The second entry in the classic megaman series is a massive step-up from its predecessor and it shows it with better level design, more robot masters, more fun weapons and the addition of what would later be rush items. The game isn't without its faults as on normal difficulty the game simply showers you with health refills on top of having the most OP weapon in the whole series. The later stages can also have some bland design with obstacles that range from unfair to boring. The game is still very good and worth the try.

The game is wonderful, with a great story that directly comes affected by game mechanics, to a fun gameplay loop that can keep you on your toes and charming characters. The game, while not exactly groundbreaking, still manages to look pretty good while playing and gave no graphical problems such as FPS drops and the gameplay never felt unfair. On normal and easy difficulty the game is far too generous with resources such as flashbangs and especially flares but you have a much harder difficulty that can make lessen that problem to a significant degree. Collectables are fun to look for and the amount of interactivity you can find is always welcomed, from the different radio shows to coffee thermos scattered to manuscript pages that will describe story events past, present and future all without going stale on the placements. This game is 100% a must-buy for people interested in a good story.
