    Correction a Man-O-War isn't a jellyfish it's actually a Physaliidae, meaning it's basically a colony of smaller organisms that work together for survival. Seriously they're individual organisms but can't survive outside of the colony and they each make up different systems and aspects of the colony that make it act like one large organism, for example certain groups of organisms work on digestion, certain groups on hunting, ect ect... It's actually a fascinating species. Also it's stings reportedly are insanely painful, and in some cases can even kill people.

    X8 was always a personal favorite of mine. I dunno, maybe seeing Mega Man X in 3D Graphics and having it not suck was such an amazing concept to me back in the day. I admit today that it has some problems, namely the Rare Metals you gotta find using Pallet as your Navigator. She doesn't tell you about the Rare Metals you need to use Crystal Wall to grab, so to this day I'm still wondering how folks are supposed to pick them up without a guide. However I think that the addition of a New Game Plus is what still has me come back to this game every couple years or so to this day.

    The timing for that Zero shout was so perfect. Glad I had my cup of coffee on the table, otherwise I'd be typing the common cliche inbetween wet napkins about now...
    Btw, the new navigators clearly were a counterpart for the main protagonist. What with Alia being level-headed and all about work like X, Layer was more mature (takes a mature lady to be able to pull an underboob as gracefully as she does) and somber like Zero, while Palette was all cheery and easy-going kinda like Axl. It was a nice detail and it got me hoping this further character development would result in them playing a bigger role in a future game, maybe?
    Too bad the fact you can unlock the navigators to basically play a pallete-swap, and at an atrocious expensive cost no less, makes you think if any plan for future navigators spinoff were cut short and just added into the padding pile...

  • @metalmario991
    @metalmario991 6 років тому +52

    Metal Farming is a lot easier in the American PS2 version, as there's a glitch that gets you max metals. Make sure you have a Life Tank and make sure it's not full. Have less then 50 metals, I know it works if you have 40. Buy the Life Charge, and your metal total should go to 0. Go into any stage and grab a metal, your counter should count up all the way to 999999. I'm guessing someone didn't add a check to see if you actually had enough metals to buy the Life Charge. I did this, and it makes buying everything real easy. Unfortunately, they fixed this in the Japanese PS2 release and PC version. This is why it cannot be done in the Legacy Collection, as the version of X8 in there is based on the PC release.

    The whole thing with the New Generation Reploids was that they could go Maverick at will.

      Exactly. Infected Reploids rebel because the virus makes them crazy with a couple of exceptions (Storm Eagle by subjugation, Vile due to faulty circuits), while NGR simply agree with Sigma without anything in between.
      Sigma claiming they were his children was only a half-right truth. NGR planned to carry his ideals on evolution... but that doesn't mean they needed him around for that. He was just a convenience to them.

    X8 is definitely my favorite in the series. Each level is unique with its own gimmick, and all of them are SO GOOD! The metals are a great addition as well, being super satisfying to collect. Also, the Neutral Armor is definitely one of, if not, THE BEST armor in the series. The R&D lab is awesome for upgrades that feel useful, the special weapons are solid, the Maverick boss patterns are actually competent, the duo character mechanic is awesome, and Lumine is an AWESOME final boss (not to mention his music is just beautiful). I know I gushed a lot about this game, but I can't help it. It's one of my favorite platformers that tends to be overlooked.

    I've only played X8 once, but after playing X6 and seeing X7, this felt like a good refresh for the series. I appreciate the changes it made while going back to what works. It was the last X game, but not because it was a bad game.

  • @Kisaru1000
    @Kisaru1000 6 років тому +32

    I sorta wonder if/when they finally make X9, are they actually going to follow up on any of the dangling plot-things left in X8? You got that ominous warning from Lumine because of the loads of next-gen reploids still running around, with an end message talking about how they are *still* being produced despite what happened. And of course there's the whole "what did Lumine do to Axl" cliffhanger that was teased with his ending after the credits, and his Ultimate Armor being Lumine's colors. Or... will X9 just ignore all this because it's been 15 years and they'll just do something different? Will Axl even be playable outside of DLC? Hell, will *Zero* even be playable outside of DLC? I don't know. At the very least I just hope X9 isn't some kind of nostalgia cashgrab with 16bit/32bit graphics.

