Thanks, I thought I was killing the thread turning it into my diary or something.
I was watching some LP of X6 the other day and a lot of the glaring issues came back to me. The whole Nightmare system, Japanese voices (admittedly I prefer that in JRPG's and all with actual cutscenes, but it was just awkward and lazy here), hilarious level design like there was a part where the guy couldn't see where to jump down too, so he jumped and landed on spikes, rescuing those stupid Reploids, and the randomness of the stages and effects like weather, etc. Haha, all that said I still don't remember X6 being that hard to me at all, but I guess I do kind of have those games by the balls... lol, maybe it just didn't bother me. If that was the game with the weird crystal/cyberspace like final stages though, then yeah I remember that stuff was tough.
But yeah, even though I definitely like to pretend the story ends with X5 (like Inafune wanted it too), if I go on an X marathon here I'll probably run through X6 again as well. It's like the MM7 of the X series to me, very flawed but not a "terrible" game or anything.
I probably wouldn't bother with X7 since I don't own it or want it, or X8 again since I didn't like it that much at all.

, X6 isn't amazing but compared to these, yeeaaaah...
I wish I owned or had the money for Legends 2 and Tron Bonne, lol. I need to get those someday.
@CFFJR: Yeah, I'm still a tiny bit interested in the Battle Network series... but also not, since that's just the last thing I think of when I think "Megaman", haha. I'll probably play one someday though.
