Played X2 on the Legacy collection and was able to get to Flame Stag's stage. I loved the stage music, the intensity perfectly fit the stage's hazards. The rising lava and the scorching fire, it was my favorite X stage so far. Just when I thought it couldn't get better... *I found this remix.* And I stand corrected. Nice work as always, Knuckle! Edit: WOAH! A heart!? Thank you, Knuckle!
Good God I love your music! I have gotten even my strictly "non-metal" friends into your music. I play it around them and a few days later I get a low key text saying....hey, who was that guy who played those megaman song covers....the best part is they don't even play megaman haha. Love the music, and I am so glad that there is someone in this world who can makes tunes the way you do!
Honestly dude, after listening to your other Mega Man remixes, I gotta say this is still my favorite. Afterburner and the Metal Warrior assault theme are top tier though. You are a downright fantastic artist, man.
I like how more of the video is of fighting Serges than Flame Stag himself. Excellent remix, by the way! Added this and a bunch of your other MMX remixes to my VGM playlist. Good stuff; thanks!
One of my absolute favorite tracks remixed into something even MORE metal and furious sounding. If X-2 gets an HD remake THIS had better be the song they use for the Flame Stag stage. Thank you a million times over for this remix
Bud. you are the best at VG remixes. On all of youtube. I'm serious. You're even better than the acapella dude. For real. Don't stop now. You will get your 10000000000 subs. keep it up.
Step 1 - clicks on video Step 2 - begins writing scathing comment about how nothing is better than the original Step 3 - listens to remix Step 4 - pick up the brain splatter all over the floor Step 5 - tell my now fatherless children it was worth it
It has became among my favorites after beating it today. My childhood self would be proud of me for kicking as much ass I do now playing through the X games.
every time i see an update from you it makes me giddy like a school girl. You bring that energy to everything you touch. now that i think about it, you've covered the majority of the songs from X1 haven't you, I wonder how many songs are left ? I kinda wonder what your sound would be like on something more thrashy like GTR, Format X, or Last springsteen from Contra:hardcorps. Anyway,as always I look forward to that high energy sound from whatever you got planned next. Keep rocking man.
Holy fuck Stone! That was 4 minutes and 45 seconds of bliss. I love the style you did this in. It has me itching for more. You wouldn't possibly be planning on doing the X-hunter stage theme from the first two would you?
Thanks! If your kid grows up to be the king/queen of presidents, it counts for a lot. It still counts for something even if that doesn't end up being the case though!
Me too but I need to raise my power level for that song. SSH's old version of it is REALLY good and I don't want to put out something that just totally pales in comparison.
It's not impossible, but it's not particularly likely either. I'm not a big fan of that song and the solo seems like it'd be a pain in the ass to transcribe. People keep requesting it though, so I might cave at some point. ;p
Hello there -- I'd like to ask, would you be OK with this cover being used in a video? (Obviously, I will credit both in the video, and the description/comment section)
So Chill Penguin, three Sigma stages, Boomer Kuwanger, Sting Chameleon, Launch Octopus and some assorted tunes are left. Yeah, don't hold your breath. This'll probably happen eventually, but it ain't gonna be quick.
It felt bland in comparison to X1 which was awesome and X3 which was great. X6 is also one of my least favorites, but I rarely acknowledge that game. Especially seeing as how I played the hell out of the SNES editions more than their PS1 counterparts.
What makes X2 pale in comparison to X1? X2 improved on many things X1 did (I consider X1 to be one of the weaker games of the series, but it's excusable as it was the very first and Capcom was just testing the waters with it), such as improve on the armors, add optional bosses, add the bikes, buffed the armor, and gave the dash from the very start because of how vital it was to keeping the game's pace. There isn't anything in the game that I'd call bad. Now, with X6, there's plenty in that game that I'd call bad. The Nightmare System is stupid and cumbersome, the Maverick names are just plain weird, you need the entire armor in order to use a single part, Gate Stage 2 is basically shouting for you to use the Shadow Armor and the player later gets punished for using it, most of the stages are just plain annoying, High Max takes forever to kill, you have to equip Zero's techniques, the final boss is pitifully easy compared against the Gate battle, the translations are all messed up, Capcom was too lazy to change the voice actors so they just used the Japanese translations, very few weapons in X's arsenal are very useful with the exception of Commander Yammark's weapon and charged Metal Anchor, etc. But when it comes to music, X6 has X2 beat.
The best part about RUclips is finding people like you. Thanks for bringing my childhood back in a metal way!
@AdidaX21 Hey i think i already met you on mhw
You absolute chad🔥🙌
Mega Man has the best fans. The ost changed lives. Another awesome remix, Stone McKnuckle!
Good Old Days Gaming
It's because the OST of megaman are truely good.
Have you ever heard of 21XX. It's an Dungeons and Dragons style game based off the Mega Man X timline.
the megaman fandom is not as passive as you think, but it is saved by fangames and community remixes
2022
Fucking straight up bro.
