For those that apparently don't know, this is a TAS. This means that a variety of gameplay tools such as savestates, speed altering, frame-by-frame inputs, etc are used to try and play a game in a way that is borderline perfect. Most of the time, a TAS run can be considered not humanly possible due to the limits of hand-eye coordination speed. So everyone who calls it a hack/cheat can just shove it already. These are to show how much of a limit the game has and is not intended to be an actual measure of runner's skills.
Wiler Prime There is no magic asian playing this. In fact, a person's race has nothing to do with their skills; basically I mean Asians are not superhuman. I think that this whole "Asian" master race thing is a myth.
When it came to the boss select theme 2, you know it sounds like it's almost the end for them unless they stop that virus. Not to mention the ending theme sounds like the enemies have won but it's not over yet for Megaman. I haven't played this for a while but the music had some good meaning to it.
And taking the events in the conclusion of this game we have the perfect landscape to begin the Zero seri... Ahem, sorry, we have the perfect landscape to begin Megaman X6, that simply put Zero back in action, hoping that we would just forget the endings of x5. "Thanks for playing"
+Tobias Ortiz Inafune had to make the plot more compatible, because he intended to make X the next main villain. Copy X was created in an emergency. This is why Zero comes in X6 like nothing ever happened. In X6 ending there is space for the Zero series, but then, x7, x8... The plot is really full of holes that Capcom seems unwilling to fill
+bruno couto maybe x9 will be the elf wars era? or maybe the mavericks wars ending era. like x searching for the cure of the Sigma virus and then he founds the mother elf, or the battle between x and zero vs weil and Omega??
+Tobias Ortiz I'm not sure whether Capcom would revive the X series at this point, but most likely the theme of the game would not connect the series... See how each game has an ending that leaves the player wondering what would the next game be? If Capcom finds the next formula for a next game, they will milk it until it gets saturated... See megaman 9 and 10? The same goes there
+Tobias Ortiz but search for "zero vs omega decisive battle" for a nice fan made animation, it's really cool :) An interpretation of what would be to connect some elements of the series
Sigma always gives me the creeps, man... When I was younger, playing this game, Sigma always gives me this fear, but not to the point that I can't kill him. I'm trembling, but challenging.
"Mysterious Voice." Ooooh! I wonder who it could be? Could it possibly be . . . I don't know . . . THE SAME PERSON IT ALWAYS IS IN EVERY MEGAMAN X GAME? Seriously, who did they think they were fooling?
I loved how this game was a tribute to the classic and X series. It was supposed to be the swan song of the X series, and the Zero series was to pick up after X5's end. Why did Capcom have to ruin such a great legacy with X6 and X7?
So I haven't played this game since I was a kid and just noticed the Guns N Roses references. That's awesome. Mattrex - Matt Sorum Grizzy Slash - Slash Duff McWhalen - Duff Mckagen Squid Adler - Steve Adler Izzy Glow - Izzy Stradlin The Skiver - (didn't know this guy, apparently after michael monroe) Dark Dizzy - Dizzy Reed Axle the Red - Axle Rose Old favorite game + One of my favorite bands = Life made.
I LOVE the fact that they play tribute to Megaman 3 and original Willy-esque challenges. they said THIS was supposed to the last one...till they didn't anymore... lol
I don't know if people just didn't read the description, but the suicide was intentional on the bike. It's the fastest way to get to the continue screen and jack the levels. People don't really "make mistakes" in TAS runs like that...
X begins the game with the armor from X4. If you play through Zero Virus Stage 3 with no armor, you can get the Ultimate Armor from the hidden area, which he then uses to blaze through the game.
To those not in the know, TAS means "Tool Assisted Speedrun" and other variations. Meaning he used a program to play the game for him. This is a test of know-how and strategy, rather than game skill.
Supposing your refering to the suicides at around 11:00, it's in order to raise the levels of the bosses. It has to be of a certain number for their armor part to be collected. I think it also has other requirements, but it's been too long since I played the game.
i know its speedrun so you have to be fast. but besides that i came here to feel the nostalgia kinda feel. but its too fast, i cant enjoy it enough, but im really impressed by your skills. but its still cool. but for me still i really miss the struggle from the very beginning without any armor.
TAS means tool assisted speedrun, buddy! It also means that those guys use some sort of tools to break the game, to make the game have the perfect run like we see!
No creo que haya ningún hack solo que me parece que el video está aumentado en 1.5 la velocidad pero fuera de eso eres el mejor que yo haya visto jugar este juego ....mis respetos hermano
I think it's quite interesting that, after all those insane stunts X pulled to save Earth and all of humanity/Reploids from the clutches of the evil Sigma, Maverick Hunter HQ ranks him as 'meh'.
It's not programmed, it's slowed down and re recorded. And usually the top players, the ones with the world records are the ones who do these TAS videos since it takes a great deal of speed running knowledge to have a TAS video world record.
Ok this is funny: While I was reading the desc., I was reading the rank of X and Zero, and what I saw just made me burst with laughter! X's rank was "MEH"! XD
That is because he used to best weapon using an abnormal method. He is trying to go through all this so that we have and idea of how to finish each stage (not including killing the boss) as soon as possible. If he played it normally, I bet it will take a lot longer to beat all these stages. He played it in an unusual manner, but if you play it normally, it is a very hard game to play.
Yes , I agreed with you ! But it's doesn't make any sense we have X6 , X7 AND X8 because the series should be ending in the X5. But I love it each game of X series !
It's explained in the link included in the description. To get all the parts, you must defeat every boss at level 8, at least. Their level increases as the timer decreases, and dying progresses time by an hour. As such, a 100% run requires that you die a few times, because the bosses aren't level 8 yet at the start of the game.
It's mostly luck on what happens and depends on which of the left 4 bosses you beat. Some times it will destroy the station, sometimes it will slow it down. It's mostly random, depending on what the player does.
He is fighting the Boble boss because he managed to destroy the colony that was going to crash into the earth. If you manage to do so you dont have to defeat the bosses, if Im right. As for Wily's logo, its because Zero is Wily's creation that was made to destroy X. Actualy what you're seeing here is a speed run, if you want to actually see the story and logic on the game, you should play it yourself. I hope I was helpful. :)
The beginning boss exploded and spreaded the sigma virus which cause a buncha a reploids to go maverick. Since the whole earth was bascially covered with it, you either had to finish all the mavericks and beat Sigma or crash the entire base.

