Armin Mustafovski gave it a5:
Megaman X6 stinks. The japanese voice overs stink (or rather, are annoying), and the game should have been dubbed for the english audience. The story is awful. The game is ridiculously hard;even so with hax for the love of god. Megaman X stinks with the Z-saber, which, thankfully, makes sense. Zero comes back, even though he's my favourite character, he should have stayed dead. The only thing that keeps me from giving this game a totallly failing mark is the fact that I have had some amazing childhood memories with previous Megaman games.

Man o man. Ever since X4 it just hasn't felt like megaman x. X4 was the last good one, and 5 was a little worse, but X6 is a disgusting pile of flaws. Picking megaman or zero before every level? Then you get to a point to where the other one is the only one that could pass? The weapons suck, the story is crazy, and high max is a flaw itself. This game got near impossible [you only pass some flaws by another flaw in your favor] and full of flaws. I don't know what they were thinking, and just when you think the story is going to change, it just becomes the same again and again and again.

Gull? Whats this zero's in here good he diden't die, O wait my mistake he does die in the end (or should I got killed off) this game is like X meets soup opras! and when zero dies because of his weakend and shamful saber(which can fortunitly be fixed with a power up) he sounds really, realy, really bad another thing can't capcom stick with one voice for zero instead of changing it all the time! I'm Canadian, eh and I can't possibly understand chinese or whatever it was that they were saying!. The power ups were better than x5's but the levels sure weren't! X's amour sucked more than X5's too. Unless you like megaman (Z fans don't play or you'll pay) Any way don't play (30 bucks for this, they should pay us and for anyone that already got this call the cops you were robbed!)

Zero Wrath gave it a 6:
Better then Mega Man X5?... Um... Nah. Better then Mega Man X4? Not at all! The very few problems with the series is... How come X is able to beat Zero? [Like in MMX2 ] in all reality if Zero is as powerful as the Mega Man X storyline makes it look like it is, Zero could slash X in half like a hot knife through butter. Number two [and this got better with MMX6] is that all the words of each level and conversation should have people say the things in english [or japanese, their choice] as there would be an option to do so. Also, it would be nice if MMX would have to battle Mega Man. As far as the levels go, I do not want them changed at all. [Off the subject, I have a fan fic about Mega Man X story line on www.ezboard.com] with the board called bzeroswrath you are free to read if you would like. I like the levels because of the difficulty. Besides that, give the player something to enhance replayability. Beat the game with Zero unlock X beat with X get Mega Man and so on. The story line would be as follows [Capcom, are you reading this?] X is captured by Dr. Wily while he got a message by Dr. Wily that Mega Man is revived and held captive by Dr. Wily, and Zero must destroy his own creator to save him. And as X, you try again to destroy Sigma, who now has captured Mega Man and that unlocks him and as him you find out that Zero's girlfriend, Iris is captured by Dr.Cain and and once you unlock her you get the rest of the flower battalion, Orchid, Rose... Read my fanfic. Also there should be a battle game for everyone you unlock. Sounds like fun, huh. I expect such a game for the PS2. Remember you heard it here first... By the way, if they let Zero have a son, his name is Kai and he looks like Zero but with a Silver body armor with black [or gold or whatever looks cool] hair. He has a staff and sword instead of a gun. I expect him [or someone like him if Capcom allows it] soon. I said my piece.
