If only the scoring system wasn't inherently broken  Mega Man with actual scoring could be kinda cool.

I guess I'm going to get stoned to death for thinking the first one is the best. It was the only one that kept a score which added to the replay value for me.

Nah, MM1 is awesome. People are just put off by it because it was not common to have back in the day due to MM2 being the breakout success, and it's noticeably harder than the others (although 3 gives it a run for its money). I personally, outside of beating the Yellow Devil without cheating, don't even find it that hard. It seems like one of those things people automatically dismiss as too hard because other people told them it was hard. Kinda like a lot of children with Math. Totally valid favorite choice though.

I don't really like the random boss point values, but it's still fun to see what kind of final score I end up with.

MM1 is not nearly as hard as people make it out to be.  I beat it on a Playchoice 10 in an arcade a few months ago!  And you can keep looping Wily after beating him to beef up your score.