Played X2 on the Legacy collection and was able to get to Flame Stag's stage. I loved the stage music, the intensity perfectly fit the stage's hazards. The rising lava and the scorching fire, it was my favorite X stage so far.
Just when I thought it couldn't get better...
*I found this remix.*
And I stand corrected.
Nice work as always, Knuckle!
Edit: WOAH! A heart!? Thank you, Knuckle!
You always know it's going to be an awesome day when there's that little 1 next to Stone's name. Great job man.

I absolutely love this remix I was never fond of X2’s soundtrack but when I found this I thought yes THIS IS FREAKING AWESOME especially 2:18
facts
Good God I love your music! I have gotten even my strictly "non-metal" friends into your music. I play it around them and a few days later I get a low key text saying....hey, who was that guy who played those megaman song covers....the best part is they don't even play megaman haha. Love the music, and I am so glad that there is someone in this world who can makes tunes the way you do!
hahaha that's pretty damn cool considering I think my stuff's not that easy to listen to
Honestly dude, after listening to your other Mega Man remixes, I gotta say this is still my favorite.
Afterburner and the Metal Warrior assault theme are top tier though. You are a downright fantastic artist, man.
I like how more of the video is of fighting Serges than Flame Stag himself. Excellent remix, by the way! Added this and a bunch of your other MMX remixes to my VGM playlist. Good stuff; thanks!
The original was so heavy metal already, that this one just blew me away to the next level! Awesome stuff man!
Ehhh, I don't know. This has more of a power metal feel to it, but it's a great remix nonetheless
One of my absolute favorite tracks remixed into something even MORE metal and furious sounding. If X-2 gets an HD remake THIS had better be the song they use for the Flame Stag stage. Thank you a million times over for this remix
I loved Flame Stag before, now I love him even more. Superb job as always!
Opening visual was great! Really had a "world on fire" feel.
This is dope my dude, glad to see your channel growing more and more :D
That was a really nice remix and a good video to boot! I figured it would just be a still image, but you surprised me. Excellent!
Fuck yeah man, im really glad you did this. Good shit, it sounds really good
A remix AND walk through in one video?! You're a damn genius!!!!! Also this is the game that got me interested in game development
It's my favorite song from X2! Great job!
Has that "power ranger" style crunch to it. I love it.
this guy here shits excellence. I'm listening to a playlist and i can't stop feeling just good with all this awesome rock going on
BRUH. You just made my morning. One of my new favorites for sure
Thank You Stone for your perfect work! I AM so happy to listen to such a thing...
OH MY GOSH! The motherfreakingly epic Flame Stag Stage song remixed by Stone McKnuckle!!!! Things can't get more awesome than this.
probably one of the best remixes on youtube, greetings from a parallel universe!
this song brings out the emotion that flame stag gives when he charges up for his fire fist moves
Very well done dude this is pretty sick.. jamming out hard this morning because of you >:) much appreciated
Goddamn that solo is good shit. Awesome remix man!
Best megaman x remix ever made
Holy shit this sounds badass!

Bud. you are the best at VG remixes. On all of youtube. I'm serious. You're even better than the acapella dude. For real. Don't stop now. You will get your 10000000000 subs. keep it up.
Thanks so much, though I doubt I'll be taking off considering my niche. But hey, here's to hoping!
youtube is a tough grind. keep at itman
Dude, this is awesome! Even better than the original. :D
Much better!!!
Step 1 - clicks on video
Step 2 - begins writing scathing comment about how nothing is better than the original
Step 3 - listens to remix
Step 4 - pick up the brain splatter all over the floor
Step 5 - tell my now fatherless children it was worth it
Remixes are supposed to be better than the original ._.
What a masterpiece.
Simply Megatastic!
And McKnuckle delivers once again. Rock on, Stone.

My childhood self would be proud of me for kicking as much ass I do now playing through the X games.
Simplesmente sensacional parabéns! 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
_super cool_ ⭐
Great song, sick video.
Sick beat, great job!!!
Best arrenged version of flame stag
brother McKnuckle kills it again
0:37 after 4:31 to continue the song
The Legend says: to this day X still fighting the Flame Stag
every time i see an update from you it makes me giddy like a school girl. You bring that energy to everything you touch. now that i think about it, you've covered the majority of the songs from X1 haven't you, I wonder how many songs are left ?
I kinda wonder what your sound would be like on something more thrashy like GTR, Format X, or Last springsteen from Contra:hardcorps.
Anyway,as always I look forward to that high energy sound from whatever you got planned next. Keep rocking man.
I tried Format X just recently actually and it sounded like a pile of molten turds. Probably won't try any more from that soundtrack. :I
Holy fuck Stone! That was 4 minutes and 45 seconds of bliss. I love the style you did this in. It has me itching for more. You wouldn't possibly be planning on doing the X-hunter stage theme from the first two would you?
