X Collections and Some Exe Games

Mega Man really has toned down the ridiculous amounts of fringe miscellaneous games and this year we only have two games I can't review and a collections game which I wouldn't really need to review. Let's get started.

Mega Man X Collections

Can you ask for a better deal than Mega Man X1 - X6? What? Mega Man X1 = X8? Hey, those games were still for sale at the time... hell you can still get them for like $10 for both of them and pick up collections for $15 or so I think and you're still paying way less than when these games came out. Considering how fantastic these games really are apart, getting them all together can only be that much better. In addition to this, you'll also get Mega Man Battle And Chase as a bonus... well it's the thought that counts really. If you don't already own all these games, pick this up. If you do own each individual game and they haven't shitted out on you by now, I wouldn't say all the bonus content of concept art and a few remixed songs are enough to buy them again, but the price is right.

Rockman.exe Battle Chip Stadium (Arcade)

Another exe arcade within a year? This thing links up with the Link PET toy and lets you insert battle chips you can buy into it. If you win some fights, it dispense more battle chips! It never came to the US, but it would be cool to get a nice collection of those chips as souvenirs. They were taken out of circulation this year, but if you go to Japan you might have a chance to play it still.

Rockman.exe Legend of the Network (Cell Phone)

Another pseudo Battle Network game for the phones and a bit of a sequel to Phantom of the Network. I suppose this is the actual last Battle Network game that ever came out until now, but once again it's Japanese only. The plot focuses around some dude named RaiderMan.exe and his operator unleashing a new virus on the public. I'm not sure when this game takes place in the time line if it does at all, but I don't think it takes place after 6. There isn't a lot of information on this game, not even on Mechanical Maniacs. Hopefully these games will one day be playable to a US audience.

And that's it for the miscellaneous games for 2006!
