[RePlay] MegaMan X - Playthrough #1 on Mega-Monday

~Mega Man, super fighting Robot, super fighting robot...~
I have a buzzing in my ear, it's the German Mega Man Anime intro, compare them both yourself ;)

As you can guess, it's time for Mega Man - time for a Mega Man X [RePlay]

Mega Man X was created by CAPCOM and released in 1993 in Japan and 1994 in NA/EU for SNES and later rereleased for PSP as Mega Man Maverick Hunter X, it's also available via the Nintendo e-Shop. In Japan the series is called Rockman.

The Mega Man series, especially the older ones are known for their difficulty.

I won't spoil about the plot, because most of it is explained in the story, especially in the intro.

Only 1 thing, Mavericks are robots that once were good but turned evil.

The game is a jump and shoot, typical for the Mega Man series you enter several stages with a certain theme, this normally represents the boss of that area - e.g. there's a penguin in a winter stage...

When you defeat the boss you get access to its "elemental" power and this so called sub-weapon is effective vs. another boss.

Through the whole game you "collect" these sub-weapons and also other goodies like health tanks, which can be used to restore your health, hearts that increase your maximum health and armor upgrades (e.g. enables a dash or decreased the damage you take)

That's all for the explaination now, enjoy the pictures and the first episode of [RePlay] Mega Man X on Mega-Monday.

That's all folks!!!
