Topic	Is Mega Man 8 the worst one?
PrsdntHeidecker 01/04/22 5:29:41 PM #1:	I want to love it because it's such a time capsule of a game. Amazing graphics for a Mega Man game. This actually betrays the underlying 8 bit feel that's inherent of Mega Man, but Capcom didn't KNOW that yet and was experimenting with how to progress with the series. Some of the enemy animations are really impressive using this technology, and all of the robot masters have a pretty cool design. The full anime cut scenes are also a reminder of things the PSX would do to show off a CD drive over console gaming. The awful voice acting only calls back to this age of the original Resident Evil. Metal Gear Solid hadn't introduced competent voice acting yet. The level design seems weak though. Multiple levels are total gimmicks with obligated vehicles and minimal real platforming. I guess Megaman X did this too, but it feels abundant here. Haven't beaten it yet. I have one final robot master left to defeat IIRC. Curious if Wily's Castle will be memorable and well designed. I'm currently playing some maze level with disappearing platforms I'm not a huge fan of. --- Hanananananana! This country's yours and mine. It's the home of the brave and the free.
