This game had such cool little attention to detail. Like how bosses have either the Repliforce or Maverick logo depending on their allegiance, and when X kills Dragoon he doesn't do his victory pose and just teleports out without fanfare after his friend did all that just to fight him. It's wild.
Double being an agent of Sigma always got to me... just like when he tore through the other Maverick Hunters mercilessly... I also felt bad for Zero when he had to kill Iris.
Same. I also felt bad for X after he beats Dragoon. You ever notice he doesn't do a thumbs up after that fight, and instead just leaves without any fanfare after killing his buddy who betrayed all of them just so they could fight for fun?
This is best MegaMan X game. Period. The best soundtrack (just listen to that boss select music...!), the dark tone and DEPTH of the storyline, and some of the coolest Mavericks to ever grace the screen. One of my ultimate childhood games.
The storyline differs slightly depending on whether the player chooses Mega Man X or Zero. Mega ManX4 takes place in an ambiguous year in the 22nd century (22XX), where humans coexist with intelligent androids called "Reploids". Following the third defeat of Sigma, a second Maverick Hunting group has arisen. The army, called the "Repliforce", is a strict military regime led the giant Reploid General and his second-in-command, figure who plots the Hunter's demise, trying to convince General that the Hunters are dangerous, and will turn on him in an instant. General dismisses the figure, unwilling to betray the Humans.
In my humble opinion ladies and gentlemen, this game is the true champ of the X series (next to the first game of course). It had so much going for it too at the time (and still does today). It was to show what 32 bit sprites could do on the PS1 & Saturn. Gameplay was crystal smooth. For the first time Zero was not only playable in a complete manner (refer to MMX3 for what I mean by that), but he had a entirely different narrative than X, in which it dives a little into his past. The level design was at it's most unique in MM history here. The soundtrack is STELLAR here and in my opinion has never been topped by not only any other MMX game (X5 is a close second though), but I argue it rivals many of, if not all the ones from the classic series too. My only real complaint (and I barely call it that because of the cheese factor) is the voice acting. It is either so bland that it ruins the mood, or it's so bat-shit insane and eccentric that you can't help but laugh LMAO! Sigma & Double in particular they are a riot here! In short, in what great experiences the entire X series gives as a whole from start to finish (or current as you could call it since it technically doesn't have a series ending, it just stopped after X8 & Command Mission), this one I feel shines the brightest despite it having at least 1 very noticeable but easily forgivable flaw. If you haven't played MMX4, you're missing out! Even if you are not a Mega Man fan but you love action platformers, you will still have a ball here (probably more than the others to be honest)! If you're the "on the go" type of person and own a PSVita, you're in luck as you can download this via PSN for $4.99 (MM1-4, MM8, MML1/2, MMX5 & MMX6 are also downloadable btw)! Totally worth it! A true gem from the PS1 & Saturn era! I think the video speaks for itself though. It sure as hell doesn't need me to give it praise ;) Now excuse me, I am, going to go jam out to the soundtrack on my iPhone haha!
since when is X4 on PSVita? I looked for it on the PS Store for ages and it's still not there! also, I personally don't like X4's soundtrack. probably my least favorite X OST
I agree. The story is the only part of the game that I don't like; along with it's bad voice acting. But the game itself was a blast. I love this game. It's personally my favorite Mega Man game in general & one of my favorite games of all time.
the storyline of the game kind of makes me think of Captain America Civil War (Two sides that are not evil fighting each other because one person disagreed with the other)
One of the best longplay I've seen. Awesome job with the video, it looks lossless at 480p! And the runs are excellent. X4 is an awesome game. Too bad Capcom made some of the bosses too easy with them being stunned when hit by the right weapon.
Not all of them are easy. Some can be challenging. Best example is Magma Dragoon, Jet Stingway, Slash Beast, Storm Owl, Colonel, the Major & Sigma phase 2 & 3. But anyways, yeah. X4 is still an fantastic game.
to be fair the "boss gets stunned by their weakness" is a problem that the X series suffers in general I'd preffer if the animations when they're stunned happened but the boss could counter attack or even the animations would have a chance to happen instead of happening all the time, like the boss takes damage from the weakness but it gets stunned sometimes instead of always. but yeah other than that the X games, excluding x6 and x7 are really good, and X1 and X4 are the perfect games
This intro..:') ...sigh I'm now 26 an jus ..sigh .maybe getting old ain't so bad. I grew up with such beautiful games...the rise of tech an o.g games. Whos with me:)?
gila si tahun 2010 ke bawah terasa tahun-tahun terindah untuk anak 1998, kalo liat game-game kaya gini jadi pen ulang lagi masa-masa SD, pulang sekolah/malem main ginian 🤗
theres another way to beat dragoon... jus put the suit on before you get to him and cut thru the bricks at the bottom.. the suit allows you to walk in lava without damage.. Ive always started at dragoon first.
This really almost brought tears to my eyes. I purchased the original game back in 2003 when I got my first PC ever. I couldn't wait to come back from school just so I can fire up the PC and play it. Really much simpler times.
I wish we would have an X9 similar to X4 because IMO this was the best X game. Perfect controls, nice graphics, balanced difficulty and an awesome flow of everything else. X9 should have the music of X4, controls/Level design/storyline of X4 while also being innovative.
