| Video Game Nostalgia #5 Part 3 - Mega Man Battle Network
Portable gaming was always a big part of my video gaming experience rgrowing up, and one of rrrthe series that ate up a ton of my time with how raddicting it was is the Battle Network rrrsubseries of Mega Man. Exclusively rmade for the Game Boy Advance, the games revolve rrraround main rcharacter Lan and his cyber pal Mega Man. The games constantly switch rrrraround both the human world and the cyber world to give players a rperspective on both. rrrThe enemies consist of computer viruses and Navis, rthe latter being the bosses of the rrrgames. The gameplay deviates from rthe usual Mega Man formula, in that it's an action-RPG rrrinstead of a side-rscrolling shooter, but it's a really cool experiment that worked well rrrrthroughout the series' 6 games. Despite the critics giving many of the rgames mediocre rrrscores for constantly following the first three games' rcommon formula, the only game that rrrtruly annoyed me was 5 (but that's ra story for another day). Overall, the series still holds rup rrand gets a solid r8/10 from me. rIf there's one game that's essential from this series, it rwould rrbe the 3rd rgame because it has the most touching storyline (and not in a sappy rrway) and rrthe boss battles are the most satisfying. That game alone rearns a 9.5/10 and is rone of my rrfavorite games ever. | | 1 |  | Lightning Bolt

03.09.14 | Damn album artwork not showing up | Necrotica
03.10.14 | Anyway, great series | Mongi123
03.10.14 | I'm finishing up my first playthrough of Shadow of the colossus right now. Honestly, money well spent. One of the best games I've ever played. | Underflow
03.22.14 | The 3rd game is indeed the best. Loved everything about it. The worst game in the series for me was the fourth game. A tournament is the main plotline? Really? It felt like Megaman: DBZ Edition.

03.22.14 | shit yes those games rule, 2 and 3 are the best | Necrotica
03.23.14 | I honesty thought 5 was the worst because of those awful liberation missions :( But yeah, 4's concept was pretty shitty. I enjoyed the dark chips though | Underflow
03.23.14 | I actually quite enjoyed five myself. I took a huge hiatus from playing games before six ever came out, so I have no idea if its any good haha. | Necrotica
03.27.14 | 6 is good. It sorta goes back to the roots of the series despite using the same graphics sprites. A lot of the tournament bullshit was taken out for a more regular and streamlined rpg experience which was nice. Plus, it's always good to see the rest of the series' events wrapped up | Necrotica
03.27.14 | @mongi: Nice! Isn't it amazing? I love the music and art direction so fucking much |
