Mega Man X2 is better than X1?!?!?! 

The Zero scenes really put this game over the top. This is where Zero's brutal fighting style with Z-saber was introduced, as well as his connection to Wily and battles with X. Please Capcom bring this series back, in either MM11 style or retro 16 bit.

19:05 if you're interested in the lore, I suggest you to look up what serges says in the japanese script before his death. It will make much more sense, super cool stuff 👌

This was my first game of the entire MM franchise.

You don't have to fight Zero before Sigma if you collect all his parts after defeating the three X-Hunters. While if you wanted a quicker playthrough, fighting Zero once is faster than seeking out three different X-Hunters beforehand. Though if going for a more complete playthrough, collecting the parts does have a certain satisfying moment when Sigma tries to use a false dark armored Zero to trick X, only to have the real Zero destroy it in short order and make Sigma sound genuinely intimidated. Zero does have a great default expression too, either way he looks pissed. This sequence also hints towards a major point in the overall plot of the X-series, as Sigma tells Zero that he was destined to follow him. Sigma also later hints that Zero was "The last of The Doctor's creations", being strangely vague about Zero's hidden origins. Spoiler alert: "The Doctor" wasn't Dr. Who.

Isn't it amazing how the entire MegaMan series they rarely rarely rarely ever require you to use a specific weapon to accomplish something. For example in Metroid or Zelda they did it all the time I can only think of maybe two instances in the entire series The trap room in MegaMan two, I think you need to use the bubble gun in MegaMan two to beat the game.

MMX2 is the best of the series. X, X2 and x4 are just untouchable

I don’t think I’ve ever fought Zero in this game. I always get the parts. 😅

There are 2 ways to the endings of Mega Man 👨 X 2 . I played the game in 2 ways . (1.) Normal Version: If X fight the, X-Hunters and defeated them X will receive all 3 of Zero 's parts . The 1st cut scene when Dr. Cain starts working on the reactivation of Zero but he need more time ⌚. The 2nd states that Dr. Cain had located the X-Hunters base which is at the North Pole .He told X he needs more time ⌚ to reactivate Zero .SLOW THEM DOWN 👇 MEGA MAN 👨 X ! After X eliminated the X-Hunters and their Mavericks X confronted Sigma with a Dark Replica of Zero to taught him until the real Zero show and destroyed the fake Zero telling him there's only one Zero .After X destroyed Sigma the end came up 👆 you'll see Zero (Red) dashing across the screen shooting his buster shots and blade slash. (2.) Alternate Version: If X skips the fight of the X-Hunters they 'll move around the world map until they ' re gone. Meaning not to get Zero 's parts back from them. When the music 🎶 changed Dr.Cain apologies to X that the X-Hunters attacked the Hunter Base & took the control chip . Dr.Cain told X . THEY'RE GOING TO BUILD ZERO AT THEIR BASE WE CAN'T ALLOW THEM TO TEMPER WITH HIM. After X confronted Sigma you'll Zero by Sigma 's side so X has no choice but to fight Zero until he snapped out of it .When the fight ended Zero came to his senses and apologies to what he done in the fight. X also apologies apologies to Zero for not putting him back together. After X destroyed Sigma you 'll see Zero (Black) did the same thing the red Zero did dashing across the screen shooting 2 buster shots and a blade slash.

When I was trying it on an emulator, I wasn't so excited for X2 than X1, because the kinda start of cutscenes, which felt to me a bit too much, but maybe I should give this a shot😃

The wire frame graphics weren’t seen as cool in the 90s. Most publications seemed to say they were kind of lame.

Subscribed, even though I feel X is the best but it’s always cool to see someone play these for the first time. Sigh wait till you reach X6

I also enjoyed playing Mega Man 👨 X 2 too . The Mavericks are jokes but I still enjoy playing the game. By the way Zero is weak against Speed Burner when I fought in the Alternate Version .

This was the first game that i had on my SNES , and i loved it so much.

I've played this game so many times that I can do the spike puzzle to get the Shoryuken on my first try, every single time.

I was mainlyt brought up with Mega Man (the original), 2, 3 and 5. My best friend at the time got Mega Man X at some point. Since I never had or was that good at the SNES. Mega Man X didn't at the time have such a strong impact on me. Later on.. I have to admit the high level of Mega Man X. Perhaps the best Mega Man game ever? This video gave me some new thoughts about Mega Man X2. Definitely a strong game. Still prefer Mega Man X but you do have points that they took the series a interesting directions and that it has aspects that is better than Mega Man X. They actually did some thinking and didn't just put out the same game again (which they could have). Good video!

MMX2 is definitely an improvement over MMX1. I have only completed five of the Mega Man X games. My ranking of the X games are MMX4 > MMX2 > MMX1 > MMX3 > MMX5.

yes.... x2 is the best yes... x1 is amazing though, nothing wrong with being the 4th best game ever made

Kind of off-topic Do you dislike Prince of Persia 2009? Always thought it was a pretty cool game with some missed potential.

X2 is great! The boss battles are definitely one if main highpoints! Zero boss just too good! However I play this one the least out of the SNES X trilogy. There's just something about its pacing and I just dont like the X Hunters. They kinda mess with boss order amd upgrade collecting on repeat playthroughs.

GREAT REVIEW

1st mm game i ever played was mm3....

Remember me when your famous !

ME personally I play X2 a lot more then X1..

each sequel to X including DiVE is better than the last.

Hard NO

This is gonna run opposite to most of the comments, but X2 was really mid to me. The 6/8 tracks were boring and too short (those exceptions being Magna Centipede and Blizzard Buffalo), the stages were too short and a little uninspired, and the final boss was in my opinion, way too easy. The redeeming qualities of This entry were the final boss stages and all of the fights, but a lot of the game left me hanging.

Mega Man X2 is way better than any other X series and this is the ONLY reason why. The X-Buster Double-Shot! Enough said.... For many reasons it's one of the best X Arm Upgrades ever invented. If you cling to the wall and at the same time let go of the Charge Shot?! It Shoots the Double Shot way faster in one go and kills mavericks alot faster. Than shooting it on the ground which takes too much time to do so. Live and Learn 😅😮
