Re-ReviewAfter doing an absolutely terrible review and having it being pointed out, I decided to re-review the game and give the game a decent review. So, let's begin shall we?
Story- A soccer match is about to begin in a stadium.... somewhere. When suddenly, the robot masters from previous Mega Man games arrive to tear up the place. Seeing the carnage unfold, Mega Man goes to the stadium to stop them by... beating them at a soccer match... Mega Man games never really have had any focus on story, so I can't fault them for the story, especially on a spin-off title.
Gameplay- It's pretty much what you expect, it's soccer, you kick the ball into your opponents goal, when you are in possession of the ball, you can pass with y and shoot with b, when your opponent has the ball, you can slide tackle with y or head the ball if its in the air, b seems to do the same as y and a shoulder tackles. You can toggle whenever you want the small map at the top at the screen that shows where the ball and all the players are, as well as highlighting who you are playing as, with select. It's pretty ordinary soccer except for one thing which is a special shot. If you press r and b at the same time, and you have to be REALLY on time for this, you will shoot the ball but it will change it into something lethal which stuns anyone who gets hit by it, including your own players. These shots differ on who you are playing as at that time, such as Cut Man who makes the ball into scissors. Before the match, you can select who you want in your team, and their positions, the robots all have different stats such as speed and tackle, but if you are playing Capcom championship, you can only play as Mega Man and Mega Man clones. Whenever you can select more robots later in championship mode is something I do not know of, since I didn't make it past the first stage I selected. The gameplay, to be honest, just seems boring to me. I can see some people enjoying this, but I just can't get into this. The reason being that, since this is a Mega Man game, I was expecting just a little more to make the game more interesting, rather than just having a almost completely normal soccer game, but with special shots. I just feel that they could have had a lot more to make the game more interesting. Much like how Mario did with his soccer games, with their power ups, their own special shots, the ball changing color to make shots more likely to get in, etc. This is just soccer with Mega Man.
Graphics- Since I don't go much into graphics usually, I won't go into to much here. I will say that the graphics are just fine, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with how the game looks from what I have seen, it looks fair enough for what the SNES standards are. A game should not be judged heavily on the graphics, and that is what I will do here.
Sound- In my opinion, the Mega Man series has some of the greatest soundtracks ever. I did not go out of my way to listen to every track in the game, but from what I have listened to, the music is not bad, but I wouldn't say it is as good as what the series has had beforehand. Some tracks started to get annoying after a while like Blues Man (Proto Man) as its just a 1 min tune playing over and over. Some may have a different opinion, but in mine, I see it as OK music.
Addictiveness- Well as you may have gathered, I didn't exactly enjoy this game very much, I won't be coming back to play it any time soon. But I wouldn't say it is not going to draw anyone back ever, this depends on whenever you just like this game more than me.
Depth- Well there is a fair amount of content in this game, there is exhibition, which is just a traditional, quick match against the computer or another player. Capcom Championship, which is the story mode of the game, where you choose who to go up against. Tournament which is choosing a preset team and then competing in a tournament of 8 teams for a trophy, and lastly league which is... well a league, you select a preset team and then face certain teams in order, get the most points at the end and you win. So there is a good amount of content here, but is somewhat cliché since most sports games have these modes.
Difficulty- This will probably differ from person to person, depending on how good they are at soccer games, the strategies and all that stuff. Me? I'm terrible at soccer, so it's pretty hard for me, that may also be why I'm not enjoying the game much, but I'd say its more because of the somewhat dull gameplay.
Overall, I wouldn't really recommend this game, other than to people who are really into soccer games, but of course there are just better games than this if you are into them. If you expecting what I think most people were expecting, which is a crazy Mega Man soccer game with power ups, weapons and other interesting twists, you'll probably be as disappointed as me. So I'm afraid, after giving the game a somewhat decent review, my opinion still hasn't changed on this game. I only hope this review is okay to everyone.
