Mega Man 10 retains the 8-bitish graphical style and gameplay of its predecessor Mega Man 9 and the old NES titles.
Mega Man must fight eight violent robots to retrieve the machine and save the world. Wily claims to have built a medicine making machine to cure the epidemic, but it has been stolen by the berserk robots. Humankind would be helpless enough without the aid of their robot assistants - but the worst is yet to come! The second phase of the illness causes the infected robots to turn against their masters and try to take over the world! Dr. A virus called Roboenza starts infecting robots, rendering them useless. Luckily these trial and error spots are few and far between and overall we're left with a great classic Mega Man game that's more than worthy of your $10.20XX. Really my only complaints are that the jump from easy to normal is ridiculous, the controls can at times be frustrating (but that's more to do with the Xbox's horrible D-Pad than the game itself I suppose), a couple of the weapons are awkward to use and the game features a few "classic" Nintendo "eff you" moments where you drop down a screen only to land on a completely unavoidable spike. Plus the addition of Protoman from the get-go, challenge stages, time attack and mostly attainable achievements really up the replay value.
Like Mega Man 9 this game features tons of nostalgic charm, good level design, creative enemies and a stellar soundtrack. While it doesn't quite live up to MM1-3, this game is still an absolutely fantastic addition to the Mega Man library and a must-buy for fans While it doesn't quite live up to MM1-3, this game is still an absolutely fantastic addition to the Mega Man library and a must-buy for fans of the original NES games.
