Mega Man X Collection
 
So, who else is getting this?

I loved the X series... IMHO it's better then the original. The fact that I'll be getting not just 1-3, but all the way up to 7, is huge. Not owning a Playstation, I never had the chance to play any above 4 seriously.

愛 01-07-2006 01:01 AM

I played every one up to X4. I didn't like anything past that. I'll consider picking this up, provided my funds are okay with that.

XERO 01-07-2006 01:37 AM

I pwn at Mega Man X.:P

I so want this, too.

ThirdMarioBro 01-07-2006 03:52 AM

Ahhh, the Mega Man X series, is for one, better than the original, and two, caused me to kill two SNES controllers. Now it's going to rape my wavebird unless my ability to control my anger has improves. We'll see. These games are new to me as well as I never played the PSX games.

CookSux 01-07-2006 11:42 AM

I heard that it would only have up to X5.

Peanut 01-07-2006 04:56 PM

I might get it. I've always loved Megan Man and X is my favourite of the series. I just thought they kind of over did it. There were way too many games.

Deathknight 01-07-2006 09:23 PM

I'm buying it strictly for Battle and Chase which will be unlockable and the Playstation/Saturn version of X3 which has also been confirmed. Didn't really like the Playstation X games and I really don't like the SNES version of X1.

OA 01-07-2006 11:44 PM

Man, I havent played a Mega Man game in sooooo long...i can remember really likin it though....still playing Metorid Prime right now but we'll see

ThirdMarioBro 01-08-2006 12:21 AM

Watching that Chibi Mega Man on PSP is like watching the ghost of a fallen icon. They ruin everything with their mindless sequels. Damn you Capcom.

Voltron 01-08-2006 12:51 AM

I'm a Megaholic. I'll definately be getting this. And I'll definitely be drinking my brains and crying myself to sleep after I fight Sigma.

Demented Utrom 01-08-2006 01:37 AM

I'm getting it.Since, I have Mega Man X1-8 already.But Having 6 X games, on one disc is easier.I'm getting it, on Gamecube and PS2.

One thing, the Voice acting on Mega Man X4 is pretty bad.
Mega Man X5, had no voice acting on the North American release.
Mega Man X6, had Japanese voice acting and english subtiles.
Well there is, a rumour of redubbing the Voices with Mega Man X8, voices for Playstation and Super Nintendo.
As a bonus, option.

Mega Man X8, voice overs the only decent ones were Viles's,Sigma's, and Burn Rooster's, the rest were sort of odd.

ThirdMarioBro 01-08-2006 01:39 AM

I'll be skipping the voices as there is no such thing as a good Mega Man dub, whichever language. Bad bad bad voice acting. The old games can stay mute thank you very much Capcom.

Turtledude2k3 01-08-2006 01:44 AM

I currently won't be buying this until after I buy my new computer in af ew months.. After doing that, I'll buy it.. However i'll give it a rent first.

Dr. Doom 01-08-2006 09:48 AM

I'm all over this one. I've been a huge fan of the X Series since a little after it came out in 93. I borrowed the first one from a friend and I don't think I ever gave it back. At some point I was in possesion of all the X games except for 2, but I have no cle where ANY of my SNES games are anymore. So I guess it'll just be so I can have everything in one place. The series peaked at X4 in my opinion (probably because I'm a huge Zero mark), but X5 and X6 are still worth having, if for nothing else than the challenge of the ridiculous levels (with frustratingly easy bosses at the end). ANd of course I haven't played the first 3 in years, so that will be a treat.

ThirdMarioBro 01-08-2006 02:09 PM

The X series did pwn the crap out of the original. It was sooooo good.

XERO 01-08-2006 03:15 PM

However, the originals are just addictive.

Even still, Mega Man X is my favorite Mega Man title ever.8)

Turtledude2k3 01-08-2006 04:44 PM

Megaman francise is good.

how about megaman legends?

do you guys liek that game?

I enjoy it.

Kid Icarus 01-08-2006 04:51 PM

that's what Mega Man 64 was made from, right?

Capcom always has to do something to try to totally ruin a franchise... and i guess that was it.

XERO 01-08-2006 05:00 PM

The fact that Mega Man was human in those games... :sick:

Plus, it pretty much ruined the chance for him to be in the Super Smash Brothers series. :mad:

megaman was not a robot in megaman 64/legends.

in fact he's a robot in every game.

in megaman, he's a robot, in megamn nt/.exe he's a robot in a computer world.

in fighting games, he's robot. in racing, he's robot.

just like south park, he's robot!

Peanut 01-08-2006 06:42 PM

Mega Man 64/Legends sucked big time. But Mega Man Legends 2 was sooooo totally bad ass it. It was fun as hell. I actually want to play that now.

Yeah, but I meant that he was human in the Mega Man 64/Legends games.

IMO, that kind of took away his aura.

Turtledude2k3 01-08-2006 09:03 PM

nah he was still megaman.. in fact hasa blue armor and an arm cannon.

Peanut 01-08-2006 09:49 PM

It was still Mega Man. He was still a robot too. Not fully, but he was still a robot. All the cool upgrades you could get were awesome. The thing that sucked about Mega Man Legends were those crappy dungeon things. Little spaces that looked like crap. Legends 2 was so much better, all the different towns and wide open places. The boss battle with that huge robot in the town was awesome too!

