I like Megaman X1 and X2 better, but this honestly is one of my favorite Megaman X games. I know they overdid it with the spikes but I loved the difficulty of this game. Shitty gimmick levels aside I thought it was a solid end to the series.

Damn shame MMX: CM came to a close without a chance, I really liked it too albeit not more than X8. It was pretty damn short, but I imagine Capcom had a low budget on the game to begin with. With that in mind, they REALLY used all their money well as the game looked amazing.

>>342409240

Why do you dislike X8 as much as X7? I know the graphics were a bit of a downgrade, but I digged most of the stages and boss fights.

If X5 was the last my 12 year old self would have been utterly disappointed with Capcom.

>>342405998
X8 feels like, or rather was everything X7 should have been all along. Maybe what it was going be. An experimental leap from the 5th to 6th generation, while still keeping true to its roots. If it really had come after X6, I don't doubt it would have been far more successful.

A shame that's not what it was, and thus fell victim to X7's reception, as it came too soon, and still wouldn't let go of poor aspects its predecessor had (3D stages, for one).

It's a shame, really. It's a good game all in all, and an X9 following in its footsteps could very well have been the perfect X game.

Most of its songs are too quiet, anonymous and pack no punch, which is also why the final stages hit me like a truck. Out of nowhere the music was pumped up to 11, starting with the Jakob Elevator theme.

But I can't call it the best soundtrack in the series, because it's overall just not that great. Some tunes are great, but it's as you get to the end of the game that the soundtrack really shines, and there's a lot of game before that point. But I can give it credit for having the best porn track of the series

X2 is just a rushed X1 that does everything worse. I really can't see how people can hold it in such high regard. X4 isn't the best game ever either, but they actually spent some time on it, and it shows.

The intro stage is horrible design-wise, it introduced Zero being hamfisted in everything, it introduced bike stages, the level design is poor (especially the Sigma stages, with one of the most boring Sigma fights in the series), bosses are some of the most forgettable in the series, and fuck me, aside from intro stage and credits theme, the soundtrack is legitimately ass.

It's not a terrible game, and I liked the X-Hunter fights, but it's just more of the same, except worse. No wonder, considering it took less than a year to make and release, and was probably just a product of Capcom pumping out a sequel as fast as possible to cash in from the unexpected success of the first X.

x4 is terrible

tiny as fuck stages, most of X's weapons and even his armor upgrades are pointless compared to just spamming charge shot (a problem a lot of megaman games have), meanwhile zero is broken as fuck and beats everything by jumping and spinning

the only appeal are the visuals/music because it was a fancy PS1 game and they put a lot of effort in but as an actual game it's way inferior to X1

It makes me sad when I go to an old Megaman forum and the megaman discussion is dead...

>>342413797
ok I will explain why i thought x8 was such a terrible game.

>Music
First off the music is completely forgettable, megaman is usually known for its music. However X8 has no stand out tracks, it's all generic background noise. Of course this one is subjective which is why i listed it first and least important.

>Controls
controls are god awful, the characters feel like "floaty rocks" You ascend quickly float briefly then drop like a 100 ton rock. Wall climbing is very janky and broken feeling, you never feel in control with this due to bad physics. This game can just randomly decide it wont register you landing on the wall and you just fall your death. Physics are very poorly programmed.

>Stages
The worst part, every single stage of the game is a gimmick, EVERY SINGLE ONE. Not one second of this game is played without some hamfisted gimmick. In other X games, if you were good you could dash through the stages with accuracy and efficiency while destroying enemies or dodging them. Knowing the stages and getting good at the movements to have a fast and efficient run was very rewarding. There's no such thing in X8, its constantly stopping you for forced fights or gimmicks, half the stages are fucking autoscrollers. In X1-4 the difference between and expert player and a shitty player could mean a difference of minutes in completing a stage. In X8 provided neither player dies the difference could only possible be at best a few seconds. It does not reward you for good play. In other games you could run through the stage your own way in X8 your are forced to play their way. Everytime you play the game is exactly the same it has no replay ability.

>weapons
the maverick weapons in this are absolutely worthless. the charged buster is vastly superior in every way in every situation. The only use for weapons would be for the maverick bosses. Even then buster is just as good. Using the maverick weapons would actually only be handicapping yourself

I blame Legends babies

Several of the sub franchises have been dead for years.

