Thanks so much, man! Very nice comment read! I put a lot of effort and time into the video. :)

It's not an in depth analysis. It's an in depth assanation towards the game devs

@@RetropolisZone If you think X7's boss rush is shitty than try Zero 1's boss rush that one is much much worse

The less is said about Maverick names in X7 the better.

I see what you did here.

Fun fact: The man who voices Tornado Tonion, Jack Merluzzi, also voices Zero in this game. Even more fun fact: He's since went on to voice Master Albert in Megaman ZX Advent and Magnet Bomber in Super Bomberman R.

Didn't know that!

Peter Von Gomm also voices Grey in Megaman ZX Advent.

Damn this game only has like 3 actors

Fun Fact: Axl sounds like an eargrating Ash from the Pokemon anime

Axl: the sultan of salt.

@2d fighter fan That's why he needed a proper voice actor like in the command mission and X8 games I know axl was put in to be a new playable characters who wasn't executed well but I enjoy his interaction with zero and X it's not major but that's only cause we haven't seen enough of him like Silver from sonic 06

@2d fighter fan Yeah that's why people want them to come up with a sequal Wich they are so you know but it's going to be in development for a long while I'm sure to surpass megaman 11 I hope axl was supposed to find the secret to his creation and who created him and that's more talked about in command mission but with him suffering an attack in x8 who knows what his fate is

I don't even care for her as a ring announcer tbh, she's obnoxious (she was the ring announcer in PRIDE, which you can experience in UFC Undisputed 3)

Shaolin Turtle he really evolved

+Nextwhowantstodie step forward Absolutely, through maybe he was just given awful voice direction for X, Capcom is no stranger to that.

It is the best tho

X8 is the much needed air-refreshener after the truckload of elephant feces that was the lazy or/and asshole level designs of X6 and the shitty 2D-to-3D transition and god-awful voice acting of X7!

@@templariox32 no......

​​@@Darkkfated Sonic is also voiced by Chris Redfield (Roger Craig Smith), but that voice only fits Sonic characters like Knuckles and Shadow

Her best voice is in X8 though

Nice

when are you gonna make a video on the modern/adventure era games

Cybershell X7 is the original '06

I didn’t know you watch him too

Thanks man! That's cool to read, haha. I was initially very worried people would be very off-put by the long run time.

Retropolis Zone Well the series is called Quickies Dont Cut It.

and imagine if X7 was dubbed in Toronto like Mega Man Legends and Resident Evil 2 were.

Zero would most likely be similar to Vergil lol.

Dude I still want this game honestly

Dang. I thought about how to rewrite the story to make more sense, but this is honestly better than fixing up the actual story.

I prefer your head cannon better than the original story, tbh!

Yep. I don't care what Capcom says, this is now my canon X7 story.

Rone Herushin yeah

cjszero01 hey i see you cj !

oh nice you're still alive. hey.

Solo Alencon same here, i am curious

Fleaker he sounds so bad here

See, I had this sneaking suspicion Alucard and Signas in X7 were done by the same guy, but never looked it up, lol.

MarxForever uhm... read the lore Model A in Zx Advent is actually [*SPOILERS*] Created by that game's villan the similarity is just coincidence

MarxForever i love x8 as well by making axl diffrent from x but i hate the usage of retry chips and the level design

alex_9000 I meant the concept of Axl's transformation ability, and how it functions more than it actually being him, per se. I also have a hard time believing Model A wasn't inspired by Axl. It literally looks like him, it acts like him, has the same Weapons and abilities. When something like that comes out of the same studio, that's no coincidence. Remember everything after X5 had to be reconned since ZX is a continuation of MM Zero, which takes place after X5, but followed much different events than X6. So Model A isn't Axl from X7, because that Axl can no longer exist, but I'm pretty certain he is that timeline's Axl, it's just a new (and much more interesting) origin for him.

satria nugraha Oh yeah, X8 is by no means perfect. Not a fan of the Ride Chaser levels myself, or the game's aesthetics and pacing. But it's head and shoulders above 7.

MarxForever yes in the STORY its coincidence but from GAMEPLAY yeah its the same

Didn't expect YOU to be here and cyber shell. ...yeah...

last i check, the 2d parts are actually some of the most praised in those games. seriously, almost every review of generations talk about how much better the 2d segments are. and everytime you get a 2d gameplay in the 3d mario games, people love it alot. so im also very confused by who exactly are these people who live in such a bizzarre alternate dimension?

Games in the sixth generation didn't constantly use 2D sections, and many simply want games like that.

I don't know. Personally I don't have a problem, but variety doesn't necessarily mean drastically changing the perspective and how you play the game. 2D and 3D is as opposite as you can get and a few some people really enjoy one over the other. I can see why it can irk people

Diego Ramirez true, I want to play that game so much

X8 is better than those for me too.