    • @dragmundis

      Starscream91 I sure hope so. Proto Man and Bass weren’t playable in Mega Man 11 though, so I have a reason to be skeptical. Although Proto Man and Bass were always considered extras and were never core parts of the gameplay unlike Zero and Axl, so I do think it’s fairly likely that both will come back in a potential X9.

    • @Codeninja676
      @Codeninja676 6 років тому +13

      The Maverick stigma was explored deeper in Megaman Zero and ZX and it turns out that Mavericks don't have to be infected to be considered Mavericks they just have to not obey humans or intentionally/unintentionally hurt/kill humans so if a reploid accidentally hit/killed a human they would be considered a Maverick and murdered on the spot, Sigma made a case for this fact in a couple of game although he does indeed get corrupted by a Virus so he's an extreme example of a Maverick one which actually tries his hardest to murder humans and their protectors, however most other "mavericks" are just Reploids that: disobeyed their human masters, hurt/killed a human in self defense or accidentally hurt/killed a human.
      In the Megaman Zero games you are actively fighting against humans because of the amount of atrocities they committed or forced their reploid subordinates to commit under the guise of maverick hunting.
      And in ZX we see a conclusion of Zero's sacrifice with everyone human and reploid being essentially the same with humans getting cybernetic implants at birth to match Reploids and Reploids being more human by their bodies being built in such a way that they age,grow and die like humans.(The humans getting cybernetic implants however is unclear how it works since it only started getting explored the second game but the series was cancelled before the third game)

      I mean, all the next-gen reploids are Sigma's "children", they have a part of Sigma in them, and depending on how you interpret things, they *are* Sigma. So it's basically someone asking "am I really crazy though?" which... yeah, generally insane people don't see themselves as being insane, so there's that :p

    • @1slayer959
      @1slayer959 6 років тому +5

      True but the story keeps going on about how the new reploids can choose to go maveric.
      Meanwhile they have the code of the big daddy of all maverics in them. So how can they even choose.
      It is especially obvious that all that nonsense about choosing to go maveric is nonsense considering so many of them who happened to be part sigma "chose" to go maveric

    • @Kisaru1000
      @Kisaru1000 6 років тому +5

      Well that's mostly just the series fault with "Maverick" being... kind of a poorly defined term really? Sometimes it's explicit to be a virus that's doing this to reploids, sometimes it's an error in their programing, sometimes they just do things that other people don't like and thus get labeled a Maverick because that. It's kinda weird.

    There were actually a couple of exploits in X8 where you can get a bunch of metals for the shop. One being the good old rubberband trick with an upgrade that gives you metals per step, and the other straight up maxes out the metal count at once. Basically try to refill a nearly half-filled subtank while you have less than 50 metals in the shop then pick up a metal in any level and there you go. An all expenses paid shopping spree with none of the grinding.
    The Navigators being playable is pretty neat as you can essentially have two of the same character in a team. Only stipulations is that Alia can't use armors, Palette can't use Copy Shot, and Layer can't equip the Sigma Blade but is perfectly fine with all the other weapons Zero can equip.

      A better money exploit for the Legacy Collection version (as the second does not work) is to do that giant robot stage and get to the part where you're near a cliff and he can't actually shoot you; from here, just hold down the fire button with Axel somehow (my favorite way is mapping it to R2 and setting the controller upside down; this, of course, only works on PS4) and come back a few hours later to all the money you'll ever need. This is better than the walking around one because it requires no set-up and can be done as soon as you beat the intro stage; I think it's also faster.

    i do think the legacy collection could've had a few different extras between versions( like the cutscenes in the ps version,the scrapped navigator mode for the alia,layer and pallete and some of the figurines for x8.) and i'd love to see a fleshed out x challenge with a story connecting them(maybe similar to extreme 1 and 2.).
