X6 is my favorite. [b]ZX is the series visual masterpiece.[/b]

Ehh...bolded is debatable. From what I saw, it's little better than Zero's art, and SF had (for the most part) better 3D then any other Mega Man title. Barring 3Dash, of course.

I'm playing X4, and playing without any Heart Tanks, or any of the [i]BETTER[/i] armor upgrades.
Yes, I have the boots equipped, so sue me. I might also get the helmet, considering I'm deliberately doing buster-only runs of the bosses.
So at most it would just let me spam special weapons for the stages, but then go back to using just the buster for the boss.

The nightmare system made me want to kill myself.[/quote]
Only like 1 of the 5 Nightmare effects are annoying.

[quote name='Shard' timestamp='1319816653' post='5604628']How many bosses do you need in 1 stage(Blaze Heatnix!?) I mean the story was good but the level designs are just awful =/[/quote]
Only Shark Players stage is annoying. The rest, I can deal with easily.

I somewhat had the feeling that every X game after X3 was lacking in one way or another. Bosses felt bland , stages felt repetitive with no secrets , music was just i donno.......it just felt wrong to my ear. I just diddn't feel that "x" vibe from it you know what i mean?

X4's bosses are so friggin' easy.
Peacock -> Easy as hell to predict her 'appear-on-you' gimmick -> Wall grab to dodge the feather-missles.

Beast -> Use the wall to dodge his dashing attacks, and dash under his crazy spin-kick thing.

Dragoon -> Stay near the middle. Dash under and jump over the Hadokens -> Use the wall to dodge the flame breath.

Spider -> Wall Jumps can net you additional windows of opportunity.

Mushroom -> The rainbow-'clones' might give you some trouble, but when he finally splits into two -> Time your jumps to avoid everything.

Stingray -> You WANT to stay under him. If he does the dash across the screen, and you were directly under him, he should miss you. [i]AS SOON[/i] as he opens his leg to launch stuff, you better have your Buster ready.

Walrus -> Wall jump over his sliding -> Charged buster shots easily remove any ice in your way.

Owl -> Owl can be a little tricky, but his attacks are easy to dodge. [i]EXCEPT[/i] that crazy tri-attack thing that goes across the whole screen, as that requires you to time your jumps n' stuff.

^These above tactics are easier with the boots, and become effortlessly easy with the buster.

Doesn't erase the fact X4 has the best level design

Despite the fact X5 is riddled with Guns N' Roses references, I actually like the X5 names.

Mattrex?
Duff McWhalen?
The 'Skiver'?

Seriously? Squid Adler, Axle the Rose, Cresent Grizzly, Izzy Glow and Dark Dizzy are Ok names, but those 3 just bug me.

I was playing X4 earlier, and wow.... The Dragoon AI is actually rather intelligent.
I mean on top of the Hadoken being rather unpredictable, he knows when to Shoryuken while your in the air, has rather hilarious timing with his jump-kick, and just all-around makes for an awesome Opponent.
.....He managed to kill my 4 lives + Game Over me.

Then when I went back, I realized he only moves to the edges + center, and the spaces between them are almost never attacked.
And then the whole "challenge" aspect became a walk in the park(I beat him without taking any real hits)
Regardless, he still makes for an amazing boss.

not even her own story-[/quote]
Shes the brains of the team. Why does she need a story when she is literally part of the main one.

Oh, and Layer + Pallet are just made-up navigators, only to exist for the "They have the same moveset as [X]" gimmick.
....And Layer having a crush on Zero makes me LOL.
