I feed my addiction.....and feel exhausted.
Oh wait...YAY COLLECTION!
Story: Capcom needs more money so they whore out megaman again
Gameplay \/
MMX1 > Best game in the series (duh). Fair challenge, fair req. for unlockables, but a terribly cheap endboss.
MMX2 > Hardly better. The bosses are outright uncreative, the level design is practically litered with unruley enemy placement, mini bosses all over the place, and conditions for a good ending requiring you to go off your prefered course of stage selection to kill bosses make this game more annoying than it is challenging.
MMX3 > Better than cruddy old X2. You can play two characters ( like it matters, the other is too easy to kill) and fair unlockables, but bosses that will cause you to rip out your hair. Yet Sigma is easier this time around. If you fulfill all requirments to get all items, then you are immortal! Thats why this game wins
MMX4 > this however.....Like the last game cept even LESS replay value. Level design is good (cept that god awful bike level) and bosses are a little tame (still would kick your ass) but the final fight is tedious as hell. And some slight control issues but the game provides entertainment. But tis a shame that it's all about Zero and not about X.
MMX5 > Tis a shame that X doesn't exist in this game. It's ALL ABOUT ZERO! Anywho, the new features (ducking THANK GOD!) and rapid firing auto charge and new power ups to earn is nice, but the level design is taking a huge decline. more bike levels, stupid whale ship, cars, bombs, appearing out of thin air enemies AND spikes!? Also raging fire....makes most of these stages unreplayable because of the gimmicks. And the "need all parts of armor first" req. is unbarably retarded. I'd be happier if all abilities were applied to ONE armor!
MMX6 > jesus christ what happened!? X finally gets away from spotlight robbing ass Zero and the game...........ok it's not crap but the level design is GOD AWFUL! The power ups from the previous game are now easier to get..........ok thats a lie, you have to rescue people before getting them and make sure these robot bugs don't nerf them first. THE DONUTS FROM HELL! THE IDIOTIC STAGE AFFECTS! LUMINA! WARPING TOTEM POLES! GARBAGE SMASHERS! STUPID ICE! All the levels are guilty of Capcom's Misguided quest to piss you off with cheap gimmicks that actually require the most leet skills imaginable! If capcom wants more money, they need to start gardering to more than the ever shrinking hardcore gamers while chasing away potential new fans. plus you can get stuck in the game cause cap didn't play test it so that everything works out properly.
MM&C: "cheap mario kart rip off" is wrong. Though it feels exactly the same as MK64, it's got it's own uniqueness to stand out.
Overall: Play 1, 3-4 and chase, stay away from 2,5-6