It dosen't matter if you're doing a speed-run or not, Alia will make sure you stop to hear her pointless exposition.

Hacking and cheating.
Are you telling me there is no a magic asian behind this?
Wiler Prime

RetroMegabyte you just destroyed my childhood
you are pro.
8:50 Oh, my God, he actually stood still for a bit.
This game's soundtrack
Missed the old time
When it came to the boss select theme 2, you know it sounds like it's almost the end for them unless they stop that virus. Not to mention the ending theme sounds like the enemies have won but it's not over yet for Megaman. I haven't played this for a while but the music had some good meaning to it.
10 Years later. This video is still legendary.
Bout time I've seen one with X. All I see is Zeros everywhere. Good job.
Accurate depiction of everyone's first try at Squid Adler stage 10:54
Ready?
SomecallmeJohnny: Nope I sure wasn’t.
That's me, my brother, and all of my friends who played this
And taking the events in the conclusion of this game we have the perfect landscape to begin the Zero seri... Ahem, sorry, we have the perfect landscape to begin Megaman X6, that simply put Zero back in action, hoping that we would just forget the endings of x5.
"Thanks for playing"
nono, x6 connects with MMZ series as well in x6 zero ending. (the one where he puts himself in a long sleep)
+Tobias Ortiz Inafune had to make the plot more compatible, because he intended to make X the next main villain. Copy X was created in an emergency.