X8 was imho one of the best games of the X series, but unfortunately it didn't sell too well (I think thanks in part to X6 and X7 being such low-points in the franchise) which encouraged Capcom to turn their backs on the X series.

The thing I've gathered about X8 over the past year or so is that it's an uphill moment from X6 and X8, but still not up to par with stuff like X1, X2 and X4. Guess I'll find out when I get to it though. :)

That's a fair assessment of it, though I'd argue it's better than X2 and I personally liked it practically as much as X4, ignoring the Gigavolt Manowar & Avalanche Yeti stages which were the low-points of the game. You'll see exactly what I mean when you play through them. Oh, and the placement of the instant-death spikes coupled with the checkpoint placement in some areas like Burn Rooster's stage. Looking forward to that video, this one's top-notch!

I have been considering Jak and Daxter and Ratchet & Clank. Thing is: so many games, such little time. Plus each of these videos takes very long to make now. But I do hope I can do Jak or Ratchet sometime next year, even if only one of the games. :) Also, glad you loved the video! And thanks for the great comment!

Very true, both games have quite a bit of length to them; specially the latter of the two. I think it would be a nice edition to the Quickies Don’t Cut It series though even if it were just one or possibly two of either franchise. I’m a-okay if one never gets produced. Hell, I might even take the idea and make one myself. Who knows?

Same. I also read that in Adachi's voice.

Michael Peele same

i did the same Emmanuel XD

School? Aren't you in prison, cabbage?

cops have a school, he must have been forced into it by dojima after he got out of the slammer lol

I'm 5 years late, but... SAME, this was my first game and I love it very much!

i completely disagree, its a nice feeling knowing you tried, but in games, you either sell a playable game, or you dont sell it at all. for all the faults x6 has, its also has its good points, x7 has no redeeming quality. you can actually have fun in x6, thats why in the x6 video you can find ALOT of people saying that its a guilty pleasure. in x6 boss weapons are usefull, and gameplay wise, its probably the best control of the series. yes its much more dificult, and even unfair, but diferent from x7, you can play it. trying to make a game, and failing is no excuse, its still a failure, of anything, x6 at least presents good aspects.

The only thing I found redeemable about X6 was the soundtrack. Regardless which one an individual considers worst is kind of a moot point since they're both awful.

X6 may be a clusterfuck of wonky level design, enemy placement, weird mechanics that aren't fully explained, somewhat frustrating difficulty *cough*NightmareMother*cough*, horrifying translation and weird story, but at least it looks really good, the OST is great and fits each level very well and despite all that shit previously mentioned, it's fun to play. X7 is the opposite, I like Axl, I like the idea of Red Alert, I like the idea of X just saying "fuck it, I'm sick of fighting", despite hating the fact that you need to take out 4 Mavericks to unlock... uh... the titular character. But the game feels horrible to play for a myriad of reasons, it looks actually ugly, the english dub makes me sad (although the japanese dub is good), and giving X and Axl the same weapons was a dumb idea, especially since they were trying to give Axl the spotlight, which is understandable, and that's just some of it's problems. I will happily pick up X6 and replay that from time to time, but I don't feel like touching X7 ever again. Axl and Code Crush were the best things to come out of that, thank fuck for X8.

@Overbite To be fair, neither were Mario 64 or Sonic Adventure, and it seemed to work out for them.

@@damienthonk1506 well, this is their first 3d game, cant do your best on the first try.

Thanks, man! I hope not to take too long with the next video, but it won't be X8, though.

That is fine with me. I am really interested now. Whatever it may be, I am sure it will be a great episode!

Sonic CD.

You don't need special weapons but some are required or bosses become next to impossible (Red, Sigma, etc.) and with the special weapons they become a joke. And you need to do mandatory things just to unlock X or he sucks. It's worse because of the fact that you can't just glitch your way through stuff (like using Zero infinite i frames through Gate's lab) and you HAVE to deal with all of the problems stated in this video without the ability to cheese them. Image going through Gate's lab without any armor. That's basically X7. Oh and it has the worse Sigma second form in the whole series. Bottomless pit, punches do stun so you die instantly, no weakness, etc. You will die a lot because of game mechanics. It's basically a worse version of Gate's battle. Plus you can't turn off voices or Alia's OR skip anything. And if you are doing legacy collection you have to basically listen to ALL of Alia's tutorials. I hate both games but I hate X7 more because of the whole "Herp Derp you can't rotate the camera so you die from stupid things and you can't skip ANYTHING and have to listen to voices. Every time you die."

