The good X games are X, X2 and X4

X4 was pretty mediocre and I say this as someone who started with it.

Megaman X games were never good OP. The series died with Megaman 6 on NES.
X1>X2>X3>X4>an average game>X5>X6>X7
I haven't played any other series that went this consistently downhill. X8's supposed to be better but at that point I was pretty sick of MMX

Is it just me or does Axl resemble Model A a bit?
>>344334478
You might be onto something here, anon.
>>344334478
That sort of the general idea. Similar abilities as well.
Also the big reason you see a lot of art pairing Gray/Ashe with him.
>>344334478
I think Model A was going to be the Axl of that series, but his unpopularity nixed those plans.
>>344331569
That was the one that started the downfall, though. X1-3 were better, and while X4 was the least bad of the PS1 exclusives it was still garbage.
>>344334183
I'm not implying anything. In fact I liked the normal, X, Zero and ZX series. Haven't played the BN nor the Legends series yet.
I liked X7It was my first game
>>344335252
That post made me Maverick, Anon.
>>344335796
I didn't even know about the other games in the series besides legends 1 and 2. I thought it was called X7 because of the mavericks you face (even though there was 8 of them...)
I thought Megaman was always 3D until I went from star force -> battle network -> discovered X1-X6/X8 and MM1-10
X8 is better, though.
>only
X and X2, yo. X8 is surprisingly competent, too.
>>344333612
>the game that gave us the motherfucking Jet Suit killed Megaman
I'll concede that MM6 isn't the best designed game in the series but Jet Suit, motherfucker.
>people like the SNES games
Why? They play so sluggishly and dullardly, plus you have to play as that nerd X instead of Zero master race.
>>344337345
X1 is the best X game of them all you fucking bitch
>>344337345
If anything the PS1 games are a hair slower than the SNES titles, not to mention the artstyle doesn't get in the way of the platforming on them. I say all this as a X4fag, but the SNES games aren't bad either. Well, I can't speak for X3 because I played it once and can't remember it for the life of me but X1/2 are great.

Look at the opening stage and its dithered lights, X4 looks worse on Saturn
>>344338116
It's a return to sound form but it's not the best in the series. Hell, any game that has a stage as bad as Manowar's is invalidated from top billing out of sheer principle.
>>344338116
The mechanics were rock solid but the levels were pretty lame this time around. I didn't like the snow level or Gigabolt Manowar.

>>344341029
>X8 that high
It's not a bad title but some stages are utter shit.
>>344337748
Higher quality audio, and some slight differences in certain tracks.
To be specific, the beginning of Eregion has a jingle there that isn't in the PS1/PS1-derived versions, and Frost Walrus pt2 has a slight change at the beginning. I've heard claims of there being some differences in Cyber Peacock's music as well, but this one I can't confirm first hand.
The audio also loops nicely rather than the little break->repeat that comes with the PS1 version.
>>344338071
>>344338201
You're right on the dithering bit and lack of transparencies, but you do get a neat heat haze effect in the background of Sky Lagoon pt2 that isn't there in the PS1 derived versions.
>>344341623
Doesn't the Saturn version have less slowdown as well?
>>344340989
>Zero series
>can't learn new attacks from beating the bosses
>swordplay is downgraded from the 32-bit games
IT'S TRASH SON.
>>344341850
It wouldn't be surprising, but I haven't done any direct comparisons for stuff like that. The music quality is immediately recognizable for anyone who has played a decent amount of X4 or listened to the OST enough.
In turn, it seems like a select few of the sound effects(specifically ones that apply to the title screen and save menus) end before they're intended to.
Another difference the Saturn versions of the Mega Man games have is the absolutely abysmal FMV quality over the PS1 version due to a lack of hardware mpeg decoding, but this is a problem with MANY Saturn games and not specific to just Capcom's offerings.
In terms of special weapons, I think X4 was kind of lame. X's special weapons were all weird and not very useful. Zero's special weapons were just basic abilities like double jump or slashing while dashing.
That being said, I can never play as Zero in an X game anymore. The Zero series spoiled me. Zero's movements and attacks are all so fucking smooth and perfect that X-series Zero feels like a so, clunky toaster to me.
This is probably bait, butI agree.
>>344342394
Yeah, what I read was that the Saturn version had slightly less impressive graphics, didn't handle the pseudo-3D stuff or Animu clips as well and had certain sound effects get clipped in exchange for a better soundtrack and less slowdown overall.
>>344342376
>can't learn new attacks from beating the bosses
But that's wrong. Literally git gud.
>>344342376
>can't learn new attacks from beating the bosses
Starting from Z2, you can. But only if you get an A-rank or better.
>swordplay is downgraded from the 32-bit games
Bull-fucking-shit. He has the basic triple-strike. He can jump-slash and has dash-slash as a basic move from the very start. He can unlock rolling slashes, an alternate dash-slash, rising, downward and a sword beam. His dash is insanely smooth, everything connects really well. Zero series Zero is a perfect, well-oiled machine of death and destruction.
>>344342709
>the pseudo-3D stuff
I completely forgot about the background stuff from the Final Weapon stages. I'll have to remember to give that a look next time I play it.

