Solid
Challenging platforming action
Bamboo Pandamonium
Same overlay and museum options as Volume 1
X5 & X8
Most of the games hold up quite well
Museum
Rookie and Challenge modes
Faithful ports of the original games for the most part
Contains multiple platforming classics
Museum is a very comprehensive archive
X Challenge is a clever and demanding extra
Hunter Medals reward expert-level play
Lots of artwork
Merch
And music to go through
MMX13
Nice display
Version
And difficulty toggles
X Challenge is a good time
All eight games playable in English Mega Man and Japanese Rock man versions
Rookie Hunter mode makes the more challenging levels a breeze
Gallery mode filled with series music
Concept art and Japanexclusive model toys
Rewind mode is smooth and fun to use
Museum contains plenty of artwork for each game and every soundtrack
All 10 of the games run as if they were running on their original hardware
Arguably the best half of the saga
Great
Faithful collection of titles
Slick presentation with a built-in achievement system to encourage completion
X Challenge is fun and challenging
The editors didn't like
Mega Man X7 is pretty bad
Uninteresting stories
X5 and X6 offer little in innovation
Mega Man X4's voice acting is laughably bad
Repetitve graphics and ideas
No love for Command Mission
Tornado Tonion
X6 & X7
Where is Megaman X
Command Mission?
A bit too pricey for what it is
X7 and X8 don't hold up well
MMX4
Was hoping to see at least one of the "extracurricular" X games
RIP Duff McWhalen
X Challenge stages largely similar between each collection
Lag found in original games still largely present
Rookie Hunter trivializes the challenge
So use it sparingly
Physical version of the game only includes 1 and a download code for 2 and is more expensive
The challenges for Legacy Collection 2 pale in comparison to the first
Only one save per SNES title
X Challenge is only slightly different from the Legacy Collection 2 version

Only one save per SNES title, X Challenge is only slightly different from the Legacy Collection 2 version, Button mapping doesn't save across titles
Mega Man X Legacy Collection 1 isn't just a collection of faithful ports on new hardware, it's a mix of some of the best Mega Man games with plenty of love and goodies. The addition of medals is a great way to encourage players to fully explore every titl...

Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 and 2 contain a great set of games. The Switch version is the definitive version of the first Legacy Collection with Legacy Collection 2 following along in its shadow. Rewind is a great feature, while armor mode is lacking any...

With its impeccable presentation, its focus on history, and its ability to remix its challenges to make decades-old games feel brand new, Mega Man X Legacy Collection 1 + 2 is a necessity for Mega Man fans...
Abstract: There are many storied game franchises that struggled to survive the late-90s shift from 2D to 3D as the dominant style, and from cartridges to disc, with series from Castelvania to Sonic the Hedgehog putting in some supremely dicey entries before finding...
Abstract: Packing four incredible action games from the mid-'90s into one nostalgic package, Mega Man X Legacy Collection might not feature the entire X saga but it's certainly the best of it...
Abstract: The Mega Man X series is one of those rare instances where a company successfully applies a “Darker and Edgier” spin to its established franchise; while most attempts have ended in eternal ridicule from fans ( Sonic, Bomberman, Prince of Persia, Sonic...

Classic retro addictive platforming action with a HD makeover, Still feels great to play after all these years, Six games to enjoy in the first collection, with another four in the 2nd, Challenge remix mode is fun,
Mega Man X Legacy Collection 2 makes the best of the material it's given to work with. Regardless of each game's quality, steps have been taken to clean them up to allow fans the option to relieve both the moderate highs and the very low lows of this era...
