At first glance on the box art you might think "this is what a 10 year old should be playing" but beyond the cartoony box art lies a great game full of great times. You start off as Lan the proud owner of his navi Megaman and you are at a feild trip with students from your class. Here you will learn the ropes and bare-bone basics of gameplay such as where your health is, chips, chip combos, and support chips. And then from there you will start off the adventure. But this adventure will not only take skill and some quick thumbs, it will take concentration and thought. Yes, you have to think when playing this game, but thats what it makes it so great. Every time you defeat a powerful boss or complete a puzzling mission it gives you more and more the great feeling of satisfaction. Which is what grabs you and pulls you in to this game, and the battle mechanics could not be better. At the start of a battle you are given a handful of random chips from your folder (like your deck when playing pokemon or digimon) you can select chips in the order you like then you press OK. The battle then starts as you fire at them using your buster (B) or use your chip attacks (A) over a period of time your Custom Gauge will fill up again and you will be able to select more chips for battle. This game has a very great way of puzzling you and making you think. Its hard to discern what to say its genre is but it would be 50/50 puzzle/strategy fin my opinion and what a great pair up it has resulted in in this great Megaman game. So I suggest you buy this game, seeing as how Gameboys are cheap now a days and the games are cheaper to. Pick this game up and you'll be sitting in one spot wasting hours on battles and completing missions, and the wonderful feeling that brings is just great. So there's my review on Megaman Battle Network 3 Blue Version, I'm Marshall Singer and you've just been told to BUY!
