Overall: 9.7

This is my personal favorite game in the Mega-man Zero series. I believe the story is the best out of all four. You're going to love this game. This is the game where things get the most intense, in my opinion. Not only that, this game is extremely addictive, and you'll absolutely love using your recoil rod, and your Z-saber to get through this game. You'll fall in love with the better game-play, better story, more depth, and the great music.

Graphics: 9

This game's graphics were much better than the previous games' graphics. Inticreates really worked hard on this game. The game-play is smooth, the animation is right, and the environment is very neat and eccentric in each stage. Some of the time, you'll wonder what it is you're looking at in the background of each stage. Personally, I give this game's graphics a 9 for much better quality.

Sound: 10

In my opinion, this game's sound is perfect. The music in each stage is addictive to listen to, and will definitely get stuck in your head. The sounds the characters make are just as good as the other two games in the series, possibly better. The music and the sounds will make this game that much better. You'll love the sound quality of this game. Overall, I give this game's sound a huge thumbs up for great quality.

Addictiveness: 9

This game is even more addictive than the first two. Instead of having to spend time finding cyber elves, like in the first two, you find these new things called secret disks, which contain various things from information, to cyber elves. You'll play through this game over and over and not get sick of it. The storyline adds to the addictiveness, because it's very intense. I give addictiveness a 9 for a great game!

Story: 10

I think this story is also perfect. It has many plot twists, and is very addictive, and memorable. The characters are more developed in this game than any of the games in the series. They, like said in my previous thread, have even more distinct personalities in this game. For example, one of the reploids in the resistance base is lazy, while another works really hard. There are times in this game where you really want to know what will happen, thus making it so you play this game from start to finish because of its story. This game's storyline is perfect. It gets a 10.

Depth: 9

This game will definitely take you as long, if not, longer than the first two games. With finding secret disks, to completing the story over and over. You'll love every moment of it, though. It's very fun to play. The storyline, if you've played the first two games (Like you're supposed to before this), you'll know what to do, and you'll get through the game within 3-6 hours. Don't play this game before you play the other two first. You'll be really confused.
Anyways, depth gets a 9 for addictive gameplay, and a good storyline.

Difficulty: 4

This game is not very difficult at all. You'll easily slash your way through the game. There are some parts where it may seem difficult, but this game is very easy, in my opinion. If you're looking for a difficult game, this may not be your pick. But I believe that the other great features of this game will make up for the lost difficulty. Plus, if you beat this game on normal mode, you can try it on hard mode, which is, in my opinion, increasingly difficult. Overall, this game's difficulty is easy. It gets a 4.

Wrap things up:

Mega-man Zero 3 is a very great game. Like I said, you'll love playing through it. It's so addictive, and fun. Play the first two games before playing this game and the fourth. You won't understand anything that's going on. Overall, this is one of my favorite games. I highly recommend you try it.

I have yet to play the Megaman Zero series. Do you need to play them in sequential order to understand the story better, or is it like the original Megaman series, where it isn't needed?

rcarter2 : Unlike most Megaman games, you should play this series in sequential order. You'll be very confused if you don't.

Thanks. I will eventually get started on that then. I will look forward to getting to this particular one.

rcarter2 : You're very welcome. If you need any assistance on them, I can help. Have fun playing them! Good luck!
