Best Mega Man Games, Ranked From Worst to Best
9) Mega Man 10
Following the success of Mega Man 9, it was little surprise its follow-up failed to escape the shadow it created. Which is a shame, because Mega Man 10 isn’t a bad game by any means.
Like 9, it utilizes the NES style which made the series a household name, and even offers players the chance to take on Wily and his forces as Protoman in a more difficult version of the game.
It was a nice twist on the game, and along with Bass and his mode which were available via DLC, it was a nice change of pace and a welcome addition to the tried and true formula.
Unfortunately, the other aspects of the game don’t distinguish themselves from other Mega Man games enough to make 10 worthwhile.
Its bosses, level design and platforming all feel achingly similar, to the point where older fans of the game will have a since of constant deja vu the whole way through.
There’s still enough there to enjoy for one or two playthroughs, but it’s hard not to say it’s because of the nostalgia it brings for past titles.
