Guess who's back?

Well today I'm going to look back at 2 very good arcade games.

Lets start off with megaman: the power battle. The story is simple. You choose if you wanna fight bosses from either megaman 1-3, megaman 4-6, or mega man 7. You choose your charecter (Megaman, Protoman (Most epic intro ever), or bass) You beat the bosses, then you go to the wimpy guy himself, Doctor wily. You beat him and you get an ending with the charecter (Or charecters) you played as.

Moving on, capcom saw the success of this game and decide to make a sequel titled "Megaman 2: the power fighters!". This game is like the old arcade beat 'em up only that you can choose from 3 different modes. These modes are "Find wily", "Save roll", Or "Find new parts". You also get a new character from MM8, Duo. The games story is straight forward, You either get backstory that roll has been captured, you have to find new parts so you can beat wily, or wily is up to his old tricks. Each mode has different bosses ranging from Mega man 1 to mega man 8. The endings in this game are about the same like if you finish with 2 charecters you get a double ending. Did I mention if you charge up your buster all the way and hold up while you let go of the charge you do street fighter moves?

Megaman: the power battle:

Gameplay: 3/5 (Could use some work)

Storyline 2/5 (Really needs work)

Controls: 4/5 (Very good, but the super jumping is annoying to execute)

Graphics: 5/5 (All MM7 graphics. Really good.)

Overall: 14/20 (I would recommend to Any type of mega man fan.)

Megaman 2: The power fighters:

Gameplay 4/5 (A great improvement from the last game)

Storyline 3/5 (Better, but not great)

Controlls: 4/5 (Same as before)

Graphics 5/5 (Same as before)

Overall  16/20 (Great game)

If you are wondering where I got it, you can get it by getting Mega man: Anniversary collection or downloading an emulator and a rom. But if you get it in Anniversary, you need to unlock it or enter a code.
