom has made a great game this time. I did not expect this much, but Capcom sure showed me. I hope they will make another great game like this one. If you are a big Megaman fan, then you should check this game out. This is something for true Megaman fans. If you like games with fighting or shooting in it, you might also want to check this game out. This game has many things in it, that you would want to find out. If you want to know how the new chips look like, then you should buy this game. There are 180 normal chips to collect in all.

Gameplay 8/10

The gameplay in this game is just fight away. In this game you do not take turns. You use different chips to fight. There are four types of chips, that you can use in this game. They are the following: Standard Chip, Mega Class Chip, Giga Class Chip, Dark Chip. You can also use your Mega Buster, but it's not really that useful. There is also Dubl Soul. Dubl Soul is something, that you can do in the game. When you Dubl Soul, you sort of fuse with another Navi. This can be very useful at times. There is also a thing called Chaos Union, it's a thing where you fuse with your Dark Soul and you friend Navi. Chaos Union, is just like Dubl Soul, but some times can be better. When you use this, you also risk of releasing you dark side.

Story 5/10

The story is to stop Regal. He is planning to work on he's evil plan to make people evil. Your mission is to stop him, but you should also help other people. If you help other people you might get something in return. You will need to defeat some bosses along your way. Some might be hard and some might be easy. The story is interesting, but short. You will have to find a lot of things during your quest, but I won't spoil it for you. If you like interesting story games, then you might want to check out this game.

Sound 4/10

The sounds are not so great. They are mostly repeated. If you don't like the sounds in this game, you can turn it off and turn on your favorite music. If you like repetitive music, then you can listen to the sounds. This is something Capcom did not do too good on. I hope, that Capcom can do a better job on the sounds the next game, that they make.

Graphics 9/10

The graphics in this game are great! They are very detail for a GBA game. I can tell, that Capcom has put time into this. If you like games, that has good graphics, you might want to get this game. This is one of the good things in this great game.

Overall 8/10

This game is very good for Megaman fans. If you like Megaman Battle Network, then you might want to try this game out. The battle system is ok, but it could have been better. The problem with this game is, that the story is too short. If there was a little more into it, that would have been great.

Replayability 9/10

This game is fun to play again, but there are also sidequests, that you can do in this game. If you are bored, you can always replay the whole game over. This is a very interesting game to play over. You might want to play over to collects chips, that you missed. You can always play it over if you feel like it.

Rent or Buy?

I would say, buy. This game is very good for Megaman fans. If you are a huge Megaman fan, then you should add this game to your collection. If you just like RPG games, then you might also want to check out this great game. You might also want to get this game to find the new battle chips. There are many great battle chips to collect in this game.
