Capcom Mega Man X Legacy Collection 1 + 2 (#) /Switch

son very happy

must own

When I was looking round for a new game to fill my time after completing Devil May Cry, I stumbled across this little gem. This game has everything you could possibly ask for; some stunning graphics and cut-scenes (just wait until you see trees swaying in the breeze!), tricky puzzles, and some really addictive combat. I found myself praying for more monsters and hellish demons after being able to finish a whole bunch off in spectacular fashion! Being able to knock down the enemies and dispatch them with your sword before they have chance to get up is most impressive! This game isn't just simply about 'hack 'n' slash', however, there are a few devilish puzzles scattered throughout that will get you really involved in the game. Finally a word on the sound. The makers of the game really got the atmosphere just right in my opinion, recreating that distinct 'feudal japan' sound. This games a real treat to play and if you liked Devil May Cry or Soul Reaver, you're gonna love this! 5 *'s!!!!!

I ordered this knowing it was an import but this hadn’t bothered me given the switch is region free, however it wasn’t clear that the x2 legacy collection was only available as a download which are not region agnostic, so I can only play half of the content which is disappointing. Please make this clearer for future customers or on other similarly impacted products.

The Megaman X Legacy Collection 1 is supplied on a game cartridge. This is, presumably, fine - I didn't boot it up (for reasons that will become available), but it did show up on my Switch home screen. Megaman X2Legacy Collection 2, however, is supplied as a download code in the box... And the code doesn't work. I double-, triple-, and quadruple-checked the code to make sure I'd typed it in correctly. Then I figured I may just be missing something, and put the entire code in from scratch again. Then I double and triple checked that. It was right, exactly as provided... and it just kept giving me a "This software is unavailable" error. Looking at the other reviews here, it's clear this isn't an anomaly or some repeated mistake on my part... the download codes in this set just do not work, at least for UK/EU Switch accounts. That means this set, in practice, is only half the games it's supposed to be - Megaman X 5, 6, 7 and 8 cannot be downloaded or played. You definitely should not buy this set.

Having seen screen shots for its preview, I could only compare the awe-inspiring graphics to the latest arcade games that so put a burning hole in my school trousers. For so long did we have the standard that computer and console games could not equal the power of a coin operated arcade machine. Yet when I played Onimusha Warlords all these memories of anticipation and Xmas present-opening came back. I will try and explain: Firstly, the graphics. The title sequence sees the PS2 really flex it's movie muscles showing characters with near real expressions and complexion, and battle scenes that leave you wondering how long did it take to even conceive an idea. Plus with many games having a mind-blowing intro, the main game graphics are no let down but prove how much work has gone into this title. The second encounter for the main character within the game is still my favourite - those skeleton warriors. Other charcters can only be treated with 'rabbit in the headlights' syndrome watching their movement (until its too late!). All in all this is real eye-candy and you can see where the £10 million budget went. The second arcade feel comes in the guise of the Gameplay. Whoever programs this at Capcom is a genius. Every slash, cut, stab and slice is accurately communicated between controller and character leading to total player satisfaction. With easy to use controls, putting in that final killer stab and removing the sword from an enemy's guts puts the biggest grin on your face. As well as the fighting, the main character needs the spirit energies of defeated enermies to keep living (long story!) so the character has a mini-vacuum cleaner to suck up those spirits. As well as the satisfaction from the controller response, the games depth comes to light as there are different kinds of spirit that go towards replenishing your character's health, magic and orb power. Now the downside: The game's life leaves you thinking 'I want more, alot more!' - almost a victim of its own success. So much effort has been put into the visuals, sounds, and gameplay that a good games player can have it polished off in days. By comparison to Capcom's other close related success, Resident Evil, Onimusha Warlords only has a little more than half the game life. Maybe O.W.2 will deal with these small nagging problems which, like in all product development issues, will become more important to the games player. The only thing left to complete the 'true arcade experience' would be to build a cabinet with blinker vision side panels, plant a telly in it and your PS2 and hey-presto, no distractions like your girlfriend nagging "go through THAT door" and "don't fight him!" but instead a personal experience which transports you to medieval Japan.

first the good points - Onimusha is an excellent game with amazing graphics, effects and is very playable. The levels are well put together and you get a sence of urgency when trying to find keys to open doors or ways to progress to other parts of the game. The game itself has lots of cool features, most enjoyable is the dark realm bonus stage, a great idea. Now the bad points - It only took me 4 days to complete and i didnt use any guides or tips from magazines. Those players who have completed any of the tomb raider or resi evil games will find this very easy, apart from this the game is awesome fun and im still playing it to uncover all the secerets.It does keep you coming back for more. Its one of the best games out for the PS2.

This is a damn good game. the graphics are incredible, the beastie mashing is brilliantly fun with disgustingly gory sound efects, and is worth playing again and again, although to be honest, it is a little short(it took me about 9 hours to complete it first time). its not pant-browningly scary like resident evil or silent hill but it does offer the odd tense moment and it keeps you on your toes. One of the best things about the game alongside the lush graphics is the control system and the way your character moves, as it is all very natural and it means you always feel like your actually in control of what's going on, rather than struggling to simply face the enemy or something.

When I first heard that Mega Man X was going to get a new collection, but that this time it would include X7 and X8, I jumped for joy. Mostly for X8, mind you, because X7 is just the worst of the worst in the whole Mega Man X series. I just never finished it and hope to do so this time around. X 1 through 3 have their regular 16-bit graphics, AWESOME music, and you can alter the filters and screen sizes to your liking. I personally prefer it wide screen, but I am missing out on some sweet wallpapers that surround the edges of the screen if you should choose to play it at its original screen ratio. It looks pretty sweet with the filters too; makes you feel like your's playing the original game cartridges. For X3, however, the prior Mega Man X Collection (which was on the Gamecube/PS2 era, had the Saturn version of X3, which included a sweet intro video and new music, although admittedly, most of the original music is better. There is a small downside, hardly noticeable for those who played the original MMX games on SNES, and is a small input lag. I am guessing Capcom wanted to keep the experience as close to the original as possible. From X4 through 6, that input lag is a thing of the past, the 32-bit graphics play beautifully on the screen, and with the new filters, you can choose to make the game look classic, or a little newer. For some reason I don't understand, the sound effects on this version of the collection are very crisp, something that sounded murky in the original PS and Saturn versions. I have only glanced at X7 and X8 for the time being, and do not expect much in terms of graphical improvement. X7 particularly. It's like that game was just ported there for nostalgia reasons, maybe, but it is clear that even Capcom want nothing more to do with that game. X8, on the other hand, has more detailed textures and brighter colors. Other than that, it feels like the same game. Finally, one of my biggest griefs with this game collection is that, once again, Capcom decided to split the physical version into half physical, half digital. Switch cartridges aren't that small, to my knowledge, and the GBs the collection takes doesn't even add to 16 GBs, so I wonder why do they choose to split games like this. That aside, I recommend this game to anyone looking for fast-paced action and a good challenge. ... Oh, and before I forget, although I have not used Rookie Hunter mode for any of the games, it is clear this option will allow for newcomers to enjoy their Mega Man X experience without the frustrations of constant failures.

Mega Man X Legacy Collection 2 is only avaliable to U.S and Canadian residents