Legends 3 fiasco happens and now all Mega Man discussion needs to be focused on how shit Capcom is and how great Legends 3 would have been.

The fanbase is entirely cynical now too. If Capcom announces anything that isn't Mega Man, they go in an uproar. If they announce new Mega Man merchandise, they go in an uproar.

Hell, the comics being cancelled because Archie is completely incompetent caused them to go in an uproar and blame Capcom for it.

I bet that if Capcom announces a brand new AAA Mega Man game, they'll go in an uproar too.

Except the controls in X8 are unironically some of the best in the series. They are the very definition of tight. It's where the game really shines, in how incredibly in-control you feel over every movement.

I doubt you've even played the game. Sounds like you just watched some Youtube LP, read the Metacritic reviews, and ultimately thought of yourself as some kind of connoisseur. "Floaty" my ass.

pc version lets you change music tracks, you can tag/dash/jump cancel everything like a DMC game making it have the best movement, and "charge buster is better then special weapons" applies way more to games like X4 then X8 because in this game most of them are broken as hell

you say the game has no replay value because it doesn't let you autistcally speedrun, but you ignore the fact that this game has ranks, multiple characters and playstyles, actually hard combat (especially if you play on hard and don't buy HP upgrades) and lots of hidden powerups in the stages

you have tons of replay value without having to memorize enemy patterns like a sperglord

its more the fact that theres just not much more to talk about. things have been discussed to death, interviews and sourcebook translations have filled ind etails we didnt have before, and there just hasnt been any new real megaman game to drum up interest.

I mean, the X series got games up till like 2004 or so, so during that time, and for a few years after, (while the Zero series was being made, which was very much a sequel to the X series) there was both X, Zero, and even classic discussion, since Zero and X tie into it one way or another. Although Classic discussion definitely peaked around the turn of the millennium since the last classic game had been in the late 90's.

Not him, but the game did have 4 boss stages dedicated to auto scrolling gimmicks. It was a bit too much.

Burn Rooster
Giga-o-Volt Man-o-War

At the very least, Burn Rooster had a platforming segment inbetween the auto scrolling

As much as I generally hate 2.5D, I thought it was done pretty well in X8 and MHX. Sprites are neat, but it was an age where 3D dominated the market.
>>
>>342421650

Eh, 4 had the best visuals due to the biggest budget. X6 was a lot darker and less animated than the other two. You can feel the "we need this game by Christmas".

Still, I adore the style and Gate, and that soundtrack is killer. The only real fuck up was Zero's return. "I hid myself to repair myself"? Come on! You have a reploid scientist who has been resurrecting dead Reploids and turning them Maverick! Why couldn't have Gate brought him back and used him to "analyze" X? Or hell, even Metal Shark Player, since he can apparently also bring back reploids.

The only bad part about X6 was it's missed opportunity of a plot.
>>
>>342422494
man o war and yeti aren't really autoscrolling, they're vehicle segments

man o war is awful but the yeti one was pretty fun, I liked how each character had a different attack type on the bike

the auto-scrolling in the other two is fine because you have so much mobility in this game, I found them way more engaging then most levels in other X games where you just walk to the right and shoot robots and occasionaly dash jump over a pit, so many X levels in the post snes games are lazy as fuck that the gimmicks made them stand out more in x8

It's strongly implied isoc/Wily repaired him much like Dr. Lights mysterious ghost repaired X at the end of X5.

the translation fucks it up horribly though.

IIRC, in the original japanese script, when X exclaims that Zero is alive, and questions it, Zero turns it back on him with something along the lines of "so are you, X." Zero later admits, (and this IS in the translation, at least) to one of Dr Light's capsules, that he doesnt know who repaired him, and asks the Light Hologram if he knows, or if he did it.

X6 was very poorly translated and even more poorly edited.

The PSP was doing well at the time and didn't have horrible specs, so it made sense. No matter what system it had ended up on, it would have flopped. Not because it was bad, but because there was simply too much Mega Man going on. What killed Mega Man was the series itself, as there was simply too much by the mid 2000's.

But it was. Above average, at least. There's a general simplicity going through it, but it still has a certain impact. Just like in the original Mega Man games, you have simple character models and high detail backrounds/surroundings. Except X had some very detailed enemies too.