I was just doing some thinking about the X series. There're a couple things I find annoying. One of the biggest is the fact that the music got so bad. The older Mega Man's and even some of the earlier X stuff had great music, but it just got so amazingly ******. That also goes for boss names. Metal Shark Player? WTF! Then there's Zero...what the hell do people like about this guy? Is it the fruity blonde ponytail or the fact that he's just such a generic "bad ass"? I don't get it.

Dr. Doom 01-09-2006 02:00 AM

I revere the X Series for having some of my favorite music from any video game anywhere (such as Armoured Armadillo's stage and Zero's theme from X4). But really I've found a lot of music in all the games I've played that I can really get into this is one seri4es that I feel has been very consistant with great music (tho the quality may have decreased very slightly over time). You want a series who's music has gone down the toilet, look at Street Fighter. Any of those games, even the VS ones. SFII has argueably some of the best old school game music of anything out there, but over the years it's faded from these outstanding, characteristic themes to unrecognizable cacophonies of electronic or dance music. None of the music from any of the new SF games stands out to me at all. The X games have always had SOMETHING good to offer tho.

Kid Icarus 01-09-2006 02:01 AM

It's the sword.

If you had a freakin energy sword, people would like you, too ;).





That's why no one likes me. :cry:

ThirdMarioBro 01-09-2006 03:32 AM

Any Capcom game from 1985-1999 had god like music, and the Mega Max X series is near the top of the list, trumpted only by the regular Mega Man games and Street Fighter II-Alpha 3.

And Mega Man X2 was my favorite. Even the artwork was badass. The sprites were badass. The levels were badass. Hell, even the Nintendo Power Magazine cover was badass. Did i mention the game was badass? Fu*k yeah man. I want this disc now.

yea i remember that cover of megaman x2 on nintedo power. In fact megaman x2 took me a whole day and a half to beat. me and my friend played it together and beat it that long.

Dr. Doom 01-11-2006 01:22 AM

X2 was insanely easy.

Except for Wheel Gator. I hate that son of a bitch.

ThirdMarioBro 01-11-2006 01:40 AM

^^ Indeed. Wheel Gator. *shudder*

Mecha Cow 01-11-2006 08:11 AM

Does anyone know if this is coming out in Europe?

Dr. Doom 01-11-2006 11:07 AM

I remember Wheel Gator being even harder in Mega Man Xtreme on GBC.

I hate that dirty mother****er so much.

Kid Icarus 01-11-2006 11:37 AM

I hated his level. The levels in X2 were stupidly hard... X3 had easy levels, but mostly hard bosses. Hell, Toxic Seahorse stil nearly olmost always kills me, even with Frost Buffalos weapon ;_;.

and mecha... sorry bud, doesn't look like it =\. Damn shame.

Peanut 01-11-2006 01:26 PM

Now THIS looks awesome. A remake of Mega Man X on PSP. Sweeeeet!

Watch the trailer, it looks awesome.

Peanut 01-11-2006 08:04 PM

So far I only have one problem with the collection. It's really hard to play! I almost died on the first level of X thanks to the button layout. It's almost impossible to jump while charging your shot and keep charging because of the akward angle you have to hold the buttons to do so. I haven't changed the button layout yet...but it's seriously annoying.

ThirdMarioBro 01-11-2006 08:17 PM

Don't tell me that bastards kept the jump button on B and the shot on A?

If so, fu*k that. I couldn't play the last collection for that one move. Oh hell, I'll buy it anyway.

Peanut 01-11-2006 08:21 PM

A is jump, B is shoot. It doesn't work either way. I'm probably going to put shoot on Y or X, most likely X and change dash to the L trigger. Anyways, I was jumping through the games and noticed some other things too. In X2 the sound effects seem to be messed up, they cut in and out. It's pretty noticeable. Not THAT bad, but it's still pretty annoying. They also took out the voices from X6. Not that I care, because they were those stupid Japanese voices anyways, but they're still gone. Weren't we promised new voice overs for X6?

Edit: OK. I'm getting very frustrated with the controls of this game. It's like the Gamecube controller just can't do it. The layout just feels akward and uncomfortable. I've tried everything. X as shoot, Y as shoot, B as jump, A as jump. I've even tried R as jump. Using R as shoot would be nice...but it doesn't work. You can configure shoot to the R button, but it doesn't work in the game. I just want to play some f*cking Mega Man, but I'm getting totally frustrated. I'm starting to regret getting it for the Cube. I probably should have gotten it for PS2. :(

Edit 2: I've settled on using Y for shoot, A for jump and L for dash. It seems to work alright. It's still not as good as I want it to be, but it'll do. Chill Penguin is the only one I beat so far. He's always the first one I pick for some reason.

ThirdMarioBro 01-11-2006 09:24 PM

As long as jump can be mapped to A, then I can deal. Cool, I'll buy it now.

Demented Utrom 01-11-2006 11:57 PM

Dr. Doom 01-12-2006 08:08 AM

I remember not plqaying the first collection because you couldn't change the controls, and it was backwards.