eu demorei 2 semanas pra zerar, e o cara vai la e zera com menos de 1 hora... esse merece meu respeito!!!
2:57 Wait a minute, guys! Aren't ya supposed to...
3:16 ...What sorcery is this? ಠ_ಠ'
Nice TAS, anyway. Keep it up.
I love playing this series
+Sendy Lie (Smug Athena Fan) Easiest difficulty, if I am correct
+Rock Hoo Shong Wei Nope, it's actually on Xtreme mode (hard mode).
MegaMan is what brought me up.
I am a big fan of the X series and i gotta say that you are AWESOME haha
"Mysterious Voice."
Ooooh! I wonder who it could be? Could it possibly be . . . I don't know . . . THE SAME PERSON IT ALWAYS IS IN EVERY MEGAMAN X GAME?
Seriously, who did they think they were fooling?
Damn it man. You make it look so easy. Excellent video
I loved how this game was a tribute to the classic and X series. It was supposed to be the swan song of the X series, and the Zero series was to pick up after X5's end. Why did Capcom have to ruin such a great legacy with X6 and X7?
9 years later, but just one word:
M O N E Y.
As always.
Oo loko mano, vc é um monstro. Muito foda cara. Parabéns
David Dias [TAS]
I love everything about this game
GJ Zero. TAS/speed runs are always fun to watch (why suicide on Adler's stage though?)!
Enter the matrix or should I say the megaman. This TAS avoids everything amazingly.
YOU'RE AMAZING!!
Your reaction speed and level of precision are beyond what humans are supposed to be capable of.
1:03:38 hours of Epicness and Nostalgia
Dafuq are you?thats some insane skills right there,I'm actually laughing so hard right now cause of how fast you are
+Clarence John Alfonso its TAS. [tool assisted speedrun] he uses savestates and slowdowns
Oh
just one slice of life needed to beat the final boss...i truly adore u!
Tas is such a beauty...
So I haven't played this game since I was a kid and just noticed the Guns N Roses references. That's awesome.

holy crap! dude you are a beast!! :O it's awesome!
wow Super LEGENDARY
as it is called the song that comes to the last
Love the music the music in this sequal
I like this game, for my was awesome.
ZeroBlaze777!!!!! wow man!! the greatest hour Ive ever spent on youtube
50:40 I Love this theme song
1 HP Final Boss Fight!!!! :O
that black cyclops (I don't know if it has name in x5)
it was the bane of my existence when I was a kid!
@zeroblaze777 Wooooow, your TAS then was Perfect!!!!!
Damn that was some fast gameplay I've ever seen!
this song is amazing wow 29:07
Master Maverick Hunter/Master Irregular Hunter (might be a typo), basically it's the highest rank in X5 you can obtain.
¿¡WTF!?... ¡You're so awesome!
I LOVE the fact that they play tribute to Megaman 3 and original Willy-esque challenges. they said THIS was supposed to the last one...till they didn't anymore... lol

X begins the game with the armor from X4. If you play through Zero Virus Stage 3 with no armor, you can get the Ultimate Armor from the hidden area, which he then uses to blaze through the game.
Collecting the parts just improves the chances of it working. With a TAS, you can just keep rewinding until it does.
Fight Sigma With Final Blood And Yet Still Win Like A Boss
Woah We Got A Badass Over Here
Nope, it still hurts like a damn seeing X almost destroyed
I almost forgot how much text dialogue this game has. Good lord.
you r crazy zeroblaze777-sama :')
Tas
OMG you are a god at this game
Yeah ikr,if megaman was multiplayer he would annihilated the shit out of players,and kick him
+X Playthrough no, he uses slowdown and Savestates, [TAS]
To those not in the know, TAS means "Tool Assisted Speedrun" and other variations. Meaning he used a program to play the game for him.
This is a test of know-how and strategy, rather than game skill.
nice video. thx man u pro!
Over a decade later and this is still one of the only 100% speedruns of X5 where the player uses X lol
Supposing your refering to the suicides at around 11:00, it's in order to raise the levels of the bosses. It has to be of a certain number for their armor part to be collected. I think it also has other requirements, but it's been too long since I played the game.
I laughed so hard when I read that the whales name is Duff McWhalen!! Ahh Capcom.
I luv u zeroblaze....
I remember the first time I played this. The only thought that crossed my mind was "X CAN CROUCH?!?! WHAT KIND OF SORCERY IS THIS?!"
it was the exact opposite for me. X5 was the first X game I ever played so when I played X4 I was like, wtf I can’t crouch? why?
i know its speedrun so you have to be fast. but besides that i came here to feel the nostalgia kinda feel. but its too fast, i cant enjoy it enough, but im really impressed by your skills. but its still cool. but for me still i really miss the struggle from the very beginning without any armor.
TAS
but combo x5
KonxOmPax its a TAS run, man. Not a normal speedrun.
TAS means tool assisted speedrun, buddy! It also means that those guys use some sort of tools to break the game, to make the game have the perfect run like we see!
No creo que haya ningún hack solo que me parece que el video está aumentado en 1.5 la velocidad pero fuera de eso eres el mejor que yo haya visto jugar este juego ....mis respetos hermano
the best megaman gamer in the world is here
TAS is not about to show the player's skill, but to find the shortest time to beat it.
me gusta este video y es de contrareloj de velocidad
Literal meaning: Tool-Assisted Speedrun
Popular meaning: The Asian Standard
yeah, i agree with you man, that's why megaman X6, they let you call her with the select button and F1 button with the pc version!
WOW:D!! Best gamer ever!!!
Nice run, but what exactly was the point of all the spaz jumping and spaz shooting during idle moments?
love this kind of ganes
RIDIN' ON CARS!
I think it's quite interesting that, after all those insane stunts X pulled to save Earth and all of humanity/Reploids from the clutches of the evil Sigma, Maverick Hunter HQ ranks him as 'meh'.

