    It's missing some features that would make it a true compendium of Mega Man X, but it's still a great way to play the series today.

    With none of the quality-of-life improvements of the original collection and scarce new features, Mega Man X Legacy Collection can feel like a bit of a let-down, and warrants close consideration from newcomers looking for a little accessibility.

    These games are worth the price, if you enjoy side scrolling action with twist and turns the X legacy Collections 1+2 is the way to go

    I got this collection on an eShop sale, but before I got it, I checked this website's reviews and many people seemed to like the game, theI got this collection on an eShop sale, but before I got it, I checked this website's reviews and many people seemed to like the game, the collection was very expensive and it was a good thing I got it during the eShop Sale, the game's SNES titles has a save feature, so you won't have to write down Passwords in order to resume where you left off, X1 is a classic title, X2 maintained the fun in the franchise but was a step down from X1, as for X3 unless you're a completionist you can skip that one because of the difficulty balancing, X4 was amazing, and it is still a PS1 Treasure to this day, so 3 of the 4 games on the 1st Disk are worth playing, as for the 2nd Disk, even though X5 was pretty good, I didn't like it, X6 on the other hand is a bad game that is still fun if you enter a cheat code on the main menu, even though the load times of X7 were shorter and it was easier to play, it still didn't help that X7 was a terrible game and it is not fun, but the real reason I got this collection was to play X8 since I never played the game before I got the Legacy Collection, and X8 was awesome, and I love it, as for the X Challenges...Unless you want a real challenge and you're an Achievement Hunter, you should just stick to the 8 games in the collection, so yeah it was worth the money and the sale.
