I can honestly say a few things about each of the Mavericks in X8. Gravity Antonion: He's not a bad guy, he didn't seem like someone you'd want to fight. Dark Mantis: This is no trick, it's true power, and also, he's the Reploid to surpass metal gear. Gigabolt Man-O-War: he seemed like someone who didn't know he was doing something illegal. Bamboo: I'm sorry, but I'm going to agree with QG, the weapons are not worth it. Optic Sunflower: Not worth it because of it trying to knock off Rekkoha, so, Please tell me where the flame thrower is. Cutman: did optic Sunflower hide a NES along with a PSP and the Saturn's MM8 in the same room as his Capsule? Trilobyte: he seems too far gone to be reasoned with. Burn Rooster: oh, there's the flamethrower but, A mercenary? Please learn that sometimes payment isn't worth the deed your commiting! Avalanche Yeti: Wait, Tengu Man is that you!? Oh wait,. Never mind, the nose looked familiar. Copy Sigma: Oh Look, A Faker! Actual Sigma: Wow, New look Sigma, shame it's gonna get ruined. Lumine: Traitor
22:51 OH MY GOD! SOMEBODY ACTUALLY PICKED UP A RARE METAL WITH LAYER AS YOUR NAVIGATOR! True story way back when in the previous decade I was browsing for videos where somebody has Layer as their navigator and pick up a rare metal during the stage. Literally nobody was playing with her as the navigator when they played through the level they never picked it up and if they did it was either with Pallete, Alia or nobody as the navigator. I watched dozens of videos and never saw a video with that moment.
internet comment: i bet all of you can't beat megaman x8 on hard mode without rookie hunter mode on me: CHALLENGE ACCEPTED! (dies 4657 times) edit: to clarify, i did enter a random 4 digit number, it wasn't a specific number at all in anyway
2:28:26 It’s kinda like the reversed roles version of vile beating x in Maverick hunter x in the beginning stage because x asks the same exact question zero did in maverick hunter x
@@RoYALHadoudo yeah, but like, i passed most time playing x8, it was my first (and the only one that i still have) megaman x game for ps2, i just love this one
Yeah, Layer, it maybe a little bit of a challenge to get Zero interested in you... Let's just say, he's been through a tough experience since the 4th incident caused by Sigma...
I love how Alia hints at the plot twist of Sigma not being the final boss in this game when she says “It’s obvious that Sigmas involved, but things are bound to be different this time.” I don’t know how I didn’t notice it before getting the shock of fighting Lumine.
@@amso7169 nah X4 had the tightest controls and design was more responsive. THat's why it felt easier - plus we got to play as my man Zero for the first time by himself
I still think that the original X is the easiest yet fun. X4 is hard as Zero but more forgiving. X5 is okay and has some charm with me especially since we can duck. X2 & X3 are "just another sequel" for me. X6 & X7 are forgettable. X8 has the highest replayability because its new game plus & parts system, and I also like the idea of having 2 characters in a stage alternatively. If only Capcom were willing to produce X9, they should bring back many elements from X8, such as the neutral armor, 2 characters system, option to turn off navigation, rare metal & its parts purchase system, ranking system that makes sense (unlike in X5), and the ability to get all maximum enhancement for each characters without any cheat (ultimate armor X, black Zero, white Axl) For ultimate armor mechanic and how Zero handles his saber or poses a thumbs up after defeating the boss, let's stick with X4 & X5. Or probably hadouken from X1 & shoryuken from X2 should be back? Anyway, today is October 6th 2023
My ultrawide 21:9 monitor wants me to throw him in the garbage after trying to play this game ahah - ive got black bars on the sides cus Switch is maxed at 1080p AND the dumb artwork bars in the game on the inside of those black bars ( playing on Switch )
To use this move, the Hunters must chalk up combo hits to fill up the Attack Gauge (the energy color when filling the Attack Gauge is green) or collect Attack Gauge refills (usually during mini-boss stages). Once the Attack Gauge is completely filled up, the primary Hunter will ignite in flames and the color of the energy in the Attack Gauge changes to pink and flashes, signaling the Double Attack move is ready to be activated.
I just beat the game today! This was one of my childhood games! And let me tell ya, on normal I thought, (Cool, I beat the game. No big deal..), to come across hard mode and to my surprise back then, once I saw there was more after Sigma.. Lmao, I told my bro and he said, "What?! I thought you..?" Me: "I know lol, I have to play a new game.😅😂" Of course didn't have time like that years ago, but it feels awesome to say I did it! 😎 Thank you for your video btw, it was a great help at the near end! 😄👍Truly one of the greatest Megaman games ever!
XavierClanck [Clanck12] I already know how but at my normal levels vile I get maximum 3 times and for more that I enter levels I do not get the fourth and I enter the level of jakob and I defeat it but I do not skip the achievement
Also, in the Japanese Release, Lumine WAS portrayed as a Female character. Lumine would've been the first female-lead villain. For whatever reason, in the English release, they had Lumine as a Boy
Is there a reason why no special metals , character chips or zero weapon upgrades don’t show up in my game? I’ve followed the guides online where to find them and do everything properly but nothing shows up. I know I haven’t got them already according to the save screen/chip screen. I’ve yet to see a special medal hovering where it should be. Any ideas? Does it depend on which mode you play?
Easy: You'll have a bundle of chips already developed, and there won't be any Rare Metals to find. Many chips won't ever be available to develop. Enemies and mini-bosses (including the Crab Mechaniloid) are much weaker with respect to Normal mode. Can't fight Cut Man in Optic Sunflower's stage. Can't unlock the Ultimate Armor, Zero's Black Armor, Axl's White Armor or the Σ Blade through selecting New Game +. Unlimited retries. Bosses won't use Overdrives. The game will end upon defeating (final) Sigma, with a teaser after the credits of the final battle against Lumine. Can't bring developed chips into a New Game + session. Normal: Start with no chips developed. Maximum of five retries. All enemies are at standard health and attack level. Hard: Watch extra cutscenes after the final Vile battle and during the final Sigma battle. Less maximum life and weapon energy. Maximum of three retries. Bosses will engage their Overdrives with half their health lost. Enemies exhibit stronger attacks and defense (such as the floating turrets shooting beams rather than small energy balls). The final three bosses have health bars just under the entire width of the screen.
XavierClanck oh wow I didn’t know that at all, I don’t think I came across this in the previous games of the legacy collection. That’s why I was confused then. Thanks for the reply
"oh well, you'll find out soon enough"
15 years later
?
@@LockeLynx That's a joke about the fact that there is no X9...yet.
Maybe next year in 2022
😩