If you think X6 was trying to do the exact same thing as before, you were playing something else

X6 is better than X7 because it it built on a gameplay formula which is inherently great and satisfying. X7 is fundamentally broken.

X6 wouldnt have failed if the project was given more time. If you seen the thought process they had with making X7, you would understand that it was doomed to fail from the very start. Even then I can enjoy X6 way more than X7.

Ok it’s more complicated than that. Is the head of a snake better than the tail of a dragon? X6 is the worst of something that is still good. X7 is the best of something that is …trash?

Nah. Even while failing X6 is still more fun and faster than X7. X7 is a slower, worse overall game that has ZERO fun factor. Sure, it might not have as many and as bad lows as X6, but it doesn't come CLOSE to the highs of that game.

Francisco Almeida I recommend the Reviews of X6 and 7 by J's Reviews

My sentiments exactly. X6 was horrible in a lot of ways, sure, but X7 is just a broken mess through and through. There are hardly any redeemable qualities about it whatsoever. At least with X6, it gave us better Z-saber animation for Zero, some decent armors for X and even a pretty challenging final boss if you play it as Blade Armor X. X7 on the other hand just gave X one armor. ONE, and it's not even that good. It's decent I guess, but nothing special like the ultimate armor from X4-X6. And like the review said, they butchered Zero as a playable character, something you don't do in a X game considering how iconic he is. It's for stuff like this why I'll never touch X7, in-spite of the fact I love the series. It's the black sheep of the franchise as far as I'm concerned.

That's exactly why. X6 took the already well-realised foundation and ruined it, whereas X7 can be seen as a new experiment gone horribly wrong. It's basically a 'pick your poision' kind of a deal, and I honestly think the former is worse in that department.

Pete the diference being, x6 can actually be fun to play, boss weapons are some of the best in the series, and both the upgrade systems as well as x armors are among the best. x7 on the other hand, is not, its slow, boring, and has almost no redeeming quality. its less a pick your poison, and more of a, x6 is flawled, and bad by comparisson with the other entries, x7 is just bad.

Truth be told, I personally thought X6's weapons actually sucked (barring Commander Yammark's)

or, if the heart system was better AND Axl was better developed. why not give him the ability to turn into the bosses? that would be a much better, and make alot more sense in the story. since thats the whole gimmick about him.

Thanks man! This was one helluva video to make, and I'm glad you enjoyed watching it despite the length! I look forward to more content from myself, as well, hehe. :)

I understand that Jak & Daxter's optimization was of insane levels, but the fact Mega Man X7's graphics aren't nearly as complex and the worlds aren't nearly as expansive, X7 by comparison does feel a bit sloppy. Maybe it was a harsh comparison, but for 2003, X7 just feels like it isn't using the PS2 hardware that well. It doesn't even use any anti-aliasing, which Ratchet & Clank and Jak and Daxter do.

Retropolis Zone You betray yourself. The start of the video comes off as if x7 was better than x6. You rant about the flaws for 5/10 minutes then bring up the high points as mediocre or decent. Just biased but you are better than J's Reviews. I myself can provide more great things of x7 than anyone else could about x1.The length of the video and your tone definitely drips with cynicism. Jesus !! Some people forgive it because it was the first 3D X game.A 3D Game that wasnt named legends. It wasn't Duke Nukem Forever or Final Fantasy which took 10+ years to evoke gigantic hype and spectacular hopes and reviews.Slowdowns happens because it was rushed and wasn't optimized .Same case for dropped features, x1 glitches,x6 being so punishing,x8 having not so stellar graphics Most people fail to see it as a decent game .Xover is a abomination. Same categorization puts DOS megamans,mm6,sf2,x6,bn4/5. X3 and X7 have great features nobody cares about.Just the utter of x1 better than x3 demolishes any ray of credit to these games I countered some of your whinings above but you value some other crap and not me cause I said why your criticism is excessively harsh and are erroneous on many levels. Music and Graphics only.I'm sure its definitely better than x6 albeit being not so awesome X6 has no excuses aside from having improvements to X5.This game brought new ride Armors .X5/X6 didn't do it.X8 did it.Crab Ride Armor was entirely unique and functions on the same level as others .Such and Such. I can definitely be a competent guy to prove you wrong. Take a try if you didn't give up already and are courageous. Dare you