Yes, they made monster hunter world iceborne, 2 resident evil remakes, still doing mega man with mega man 11..dmc5..yeah look where they are now, it's like they went all konami right?? Let's not forget they re-release mega man zero zx on the switch as well as re-release the x series
3:44:26 ZERO past. He infected the main villain of the Mega Man X series Sigma, in a battle. Doctor Wiley had put some type of virus in Zero. So Sigma was not a bad robot at first.
I git SO far on this game back in the day, but never finished it! Thankfully I have a Saturn that I bought a few years ago from a small yet highly popular spot here in NYC. I need to get back in this game full force and finish what I started years ago!!
The blonde chick in red with the red and pink poodle. The construction worker wearing the helmet with the green cross. Infaune wearing an all blue outfit
I like the voice acting in this game a lot. You can really see how giving a bunch of homeless guys $10 to read a script works in Capcom's favor.
Best comment in the galaxy.
X sounds like he was voiced by a 6 year old pretending to be X.
sarcasm? bah, as if you could do it any better
Wait really?
The japanese dub is so much better
This game had such cool little attention to detail. Like how bosses have either the Repliforce or Maverick logo depending on their allegiance, and when X kills Dragoon he doesn't do his victory pose and just teleports out without fanfare after his friend did all that just to fight him. It's wild.
In case you haven't heard: Skip to 3:25:58 for Zero's most iconic cutscene.
Someone should remake that but have it the same except paste P.M. Seymour's version over it.
Double being an agent of Sigma always got to me... just like when he tore through the other Maverick Hunters mercilessly... I also felt bad for Zero when he had to kill Iris.
Agreed. It felt like a mini Aeris in FF7.. Not nearly as impactful obviously, but still hit you pretty good nonetheless.
Same. I also felt bad for X after he beats Dragoon. You ever notice he doesn't do a thumbs up after that fight, and instead just leaves without any fanfare after killing his buddy who betrayed all of them just so they could fight for fun?
I want to go back to the old days, no social media, just games
Agreed. Social media is still a toxic poisonous tool to use as of today
The Megaman X series is so rare, but Megamn X4 and Megaman 8 have animated cutscenes, ones that looked like they took some from an anime tv show
Its so cheese factor that I can't help but laugh though LMAO!
it's rare? you mean it's rare to find a physical copy of these games on the internet?
KusKusPL he’s talking of x2 and 3
The games aren't really rare, you can just get them via the legacy collections.
Those were the best two games
when in elementary school i play this game with my mom at night. But now i never see her again :(
me 2 but with my child hood friend, sorry mate, all thats left is nostalgia
Adhi Pradana I'm sorry for you, mate. 😢
Sabar broo, gue juga ada kenangan pas maen ini game :(
What happened to your mother?
Adhi Pradana what happened to your mom
One of Capcom's greatest games ever in my opinion.
This is best MegaMan X game. Period. The best soundtrack (just listen to that boss select music...!), the dark tone and DEPTH of the storyline, and some of the coolest Mavericks to ever grace the screen. One of my ultimate childhood games.
Megaman X5?
Agreed
WHAT AM I FIGHTING FOOOORR!?!?
capcom please do us all a favor and never give zero that kind of voice ever again plz
+patrick smith Same!
OnnerbLeakcim yes
don't worry it won't happen again
*patrick smith* At least Zero's Japanese voice is better.
brings up old childhood memories and hours of gameplay. so glad i found this in youtube. Thank you!
In 2019 miss my childhood days
Woah, I think that I am the only one who likes it
I like the small Easter eggs of the former bosses in frost walrus stage RIP Chill Penguin and Blizzard Buffalo.
SilverTheRain lol so I'm not the only one who realized that
Blizzard buffalo gostova de fazer esculturas agora ele é uma
That gave me the chills, but you can also find wire sponge's corpse in Megaman ZX (Advent?) No idea how wire sponge didn't decompose for 200 years
Blizzard buffalo from dr doppler and chill penguin from maverick hunter is dead ice.
"What am I fighting fooooooooooooooooooooooooooor?" lol So iconic.
🤣🤣🤣 Ya got that right
"This... is my fate, I couldn't save anyone after *AUWGH* "
i used to play it everyday, omg good old days!! thanks for giving me such memory
The voice acting in this game is timeless perfection.
It's one of the things that turned me off from liking this game. It was such a shift from the previous three games.
truly i needed to play this in japanese... and then read the dialogues in a faq haha
15:52 Chill Penguin is frozen XD
+epic_Awesome Gameplays And is that Spark MAndrill frozen? at 1:18:28
+epic_Awesome Gameplays or maybe at 1:12:20 that is spark mandrill?
+epic_Awesome Gameplays 14:11 is Blizzard Buffalo.
Why are they all in the same level and frozen? XD didn't they get completely destroyed in the past games?
Bogyman the dark Spark Mandrill is weak to Chill Penguin’s Shotgun Ice, so there’s one explanation for you
1:23:47:X vs. Double
3:24:01:Zero vs. Iris
Que tiempos aquellos cuando jugaba horas y horas que juegazo del Arcade y todavia lo sige siendo grasias por compartir este bonito recuerdo 🤩🤩🤩🤩👏👏👏👏👍
Jump to 3:25:58 to figure out what was he fighting for.
X looks more like a teenager compared to the original Mega Man to even have a childish voice.
Wait, what?
Sean the Challenger watch the playthrough and hear for yourself.
Uzoma Iwuagwu No, I was trying to figure out what you just said, but by reading it over and over I finally understand on what you just said. XD
X has female voice in the X4
His voice is so goddamn annoying here, ugh
Mark Gatha is still the best VA for X, for sure!
*THIS GAME WAS SO POPULAR IN THE PHILIPPINES!*
Yes, my uncle used to play this and I'm so impressed how he managed to beat the game
Man, that opening and those cutscenes are so mid-90s anime. Especially the muffled English dubbing :3
0:00:00 X's run / 1:58:13 Zero's run.

