Mega Man X8
|
Player's Review
Platformer by Capcom.
Follow a blue robit, a red robit, and a black robit as they investigate a buncha bad robits that want to do space things.
Gameplay is the usual Mega Man X thing: go in a stage, shoot things, collect a power-up here and there, beat a boss, get their weapon, figure out the next boss who is weak to said weapon. Unlike the disasterous X7, there's no janky 3D mode (ALL 2D!...except rider levels, but those are okay) and the game, in my opinion, is actually good. Of course, it has its own problems (a few questionable stage designs for one, but X6 is the KING of overall bad stage designs). Also unlike X7, Axl is actually plays different from X (X7: both shared the same boss weapon and Axl sometimes get a different weapon. X was more busted than Axl. X8: X is same ol' X. Axl gets a variety of different weapons!)
This longplay mashes dash on a clean save on Normal difficulty for 100% in stages while getting hit and dying because I am horrible at this game. Codes, which just unlock things, are entered but not taken advantage of (for example, unlocking Ultimate Armor and not using it). I also unlock almost all intermissions. Only one not unlocked is Troia Base, but it is a boss rush and only on NG+. I also show the underflow max metals glitch before the last stage but do not take advantage of it.
