This game is amazing! It is a GBC port of 2 classic SNES games. It's amazing how you can put this all from the Super NES onto a Game boy color*. When you first play the game, there are four bosses: Chill penguin, Storm eagle, Flame stag, and Spark mandrill. When you beat these Bosses + 4 SIGMA levels, you unlock Hard mode.It won't be easy. (Don't beleive the game, Hard mode is actually EASIER than Normal mode.) In hard mode, you fight these guys: Wheel gator, Armored armadillo, Morph moth, Magna centipede. Oh, and watch out for zain and geemel, THEY'RE BIG TROUBLE without all 4 armor upgrades. Also, there's an attack of every color: Shotgun Ice[Light blue], Storm Tornado[Lavender], Speed burner[Red], Electric Spark[Yellow], Spin Wheel[Green], Rolling Shield[Orange], Silk Shot[Gray], and Magnet Mine[Blue].

**This game works on the original Game Boy.

This game is basicly like megamanX1 and 2. Its very fun its got the same first level as X1 and the same last level boss to. but you cant be zero but oh well. hes not the greatest person in the world. this game has lost of challenges. also its got the same classic music and gaffics as X1. This is harder then X5 to tell everyone the truth. Lots of games are easyer then that game. anyway my final words are THIS GAME IS GREAT SO BUY IT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In early 2000, Capcom finally decided to give its popular Mega Man X series a game on a portable system - the Game Boy Color. The game that was born was Mega Man Xtreme, which featured levels from X and X2 on the Super Nintendo. Read on to see how this game measures up.

PROS:
-Finally, a portable Mega Man X game! I'm sure fans everywhere had been waiting for one.
-The game allows you to save your progress in a stage - even if the system is turned off!
-There are three different play modes - Normal, Hard, and Xtreme.

CONS:
-The game is just a port of SNES Mega Man X levels! What a rip!
-The graphics really take a hit. X looks way too SD (for those of you not familiar with anime terms, SD means Super Deformed, meaning the character takes on a "head too big for body" sort of look.)
-The controls flat out bite, since you have to tap forward twice to slide (you don't have a third button to do it with.)
-You open the options menu with Select, not Start.
-Your character often changes the direction he is facing when he gets hit - this is so annoying!

OVERALL:
Stick with the classic series Mega Man Game Boy games. Porting the X series to the Game Boy was a good enough idea, Capcom just couldn't pull it off as well as we'd all hoped. This is for MEGA MAN DIE-HARDS AND COMPLETISTS ONLY.

Mega Man Xtreme is a game worth buying. The graphics are more three-dimensional than other Mega Man games. There are also plenty of levels and bosses to keep you busy. But don't think that you can finish this game in a few days. It took me almost five months to beat.
