Dec 9, 2013Nonsensical, unnatural and laughable story accompanied with a gameplay that looks pretty but has lost all the previous essence. Mega Man is dead unless a total reboot.

Jul 11, 2020This was the first Mega Man game I played in my life. I loved this game for it's gameplay and mechanics, and this made me to try the old ones.

Oct 24, 2022worst Megaman game ever. Honestly, I don't like almost everything about it. Only thing I appreciate is soundtrack.

Eliminates some of the annoyances of its predecessor. However, while that's all well and good, X8 can still often be an intensely frustrating game, and still isn't especially fun.

And while the whole trial-and-error mechanic is enough to make you throw your controller down and never return, there's a rewarding feeling when you do finally win.

The story's dry as a bone, but that's not what you're playing Mega Man for anyway. The only truly glaring flaw: there are some lame 3D shooter sections, and while they aren't as frustrating (or prolific) as those in X7, surmounting them will still test your patience more than your ability with a joypad.
