  Mega Man X Collection (cube: 2006): Reviews
Join Mega Man X and Zero as they relive all six of their first Mega Man X adventures.
Mega Man X Collection follows the same basic formula as Capcom's excellent first Mega Man compilation, but it just doesn't have quite as much to offer.
X collection is no different, and will probably fail to bring in any new fans to the iconic character.

 Mega Man X (character) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
X, though, was led away from the real targets by a spy of Sigma named Double and it was Zero this time who foiled Sigma's plan by hunting down the Repliforce and destroyeing its top officers and Sigma himself, killing a good friend named Colonel and the love of his life Iris in the process.
Being a Maverick Hunter, and a upgraded model from the original Mega Man designed for battle, Mega Man X is a powerful robot equipped with various abilities and powers to aid in his persucution of Mavericks and their threat to the peace and stability of the planet Earth.
This ability is similar to Mega Man's slide maneuver in that it makes X a smaller target while simultaneously increasing his speed, but unlike the slide, X is capable of using the ability to leap further than normal in a "dash jump", as well as dash from objects to which he is clinging.

 Mega Man ZX Nintendo DS Video Game Review by AceGamez
The characters (all of which have some sort of robotic costume, if not actually are robots) also make heavy use of the large palate, with shades of every color to bring out all their mechanical details.
Obviously, Mega Man has a few notable differences when compared to the Metroid and Castlevania series, one being the high level of difficulty, but Capcom's inability to fully commit to adapting their game to this new style ends up undercutting the advantages of pursuing the combination in the first place.
Mega Man ZX is not a bad Mega Man game by any stretch; the wonderful presentation and tried-and-true game play will easily appeal to long time fans of the series who have yet to grow tired of what Capcom has to offer them.

 Rockman X Command Mission (Mega Man X Command Mission) Review
Rockman X Command Mission (known as Mega Man X Command Mission in regions outside of Japan) is Capcom's latest Mega Man spin off.
X and Zero are investigating a group of rebel Maverick robots.
X's action move is his classic charge shot, once you enable this you hold down the circle button to transfer stored weapons energy in your attack.

 RPGFan Previews - Mega Man X Command Mission
The standard "attack" option is available for each character with slight variations on each: X will shoot an enemy once with a strong shot, Axl uses his pistols to fire two - admittedly weaker - shots, and Zero will slash a foe twice with his saber.
X's charge shot requires the player to hold A until an on-screen meter hits 100, after which a massive burst of energy (oddly resembling the same charge shot in the original MMX) hits the enemy.
Very strangely for a Mega Man title, there seemed to be no way to jump in the show version, which hopefully will be included in the final release.

X is the first robot ever who could think for himself, as well as having his own feelings and emotions.
X feels that it is up to him to rid the world of the Mavericks and bring peace for both humans and reploids.
Light is the creator of X. His true reasons as to why he made X is not fully known, but it is known that he could not live until the day that X's capabilities and reliability could be confirmed.

Mega Man’s slide maneuver was replaced with a nice dash, and he could now scale walls at ease.
Mega Man X3 added the option to briefly play as Zero, which wasn’t particularly helpful considering the guy got none of your upgrades and couldn’t even fight in boss battles.
Mega Man X4 is another title that many claim to be the best in the series.

 GameSpy: Mega Man and Bass Review
Mega Man and Bass is the first return to the core series in six years, but doesn't live up to most of its predecessors.
Mega Man arrives just a tad too late and embarks on a quest to defeat King and his mechanical cronies.
Mega Man and Bass progress through the eight levels (all selectable through an expanding tree structure), defeat the bosses, and collect their weapons to use against other bosses.

 Mega Man X: The Reploid Wars
I think it'd be uncharacteristic of him to give up the life of doing as he wishes, coming and going as he may, to obey the orders of strangers, as the Maverick Hunters were to him at the time.
That all changed when he found his brother, X. He wanted to be next to X and, well...
When X was brought to Maverick Headquarters, there was a conversation between Doppler and Vile.

 GameSpy.com - Interview
Capcom's newest Mega Man X is, for the first time in a few installments, a brand-new game -- and heading up the changes is Producer, Tatsuya Kitabayashi, a new face for the series who brings his own ideas to bear.
One of them was that, of course, Mega Man X has traditionally been a 2D character -- he's been a flat, 2D piece of art.
This is what the series is, you can't totally change it all of the sudden and X is flying or something like that, you have to follow the guidelines.

 Welcome to Megaman.Net!
X was created in the year 20XX by Dr. Light, but was sealed in a capsule for 30 years, because of the risks the emotion system contained.
X was the only one capable of stopping them, and was sent after them.
X managed to defeat the first group of Mavericks with the help of the mysterious Zero, another hunter, and upgrades given to him from capsules placed by Dr. Light in the past to help X become more powerful, should he ever have to fight.

 Mega Man X Collection for GameCube Review - GameCube Mega Man X Collection Review
The X games take place in what would be considered the relatively near future, from where all the standard Mega Man games begin (the future of the future, if you will).
Mega Man X Collection isn't nearly the resounding success that Capcom's first Mega Man compilation was, but it's far from a failure.
Mega Man ZX returns to the original 2D side scrolling action, with a new cast of characters and a choice of heroes.

 GAF - News - New details surface on Mega Man X Collection
Mega Man X fans, fasten your seatbelts, because this is going to be one doozy of a ride.
Currently under consideration is an English dub for the story-heavy Mega Man X5 (the extent of which seems to just be voices for X, Zero, and Dynamo for now; this is rather unclear at the moment), and that indeed would be a treat were it to actually happen.
The way he sounds in Mega Man X8 is how he's always sounded in the Rockman X games and it was really perfect...

 RPGamer > Review > Mega Man X Command Mission
Characters have Life Energy (LE) and Weapon Energy (WE); LE speaks for itself, although WE begins at a character's default amount when a battle commences, and increases by 25% when he/she reaches his/her turn.
Characters consume WE to use one, two, or both Subweapons each can equip, with various effects such as damaging an enemy, charging up the power of his/her Main Weapon, and so forth (a character can use his/her main weapon alongside his/her Subweapons; Main Weapons consume no WE).
Each character also has a Hyper Mode, where they transform into a more powerful form, occasionally with special Action Triggers and Subweapons, and usable for only a certain number of turns before "cooling down" to their original forms; players can recover Hyper Mode turns at healing facilities or by using Gain Hyper items.

 GamerBase \ Mega Man X
Mega Man X, knowing that part of this world chaos was his fault, and therefore he set off to save the world from Sigma, who was now the Maverick leader.
Zero explained that X was not powerful enough to fight Vile or Sigma at that moment.
But what would annoy X the most is that he constantly throws junk at you, including missiles.

 Mega Man X Command Mission - GameCube Review
X (who has, needless to say, forgotten everything he learned in the first seven games in the series) is sent to Giga City with his partner Zero and an enemy informant, Shadow, to investigate the maverick Epislon.
In addition, a character can unleash a special attack using all their weapon energy when it is at least at 50, and it grows more powerful as the amount of energy used increases.
Characters talk practically nonstop during battles, which would be more tolerable if any character had more than two samples for any given action.

 RPGamer - Preview - Mega Man X: Command Mission
Despite over two dozen Mega Man titles being released since then, with occasional deviations from the classic formula (including Mega Man Soccer), there has yet to be an entry in the series to embrace the RPG genre.
X was created by Dr. Light, creator of the original Mega Man, because he foresaw that the future would need a protector.
The scientist Dr. Cain uncovered Mega Man X in the future and, using X as a prototype, constructed a new breed of robots called "Reploids".
