Fuck it, I'll defend megaman 8. I like that they try to fuck with the formula, and it looks amazing. the robot master design is fun, and a lot of the stage design is pretty good, the best in a while for the series. The soccer ball is goofy and fun, and it's nice to see them take any sort of risk with the series.
That being said.......the on rails driving segments are awfule. JUMP JUMP SLIDE haunts my nightmares.

The game is one of the weakest classic megaman entries by quite a lot, tengu man and clown man have very fun stages and design but beyond those 2 the game falls apart pretty hard.
The difficulty is nothing to write home about as health and weapon refills rain on you with some not-so-clever level design that can feel unfair or plain.
I wouldn't recommend people to play this game if they haven't but I also wouldn't recommend against it, it's just extremely mid.

There are some meanies out there saying this game is bad. Don't listen to them! Sure, it has issues, some pretty big, but there's tons to love. For one, I don't think there's a more charming looking Mega Man game than this. The soundtrack is also one of the most unique in the series, it's not as energetic as the NES games, but it's so mellow. It goes hand in hand with the visuals.
The special weapons are very good, and the level design actually takes advantage of them this time.
I guess its biggest issue is that it doesn't feel as tight as the NES games, but hey, neither does Mega Man 7 and people love that game.

EL MEJOR JUEGO DE MEGAMAN SIIIIIIIIIIIII CHUPENME LA PIJA ES DE LO MEJOR DOCTAH WAWIE lml
No entiendo el odio al juego enserio, tanto te joden cinematicas que podes sacar con oprimir un boton?
los niveles son variados y eso que repiten tematicas pero tienen mecanicas muy unicas en un juego de megaman, los graficos son los mejores en un juego de mega man, las armas son bien utiles, los jefes geniales (menos por el primero de los niveles de wily) pero bueno quizas es porque es mi juego favorito de la franquicia y se la re chupo pero si merece una oportunidad nose dejen llevar por webadas que exageran como las voces o el mal "gameplay" cuando este lo pule increiblemente

Despite some levels being too long, and Wily Stage I, Mega Man 8 is a pretty nice game. It isn’t as good as some of the other games in the series but it certainly isn’t terrible. Everything is quite doable and in the end it’s a fun ride, and only remembered perhaps by its terrible voice acting.
I'm not sure if it's just me, but I feel as if 8 was kinda underrated, especially since so many people were left soured by 7. Not much to say here except the same I said for 6. Great stages, weapons, and music. Honestly one of the more brutal Wily Castle's in my opinion, as well.

Came into this game with low expectations and not gonna lie, I sorta dug this game. It was pretty fun.
Art here was pretty good albeit a bit too colorful for my taste and the music here might be my favorite in the series so far especially with Aqua Man's stage and the stage select. The gameplay is definitely different here with the focus on gimmicks for some of the stages and they are hit or miss for me here. I would definitely say the stages are longer and albeit a bit easier with continues in each stage even if you run out of lives. Only thing to counteract this is that there are no more tanks other than using Rush to summon items when you need it once.
I think the game at its worst is Wily 1 where it takes the snowboarding segment from the Frost Man stage and made it extremely difficult. I also wasn't too fond of Astro Man's stage with the platforms and the overall design of the stages itself. The voice acting here is the most infamous part of this game and I didn't even mind it that much since it just oozes 90's anime dub charm to me.
It's definitely different from the other Mega Man games but it's still a solid experience that gets a lot more flak than I think it deserves. The voice acting does make it a product of its time in one way or another sadly.

Probably one of my favourite Mega Man games so far, Mega Man 8 has got to be my favourite sprite style for the series and I wish Mega Man 9 and 10 kept this style.
The upgrades that Mega Man can buy now are useful and it’s nice having a simple plot with cutscenes. (Even though the English Dub is laughably bad).
