These games are really FUN!!!, March 19, 2005
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
I was a kid when the Mega Man games first came out for Nintendo. The only ones I ever played were 2, 3, and 4, and we only owned 2. Still, I couldn't wait for this game to come out. Us poor Xbox owners had to wait 9 months past the release date for PS2 and GC, but it was well worth it. That said, I love this game.
A big part of my love for this game is nostalgia. Playing these old games again really takes me back. However, there is something else. These games are FUN!!! My biggest complaint about modern games is the lack of replay value. That is not the case with this game. I can play Mega Man over and over and not get bored. In recent months, I have found myself dusting off the Nintendo and playing Mega Man 2, years after I had first beaten it. Now, I can play them all forever on Xbox.
Also, kudos to Capcom for leaving the games unaltered. There is an optional Navi Mode that gives you tips during play, slightly changes the weapons menu, and provides remixed music for many of the levels, but I don't use it unless I want to hear the new music. The old school grphics and music are great.
Also, the buttons for the Xbox version are in their correct places. I have played the GC version and the buttons are switched! I shot when I wanted to jump and jumped when I wanted to shoot. No such problem on the Xbox. However, if you want the buttons switched, there are four different controller configurations to choose from. I also hear that the PS2 buttons are in their correct places.
In conclusion, I definitely recommend this game for those familiar with the old school Nintendo versions and for new gamers as well. They have great replay value, and for 20 bucks, how can you go wrong?

NnyCW for Capcom City, June 9, 2005
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
Mega Man Anniversary Collection takes the original 8 Mega Man games, throws in two arcade Mega Man games (one unrealesed in the USA until now) and combine them all to form one hell of a great Mega Man package. Then Capeven added Navi mode to all eight games (something that was added later in the series, and can be turned off if you want to play them as they originally were) added re-mixed music, and added in a save feature to replace the pass codes from the old games. The XBOX version included the extras from both the PS2 and the GCN version (PS2 version included a full episode of the Mega Man cartoon and the GCN version icluded an interview with the creator of Mega Man) Because of the fact that the XBOX version includes the extras from both the others, makes this the best one to get.

Megaman Classics, November 9, 2006
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This is a great revival of all the first megaman games. I thought I had lost all the old NES ones forever, but this collection brings them back and does a great job with it. Definitely worth buying if you're a diehard Megaman fan.