I wasn't actually planning to since I'd forgotten about that tune, but this was a good reminder. Fuck yeah, I'll do it.
Stone McKnuckle You are a gift to the music world. Can't wait to see you work your magic on it.
drive.google.com/open?id=0B1-CpdkXQADZRFRFQ1RlSDdmNWc ok this was a good suggestion, thanks. now it just needs a fuckton of OC and then we're gold
Stone McKnuckle No no, Thank you! That sample sounded like the start of something epic.
Holy fuck I can't wait for that X Hunters remix! Going to sound amazing
It's AWESOME! Hope it counts for something: My kid loves this video!
Thanks!
If your kid grows up to be the king/queen of presidents, it counts for a lot. It still counts for something even if that doesn't end up being the case though!
AFTER 10,000 YEARS STONE IS FREE
IT'S TIME TO CONQUER MUSIC
me encanta esta version
HOLY FUCK
THAT WAS SO FUCKING BADASS!!!
FREAKIN' EPIC!!!
AAAAAAAHHAHAHAHAAAAA MEMORIIIIIEEESSS
*OMG ITS LEGENDARYYYYY*
OOHHHHHH AWESOMEEEEE
Awesome 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 you rock 🤘
aww yisss! i really would like to hear your take on Tales of symphonia - fighting of the spirit
Me too but I need to raise my power level for that song. SSH's old version of it is REALLY good and I don't want to put out something that just totally pales in comparison.
i doubt you need to raise those anymore ,but get your ass into time chamber and start to work on those power levels ;)
long may you reign
Flame Stag?? Hell yea, thank you, Stone McKnuckle! :)
Please do a remix of the Mega Man X 2 intro stage theme!
I love all mega man x games and art
He got the heart container and made it outta there alive!
The video work is espeially good on this one, also.
I love so much this fucking soundtrack
Bro Do you ever plan on doing a rework to x4 Zero opening??? Would be epic!
It's not impossible, but it's not particularly likely either. I'm not a big fan of that song and the solo seems like it'd be a pain in the ass to transcribe. People keep requesting it though, so I might cave at some point. ;p
New JKB mmx corrupted video and stone mc knuckle music on same day.
YES
Good stuff
I like the video man, the gameplay with the music goes well together. maybe try some different effects?
What I'd really like to do is figure out some way to include the V-Metal fretboard. We'll see what I can whip up.
Stone McKnuckle I'd like that almost as much as the midi files for this lol
in the beginning of the song sounds like top man's stage theme
Hello there -- I'd like to ask, would you be OK with this cover being used in a video? (Obviously, I will credit both in the video, and the description/comment section)
Absolutely.
Thanks a lot, sincerely
awesomeee
EPIC....
Still waiting for a Megaman soundtrack from you Stoney. Make it happen! Id buy it.
So Chill Penguin, three Sigma stages, Boomer Kuwanger, Sting Chameleon, Launch Octopus and some assorted tunes are left. Yeah, don't hold your breath.
This'll probably happen eventually, but it ain't gonna be quick.
Any chance of you doing any more Thunder Force music like Sea of Flames, Evil Destroyer, Venus Fire, Sand Hell, or Hunger Made Them Desperate?
You bet. Venus Fire most likely. There's a metric crapton of stuff I wanna do, but I have pretty limited free time :(
Insta click, insta love, insta thumbs up, insta comment.
Dude nice
awesome !!
Dope
nice music lml , i like
what is the effect you used on the gameplay? i wanna get a similar effect on my video
Looks like it's just two buckets of bloom and a sepia filter.
the beginning of this song sounds pretty similar to yumemi's theme from touhou 3
black diamond by stratovarius
Awesome song Warp Vulpex NEXT
I'm working on Warp Vulpex. We'll see what happens.
know when you'll be done?
Nope. I work on other projects at the same time.
Please tell me you did Overdrive Ostrich or he's next on your Mega Man X projects. Cause him and Stag were my favorite tracks on X2.
Sorry, guarantee I won't be doing that one. I honestly think X2 has one of the weakest soundtracks in the series. :I
Damn it. >__<
Worth an ask, I guess.
Yeah, X2 is my least favorite out of the X series. Even with X6 that I've played. And that says a lot.
Hm, why do you say that X2's the worst in the series? Just curious.
The only real thing that X6 holds above X2 is the OST.
It felt bland in comparison to X1 which was awesome and X3 which was great. X6 is also one of my least favorites, but I rarely acknowledge that game. Especially seeing as how I played the hell out of the SNES editions more than their PS1 counterparts.
What makes X2 pale in comparison to X1?

But when it comes to music, X6 has X2 beat.
Might make mmx vids for the collection, permission to use this? Most def link them to u
For sure man, feel free.
Fuckin' epic
