Well, now that Sigma has been slain in X1, what should follow? Why, a No Power-Ups Boss Rush for Mega Man X2, of course! So once again, I shall head against Sigma's forces with nothing but the X-Buster. No upgrades, no special weapons, no Heart or Sub Tanks. However, I will Dash, since Dashing is NOT an upgrade in this game(YES!). Anyway, let's get on with the videos! Essentially, Crystal Snail is an upgrade to Armored Armadillo from X1. Both have shots that are fairly easy to dodge. Both have protection against most attacks. And both have an annoying "bounce around the room" technique of sorts. Crystal Snail is just a little bit nastier, though, and more damaging. Still, he's brought down by the plasma of X's gun.

So here's the fight with Iris. Along with one mistake getting to the fight, I took a little damage during the battle, but not too bad. Ryuenjin deals a decent amount of damage to the crystal, as well as helping some with keeping Iris away. -- These videos are not intended to be a speed run or perfect playthrough of the game. It's mainly just to demonstrate my techniques (which aren't really anything special) for completing the game with Zero. I mostly made this because I was bored, and because after hearing people talk about how hard this game is with Zero all the time, I figured it'd be convenient to have video demonstrations of how I do things handy. I usually tend to make excessively stupid mistakes as soon as I try to record anything, but I think these turned out decently. This is the original PlayStation (PS1) version of Mega Man X4, running on a PS2 connected to my PC. Record with Windows Movie Maker 2 in Windows XP SP2.

And here we have the fight with the General. My least favorite part of the game, mainly because it's just so tedious with Zero. This time wasn't too bad, though. I did fairly well for most of the battle, but I made a some sloppy mistakes at the end. As for getting to the boss, I don't usually try very hard to avoid damage there because I know there's a full life refill waiting for me at the end. And I'm lazy. -- These videos are not intended to be a speed run or perfect playthrough of the game.

Rematch with the first eight bosses. Dragoon is the boss I do worst at, but Raijingeki is helpful. I did a little better on some of them the second time around though, most notably taking down Beastie without receiving any damage. Which was partly just luck that he didn't use the Twin Slasher attack. Also beat Spider, Walrus, Peacock, and Stingray without taking damage, but those are pretty easy.. Should've done the same with Split Mushroom, but I made another stupid mistake in that one. -- These videos are not intended to be a speed run or perfect playthrough of the game.

Here we are at the final boss sequence. I hear people say this is very hard with Zero all the time, and I can never figure out why. I beat the first two forms without taking any damage, which isn't exactly anything special. I took some damage in the final part, most from that pesky yellow floating head that I often have trouble dodging. Sigma's gun toting form on the right side is ridiculously easy though, so long as you remember that Ryuenjin is once again your best friend. I was a little slow with the Sigma head form on the left side though, partly because I can never reliably do damage to him during his debris spitting attack without taking damage myself, so I usually just wait it out in the upper right corner. As for his other attack, Shippuuga is pretty useful while you're dashing away from the spikes. I also avoided using the "dash cancel" technique during this battle (and the entire playthrough). So yeah. Thus concludes my X4 playthrough with Zero. It was kinda fun to make, and hopefully someone out there struggling with Zero may benefit from it.

Here's another run at the final boss sequence of X4 with Zero, this time using the "dash cancel" technique to take down that head a little faster. Made a couple minor mistakes with my attacks, but no damage was received during the entire battle.
