The game welcomes you with a happy tune with a short story of what's happening. Oh dear, it looks like that Dr. Wily's up to no good again. He's escaped and he has built eight evil robots, if 6 wasn't enough last time. Ranging from Metal man to Quick man and from Airman to Woodman. There's Lighter Man.....err...I mean Fire Man.....no, no no....Heat Man. Can't confuse them two together. They get really stingy with their names. Much like the first game, the game offers you to choose what robot master you want to fight. Most robot masters have their own weakness. You'll have to fight at least one with your Mega Buster, although it was called the Plasma Cannon at the time. (and like all good games, you lose all your powers from the previous game with no reason what-so-ever. Did Mega Man thing he'll never need them again? And why did he think the same thing for 8 more games?) Although some of the Masters have more that one weakness. I was very amused to find a one hit kill for some robot masters (I'm not going to tell you, you'll just have to try them out ^^).
As you kill each robot master, you get their weapons to use. After you kill a certain amount of robot masters, Dr. Light gives you a special weapon to use that will make the game more convenient, but this takes forever!. They really do take their sweet time with it. There's no way to skip it. It takes even longer when Dr. Light gives you another weapon. Uhg! The game play is amazing, though. You jump higher and more lightly than the first game, allowing jumps to easily be executed. The layout of each level gives an easier play though than the last game, but enough difficulty to keep the player challenged. There is also a harder mode you can play for those who like a challenge, but it basically just makes the bosses have more health. No more enemies than the normal mode =(
The music.....ahhhhhh.....it's legendary to say the least. I don't need to tell you how good the music it. These are the sorts that get locked into your head. The best of the lot is Wily's Castle stage 1 and 2. Almost any fan of this game will agree. The graphics are also a little better than the first game. There are, sadly a couple of flaws that are minor, like the Green Dragon boss, one slip and you have to start again from the last checkpoint, and if you got no energy left for the floating platforms, your going to spend the next half an hour killing the same enemy for some energy power.
Overall, I give it 9.3/10 This game is simply amazing. I'm glad I played it. One of the best. The graphics mixed with the fluid controls and music makes for an experience of a great game. It's a little short, and you have to do all the Wily stages I one go, otherwise you'll have to start from stage one of Wily's Castle, but I wouldn't have it any other way. A true classic.

Mega Man 2 Box Description:
He's Back! And this time the evil Dr. Wily (once the supreme power in the universe) has created even more sinister robots to mount his attack. But as MegaMan, you've also grown in power and ability. Can you save mankind from the evil desires of Dr. Wily? Each of the eight empires is ruled by a different super-robot. You must defeat each enemy on his own turf, building up weapons as you go. Only after all are destroyed will you go head-on with the mastermind himself, the evil Dr. Wily.
Mega Man 2 Description: After defeating Dr. Light's six robots that were reprogrammed by the villainous Dr. Wily in Mega Man, it seemed like the world was safe. But it was not to be. Dr. Wily has escaped from prison and is madder than ever, this time creating eight new Robot Masters of his own to take over the world and crush Mega Man! Is the world doomed?
Mega Man 2 is the sequel to the NES game Mega Man. In this game, Metal Man, Air Man, Bubble Man, Quick Man, Crash Man, Flash Man, Heat Man and Wood Man are Dr. Wily's eight prize creations that have been sent to take over the world. As Mega Man defeats these bosses, he can steal their powers and use them for himself. Each Robot Master is weak against another's weapon, and through experimentation, Mega Man can gain the upper hand by using the weapon they're vulnerable against.
Other additions to the game include the 'E-Tank' - an item that can be used at any time to completely refill Mega Man's energy, and a Password System, which allows players to continue their game by recording which Robot Masters have been defeated and how many E-Tanks they have. Mega Man 2 also removes the scoring system from the original game.
