I remember very little of my playthrough of this game, and not in a way that makes me feel a "I should replay this" mood. All I can remember is this game being very frustrating, having a very empty plot, and feeling like a grand step down from X5. The Nightmare effects are also not that interesting and the level design is very jank.

It gets the rating it does solely because I think the encounter with Sigma is a fun concept and because the 32-bit graphics are pretty. I wouldn't put it past anyone who wants to skip this game in their journey through the Mega Man series.
