The Mega Man series is one of the most exciting action video games! The characters, the action, and the sure thrill of excitement makes this game a fun non-stop playing time! Below is a brief look how I think the game is!

Game Play: The game play is very good. There is really basic controls here and is easy to perform. Novice gamers should have a good time here!

Music: The music is great! Just fantastic catchy tunes through out the game! In My opinion its some of the best music ever in a video game!

Sound: The sound is great. Nuff said!

Overall: I have always loved Mega Man 2! If you like shooting and fighting action adventure games then I strongly recommend you play this game!

Mega Man 2 for the NES is one of the best 8-bit games ever released! When I was ten (1990) I bought the first Mega Man game there ever was. This game was very addictive and made me an instant Mega Man fan. Before 1990 had ended I read a preview of MM2. I couldn't believe my eyes! A sequel was being made of my favorite game! As soon as it was released (early 1991) I bought a copy of it, and played it. I never stopped playing it. MM2 boasts some brilliant music! Most tunes are world famous now, and every Mega Man fan can hum these tunes. Especially Dr. Wily's Castle tune, which seems to be the best Mega Man tune ever! The graphics MM2 shows are of extreme high quality. It puts a lot of 16-bit games and even some 32-bit and 64-bit games to shame! The graphics are very clear and the use of colours in the background is very detailed and a pleasure to look at.

In total there are eight levels to conquer before you can fight the master mind Dr. Wily. In the first Mega Man game Dr. Wily reprogrammed six of his peaceful robots to conquer the world. In total seven were made, but the protagonist of both games, Mega Man managed to escape the clutches of the evil Wily. It is now Mega Man's duty to defeat Wily for a second time and destroy his new eight robotic minions. Each robot has its own stage and Mega Man has to beat go through the entire stage to battle a robot master. Once a robot master is defeated Mega Man can use the power of its defeated opponent to battle other robots.

Although it sounds all rather easy, it's not. Try to pass Heatman's schasm of fire or pass Quickman's deadly laser beams! This game will get you hooked instantly. Not only by its outstanding graphical and musical quality, but by its playability as well! Controlling Mega Man is a piece of cake, within no time you can make him run, jump and shoot! All in all a must have for every NES owner, but I guess every NES owner already has this game in his collection!

This is a series that I never stuck with through its myriad sequels . . .

But there was always "Mega Man 2".

It was the title that everyone around you had in their collection, and if you owned (hell, or were even interested in) an NES, this was on your to-do list. Beautiful aesthetic, great soundtrack, hard as hell.

And I remember it being a *little* bit easier because now I suck at it. I can't pretend to be skilled but the dying part sure comes easy.

Still, the blue bomber is an icon, and I think it's due to this game right here. Once you hear that epic fight music at the title screen, you are ready to go.

I commenting Mega Man 2 after beating it a lot of years since I beat it the first time. Thanks to Console Emulation I am living again the experience of playing gems like this baby. I am surprised to see how amazingly addictive this games are still to this day.

Mega Man 2 is not only a sequel made to cash-out the success of the first Mega Man is a step forward in many aspects. More user friendly than Mega 1, this game has a system of password-saving that lets the gamer save his progress without having to play the game in its entirety every time. Also Mega Man 2 is not as difficult as the first one because the worlds of Dr. Willy's creations are easy to learn and memorize. In all I believe some people may be frustrated because there are many things and processes to memorize (jump that, don't jump that; use that weapon with that enemy, learn the AI patron of that other one)and also some good reflexes are needed of course. But that's the entertaining side of this thing after all.

Almost twenty years later Mega Man 2 with simple sprite-animation can give me more hours of enjoyment than many modern hits with incredibly astounding 3D Animation. But not always the better-looking game is the best game. I can't rate it with any other number than ten. Capcom scores another victory with this one (I lose the count of how many great games they have released throughout the years). Without a doubt my favorite from the Mega Man series for the NES system.

After being defeated by Mega Man and thrown into prison, Dr. Wily seeks revenge. He busts out of jail, and creates 8 robots of his own. Bubbleman, an aquatic robot; Airman, master of wind; Quickman, robot who can run with great speed and has speedy boomerangs as a weapon; Heat Man, another robot of fire that has the shape of a cigarette lighter; Woodman, who can be shielded by the forces of nature; Metalman, a master of sprockets and machinery; Flashman, a robot who can freeze objects in place and attack; and Crashman, a robot with drill-shaped missiles. The new features this game provides are:

Password: you are now able to record your progress and don't have to start all over everytime

Energy Tanks: they refill your energy when needed

Item (1,2,3:) inventions by Dr. Light that you are given after beating Heatman, Airman, and Flashman. They allow you to reach new areas, and are necessary at some parts of Dr. Wily's castle

Challenge Level: You can set the challenge as either normal or difficult when you turn on the game

I still prefer the original over this one, but Mega Man 2 is an ultimate classic, and doesn't disappoint in any way. If you are only going to get 3 Mega Man games out of the whole series, get the first 2 as well as Mega Man X for the Super Nintendo.
