It's the robot revolt, and no one is safe! Mega Man is even less safe than anyone else. This time, our super-powered cybernetic friend is up against a horde of metal crazies who are sick and tired of obeying!
Mega Man 3 is a traditional action-platformer: you jump from brick to brick while avoiding pits and shooting robots.
It's the first time in a Mega Man that you can slide instead of merely walking and that you get a sidekick. Rush is your dog who helps out by offering other modes of transportation when you need it.
Enemies will often supply you with both energy and ammo refills. You can also collect Energy Tanks which can only be used once but will entirely restore your health. And, of course, you do get infinite continues and a password feature to resume play at the beginning of any level.