How do I betray myself? I never even said X7 is better than X6 anywhere in the video, lol. Neither did I imply that in any way. I rant about the flaws because they really are quite bad for a 2003 game. Super Mario 64, Ocarina of Time, Jak and Daxter, Ratchet & Clank, Mega Man Legends - they're all games that did the 3D transition, optimization of coding and/or shooting mechanics more competently than X7, and years BEFORE X7. And about the positives I did mention, what I am supposed to do? Not mention them at all? Just because I think the game's high points it has still just aren't remarkable in grand scheme of things, should I refuse to bring attention to them at all? Thus causing you to call me out for not mentioning any good aspects whatsoever?. Some of the levels are OK, but not more than just OK. Some other levels are just plain bad. Compared to the level design of previous X titles I don't think it's good overall at all. I ignored your comments because I know this discussion isn't going anywhere, especially when you start resorting to things like ''whinings'', ''I dare you'' and ''prove you wrong'', just because I have legitimate criticisms of a game that I think is immensely flawed. It makes it feel like a personal attack rather than a disagreement and when you do that you've lost me. I'm not gonna pretend I'm bias free, because nobody is, but I love Mega Man X and was very much going into this review trying to come out with some positives, only to realize there really weren't all that many. I really tried to not be as negative as anybody else, but couldn't. For example, why should I care about the game bringing new ride armor designs if the underlying gameplay and mechanics with them are just so shallow and uninteresting? If you enjoy them that's fine, but their visuals designs means nothing to me. Even then, I flat-out stated in the video that I didn't care one bit about the Ride Armors and Chasers in the previous X titles, either. Plus, I said the spiderbot was cool and fun to use, but also said the game just throws you into room of enemies with no sense of depth and strategy to the combat, therefore making me not caring about the damn thing in the end. Me ignoring you has nothing to do with giving up or that you ''countered my whinings'' and that I didn't know what to say back; it has to do with the fact that I don't agree with your previous comment and still don't with the comment you just wrote, that my free time is already limited as is and that I feel this discussion isn't gonna bring us anywhere. Maybe if you worded your comments differently I would have taken the time to respond, instead of resorting to calling me and J biased just because we don't agree with your opinion on this game.

Nah, man. You are completely misunderstanding my intentions with the review. I am not afraid of not being honest, because I know I was being honest with what I thought. I've put far too much work and sleepless nights into this video to know it wasn't meant to be biased or hating for the sake of hating. If I were so biased as you say, why in the world would I ever make an absolute last-minute decision to scrap the part about Axl's weapons where I incorrectly labeled them as shit, and then make fun of myself for doing so? At the last minute of making this video I gave X7 credit for its weapons being pretty fun and useful, when I could have easily not given a damn and leave it in unfair that way. Have a nice day, dude who knows everything better than me and who knows my true intentions better than I do. I'm sure this attitude you're displaying gets people to like talking to you.

Retropolis Zone No dude you're just like every reviewer who can't stop crying and whining. Oh my attitude .I didn't get to see in-depth flaws of x1/x4 .Most people think them to be almost non existent.

Take me sideways, daddy.

Yeah, I've been following the progress. The changes he's making are looking good and were much needed, lol. Still not sure how good you can actually make 3D Blast--I feel even in the end it's just gonna be kinda mediocre to me--but it's at least to cool to see Jon Burton still being passionate about projects from over 20 years ago. That's far more meaningful in my eyes than how the Director's Cut turns out.

That's actually really interesting. If it is indeed the same team as RE1, that could explain the fixed camera perspectives, indeed. Thanks for the info. :D

Heh, you should also have a look at the E3 2003 trailer for X7! There were a few cut bits and pieces, including what I think might've been an entire section of Anteator's stage with it's own unique gimmick! It only makes me wonder just how much of X7's development time ended up wasted by the time the game went gold. EDIT: I say that and then I find a trailer that has footage even older than the E3 2003 demo. An earlier version in which Zero doesn't attack at all (or have his saber out!) and which Axl doesn't seem to exist, either. It also features a completely different looking version of the intro stage, which seems to be the only stage in that build...

Maybe... I mean, the fixed camera in RE was, in part, a means to circumvent console limitations. Old habits, I guess.

It's not at all surprising if you look at Capcom's game development history, even around the time X7 was released. Onimusha, for instance, was all 3D and still used RE-style fixed camera angles in gameplay.

Yeah. Even before that, Dino Crisis 1 was full 3D but used fixed angles.

You are wrong nightmare mother s soundtrack is worse than this

Haha, oops! Sorry that you had to find workarounds to watch my videos, man! But I'm very flattered you went ahead and did it anyway and found it worth the time, too! Thanks. :)

I'd just like to point out that I've seen far longer reviews for singular games. As far as single videos go, I think the longest game review I've seen was Twin Perfect's Silent Hill: Downpour review, which was about 2 hours. And there's a lot of wrong going on with the game and events surrounding it that justify that length for an indepth video.

Yeah I'm hearing about this, haha. You would honestly expect him to be some kind of nobody in the voice acting business. Also, I'm glad you enjoyed the review!
