Man, this game sucks

This game can call 1-800-BITE-ME.

- No sensible order to do stages in. No matter what you do, you'll be doing a ton of backtracking. There is a somewhat sensible boss order, but if you follow that you'll be doing even more backtracking.
- Upgrading your buster gives it this annoying "hitch" in the firing sequence
- Zero is a chore to use and you only get to use him for 5 seconds before you hit the next door. I could be through the whole sequence in the time it takes me to go into the menu, call him, listen to his little speech, and watch him beam down.
- The increased difficulty is done in a really lazy way, they just clustered more enemies in tighter spaces guaranteeing you'll get hit more, but then added more set health-ups to compensate.
- They didn't even try with the music.
- The armors control way shittier than in the first two games somehow. How is that possible?
- Unlike X1 and X2 it's a pain to do in one sitting, so having no save feature is really a damn annoyance.

Wait, Megaman X3 is considered rare now?

>out of box copies going for $200+

the fuck

I bought my copy for only $30 or $40 back in 2008. What's driving the price up so high?

Lets start with this one
