If you can stomach or even master the unforgiving battle conditions, it's a good game with an okay story and good combat.
Like most Mega Man games, just don't look for much originality or innovation.
Pretty much the same game as it's predecessors, MegaMan Battle Network 5 - Team Protoman offers little innovation, but exceptional gameplay for those whose interest it sparks.

This game is between a 7 and an 8 but I decided a 7 cause the series is getting very bland now. I still like playing it but it IS getting bland and less entertaining while the series goes on.

This isn't the horrible atrocity that is battle Network 4, but the same crisis scenarios are matched with the different navis depending on the version you buy. Musicwise aside from the internet theme, the soundtrack is laughable at best. Capcom could've truly done better if they went back to the formula and graphics used in Battle Networks 1-3, hell if they did the series would probably still be around and selling!

Awesome game.

The biggest problem with Battle Network 5 is the same thing that has plagued all the other sequels in the series: it's just too darn much like its predecessors.

Play Magazine
The isometric level design is once again pretty dull. [Aug 2005, p.56]

Just as good as, if not a tad better than, their predecessors. They're just not any different. [Aug 2005, p.81]

Even though fans of the series will have seen most of this before, Battle Network 5 is a very strong game in a technical sense.

There's no reason to knock a formula that works, but keeping too close to the formula through five editions is only going to satisfy those who have a truly insatiable thirst for more of the same.
