THE GOOD:Longer and deeper than the original. Good graphics. Excellent controls. Passwords for saving game.
THE BAD:
A little too difficult at times. The password system is complex.
SUMMARY:
The sequel to the first Mega Man expanded greatly on the original while keeping the same storyline generally-although beaten once, Dr. Wily is back for more. This time he's got 8 new robots to send after Megaman and Dr. Light.
The first notable improvement in gameplay is the game itself is longer-8 stages at first instead of the first game's 6. This makes for more possible paths through the stages and greatly increased challenges and replay value. They're also tougher as well, especially if you don't do them in just the right order. Additionally, a new item, the Energy Tank, debuts in this game, which acts like a mini-extra life and adds further to the strategy.
Graphics, sound, and control are all the same as before-no real improvement in graphics...
