Well now, here's a game I'm willing to bet a lot of people forgot about (most likely due to a few particular reasons that will become apparent towards the end of this video). As you can probably tell, this is the game I was referring to in the previous video's description. Battle Network Transmission is an...interesting game, to say the least. If you've never seen or heard of this game before, it's essentially one of two attempts to make a Battle Network game but with similar gameplay to the classic series (the other being Rockman EXE WS - a game for the WonderSwan Color that was only released in Japan).

From what I've seen, a lot of people really don't care for this game. Why is that, exactly? Aside from a few minor things, I think the biggest issue with this game is its difficulty curve. This game is downright frustrating if you don't know what you're getting into, and nowhere is that more prevalent than with a good portion of the bosses. Hell, I'm willing to bet that a majority of people who quit this game probably did so entirely due to the first boss.

With all that being said, is this game as horrible as some people make it out to be? Well...I wouldn't necessarily say it's awful. It's very, very flawed, yes - but once you get the hang of it, this game does have some genuinely enjoyable moments, especially once you learn how certain things work and once you get past the first two bosses.