Slight correction, the game takes place in 21XX
One of my favorite games. Even today i still play this a lot
How ? I have an Xbox 360 ..

Gets you pumped I know! :)
pura pinche falsa voz de x
It got censored on the legacy collection though
@@LockeIProd they did a pose seen as offensive

Is it just me or is that a silhouette of Dr. Wily we see in Zero's dreams?

Thank you for this, wish I could pin RUclips comments
This game has aged very well
the storyline of the game kind of makes me think of Captain America Civil War (Two sides that are not evil fighting each other because one person disagreed with the other)
patrick smith WHY AM I not the ONLY ONE who thinks that yo I said the same shit great minds think alike
Except one tells an better story ( CA: CW. ) while the others isn't ( X4. But the game itself is still amazing ).
Am I the only one that likes the japanese intro better? I bought this from the PSN store awhile back and I wish that it had the japanese opening...
That intro was cringe as shit
If you got it from the ps store you can change the games to the original Rockman X JP VERSIONS
That famous line of Zero. Hu ha hu! Damn! Miss elementary days where everyone is watching you finishing this game.
Thanks for not rushing/skipped the dialogues on the game like other gamers. I actually wanna know the entire X4's story through the game
Jogo que marcou minha infância
Adoro essa introdução da Capcom com a propagação da luz entre cubos...
Prefiro a versão japonesa por causa da canção na abertura, essa versão a música é genérica.
Love the First Stage Select Music so much
The best X game bar none. Whole series went downhill after this
I said the Same shit bro lol.
X5 was good & X8 was great. But X4 is amazing & it probably is the best of the X series & one of the best Mega Man games out there.
Yep
No. No. NO. All of mega man x games are amazing idc what anybody says.
Agree
This was my first Megaman X I ever played as a kid.
One of the best longplay I've seen. Awesome job with the video, it looks lossless at 480p! And the runs are excellent.

