Mega Man Xtreme
Encyclopedia : M : ME : MEG : Mega Man Xtreme
Mega Man Xtreme (Rockman X: Cyber Mission in Japan) is a spinoff title in the Mega Man X series of video games from Capcom. It was released for the Game Boy Color and was followed by one direct sequel, Mega Man Xtreme 2. Chronologically, it most likely takes place between Mega Man X2 and Mega Man X3.
Story
A hacker from a band of Mavericks called the Shadow Hunters, Techno, hacks into the world's Mother Computer, destabilizing all of the networks and allowing Mavericks to run wild everywhere. Naturally, X volunteers to dive into cyberspace and put a stop to the madness. This story is split into three arcs: normal, hard and extreme. The mode determines the bosses that confront X on his way.Characters
- Zain- A Shadow Hunter with a large sword. He doesn't speak much, and seems only interested in combat.
- Geemel - A Shadow Hunter with large shuriken. He would be imposing if not for his comical way of speaking and his "ke ke ke" laughter.
- Middy- A green-armored, chipper computer expert working for the Maverick Hunters. He and his brother Techno share the same CPU.
- Techno- A purple-armored, crabby computer expert who hacks into the mother computer for the Shadow Hunters. He and his brother Middy share the same CPU.
Gameplay
Upgrades
Scattered throughout the stages are powerups used by X to enhance his attributes and obtain a wider range of skills:- Body Upgrades - Usually found in well-hidden areas, a projection of Dr. Light will give X encouragement and allow him to acquire an upgrade through use of a capsule:
- *Boots - found in Chill Penguin's stage, these boots cause X to automatically dash-jump while climbing walls. They also allow X to break certain blocks by kicking off of them while wall-climbing. This upgrade is deliberately found in plain sight and cannot be avoided in Easy Mode or Extreme Mode.
- *Armor - found in Flame Stag's stage, the armor upgrade reduces the damage X takes by half.
- *Helmet - found in Storm Eagle's stage, the upgraded helmet allows X to destroy certains types of blocks by jumping into them head-first.
- *X-Buster - found in Spark Mandrill's stage, the enhanced X-Buster allows X to charge up his normal X-Buster to a fourth level (versus the previous three). It also allows him to charge boss weapons to a second level, which invokes an alternate-fire mode.
- *Hadouken And Shoryuken - found in the second Shadow Hunter stage only after defeating all eight bosses and obtaining all upgraded parts. The Hadouken fires an immensely powerful blast that will hurt just about any enemy badly, and the Shoryuken is a strong uppercut that works the same way. Both are cameo attacks from Capcom's wildly-successful Street Fighter series.
- Zero Scrambles- There are four capsules that allow X to summon Zero to perform special attacks.
- *Dash- found in Armored Armadillo's stage. When used, Zero appears and crashes into the enemy.
- *Rising- found in Wheel Gator's stage. When used, Zero rips upwards with his sword.
- *Earth Gaizer- found in Morph Moth's stage. When used, Zero sends out a powerful earthquake.
- *Zero Final- found in Magna Centipede's stage. When used, Zero performs his ultimate attack.
- Health Supplements:
- *Heart Tanks - increases X's life bar by two units, allowing him to survive more damage; one is found in each stage.
- *Sub-Tanks - There are four of these, two in each Mode. They recharge X's HP when he uses them.
