Mega Man 9 - PS3 Network

Also known as: Mega Man 9
A classic, old-school Mega Man through and through, from the obscenely hard but ultimately rewarding difficulty to the infectious 8-bit tunes. For old-school gamers sick of rechargeable health meters and forgiving checkpoints, this is the kind of game you remember and love. As for the newbies out there, stick through the constant game over screens and you'll find a game that's about rock-solid gameplay more than next-gen technical wizardry.

If you weren’t around for Mega Man’s heyday (waaaay back when dinosaurs roamed the Earth, around 1990), all this commotion about an archaic, unsophisticated platformer may make about as much sense as the robot elephants that populate Concrete Man’s level. The confusion is understandable - Mega Man 9 is an old-school 8-bit NES game through and through, with pixel-perfect jumps, one hit kills and crushingly difficult boss encounters that'll shred wrists from here to Japan. ...
