Here we have it the final Megaman X game and let me say I’m glad that this one was actually pretty good!

X8 returns to form being mainly a 2D game with a few 2.5D sections. Level design is pretty good there’s a few frustrating bits on there but at this point every X game has that. Having X, Zero and Axl available form the start is great and I liked that there’s now a money system that you use to buy a lot of your upgrades but you have to find some of those upgrades on the levels before you can buy them so exploration is till there.

Presentation wise it’s still pretty solid I do miss the sprite style of the earlier games but this one still looks good and the voice acting is pretty good too!

Top 3 Maverick Names!
3) Earthrock Trilobyte
2) Avalanche Yeti
1) Gigabolt Man-O-War

Overall playing all these games has been real fun and while some I’d wait awhile before I revisit most I’d love to play again!
