The new weapons aren't all that innovative, but the difficulty is back up to where it belongs, not oversimplified cartoon fodder I've seen lately.
Now if only Mega Man would do a Hurricane Kick While this is definitely one of the best games in the X series, it's surprising to know that the real star of the game isn't even Mega Man. X4 retains the series' 2D platform engine.
You run-n-gun through several levels, collecting power-ups and new weapons, while squaring off against tough end bosses. However, X4 adds a second playable character, Zero, and his own story line. Playing as Mega Man is as fun as ever, but Zero steals the show with his own unique attacks and techniques. Instead of an X Buster, Zero uses electro-sabers that force him to get up close and personal to his enemies, ultimately making playing as him more challenging. Mega Man fans will be right at home with X4.
For solid 2D platform gameplay, it's a definite must-have for any action gamer's library. X4 features beautiful 2D sprite graphics. The colorful, gigantic explosions and little details like the recoil of Mega Man's X Buster are state-of-the-art, while the anime cinemas are clean and help enhance the story.
The music goes perfectly with the various stages, especially the thundering bass in the Volcano stage and the conga drums in the Jungle stage. The sound effects are almost as good, but Mega Man's cutesy yelps are distracting.
Mega Man and Zero are simple to maneuver, and the controls hold up beautifully--even later in the game when you acquire more abilities and advanced techniques. Mega Man X4 makes a big splash on the bit platform. Playing as the blue bomber or as Zero is a thumb-busting good time, and the hidden areas and collectable items will keep you playing for hours.
The fourth Mega Man X entry takes the series to the bit arena for more blue-bomber blasting action. Taking a decidedly more serious tone than Mega Man 8 by nixing all the cutesy characters, X4 allows you to play as either the buster-blasting Mega Man X or the lightsword-toting Zero. X4 has excellent controls, which you'll truly appreciate when you start accumulating special weapons and advanced skills. The game looks awesome with tons of detail, screen-filling explosions, and colorful 2D sprite graphics.
Originally slated for release only on the Saturn, X4 is also now coming to the PlayStation. Mega Man is back and he has brought Zero with him. That's right. You're not just restricted to playing as Mega Man, you can now play as his side-kick too. New armies, new battles, new enemies, and most importantly, new bosses highlight Mega Man's latest and greatest adventure. Mega Man is one of the longer running series on any gaming system.
He has not only battled his way through tons of enemies, but also through three generations of home gaming systems. I have not played many of the other Mega Man games in the past, so I was really excited to pop in Mega Man X4 to see what all the rumbling is about. All I can say is Mega Man X4 is challenging gameplay, period. If you are not familiar with the story of Mega Man , you're not alone. While I haven't spent much time playing any of these games, there's good reason for this: a lot of the titles never even made it to the U.
It really does not affect the gameplay, but you will get the feeling that you are running into characters that may have been in previous games. The most common asked question I get about Mega Man is "What is it? The best way to describe this game is "old school.
Mega Man X4 is a side scroller in which you jump and shoot at anything that gets in your way. Then, you will meet up with the ugly boss at the end of the level. If you destroy him, you move to the next level that follows the same formula.
I will say that Capcom did throw in a curve ball by giving you the freedom to choose your levels, instead of following a pre-selected path. One of the new features of this game is the ability to play as either Mega Man or his side-kick Zero. Each of the two characters play differently. Mega Man has a blaster that helps him mow down the enemies, while Zero is armed with a sword-type weapon.
My first thought was to play with the character that has the gun. After a while, I found that Zero and his sword were quite effective too. Since you can play as both characters, they must have added a two-player cooperative mode, right?
This would have been cool to have the two different characters fighting together. Since each of the characters has their strong points, it would have done wonders to team up against the bad guys. It was a little disappointing that it was only a one-player game. The biggest thing this game has going for it, aside from the addicting gameplay, is the levels.
There are tons of levels and they are NOT easy. The levels ranged from fighting your way through the jungle, on snow, on a moving train, and much more. Even though this works as typical side scrolling game, that is not an entirely accurate description.
On some levels, you must work your way up a spiraling staircase. Other levels have you constantly moving on a motorbike.
All in all, there was a great variety of levels and a good diversity to keep you interested. I do have one warning for you. This is not a kiddy game. Not because of violence or profanity, but because of difficulty. Actually, this is one of the harder games like this that I have played. Working your way through the levels is usually not to difficult. The game get really difficult once you face off against the level boss.
I would finally figure out a pattern to beat the damn thing, only to have him change up his attack half way through. This sucked because I was usually hanging on by the skin of my teeth and when the boss would change up his attack, I didn't stand a chance. It was quite frustrating, but in the end rewarding when you did manage to drop the beast.
Did I mention the sub-bosses? There are many signs of a good game but one tell-tale indicator is if you get "trigger thumb. I think the first time I suffered from this was playing Asteroids on my old Atari system. It is when you press the trigger button so many times and so fast that your thumb gets sore. I started to develop this after playing Mega Man X4 for awhile. That tells me the action is intense and the game held my attention enough to make my thumb sore.
Another cool thing you'll encounter during the game is called Robot Ride Armor. This was armor that was located at random locations throughout the levels. But otherwise, I like the Achievement and Shop features, so beginners can get an easier start with the shop while veterans can use the Achievements to test their skills. The difficulty levels can let noobs get an easier time or pros can try to beat it on hard. I also love the second soundtrack you can get in the shop.
By the way fixing these 2 issues will make the game far more enjoyable. The Directional-pad needs improvement on quick movements, changing direction quickly is very difficult and not fluid like it is on the console versions. With that issue in mind performing the hadouken is very difficult, next to impossible. Privacy practices may vary, for example, based on the features you use or your age. Learn More.
