Mega Man X Legacy Collection - Mega Man X5 - Final Sigma, Good Ending and Platinum No. 68
2Another Mega Man Legacy Collection, another platinum.
To tell you the truth, both Legacy Collections of Mega Man X can be summed up in two acts. Act 1, X1 to X4, being Mega Man X at its peak whereas Act 2, X5 to X8, being Mega Man X overstaying its welcome and ruining what good will Act 1 had to offer.
- Mega Man X5 was okay though the RNG was a bit annoying if you didn't know what you were doing.
- Mega Man X6 never should've happened and was a good example of terrible game design and unnecessary difficulty.
- Mega Man X7 was a blueprint of how to NOT design a 3D Mega Man game, especially when other games like Ratchet and Clank showed how to. Easily one of the worst Mega Man games ever made.
- Mega Man X8 showed vast improvements, but by then it was already too late for the franchise.
For this platinum, all I had to get was view all 3 of Mega Man X5's endings. Easy enough. I got Zero's ending first, followed by X's bad ending and all I needed was the good ending. Fun fact: X5 was supposed to be the end of the X series........until Capcom did X6 behind Infaune's back. Thanks a lot. But enough about that. Here's yet another platinum to my still growing list.
