After the mess of new ideas that was Mega Man X7, it's amazing that X8 can go back to the basics and seem completely fresh by not doing anything new.
The best original Mega Man game since the days of Sega Saturn. [Jan 2005, p.56]

After what felt like years of waiting, I finally got to play an amazing Mega Man X game! It's funny because this game draws from all the failures of X5-X7 and makes them work extremely well, not to mention the problems I had with Mega Man X games. You still have parts to collect, but for the most part any important items or upgrades can be bought as long as you have the money, and with the way the contunie system works, it feels just different enough from the usual Mega Man fair. Oddly enough, this is the first Mega Man X game to feel like it actually has an identity, and I'm shocked how main extra unlockables there are in this game! If there is any Mega Man X you should play, it's this one.

If you loved "Mega Man X7" and thought it was one of the best action games of last year then Mega Man X8 will probably grant you eternal life.
The story's dry as a bone, but that's not what you're playing Mega Man for anyway. The only truly glaring flaw: there are some lame 3D shooter sections, and while they aren't as frustrating (or prolific) as those in X7, surmounting them will still test your patience more than your ability with a joypad.
Eliminates some of the annoyances of its predecessor. However, while that's all well and good, X8 can still often be an intensely frustrating game, and still isn't especially fun.
Maybe our blue buddy needs to take a breather for a little while, replace his outdated circuitry, and make another run in a few years' time.
Tal vez no sea tan icónico como los juegos clásicos, pero hay que reconocer que es un juego excelente, el mejor de la saga en mucho tiempo, en historia no supera al x5 pero en todos los aspectos en general se queda en la cima tanto por su diseño de niveles, rejugabilidad, dificultad altísima pero no rota, mecánicas, etc. Lo único que no me agradó tanto es que los desbloqueables son muy costosos y requerirán varias partidas y constante farmeo para poder adquirirlos.

Mega Man X8 is okay but it is flawed still. The gameplay is now getting stall and the graphics are meh. The controls are mediocre. So this game is just okay. Not that special.

Nonsensical, unnatural and laughable story accompanied with a gameplay that looks pretty but has lost all the previous essence. Mega Man is dead unless a total reboot.

worst Megaman game ever. Honestly, I don't like almost everything about it. Only thing I appreciate is soundtrack.

Summary Starring Mega Man and allies Zero and Axl, the eighth "X" saga is an all new action-adventure packed with more features, depth and variety than the series has ever seen. Your quest begins with war-torn Earth, left in shambles after the fall-out of Sigma's war on the planet. Humankind, planning a mass exodus to the moon, has been mass-pro...
