Megaman 2 is great, but overrated. It got me into the series when I was 5, but I'm so sick of hearing the title music and Dr. Wily castle 1 over and over to the point I hate some of the soundtrack. It's probably why I gravitated towards ZX and Star Force, which people don't care for.

I think it's funny how X6 is stigmatized because of it's behind-the-scenes controversy. I'm glad the game was made because X5 was a terrible wrap-up for the series. For a game that's set around a space colony crashing into the Earth that leads to a tragic ending, the game's atmosphere doesn't reflect this. It's just a happy-go-lucky stroll through the 8 levels, the fortress levels, Sigma, the OMG the ending is so dark. The music could've been darker, there could've been drama between Zero and X during the game. Dynamo was an awful villain. He does nothing to advance the story and its only around to waste an "hour" of the game. He could've launched a full scale attack on the Hunter Base to sabotage the shuttle launch. The lowest point of the game is that Alia stops you ever 10 steps to tell you the obvious. You could be trying to jump over a pit, then as you jump, Alia stops the game to tell you that falling into a pit kills you. It's really hard to immerse yourself into a game when the game stops you at every turn to say hi.

If anything, X6 took the good parts of X5 and made them better while fixing the stupidity. Alia doesn't take you out of the game to tell you video game logic like falling into a pit kills you, or lava is bad. There are still 4 armors to have fun with.

Capcom should be working on perfecting Megaman ZX's open-world style more. I really like the violence in the ZX where charge shots tear enemies and make the screen flicker red.

This is why Mega Man X4 is the best.
Yeah, X5 was horrbile. And X6, and X7. X8 was the only good one after X4.

I mean it has the best boss names without being retarded. Here, let's compare them to X5.


MAGMA DRAGOON
FROST WALRUS
WEB SPIDER
JET STINGRAY
SPLIT MUSHROOM
SLASH BEAST
STORM OWL
CYBER PEACOCK

X5?

CRESENT GRIZZLY
VOLT KRAKEN
SHINING HOTARUNICUS
TIDAL MAKKODEEN
SPIRAL PEGACION
SPIKE ROSERED
DARK NECROBAT
BURN DINOREX

ok, some of the X5 names are fine. but what the hell is a hotarunicus?

WHAT AM I FIGHTING FOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRR?

Also, Maverick Hunter X is fun. I didn't wanna touch it but I got it with MMPU as a dual pack and... it's actually a good remake. Capcom can make good remakes. There's still hope.

Hell, maybe Inafune will buy back Megaman (cuz it's his anyways) and fix all the mistakes Capcom has been making.

He's too busy being a summon in Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2 for that:

Why does Vile Mode have a Hard option? I can hardly beat Normal. I beat Chill Penguin, Storm Eagle, and Flame Mammoth and now I'm stuck due to not having enough WE and not having Infinity Gig. I have his armor peices, but they don't help if I hardly have any health-ups.

Vile mode is a pain at first, but it becomes [i]MUCH[/i] easier once you defeat people, and get the right powers.
....
Also, I can't really beat anyone on Hard Mode as Vile.
Chill Penguin, right off the bat, spams his overdrive move like a mental patient, and with semi-invisible ice chunks going everywhere that take out 1/3 of your HP, it's rather impossible to dodge an attack like that.
