    Also, I wish people would mentally separate originals from tributes. U can't make the same game original more than one time. After its initial release where it is original it's originality dies with it, all other copies are tributes. Treat it for what it is, if u want snes play snes. Time passes and it is impossible to live in the past

    Grabbed it, at the very least, it's a great Platformer to have on the iPad even if it doesn't live upto Megman standards like some players seem to complain.

    As a huge retro fan, which is a better game to grab right now? Mega Man II or Megan Man X?

    On iOS? X. On anything else, (arguably) MMII. II's controls are abysmal.

    Yes, on iOS. I tried the lite of II and didn't think they were that bad, definitely not perfect though... I'm just not a huge fan of backtracking in games and the 'updated graphics' in X. But if it's definitely the better game then I'll definitely grab it on sale.

    I enjoyed MM II on iOS actually, the controls are tricky but you can get used to them and its fun as hell once you do, having said that I think X is the superior game between these two.

    visual 'upgrade'

    Not going to lie - I don't like the look of the new visuals (growing up on 8 and 16 bit games has really stuck with me), but if the game is basically a new coat of paint on top of the same game, then I may have to get this! Yay ยข0.99!

    I never really noticed this game despite having spent hours playing Megaman games as a kid. Is this worth the nostalgia buy? Even if I generally dislike platformers on iOS?
     
  11. It's ok, has some framerate and control issues, but for 99 cents is probably worth it I suppose.
