Mega Man Anniversary Collection Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was a kid when the Mega Man games first came out for Nintendo. The only ones I ever played were 2, 3, and 4, and we only owned 2. Still, I couldn't wait for this game to come out. Us poor Xbox owners had to wait 9 months past the release date for PS2 and GC, but it was well worth it. That said, I love this game.

A big part of my love for this game is nostalgia. Playing these old games again really takes me back. However, there is something else. These games are FUN!!!My biggest complaint about modern games is the lack of replay value. That is not the case with this game. I can play Mega Man over and over and not get bored. In recent months, I have found myself dusting off the Nintendo and playing Mega Man 2, years after I had first beaten it. Now, I can play them all forever on Xbox.

Also, kudos to Capcom for leaving the games unaltered. There is an optional Navi Mode that gives you tips during play, slightly changes the weapons menu, and provides remixed music for many of the levels, but I don't use it unless I want to hear the new music. The old school grphics and music are great.

Also, the buttons for the Xbox version are in their correct places. I have played the GC version and the buttons are switched! I shot when I wanted to jump and jumped when I wanted to shoot. No such problem on the Xbox. However, if you want the buttons switched, there are four different controller configurations to choose from. I also hear that the PS2 buttons are in their correct places.

In conclusion, I definitely recommend this game for those familiar with the old school Nintendo versions and for new gamers as well. They have great replay value, and for 20 bucks, how can you go wrong?
