    If there's one complaint, it's the visuals. They're not bad, just more or less the same visuals we've seen since part one. [Aug 2004, p.89]

    The combat is just as good as ever, even if the plot has been mucked up a bit. It’s not like these games ever had the best plots to begin with anyway.

    Even with the new systems, the core mechanics are losing their edge and the tournament structured story isn't helping things, either.
  4. GameSpot

    The story is lifeless, and the circa-2001 graphics and audio just don't cut it anymore.

    Thanks to the fun battle system, BN4 comes up as a good game, but if not for the marred music and questionable story, BN4 could have been so much better.
  6. GameShark

    Put simply, the games are beginning to wear thin. If you’d don’t have any of the previous editions of Mega Man Battle Network, this is a good one to buy and enjoy. For returning players, hold off purchasing and demand that Capcom do a little bit more next time.
  7. Cheat Code Central

    At this point, Mega Man doesn't even have the credibility of Yu-Gi-Oh, in my opinion. If you can't resist purchasing one of these games, do everything in your power to resist buying both of them.

    This is the best MMBN version I have ever played, but the boss is too easy to defeat.

    I really thought this was a good game, and the final boss is actually beatable, unlike MMBN 3.

    I prefer this one over the other version but not by much the game doesn't change much but it is good. The series is starting to get stall.

    Sorry but this game is AWFUL!!! I had such high hopes back in the day when I played these on GBA but alas I was disappointed. No storyline,Sorry but this game is AWFUL!!! I had such high hopes back in the day when I played these on GBA but alas I was disappointed. No storyline, you have to complete the game three times, craptastic chibi graphics, and childish crisis scenarios. Capcom truly trolled us with this release. If you want to play Battle Network the way it was meant to be played play 2 or 3....hell even 1 was DECENT. This game is awful.… Expand
