Why do some people hate/dislike the PSX-era Rockman X games more?

"I'm Believer" (JPN ending credits), "One More Time" (JPN opening theme), the ending music are probably favorite tracks from the CD-based versions of X3. I'll probably mess around the PC version of X3 if I get the chance to so I can see if it was dull as I remembered playing in the X Collection.

Can't argue at all. It's my favorite X ending of all. I love that bit of X and Zero just relaxing, watching the sunset. It's really nice.
Same here. It's probably one of the most peaceful endings scenes in X to be honest.

I thought they released X3 on the PC in the US?
I believe it did in October of '98 in the US from the info I gathered so far. It was also released in Korea for PC to in a compilation with X4 & X5, and if I remember correctly, X3 and X4 was in English in this compilation while X5 was in Korean, but I could be wrong.

Im one of the few people that prefer the PS1 X3 soundtrack.

I just like some tracks better there.

I actually like the easygoing feel of the PSX Intro Stage theme, even if it's a little out of place given the in-game events:

It's kinda like the Sonic CD English vs. Japanese soundtrack debates, I suppose. Except technically the compositions are shared (aside from the OP/END-style stuff and all for the CD versions) and merely rearranged differently from eachother, rather than near-completely different.

This makes me feel ready to kick ass. Seriously, it's so cool that X and Zero are falling at just the right moment of the intro tune, as the mechaniloid explodes to bits. It's sooo smooth. That whole sequence was very carefully constructed.

This, however, is just... :| Clearly they imagined people would be all over this intro because of the anime clip. But IMO it feels disjointed and forced when they use the SNES graphics in the FMV and cut to gameplay all of a sudden.  And the music is a disaster...

Oh, right, speaking of gameplay and sound. The sound effects are really nice in PSX X3.

I like the credits theme in X3, and that's about it.

That must be sarcasm. Charging alone sounds so dumb.


What happens in Vegas stays on Youtube. I also stream on Twitch from time to time.

I couldn't tell if X was charging up his X Buster or a using vacuum cleaner in the CD version. -u-'
And now I have this mental image of X dressed as a French maid.

It doesn't help that X3's buster upgrade already looks like a dust buster...

I'm fond of X3's Dust Buster... It's just so unique... and square...

I'm actually pretty fond of the X3 armor's design in general, although the sprite looks like a total mess.

...When Larry the reploid accountant goes maverick of his own accord, he's certainly formidable during tax season, but he isn't going to provide X the challenge needed to make him grow as a warrior and reach his potential.

Thanks for all the contributions guys  8).

although the sprite looks like a total mess.

I think its actually a nice design. It looks like a remake of the X2 armour.
