    Better than Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 for many reasons:

    - didn't launch with input lag issues - no CTDs - all games run smooth, unlike the untouched NES ports found in MMLC1 - if they had removed the slowdown, those games would've been phenomenal - includes Mega Man 9, the best Mega Man game ever made (it's Capcom's "Stairway to Heaven") Mega Man 7 and 8 are very good games,

    Mega Man 7 and 8 are very good games, they catch some flak because 1 they aren't 8-bit, and in the case of Mega Man 8, they present as pretty childish compared to the rest of them. I wouldn't call 8 "childish" as in "made for kids" though, it's childish in the sense that it looks like a 90s cartoon, or like a Disney game from the 90s. It's still definitely made for people with proper motor function and reflexes. I enjoyed it. The VA was pretty bad, but at the time it was a trend to get VA into anything wherever possible. At least it doesn't detract from the game.

    Would be a 10/10 if the mouse pointer wasn't visible. Also it would be nice to have game manual scans worked into the menus and a boss order and collectible guide (for Mega Man 7) as well, just because. MMLC1 physical had a boss order guide in the packaging, 2 doesn't, but it would have been nice to have it worked into the game somehow to save some Google time.

    Even though it isn't as robust as past collections of the series, Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 is still worth getting if you're a Mega Man fan. The eighth game may be a letdown, but it demonstrates some fun moments while the other three titles are solid. It isn't bursting with extras, and the inclusion of side games would've made this perfect, but for some people, it might be enough to be able to play MM9 and MM10 properly with save states.

    In the end, Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 contains only a small handful of games, none of which are obscure. Three of those entries are genuinely excellent, but beyond a strong challenge mode and the Extra Armor option, the features in this package are lacking. Maybe one day there will be a truly complete collection, with all the bells and whistles and even Mega Man Soccer. That day is not today.

    This collection might not be as huge as the first, you still get a great selection of classic platform games. Even if you can't appreciate Mega Man 7, there are still three awesome games left to play.