What I personally don't understand is why he jumps around everywhere. wouldn't there be the slightest bit of lag when they hit the ground?
Ok this is funny: While I was reading the desc., I was reading the rank of X and Zero, and what I saw just made me burst with laughter! X's rank was "MEH"! XD
Scumbagman X: Complete the mission, forget about hostages calling for help.
XD His ranking as X in the end was "MEH" As in... "Meh... I had better scores. This was just me average with some java."
Those instant death rays gave me so much trouble as a kid.
It was fun jumping like that :D
Black Zero is just barely a color upgrade. He still works the same regardless of color.
I thought I was good at these games, but this is like trying to win a violin contest against the devil.
The credits theme is fucking amazing.
Megaman on drugs lol.
That is because he used to best weapon using an abnormal method. He is trying to go through all this so that we have and idea of how to finish each stage (not including killing the boss) as soon as possible. If he played it normally, I bet it will take a lot longer to beat all these stages.
He played it in an unusual manner, but if you play it normally, it is a very hard game to play.
Awesome from 4:01 to 4:12
Amazing dude!
my favorite zero
Yes , I agreed with you !
But it's doesn't make any sense we have
X6 , X7 AND X8 because the series should be ending in the X5.
But I love it each game of X series !

Their level increases as the timer decreases, and dying progresses time by an hour. As such, a 100% run requires that you die a few times, because the bosses aren't level 8 yet at the start of the game.

It's mostly luck on what happens and depends on which of the left 4 bosses you beat. Some times it will destroy the station, sometimes it will slow it down. It's mostly random, depending on what the player does.
Megaman, Megaman!
The only thing that made this speedrun slower by minutes is DAMN YOU ALIA
Why did you suicide in Volt kraken stage before Mattrex?
woooooow
He is fighting the Boble boss because he managed to destroy the colony that was going to crash into the earth. If you manage to do so you dont have to defeat the bosses, if Im right. As for Wily's logo, its because Zero is Wily's creation that was made to destroy X. Actualy what you're seeing here is a speed run, if you want to actually see the story and logic on the game, you should play it yourself. I hope I was helpful. :)
Op!!!
I believe it's to change the hours that are left, making changes to the game which help him in the long run.
Alia: X! X! THOSE SPIKES WILL-
Player: SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!
Alia: *starts to cry*
Player: ...look look I'm sorry but...I don't really feel SORRY for you-
PFFFF with ultimate armor everyone can finish the game
The beginning boss exploded and spreaded the sigma virus which cause a buncha a reploids to go maverick. Since the whole earth was bascially covered with it, you either had to finish all the mavericks and beat Sigma or crash the entire base.
that mud golem boss would always piss me the fuck off when i was a kid lol
how did you shot down the satellite?
I tried that before that before, but always failed.
