Well I recently beat Megaman Battle Network again, and it was just as satisfying a second time through. Let's cut the idle chatter though, and get in to why I think this game deserves the scores I gave it.
Graphics- 8
These are pretty good graphics on the Gameboy Advance, all I have to say is that while they are good, the future games in the series are even better, which is why this doesn't get a 10. The characters were well colored and well shaded, enemies looked interesting.
Sound- 9
I played this game non stop for 9 hours to beat the game, and I listened to the sound track of the game the entire time. There wasn't ONE moment where I said TURN IT OFF. The music was catch and fit the game well.
Addictiveness- 8
This one is debateable. I love the MMBN series, so I'm more inclined to play it again and again and again. For most people, beating it once will be enough to get the most out of the first installment.
Story- 10
Bear with me on this one, as I am taking into account the stories of the sequels. The game on its own has a great story, but it makes its money in the long run as one of the best series on the game boy advance.
Depth- 7
It's fairly deep, with more to find once you beat the game, I won't elaborate further, but there is a good deal you can do besides the great story.
Difficulty- 3
This game is seriously easy, whether its because I'm really that good, or because the game is easy as all hell. I played the game on the GBA and it was smoother, (Im not comfortable with a keyboard, which is how I played this time) although I still beat it in about 9 hours. Some people will waste 14-20 hours on the average level without using guides, the advanced players will clear this in less than 10 hours.
Overall - 9.8
I rate this high, because this game is truly one of my favorite games of all time, it sparked a few years of interest in the series, and has kept me coming back for more every now and then, when I need something to take my mind off things.
