Awesome, one of the better Battle Network games
User Rating: 7 | Mega Man Battle Network 5: Double Team DS DS
I picked this game up on Thursday afternoon and have hardly put it down for other games other than Animal Crossing Wild World. This game is by far one of the better Battle Network games in the series. Myself being introduced to this series with Battle Network 3 Blue/White which is the best one in the GBA series, and Battle Network 5 on the DS having both GBA versions on one cart is a extra treat, plus some unique features as well. Being able to control Megaman as well as images of characters like Protoman and switching between them in battle gives for a new kind of Megaman experience. The story line is rather strangs and so far the only thing I have disliked about the game is the Liberation missions which can get really frustratingg at times and take a while to beat. There are tons of new chips and navis to battle and being able to control and customize image versions of navis that are in the game, and having two of your choice in your party is very cool. The graphics are good, the controls are easy to learn, mind you every chip requires you to have a different technique to use it so setting up your chip folder can be quite tedious. I love this game a lot, more than any of the other Battle Network games, BN3 was the best out of the first 4 games on that handheld, just having the DS version is better if you want to play the game through with different characters. For a younger gamer though they would find this game fairly challenging, even I do and I am fluent with the series and how complex they can be by the end. I wouldnt say its hard, it is for me but some players would find it easy while others dont.
