Rockman X4

The Rockman franchise is one of the best franchises of platform-games, with numerous sequels, the blue boy has enjoyed a unique success and especially he has gained his own fandom. It is hard to believe that some kids play this game, that may happen but Rockman X4 is a gift for the loyal fans. At the time Rockman X4 was released Capcom was trying to adapt the Rockman world to 3D environments, but still they developed this sequel in a classic Rockman style with some visual improvements.

The game itself is moderately difficult, increases its difficulty after the first initial levels. These first levels offer the usual side-scrolling 2D world. Some ability with the buttons and patience will be necessary, because there will be some failures on the way while the right way of face all the Robots-bosses is found. Unless you are cheater and find a walk-trough via-Internet. X and Zero have some interesting new powers, and as usual they will gain another weapons while they beat the different mavericks.

Capcom made a big effort with X4, it has a nice storyline with amazing anime interludes, the storyline differs if the player chooses X or his buddy Zero, die-hard fans will try to beat the game with both characters. In a few words: A good and addictive game.
