Megaman Zero 2 on the GBA picks up right where the first one left off—Zero’s still got a grudge against Neo Arcadia, and honestly, they deserve it. The controls feel tighter this time, and the new weapons (like that sweet triple rod) make combat way more satisfying when you’re slicing through enemies.

It’s not just about mashing buttons, though. Some of these bosses will wreck you if you don’t learn their patterns, and the levels throw in just enough platforming to keep things tense. The story’s got that classic Megaman drama—questioning what it means to fight for justice, all while blasting robots in a ruined city.

If you liked the first one, this is more of that but polished. If you’re new, expect to die a lot at first, but it’s the good kind of frustration where you know it’s your fault. The pixel art still holds up, especially during those big boss explosions.
