a new genre has born : 1-hit-kill spike trap avoiding game

User Rating: 4.8 | RockMan X8 PC

Graphics : well the last megaman game I played was Megaman Zero on GBA and X4 on SS so I really don't know if the graphic of X8 is good or not. But personally I think the characters looks kinda weird in form of 3D....

Sounds : the developers are lazy. There wasn't much change of sound compare to X4 except the soundtracks. And that voice shouting boss's name is hilarious(might cause of the strange translation of boss name though...)

Gameplay : good-old megaman style with some dumb boss and LOTS, LOTS OF SPIKE TRAPS.
Getting spiked to death must be the most frustrating part of the whole game.

But if your reflex and skills surpass these evil spikes, or you're a big fan of Megaman, then you might enjoy playing through the game a few more times to unlock stuffs like armor, weapon, upgrades or even the 3 operator to play (though they are just the same as X, Zero and Axl with a different voice, model and lower stats...)
