    The peak of original Mega Man

    Mega Man 3, for me was the best game in the original series. They introduced the dash/slide, giving some clever level designed to be added in the game. The good soundtrack was kept, almost as good as the one from the 2nd game and the bosses, as well as levels received some great improvements on their design. The formula was kept, having you choose which level to go, stealing weapons for the bosses and using them to kill another bosses as a weakness. Making you face all of them in the end again.

    We also had our first look at Rush, one of the coolest companions in gaming.

      You know, I really hate to review this game. It's not that it's a bad game, it's just, so... long. Have you ever gotten so trashed and hammered drunk that by the time you wake up, you aptly vow to never drink again? Well, apply that theory here: after the destruction of the eight Robot Masters, the game just seems to turn into a huge pile of monotonous repetitiousness. But oh well, let's venture forth with our mighty Plasma Cannon and once again attempt to rid the world of Dr. Wily's devious wou...
