As you are no doubt already well aware, Mega Man Powered Up is a remake and amended version of the legendary and classic Mega Man game. The earlier Mega Man was originally released on the NES, over 20 years ago. The popular Mega Man Maverick Hunter X was actually a redo of the original title with additional playable characters and some shuffled power up locations. Going extra mile is Mega Man: Powered Up, where all the bosses are Unlockable, and most of the core level designs have been revamped with a whole bunch of minigames.
If you have experienced Mega Man already, then you’ll notice that powered up is very similar for all intents and purposes. You’ll notice the same bosses on hand and identical level designs. MegaMan Powered Up (PSP) begins with Dr. Belly’s cutscene where he and his vile robot make an attempt to conquer the world by through a kidnapping rampage. All this is adorably voice acted and in an all new opening level that actually trains you on the gameplay basics. Clearing this level will let you jump directly into the main gameplay.
You’ll immediately feel familiar with level designs, if you have played Mega Man before. While the designs are essentially identical, they include certain new and hidden locations for the Blue Bomber to discover. You are also free to unlock all eight bosses as playable characters. This occurs if you manage to slay the boss without using any of the boss weapons. It is admittedly very cool to play as a boss, even if the jumps and movement are pretty much the same as with Mega Man. As we all know, different characters have different abilities. Guts Man, for example, can gain access to hidden areas by busting through certain ceilings and floor, while Cuts Man can bounce while jumping. These special capabilities can assist you in overcoming certain situations. So overall this is a dazzling successor of the classic franchise.
