THE BAD:
Too easy and too frustrating

SUMMARY:
The characters ability are good, X, Zero, Alia is great characters, the music are great, sounds are good, the gameplay is good, the bosses are good looking. It is too easy, kinda hard for some enemies (some levels are frustrating, and the boss music is stupid. Mega Man X5 is a good game to play on the playstation version. Don't try Mega Man X6 the bosses are way easy and some some levels are frustrating except the music are good and sounds are good. Mega Man X5 is my 3rd favorite X series. The story is better than X6, X7, and X4.

THE GOOD:
Zero and his moves.X and his moves.Lots of endings,he%% ya.Two new armor.Fun,looks great.Oh and Zero can get a cool black armor at the end of the game.Or put in this code.Down two times and then up nine times.If this does not work try it the other way around.

THE BAD:
Too easy,too short.Plot is somewat lacking.Cinematics Inferior too X4.

SUMMARY:
Its about beating the game in 16 tries and geting X's two cool armors,the Falcon and Gaia armor.I like the Falcon armor best,you fly!The Gaia armor is slow but packs a wallop!And with it you can walk on spikes Well the bottomline is Its,fun looks great,a little easy but xtreame mode fixes that.Just buy it if your a megaman fan.If you cant get this game in your local area,try www.amozon.com.It has megamans X1 all the way to the new X7.They even have the increadibly rare and expensive(Its lowest price is 95.00)Megaman X3.

THE GOOD:
It has the same gameplay style that the MegaManX veteran fans won't be dissapointed by.

THE BAD:
The level layout is poor. The levels don't offer any tricky obstacles like some of X5's predessesors do. The story hasn't gone anywhere on the MMX titles lately. Sigma is behind everything, and Dynamo has no reason to be in this game. The outcome would be the same even if he wasn't in the game. And there is no reason for the tutorial stage. And it points out the obvious.

SUMMARY:
I'm a MegaManX fan, and I was so excited when I first got this game. After about 20 minutes, I was dissapointed when I played this installment to the series. It was SO PREDICTABLE. I think Capcom should take a break from the X series for a little while, or they should make the story go somewhere. I hope a twist happens in X7.

THE GOOD:
The gameplay for this game requires timing, positioning, and a balanced distribution of power in your chosen fighter. The good of this game includes and surrounds the storyline. Where lingering questions are answered and a deeper look into the character's soul emerges. This section of the story possesses a theme of answers to the questions the other games posed. It has also drawn in new characters that will change the flow of the story throughout all upcoming games. As they have affected the outcome of an event, or struck something within the main characters. The gameplay starts off with minimal power to work with, and as you progress through to game, you gain more and more power. As that happens, everything has a smooth and natural feel to it.

THE BAD:
Simply, I could see no bad in this game. Forgive my lack of detail, but there is nothing to go against. This is a classic addition to the series and should be treated as such.

THE GOOD:
It's a damn Megaman! The X series has its pros against the original series... like, giving the characters some depth. Love the armor options.

THE BAD:
Just like all of the Megaman X games, this is hard. Insanely hard, as someone put it. That description goes especially to Squid Adler and his level.

SUMMARY:
First of all, I haven't cleared this game yet, but I've already formed some kind of an opinion.

I've quit active playing a long time ago, but I'm always up for playing a Megaman when I get the chance. Megaman kicks ass, simply... but there are some qualities to the X games that I dislike...

First of all, the difficulty is sometimes just damn rediculous. It's said about Rockman & Forte somewhere that the designers throw everything and the kitchen sink at you. I think that phrase fits this title very well, too.

The optional armor thing is a cool thing. I do like Zero, but not so much as a playable...

THE GOOD:
Great grafix and overall good gameplay.

THE BAD:
Hard as hell. Zero is 1,000,000 times better than X. Couldn't beat it without a gameshark.

SUMMARY:
Well its an ok game. like i said great grafix and gameplay, oh and sigma aint dead. not completely. i don't think he dies in x6 either but i don't remember. x6 was definitely easier than x5, oh btw if anyone can help me find an iso for x4 i'd appreciate it. hopefully i'm not out of bounds when i ask that. my icq is listed.

Written by jordan fuller USA
i would choose this over the other two (megaman X4 and X6) because you have the choice of picking either zero or X right away. While in the other two, either you only get to pick one or you have to wait to play both charaters. but the bad part is your racing the clock to complete a main objective. If you dont make it in time, you would lose the game or zero.

THE GOOD:
Nice armours and some good weopons. I havent played any, I mean Any of the other Megamen games so I wouldnt know what it is like in comparision.

THE BAD:
makes you reaaaaaly ticked.

SUMMARY:
I traded Wild 9 (another playstation game) for this so i'm fairly impressed with the gameplay. it was fun so cool enough. Zero would whip X anyday though... even if they did give x kick a$$ armour and Zero nothing... damn swedish *groumble*...

Written by Akira_EX United States
THE GOOD:
X and Zero can be switched in between missions nefore you choose the stage
More armors for X (Falcon and Gaia), Fourth and Ultimate Armor make a reappearance, and so does Zero's Black Armor
Z-buster returns!

THE BAD:
No anime scenes
Z-buster sucks

SUMMARY:
Rockman X5... good, but not as good as X4. The manual hardly helps, as the game gives all the Mavericks and techniques different names, along with giving the Fourth Armor the name, Force Armor.

The best part about Rockman X5 is that you no longer have to create seperate files to play as X and Zero, like in X4. In between missions, you can choose whether you want to play as X, any armor X, or Zero.

More armors this time around. The Falcon Armor, which lets you fly, the Gaia Armor which is strong, seeing how it lets you walk on spikes. Fourth Armor makes a reappearance from X4, with a Plasma buster. Ultimate Armor returns and is still...

THE GOOD:
Fun factors are high! Definetely better than the older and more evolved X4...

THE BAD:
Graphics... The user cannot manually adjust the graphic rendering, resolution, and refresh rate. Heck, even the game doesn't adjust the graphics...they just come standard.

SUMMARY:
Great game for children! Fun as another other 2D side-scroller! Oh yea... Buy @ www.capcom.com for $19.99! It's worth the money!

Also, the game (full version) is available for download...if you know what an ISO is...but let's leave that for later::much later! =) EnJoY ... eNjOy
