Mega Man X5 is Not a Bad Game | RETROspective
154Mega Man X5 was originally planned to be the final game in the Mega Man X series, though that ultimately didn't pan out. But it's also a game that some love, some hate, and that many seem to feel indifferent towards, despite Mega Man X5 trying to do many things to set it apart from other parts of the X series. So, today on RETROspective, Jamie dives in deep with this game she first played as a kid and goes into why, despite its flaws, it is NOT a bad game!
Check out the Mega Man X5 Improvement patch here, as it is discussed extensively in this video:
