Specifically, time. Did you go the extra mile to complete the "After the End" Segment? Did you earn every special Weapon/Armor/Gun/Badge for killing one of every enemy with every single weapon?

(I'm gonna say 'chips' a lot here. Chips are like single-use weapons or items for battles. Think of them as "cards" for you TCG players.)
I've currently got roughly 41 hours in Megaman Battle Network 3. The game takes maybe 20-25 hours to beat the story mode. After that, there are an assortment of Secret Areas, Specialty item requirements, Virus Breeding (Yup), Chip Gathering (200 Standard Chips scattered across 31 Internet Areas/Networks, another TON of Mega chips, 5 Giga Chips (The rarest kind, you can only have one of them in your folder of 30 at a time, with the Second to last Unlockable being a Program that allows you to carry 2) and 31 Program Advances (Chip combos). I have 162, 39, 1 and 19 respectively.

More things I have to do:
Gather 300 Bugfrags, the 'rare' currency. 200 of them will get you the only non-boss related Giga Chip, the only one I have. You need to proceed to the 3rd (and last) secret area. You can get Bugfrags in 10 piece increments at a time from a specific boss fight, but you have to kill him with perfect timing or it doesn't work. You can fight him as often as you can but 1 in 5 times you won't counterkill him and thus miss the chance at the Bugfrags.

Get the last 38 Standard Chips. Fuuuuuck that.

Finish every Job request to get the (Optional) HP+500 Program. I won't use it but I'll end up getting it anyway.

Get the rest of the Megachips, there are 5 Megachips per each Boss (with 2 exclusions). You must beat everything to unlock them. This excludes the non-summoning Megachips. Not sure how many more of those I need.

Get the other 4 Giga Chips.

Get a copy of the "Blue" version which is considered better, Trade all of my good chips over, and start from the beginning. This will require the purchase of an old fashioned GBA Link cable and a very awkward 20 Minutes at my friend Jordan's house as I use his old GBA's to transfer the data.

As I may have said, I go apeshit for megaman.





This is the longest Bonus area of any of the Megaman games, and it might lead you to maybe 50 hours clocked. There are people with roughly 100 hours put into it, though.
