My thumbs down is not representative of the quality of the original games, as they are in fact some of my favorite games of all time. This is a warning to all those that wish to relive these great games that this is one of the worst way to experience them. There's input lag aplenty, visua filter options are limited and none feel great, plus the game won't scale properly in 4:3 and 21:9 aspect ratios. Now normally, …

The only thing im genuinely sad about is not being born when this masterpiece originally dropped. Fast forward to now, playing it as an adult and the sheer badassery is unreal. Everything hits perfectly, the characters, the clean simple story, the atmosphere, the intensity but above all else, ZERO. Easily in my Top 10 characters of all time. From the moment he appeared in MMX, that peak character design, the …

All games in this collection are at least good (depending on your opinion on X3). I think the original Megaman X and X4 are the standout games and I would definitely recommend buying this collection just for those two games alone. If you are only going to buy one of the X collections then get this one as the games in legacy collection 2 are really underwhelming in comparison. In conclusion, games are good.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →ENG | First thing first - the games themselves are awesome, and the review covers the collection itself and it's problems Pros - everything here (X1 to X4) works and present fully, faithfully preserved and available on modern platforms Cons - "works" is the best definition here, because sometimes games just started to drop performance randomly for reasons unknown; the games themselves were preserved too faithfully - that means no saves on Sigma stages in X1 (haven't got to other SNES games,…

neutral · AI labelView post →Lazy collection which is basically just a bunch of emulated ROMs. X1-3 has some horrible input delay in this version that caused me to get multiple frustrating game overs at segments where precise platforming is needed. You used to be able to mod it to have the best experience with the relocalization hacks for X1-3 but Crapcom in its infinite wisdom decided to completely cull and cripple modding by making it impossible to modify the EXE. Some say they've managed to get an X4 undub mod working…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Preserving gaming history is important, and Megaman X really showed us how a beloved title could evolve from the 8-bit era. These games are great and I think everyone should experience the game design of MMX1 (there is a great youtube video about it). Unfortunately, this collection is dog-water and you are better off playing it via alternative means. I sat down with old friends, all excellent megaman classic/X players, and we were getting destroyed by the appalling input lag. I switched to an…

Even emulators have them. I started making this review when I was at the last boss, and turned off the game, just to realize that it send me back to sigma stage 1 and all that the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Another low effort collection of ROMs from Capcom. There's slowdown, audio issues, input lag, horrible texture filtering. It's missing basic features like rewind, auto-fire, save states etc. Literally just emulate them and you'll have a better experience.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Absolutely unplayable, game runs at 75% speed, I have tried every fix people have said works, how does a company release such a horribly unoptimized port of 25 year old games, ridiculous...I have a 3080ti/Ryzen 5 5600x/32GB DDR5....so ridiculous
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Do not Alt-Tab out of the game in fullscreen, re-tabbing will make it crash and you will lose the progress of your current session. Same goes for windowed fullscreen, which won't crash the game but won't let you tab back in. Want to change the ingame volume? Sorry pal, no audio options available. This whole thing is an absolut lazy port of 3 Super Nintendo (!)-games which causes about 30% GPU load on a 3070. The games themself totally rock but the collection is absolute garbage.

positive · AI labelView post →The Megaman X games are awesome. They are 100% worth playing. THIS COLLECTION IS NOT. The collection does not work at all. When you launch the game you just get a black screen that never goes to the main menu. There is no way to play the game and there is no fix. Capcom made a post saying they fixed the issue but THIS IS A LIE. They didn't fix anything at all. The game still doesn't launch and you still can't play it at all
