Mega Man X4's got extremely annoying at times. I like them tons more than Mega Man X4's. If I were making this series, I'd put those sounds in Mega Man X4, 5, and 6. The sounds you make when you shoot, then sounds when you jump, when you die, all of it, are just perfect. Sound: 10 Let me start with the sound effects of this game. Why fix what isn't broken, am I right? For having smooth animations and satisfactory graphics, this game gets an 8. The animation is as smooth as any Mega Man or Mega Man X game. They're slightly better than Mega Man X4's. The graphics of this game were pretty good for its time, and I wouldn't change them.

But it's not something to get worked up about. Some of the graphics are so complicated that they might make you sick, just a warning. You cannot kill it without a special type of weapon. The colorful, unique environments are fun, plus, they added a new feature to each level, the Sigma Virus, it's a small purple ghost-like enemy that will chase you. Graphics: 8 The graphics of this game aren't the best for the playstation, but they are good nonetheless. For being a good game, despite its story, Mega Man X5 gets a 9.4. It added some new features from Mega Man X4 that I'll get to later. Despite its obvious storyline in some instances, the gameplay and most definitely the music made up for it. As for Mega Man X5, it's my favorite game in the series.

And because of the game being newer, and the fact that better stories were starting to develope, this series has no excuses for its repetitive story. Mega Man X, on the other hand, had little effort towards the story.

The classic series made up for its repetitiveness for being so classic, and so casual, and just a fun series. The Mega Man X series, not counting the first one, is the scapegoat of the Mega Man franchise. 9.4/10 Mega Man X5 Overall: 9.4 Let's be realistic.
