Let me start this small review off by saying; I f*cking LOVE Megaman 2. A while back my cousin pointed me to The Mega's website telling me about the band and how they went through all of the in game music, rewrote it to contain metal, and gave all of the Robot Masters back story's and personality's. I Was AMAZED at how brilliant their album Get Equipped was. Since then I was waiting for their Megaman 3 album (which is still in the works, they've released a single recently, it is awesome) and the other day I went to their website to see if there were any updates on the album and I noticed they had released an acoustic version of their Get Equipped album called Get Acoustic. I must say, it turns all of their music around in general, but not backwards, if you catch my drift. They made an amazing album, while before with Get Equipped I had loved most of their songs, with the exception of The Message From Doctor Light, and Lamentations Of A War Machine, the acoustic versions of these songs are brilliant. With Get Equipped I couldn't STOP playing The Annihilation Of Monsteropolis, now I can't stop playing The Message From Doctor Light in general, and all of the other songs as well, when I play one, I cannot stop playing the others and I keep replaying the list. TMFDL is genius on acoustic and I'm glad of their improvements on that and Lamentations, though I am sad so say that The Annihilation Of Monsteropolis has suffered quite a bit when it was 'unplugged', I'm not saying it's horrible, I'm just saying that I was a little upset that it lost its re-playability, and that... Well that sucks. Anyway, as a Megaman 2 fan, I greatly suggest you get Get Equipped, and if you enjoy that, I highly suggest you buy Get Acoustic, it's a nice change of pace and just fun to sing along with, especially while playing the game itself. That's right, I suggest you play The Mega's covers while you play Megaman 2. It'll bring the 8-Bit game into the new age.
You can buy both albums for 10 dollars each digitally and the physical copies here!