This is truly my fav megaman game, when i get Legacy Collection 2, i'll be the happiest thing alive
Did u play Megaman x4 and x5 and x6. Those were good.
@@RoYALHadoudo yeah, but like, i passed most time playing x8, it was my first (and the only one that i still have) megaman x game for ps2, i just love this one
Sorry to say I thought this game was kinda wack. I didn’t like the change after x6. I liked those x games as much as the way you like this one

WELCOME BACK

Havent seen you in ages
2021..
Yeah, still love the series..
Yeah, Layer, it maybe a little bit of a challenge to get Zero interested in you...
Let's just say, he's been through a tough experience since the 4th incident caused by Sigma...
Fun Fact, Zero's English Voice Actor actually married the Voice Actor for Marino from Command Mission. No joke!
Besides, he's still sore over Iris.
@@LockeLynx which one?
Cause I know Jonny Young Bosch voiced Zero at one point
@@Iron8127 from X8, Command Mission, and the Maverick Hunter X PSP.

I love how Alia hints at the plot twist of Sigma not being the final boss in this game when she says “It’s obvious that Sigmas involved, but things are bound to be different this time.” I don’t know how I didn’t notice it before getting the shock of fighting Lumine.
The Easiest megamanx of all and my favorite megamanx game 😂
It’s the 2nd hardest! Easiest is hands down X4

I like that Starforce 3 uses the menu sounds from X8

Love the Megaman X series
How is X8 affected by Rookie Hunter Mode? Can you only fight Sigma?
I never tried that mode, sorry
I still have the original PlayStation 2 version of Mega Man X8.
How can I perform the giga attack combo with the two choosen characters?
To use this move, the Hunters must chalk up combo hits to fill up the Attack Gauge (the energy color when filling the Attack Gauge is green) or collect Attack Gauge refills (usually during mini-boss stages). Once the Attack Gauge is completely filled up, the primary Hunter will ignite in flames and the color of the energy in the Attack Gauge changes to pink and flashes, signaling the Double Attack move is ready to be activated.
@@XavierClanck I see. And once my gauge is full, wich buttons should I press in order to execute it?
@@Opre010 V (Keyboard) - R2 (PS) - RT (Xbox) - ZR (Switch)
@@XavierClanck thank you!
I wish there was a x9 and x10 and x11
The war is over so maybe not
Yeah me too....😔
Loved the megaman X saga tho
I heard X9 might come out next year in 2022
There's no unlimited metal glitch here?😂

@@destroyerofworlds4663 which Sonic game are you referencing?
@@LockeLynx I'm not referencing a game, I'm saying the characters say that a lot
I heard that Mega Man X8 on PS2 has crappy gameplay. Has it been improved here?
I wish this game was redubbed for the remastered collection of the entire Mega Man X series.
Why the voices are perfect already
@@xetchrono2034 i was just wondering about it.
That's all.
@@xetchrono2034 I thought this game is getting redubbed, just like some video games.
Only if the voice actors were the same as Megaman 8. “DR WAHWE!!”

X8 stage is beautiful ❤️
Why is lumine designed to look so feminine
He's based off angels from the bible which were genderless, so he's meant to look androgynous
Also, in the Japanese Release, Lumine WAS portrayed as a Female character. Lumine would've been the first female-lead villain. For whatever reason, in the English release, they had Lumine as a Boy
@@LockeLynx Source? I've never heard anything about this
I'm surprised I haven't played this I played X5 6 and 7 but not 8 or the earlier ones on NES/SNES
When I saw "Prickle Barrier," I literally thought that it said, "Pickle Barrier."

Mega Man go hard bruh..
Actually good

This game just doesn't look great with 'modern' graphics. The classic graphics were better