>>344343924
Git gud. Besides, the only Ex-skills that really make even slightly easier are the rising and dash attacks. The rest are just nice to look at, but most of them are pretty impractical.
To begin with, in the X-series games, most of Zero's learned skills are just basic maneuvers, like double-jump or a sword that reflects small bullets.

>>344347346
Not everyone grew up playing bad Super Nintendo games, letting nostalgia cloud our judgement.
>>344331569
Wasn't the only good one, but it was a damn solid title.
The only thing I really didn't like about it was the overuse of reverb. Fucking every voice and sound in the game outside of cutscenes echo'd with it, and it got pretty annoying after awhile.
>>344351992
Not nearly as annoying as how much X3 used the same instrument samples way too much.
>>344352251
>bland, phoned-in regular soundtrack

X3 had it rough in the music. Couldn't win no matter which way you took.

I also liked Maverick Hunter for being able to play as Vile
>>344353531
X3's bosses were weak and the weapons weren't the best. But it had the best playground for extra items, and a divergent castle stage to use them in.
>>344353531
The main thing I liked about X3 was the conditionals. Like having to defeat Vile with something that obviously killed the fucker instead of just shooting him, to set up the saber chance, or the stage changes like enemies losing armanents after hornet's supply depot is taken. That stuff has always made X games interesting.
Ride armor can fucking blow me though. There's no reason it's ever been in any game that's used it. You can take it out, and you lose literally nothing except a few mecha fags screaming. Even less of a fan of shit they shoehorn in just to get one or two items.
>>344353941
The bosses were much stronger than in X1 and X2.
>>344331898
And X8
>>344354087
>You can take it out, and you lose literally nothing except a few mecha fags screaming.
Ouch. That hurt.
But yes, X3's variety Ride Armors was pretty pointless. There's a reason why no other X game did that ever again.

>>344354117
Maybe they were stronger, I honestly don't have a recollection on that. But they had too many too large and immobile, and their patterns among one another were repetitive.
All this ranking faggotry is starting to remind me of the godawful Final Fantasy threads. Can't we all just agree that all the games had their own strengths and weaknesses? The one exception being X7 which did absolutely nothing right.
>>344354728
Lol he's definitely a SJW, in his Sonic Colors Q&A he was saying how he wouldn't being making the types of jokes he made in his older videos, also he's friends with the BSC crew which is (besides Johnny) SJW.
>>344355046

>Don't forget his Mega Man 4 LP where he started ranting about Pharaoh Man's bad point being "too nice to girls" without ever realizing that it was a mistranslation.
You really can't hold that one against him, though. It's not like he deliberately ignores the truth to push SJW shit like the other fuckers do, he legitimately has no idea (or didn't, at the time).
>>344355205
Yeah but dashjumping off a wall is more than adequate for that though. Except for Sigma MKVI and ... hang on ... Godkarmachine O Inary.

Because the map is atrocious in the first game and everything else other than the protagonists is more or less forgettable.