Which I never played but I have to admit, watching a playthrough of it was really entertaining. And SF4 is crazy fun.
AVGN Brought me here.
Happy 10 years to the AVGN on RUclips!
why are u here?
Web Spider has the best Jungle music compared to Neon Tiger from x3 and Soldier Stonekong from x7. Web spiders music is the best!!
theres another way to beat dragoon... jus put the suit on before you get to him and cut thru the bricks at the bottom.. the suit allows you to walk in lava without damage.. Ive always started at dragoon first.
Oh sweet, this ad compilation has short megaman breaks.
Yep
Premium
This game taught a life lesson. Can't trust nobody.
*OHHH MY CHILDHOOD MEMORIES HIT ME SOOO HARD!*
It brings back memories from more than 1 decade ago
X4 is still the greatest game of Rockman franchise.
This really almost brought tears to my eyes. I purchased the original game back in 2003 when I got my first PC ever. I couldn't wait to come back from school just so I can fire up the PC and play it. Really much simpler times.
This game was on PC?
1:28:55 Best quote in the entire game, bar none.
it was a nice game that remind me the nostalgie of my childhood🙃
Figures doubles weakness is the weapon with his first name on it :P
This might actually be one of if not my favourite game of all time!
Same.
Wow best voice acting in gaming history.
Give them an oscar
You should hear X7 it's even better
The best megaman off al time!!
Thank you! Someone else said it other than me! :D
Inspirational Game got that right
Javier O'higgins and
*Megaman X4 is not garbage, it’s the best Megaman X Game there is other than X2*
Javier O'higgins I disagree.
15:41 I like that they throw frozen villain from the first game into this one.
THANKS VERY VERY VERY MUCH!!! THIS IS JUST MY GREAT CHILDHOOD MEMORY!!! FINALLY I FOUND IT HERE!!!

"What if I become a Maverick?"
Ladies and gentlemen, we call that the magic of Foreshadowing.
That voice really doesn't fit with x. :/
Kinda*
"Dragoon of the 14th unit is a traitor" Oh really, Double? 🤣
The things that irritated me about this game was the inability to crouch and there was no such thing as an auto-charge setting as in X5.
That moment when Double slash and kill the robots, it splat . . . . . . blood?
Now look where Capcom ended up...
Yes, they made monster hunter world iceborne, 2 resident evil remakes, still doing mega man with mega man 11..dmc5..yeah look where they are now, it's like they went all konami right?? Let's not forget they re-release mega man zero zx on the switch as well as re-release the x series

The voice actor of X her name is Ruth Shiraishi born on May 30th, 1966 in North Carolina, she's now a CEO of Jarman International
Esse nega man x4 e com serteza o melhor longplay que eu já vi
I love JetSting Ray stage theme and Magma Dragoon.
I like magma dragoon theme!!!
This Logo "Megaman" was used in Megaman X4-8 Megaman Battle Network Series, Megaman Zero Series and Megaman ZX series.
Miss those days, I still can't believe in the cutscene that Zero saw was Dr. Wiley
megaman tanto da serie classica quanto da serie x sao meus jogos favoritos
One of the best games all time
I can agree to that.
I git SO far on this game back in the day, but never finished it! Thankfully I have a Saturn that I bought a few years ago from a small yet highly popular spot here in NYC. I need to get back in this game full force and finish what I started years ago!!
there's also the mega man x legacy collection, but i understand wanting an original version of the game
In 2006,I played this game for the first time since the computer welcomes us on November 2005 and my sister help to play Megaman X4
me too i like this game. from what country are you?
Brings back alot of memories!
I miss this game 2018 😍
Can I just say that I love this game?
O Melhor Mega que ja Joguei Minha infância lembro de tudo meu amigos tudo Jogava O X 4 e uma Garota que eu gostava jogava mega man X 4

No idea about the dubbing, but yeah :) I miss that old-skool feeling in anime...somehow.
You mean that purple tank? That increases your starting lives from 2 to 4 when you die on your last life, and choose to continue.
Oh yeah. From the MAN himself, Inafune.
Why does X have to sound like a girl? I wish the dude who did Serious Sam would overdub this game or something.
This brings back memories
This kind of voice acting in 1997 the year of our lord...
