 Nearly flawless in every way July 30, 2005

Being a huge Megaman fan for the past 16 years, it's easy for me to appreciate everything that an awesome game like Megaman X has to offer. Megaman X was my first ever Megaman game. I still own it today and play it regularly. I've completed over 20 different Megaman games, and while I didn't think that any of them were bad at all, none of them can compare with this one.
As the first installment in the popular X series, MMX does a pretty damn good job at getting you hooked after the first 5 minutes of gameplay. Honestly, this is one of the greatest games of this gameplay style around. There are so many different features to this game that make it near perfect.
First off, the music is flat out awesome. The tunes rock hard and sometimes you will pause right in the middle of a level just to enjoy the outstanding music.
The gameplay is also perfect. X's running animation is VERY detailed for a 16-bit game. Overall, the gameplay is very easy for anyone to get used to, even if you've never played a game of this style before.
And of course, where would a great game like this one be without its breathtaking visuals. Seriously, the graphics in this game are top notch for an SNES title. The backgrounds are extremely detailed, and the enemy sprites are very colorful as well.
Basically, if you're considering getting this game, don't wait. Get it now! Don't wait another 4-5 months for X Collection, you must play this game now! You will be addicted to it, and the difficulty level is appropriate enough for anyone to enjoy the game. If you don't at least try it, you're dead inside.

I've enjoyed this game since I was at a younger age. This game is not intended for punks,amateurs,and stubborn players. This game is good for hardcore players who whant a challenging game. Overall this is a great game to start out whith the franchise.

Overall this is a great game to start out with the franchise.And the music is great and the story is not bad. The final boss's music is good.
Capcom started the series out with a boom August 15, 2004
I've had this game since 1994 and this is probably one of the best Megaman games I have ever played. I have beat it about 7 times, each time having fun and enjoying the game.
Story 4/5
The plot of the game is very interesting and pretty exciting. There isn't much talking in this game though, but it's still easy to understand the plot.
Graphics 4/5
For 1993 these graphics are pretty good. This is the only Megaman X game for the SNES that didn't have a special chip installed in it. The backgrounds and artwork are really nice for Chill Penguin and Storm Eagle's level.
Music/Sound 5/5
I loved the music in this game. It really went good with the environment of the levels. It seems some of the levels have this dramatic coming from them. The sound was great too, like in Spark Mandrill's stage, you could hear the sound of the thunderbolts very good when it struck during the fight with the mini boss.
Gameplay/Control 5/5
The gameplay is really fun in this game. Most people who have played other Megaman games before should get an idea how this game is and will recognize how to use the weapons and trying to get the sub tanks and the heart tanks and the capsules and everything. Alot of people have trouble making long jumps, if you are having trouble, all you need is to press >+Dash+Jump.
Difficulty 3/5
This one can be hard at times. Alot of the bosses are easy, then again if you don't have the right weapons you can be in for a challenge. Another thing that affects the gameplay is the Sub Tanks and the Heart Tanks. They can be a big help for bosses, especially the final boss, whom is really hard.
Overall 5/5
I loved this game, and the values are great. It doesn't cost much here on amazon, or at least not as much as Megaman X2 and X3. I recommend this game if you want to purchase it, I suggest you do this, because SNES game are already out of business, and as the years pass by, these will be harder and harder to find.
 The start of something great July 17, 2004

Megaman X was Capcom's megaman spinoff and the first MM game on the SNES(some would say the first game for SNES was MM7, but that was released in the same year MMX2). Anyways, for one of the earlier SNES games, MMX has great graphics, great gameplay and great music. The stages are designed with great skill, as there are pits and spikes everywhere, with plenty of walls to climb. The music in the game is really good, too, not necessarily being top notch, but being good enough that you can remember most of it. With the start of a new series, there are new features. In this game, you start with the ability to climb walls. Then you have to hunt down the hearts(to expand your health bar), the capsules(to upgrade your armor), and the sub-tanks(like the energy cans from the originals, except these are permanent and you fill them up yourself with excess health).
An interesting feature in this game that was (unfortunately) not featured in any others is that you can affect other bosses' stages by defeating a certain boss. For example, you kill Chill Penguin, and the lava in Flame Mammoth's stage freezes. Stuff like that...it's really neat-o.The only thing that this game is lacking is plot. Sure, if you sit through the annoying sequence in the beginning with the type writer and the alarm noise, you see that X is a new kind of robot that can think and act for himself and that if he was to make a wrong decision the effects could be disastrous. You would also see that a man named Dr. Cain discovered X in a capsule 100 years after he was made. But after that, there wasn't much to the plot, except "Let's go find Sigma!" and "I'll take him, X!" and then "Crap, I'm dead!" and finally, "You've killed me, X, but we'll meet again!" The plot is the only minus in this game. Had this game had a better developed storyline, it would've gotten the full five stars. However, it's still a great game, and I would recommend it to anyone who was new to the series and interested in which game they should play first, and it's not expensive, so anyone can easily buy it without getting a hole in their wallet.
