Progression in Episode[]
After a brief hiatus from the game, the gang returns to finish off Magna Centipede and continue their quest to defeat the X-Hunters for good. Starting off strong with Magna Centipede's stage which is a computer station that he is using to transmit the Maverick virus all over the world. After some brief banter about how Magna Centipede was essentially the I.T. guy of Sigma's army, X pulls some almost Solid Snake like moves and sneaks past the alarm to get the Heart Piece in the stage as well as some dashing skill to get the final Sub-Tank. Going through the computer station and having to fight a Mode Seven sword that slashes wildly at X, which proves not to be a big deal due to Bubble Splash being it's clear weakness. Tripping an alarm on the way down to Magna Centipede's lair as he faces a deformed face robot of a mini-boss but was game over'd by the deadliest enemy in the game, a moving box. Licking the wounds left by the box, X blazed through the station this time, kicked the box in the face and made it to Magna Centipede. Using the power of the Silk Shot to destroy Centipede's tail like appendage, he begins to teleport around the room to try and hit X with his body and some shuriken-like throwing stars. But unfortunately, Magna Centipede couldn't take X's Junk to his face and exploded. Gaining new grey and yellow armor coloration along with the long awaited, Magnet Mine ability. Completing the hunt for the Maverick robot masters, Dr. Cain calls X back to base to tell him that he's located the X-Hunter's base and thus begins the assault. Assaulting the base as he works his way inside but gets crushed thrice by wall pulling robots and once on a pair of spikes. Conquering his wall pulling robot enemies and finally making his way to fight Violen once more. Taking a brief moment to remember what the weakness was then it came to him, Bubbles! Using the Bubble Splash to take down the hulking ape-like reploid by making his circuits fry. Lesson learned kids, Ape-Like robots hate bubbles.

Jirard:[]
- Jirard's dad owns a gas station in Santa Monica blvd in L.A. where apparently they filmed part of the movie "Species" there.
- In Megaman X, if you defeat Chill Penguin before Flame Mammoth, Mammoth's stage becomes easier due to lava being cooled. The same goes with Spark Mandrill's stage if you defeat Storm Eagle which disables electric currents on the earlier floors.
