this game is gonna be great, just like every other mega man game out there (with the possible exception of x5). i've already played rockman x6 (the japan version) and it's excellent. i just couldn't read a darn word they said in the game. anyway i only beat yammark and turtloid, but the game is still good. you fight the nightmare zero partway through and if you beat him, zero comes back to life and you can use him as a playable character. my recommendation is go buy this game (it's already out in stores as of 12/06) because of its replay value. the nightmare and random stage systems along with the 128 reploids you gotta save make this a real challenge. long live mega man x!

The Best X Game in a While

The fans screamed for a more difficult X game, and they certainly received it. Megaman X6 is the newest addition to the popular side-scrolling series.

In the year 21XX, Reploids live alongside the human race. Reploids are highly advanced android robots that are capable of making decisions for themselves. However, this technology is very dangerous. When a Reploid decides to turn against a human, he/she becomes a Maverick. An organization called the Maverick Hunters was assembled to neutralize the Mavericks. Megaman X and Zero are the two best Maverick Hunters.

A former leader of the Maverick Hunters, named Sigma, through mysterious circumstances defected and began a revolt against the humans. In the fifth X game, Sigma hired a Reploid mercenary, named Dynamo, to bring down a space colony called Eurasia. Zero gave his life to prevent the colony from destroying the Earth. He was only partially successful, as sections of the planet were decimated by the Eurasia impact.

Reploids descended on ground zero since humans, who retreated underground, are unable to enter the wasteland. There, a scientist Reploid named Gate finds a devious relic. It is not long before Maverick activity appears in the wasteland, and the lone X is sent to investigate. And, so begins Megaman X6.

GRAPHICS:
Megaman X6 pushes the 2-D limits of the PSX hardware with fluid sprite animation and beautiful computer-generated backgrounds. The boss animation has improved since X5. While there is only one real movie sequence in the game, most of the story is moved forward by awesome hand-drawn static artwork.

SOUND:
Megaman X6 sports revised sound effects from X5. Explosion sounds have that little extra 'oomph' to make them quite satisfying. The music is something of a mixed bag on the other hand. While none of it is particularly bad, some of it is not very characteristic of an X game.

GAMEPLAY:
As usual, you have eight different bosses and their respective stages. This time, you match wits against: Commander Yammark (Dragonfly), Rainy Turtloid (Turtle), Shield Shelldon (Shellfish), Blizzard Wolfang (Wolf), Blaze Heatnix (Phoenix), Infinity Mijinion (Flea), Metal Shark Player (Hammerhead shark) and Ground Scaravich (Scarab beetle). After making your way through a stage, you face off against the boss. Upon defeating the boss, you gain the ability to use his weapon for yourself. Play control is tight as usual, and there are two new Armors to find. In fact, there are plenty of secrets and side-quests in this game to keep you occupied for hours. As mentioned before, the game is quite challenging - maybe even frustrating at times. But, in general, you will have a lot of fun with this title.

OVERALL:
If you're a fan of the Megaman games, you're probably going to get this no matter what. But, any gamer starving for a good, old-fashioned side scroller should be impressed by X6. Recommended.

Continues X5 Perfectly

If you liked Magaman X5 you are going to love this game. It is set up the same with the same characters that picks up right where 5 left off. It was a fun game, and better yet, it was a challenge. The game only got 4 stars because it wasn't any better than 5 and Capcom has yet to touch X4. Fun game worth the ($).

Megaman X6 is cool

Better then X5 But still a disappointment

After playing the disappointing X5 I wasn't expecting much out of the sequel, But I hoped X6 would be better but I didn't hold my breath, So when i got X6 in the mail i quickly poped in the old playstation And started playing, I was disappointed yet again, There was no FMV cut scenes but the same stills with subtitles that were in X5 but this time the game makers added dialog to the game, But wait a minute the dialog was in JAPANESE No English dialog! Whats the point? Someone should have told capcom that in the USA we speak ENGLISH! It wouldn't have killed them to re-dub the dialog. The Graphics are great and Sound is very good The gameplay is much better, The game is pretty challenging but some parts are very hard and there are parts in the game were you just can't avoid getting hit by someting?. Controll as in any other megaman game is great and offers a new crouching feature and the ability to use zero's saber. Overall the game is pretty good it offers allot play time and very good gameplay but offers little replay value. It's the little things that make a game great, with no english dialog or FMV cut scenes and a lack of plot it seems to me that X6 was a rush job, X6 is better then X5 but neither live up to the awesome X4. If your a die hard megaman fan then this game is for you, But for all others looking for a good platform game you wont find it here.Pros: Great graphics & sound. Enhanced gameplay. Smooth controlls. lots of armor upgrades. Cons: No FMV cut scenes. No english dialog. lame plot and storyline. Very hard at times. I own every megaman game even the japanese versions not avalible in the USA and it seems to me the megaman series has gone low budget and is at the end of the franchise ladder, I doubt there will be another Megaman game after this one but if there is i hope that capcom will put some effort into the next sequel.

X6 raises the bar!

After the events that had taken place in X5, a new enemy rises! In the latest chapter of the Mega Man X saga, Zero saved the Earth from the Sigma virus and barely survived the last fight - now reported missing in action! Now only X can find his long-time partner and investigate a new penomenon called the Nightmare System which randomizes level maps, enemies and multiple endings based on how well you played the game!

After playing a few levels of X6, I thought it was going to be the same as X5 -- boy, was I wrong! After playing it, I heard the introductions and the cut scenes after defeating a boss with original Japanese dialogue with English translations. This is a must-get for Mega Man lovers alike! By the way, as for the cut scenes, did it sound familiar to you? Well, if you do, you might recognize it from the same cut scenes they did on the 3D fighting game, RIVAL SCHOOLS: UNITED BY FATE.
