REVIEW: Mega Man 2 1988 NES
	By: Capcom Type: Platform Players: 1 Difficulty: Easy-Normal

This is the second game in Capcom's ever popular Mega Man series. This may simple be a NES game, but it is my favorite of the series! Mega Man doesn't have any of his fancy moves like his slide or any robot friends such as Rush or Beat in this adventure.

The plot is as follows : Dr. Wily is seeking revenge after his original defeat. This time he builds 8 robots of his own to challenge Mega Man (in the first game, the robot masters were not his creations). Your goal is to go through the 8 levels and defeat the Robot Master at the end of each level, earning his weapon. Each Robot Master has a pattern and a weakness you can exploit. Then you make the journey through the 5 levels of Skull Castle and finally a final showdown with Wily himself.

The music in this game is awesome! It fits the mood of each level perfectly and will easily stick in your head. The play control is as smooth as ever, just like most Mega Man games. This game is also unique in the fact that their is a normal and difficult mode. Your progress is saved by password.

This game is old and I can beat it in an hour without losing any lives, but I still play it, it's just so much fun! This game addicted me to the Mega Man series. I suggest you give it a spin or you're missing out! - Jeff Robertson 95%
