    They look, sound and feel just like the originals.

    Four worthwhile games, two stinkers, and one oddity.

    All 6 games (and one bonus) still stand as some of the best and most challenging of 2D gaming, starring one of the most revered characters in the gaming universe. [Jan 2006, p.49]

    An excellent flashback to old-school gaming in its finest hour. [Feb 2006, p.70]

    It's a shame that there aren't as many games on this compilation as there were on the Anniversary Collection ("Mega Man Soccer" really should've been included), but you're still getting some fun games (expect, of course, "Mega Man X6").

    If you can put up with a few outdated cliches, and the occasional irritation, though, this collection has a lot of prime gaming packed onto the disc. [Feb 2006, p.103]

    The original Mega Man X is my second favorite game in the series, though it is easily one of the most carefully polished and well put together games in the series.

    Even though the later Mega Man titles are not as good as the first few, it is still a very incredible collection of Mega Man X games in one nice little package.

    As a compilation, this is a nicely rounded collection of classic games, presented flawlessly and filled with just enough bonuses to satisfy the hardcore fans. Not all the games are great, but the total package is well worth the price.
  12. GameShark

    In the grand scheme of things, this collection of X is quite good, though I prefer the original series for its curtailed story and straightforward gameplay.

    The emulation here is great, all games run perfect here, and they even included the PSX version of Mega Man X3!
    The Gallery is good, the extra game is unexpected and... kinda lame, Battle & Chase?
    The only issue I found is that Mega Man X6 doesn't have audio clips on the dialogues...
    Overall, this collection is a far superior way of playing these games than Legacy Collection.    … Full Review »

    Endless fun, but Gamecube version is better. However if you include the newest releases/gens, then get the pc versions.
