It was such a good game. Gameplay was as solid as ever, Weapons were both versatile and unique, and that soundtrack was orgasmic. Hard to believe it's been almost 10 years.

Wasn't as big a fan of 10. They played a bit too much with the formula and it felt more like a fangame than a new iteration. Not a bad game, but not as impactful imo.

Tell that to Roll and Tron Bonne.

MML3 is forever lost. ZX at least had rumors of a 3rd game.

Look where they left the Legends series.

The soundtrack blew me away.

I know they didn't use a real NES to make the soundtrack, but they kept the same limitations and pushed them to the absolute limit. All of those interconnecting motifs and voices, seamless transitions, fast paced hard rock style we all know and love.

ZX was better than Legends though, and the cliffhanger still burns my soul.

ZX felt a bit clumsier than the Zero series. It was innovative in the Biometal/A-trans system and the open world feel, but it also fell short in some regards, especially with the more niche transformations

Yeah but thankfully Zero had a conclusion, and yes its way better than ZX, but still, it supposed to be the conclusion of the whole Megaman X saga, and... poof...

I would have liked it better without the store/bolts and I didn't quite like all the levels as much as MM1-6, but it was pretty much the best they could have done for Mega Man at that time.

Mega Man vs. Street Fighter was decent too, but I've never really had the urge to replay it. I still wish they'd officially remake MM7&8 in 8-bit, or at least translate and add some story scenes to the fan remakes.

In retrospect, I kind of blame MM9 for the whole 8-bit indie game fad that's been going on the last few years. Wasn't really a thing until MM9 revived it.

If we could have had ZX3 and MML3, I would have been more than happy to bid the Mega Man series farewell, assuming those games brought a conclusion to the ZX and Legends stories. It had to end eventually, and were those plots resolved, it would have been fine...but no, they just had to leave us with two massive cliffhangers and stories that will never be finished. It still eats at me inside.

I get especially nostalgic over Splash Woman's theme for some reason.
