You didn't miss much. The Zero series just FURTHER made the Megaman timeline completely screwed up, and they're near-impossible difficultywise.
As for X's voice, it did completely and totally suck in X4. It wasn't that great in X5 either. In X6, Capcom left the original Japanese voices in, so X's voice was actually good in that one (though whether they did it because it sounded better of to conserve money on a dying franchise is anyone's guess).
His voice in X7 wasn't bad, but his dialogue was lame (yelling "Stop it!" every time he blasts a Maverick to spare parts IS pretty amusing though).
Fortunately, his voice in Command Mission and X8 is a very good voice, almost on par with his Japanese counterpart, I would say.
