Mega Man X2 Walkthrough

Return to Central Computer (Final Battle)
This is the same stage as Magna Centipede's stage! So for the walkthrough, refer to the first visit. The stage is the same until the boss. If you didn't get the Zero Parts, you'll face... ZERO! Zero is HARD. He fires charged and normal Z-Buster shots, slashes with his Z-Saber, does Z-Impact, where he slams his saber into the ground, which causes debris to spray. Worst of all, he blocks every weapon! He can only be hit when he fires his buster or has his back to the screen. You only need to depleat his energy column until he has 1 bar left, then you win. If you collected all the Zero Parts, there will be a black Zero instead, which Zero destroys. Either way, he'll destroy a section of the floor, and he tells X to go after Sigma, while he tries to destroy the Central Computer. Drop into the hole and when you hit the bottom, the fight with Sigma will begin. Sigma will somtimes dash at you, then slash with his claws. He'll also fire electric shots. They home in to where X is located. Luckily, they only need to lock on to X, so scatter the shots. It's best to stay away from Sigma and fire at him with charge shots. When he's low on health, he'll gain a new attack: Nightshade Electric Spark. This acts exactly like the Electric Spark's charge shot from Mega Man X1. Stay on the top to avoid this. When Sigma's defeated, it's not over yet. Sigma finally reveals his true form: the Sigma Virus. In this form, Sigma is a giant wireframe version of his head. You'll notice that this form of Sigma does not have a energy column, so this is more like a miniboss fight. There is, however, a way to find out how much health he has left: His color. When he's green, Sigma has eather full health or he has lost very little health. Sigma goes from green to light blue to dark blue to orange to red and finally to dark red. Sigma reflects almost all weapons, except for the Strike Chain and Level 3 or higher X-Buster shots. He'll use Viral Laser, where he fires a laser straight down. He also uses Viral Summon Shot, where he fires blue wireframe orbs that become eather Scrivers, Tiranoses, or Fisherns. When he's red dark red, he'll use his ultimate attack: Error and Delete. He'll appear on X and drain X's health. Don't give up when he uses this, just keep attacking him. Sigma takes 56 hits in his virus form. Now watch the ending.
