The harshest critics for any video game are usually the hardcore, passionate fans, such as the folks over at The Mega Man Network (who, i don’t know if you’ve noticed or not, have created an entire website devoted to Mega Man). They recently reviewed Mega Man Zero Collection and we’re very happy to report that they enjoyed it!

Capcom has made a collection for DS so that anyone who has played ZX or Mega Man 9 and 10 can finally get a chance to see how Inti Creates became famous (infamous?) among gamers for creating what is often considered the hardest series of Mega Man.

In that regard, the Collection succeeds exponentially. Each game has been ported just fine, and dare I say improved over their original Game Boy Advance incarnations. The first thing that I noticed was how much better the music sounds thanks to the DS’s improved capabilities. The music is more crisp and clear, a wonderful thing considering how badass the soundtracks are (the main theme for the collection is also Zero 3‘s stage select song, one of my favourite tracks of all Zero!)…

…If you don’t own all the Zero games…then by all means go nab this little gem. It’s worth your money.

Who else had a blast playing through Zero Collection? That would be Jonathan Holmes over at Destructoid . He gave the collection a 9.5/10!

Who else here has had the joy of playing MMZC? Sound off in the comments below!
