Mega Man 2 Overall Comparison TF2 is practically infinitely replayable. MM2, once you play through it once or twice, you'll pretty much know exactly what you're in for with any further replaying of the game.

Considering what they do for their genres, MM2 was a great action platformer and did many things right. TF2 is a fantastic multiplayer game with many different ways to play it. But in the end, I have more of an urge to start playing TF2 due to how dynamic everything is as opposed to opening up an emulator and playing MM2.last activity: 12/21/2008 9:12 am

MM2 is not nearly as hard as MM9. Not even close. MM9 has to be one of the hardest NES games I've ever played. There were parts that I had to play over and over again for at least an hour in order to finally beat it, and I would consider myself pretty good at games. If you like the challenge, MM9 will definitely give it to you.
MM9 adds a couple sweet features, like the ability to buy and use items and various achievements that you can earn in game. MM2 let you use power containers, but that was it.
The one place where MM9 really loses is the music. MM2 had the most memorable music and I still love the songs from that game. MM9, while it did have the same feel as the usual Mega Man music, just didn't have those catchy hooks and memorable tunes.
MM2 wins out because it's a game that can be enjoyed by a larger group of people and not just the hardcore Mega Man fans. MM9 kinda requires you to really love Mega Man, otherwise, you would never even bother with trying to beat the game because of how insanely difficult it is.last activity: 2/23/2009 12:02 pm

With its classic gameplay and memorable music, it was a wonderful entrance to the world of Mega Man (still haven't played through the original...the presence of points and lack of 8 bosses is still weird). To this day I still play this game through.
Last summer I decided it was time to give another game a chance. I loaded up Mega Man 3 and was immediately greeted with a lot of the same, but something didn't feel right. Gone were Dr. Wily's bots with cool elemental influences (Heat Man, Air Man, Metal Man); in their place were bots with odd influence (Hard Man; seriously, Top Man?) I decided I had no choice but to play it through until the end.
One of the classic features of the Mega Man series is the opportunity to re-battle fallen bosses during the Dr. Wily stage. By this point you probably have figured out their weakness, so the battles aren't too difficult. Imagine my surprise as I was playing through these levels and found those same teleporters at the end of these new stages.
*SPOILER ALERT*
Those teleporters brought me into battle against all the bots from Mega Man 2. This was not just unexpected but it brought back great memories previous years. Lost in this nostalgia was the need to figure out what their new weaknesses would be (Magnet Man for Metal Man wasn't too tough). As if this wasn't enough, you also get to fight the cyclops that constantly disassembles itself (a definite throwback to the original Mega Man).
These battles made Mega Man 3 a wonderful experience, but since the throwbacks to the past made it so memorable, I am going to give the nod to Mega Man 2.
