The final boss blows but other than that one of the best Mega Man's out there.

Excelente en todo sentido de la palabra, Tematica, Sountrack, progresion, etc.

Una obra maestra cortesia de Capcom.

Innovative movement options, and strong level design that takes advantage of them, are a breath of fresh air for the franchise at large.

There are parts of this game that suck sure, like the misleading passwords for the sigma stages, or all of sigma 1 for that matter, but once you get past those very tiny down spots, they game itself rules. Memorable catchy music, great level design and balanced special weapons all work to make you feel like a badass. The game is challenging to boot, with you never feeling like the bosses are too easy, at least early on in the game. This is such a good mega man game, and platformer, I suggest everyone plays it.


Provavelmente o jogo que mais zerei na vida - todo santo ano dou pelo menos uma rejogada. Ainda considero o melhor jogo de plataforma 2D da existência, com level design impecável, música obscenamente boa e desafio na medida. Continuo à espera de algo capaz de superá-lo.

Sick game and a great start for the series. I know it's a staple of Mega Man, but I still have to say how getting past each Maverick in your own order and finding out how to take on them is really entertaining and lends itself to tons of replay value. The music is simply amazing all around.
The last stages can be quite challenging, but rewarding. My only issue with them is that they're a little awkwardly paced with the bosses, especially when I compare it to the sequel. The final boss was also very difficult, and defeating him was so absolutely satisfying that I cannot quite express it with words.

Great game and I don't think it has any meaningful enough shortcomings.

One thing that always strikes me is how phenomenal the sound design is. Yes, the music is obviously fantastic, but the BLAST of a charged Mega Buster never fails to impress. Dashing around, climbing up walls... It's just so much fun. While the story is nothing special, there's this quality to the X bootup cutscene that pulls at my imagination. And then the title screen! And the intro stage!! Someone at Capcom knew how to bring the HYPE. Timeless!!!!

I prefer the Classic Series to X, but this game is still my favorite Megaman game. Its one of the few games I would dare to call perfect. If you are even remotely interested in platformers, play this game. now.

the super weapons are good

mega man has never been this good again but ya didn't hear that from me

Fantastic level design, perfect controls, difficult but fair, badass soundtrack. One hell of a game.

X is a near perfect platformer. It moves along with an absolutely astounding soundtrack, phenomenal theming, and progression-based upgrades driving the game. The weapons all feel fun and useful, which is something the classic series really struggled with on the NES.

X is a game all about improving, and the player growing alongside X feels so fluid and natural that it's hard to beat. Sigma is difficult final boss that leads to the kind of catharsis you can only get from games like this once you finally get that last hit in. My only change would be to have the dash be default.

Oh Boy This Sure Is Mr. Megaman But Like Cooler Or Something.

-1 full star for flame mammoth i hate that fucker

what if they replaced megaman with swag

Another great start to another great Mega Man series.

It's good. I liked it.
Kinda indifferent. It didn't leave a huge impact on me - but I thought that it was dumb that Chill Penguin has the dash in his stage, instead of just having it outright.

Used the MSU-1 patch, and man... Unbelieavable

Still a classic.

Mega Man X is a lot rougher coming back than the last time I played, with about half the levels being a bit simplistic but still SO heavily carried by the rocking music. The backtracking I can just genuinely do without too, as secret-hunting on this one in general is really boring, including even a couple of the minibosses they throw in front of it.

But what shines the most here is the game's strong as hell energy, and the bosses that are almost all excellent. Sigma 4 in its entirety still gives me a load of trouble to this day, and they're all very fair to learn if a bit ridiculous at times. Still my favorite of the action-platformer Mega Mans.

AAAHAHAHHH TASUKETE ZERO NOON PLEASE VILE THE HORROR IT'S UNSPEAKABLE NOOOOOOOOOO AAAHAGHGGHG IM LOSING MY MIND


It is the only game that I completed at 100% by the moment. The main mechanics make the game more dynamic and an improvement or evolution of the classic series. The developers put a great effort in the details making that even to these days, many people find some features that they didn´t notice

This is a contender for one of the single greatest video games ever made. Tight controls, amazing weapons, that grunge as fuck soundtrack, the incredible spritework, the feel of X growing as a fighter signified by him gaining the Armor Set that makes him look similar to Zero. Everything in this game has been crafted for one of the best experiences I've ever had, a game I have had the opportunity of learning inside and out over the past 5 years since I started playing it. Just an excellent game.
