This game is not as bad as everybody says !!!

The gameplay remains the same old, with the addictions of more Weapons for Zero, the changing character button [L2] and the Double Attack [R2]

You can play with X, with the possibility of getting new armors [Icarus, Hermes and Ultimate]. The Icarus and the Hermes parts can be set customizated: you can pick Hermes Head Part, Icarus Body Part, Basic Buster and Icarus Foot, for example]

Zero play with his plasma sword and learn a lot of technics from the bosses. There are 5 new weapons for Zero: K Knuckle [he can punch his enemies], B Fan [a pair of fans with defensive power], D Glaiva [a long spear with great range], T Breaker [a hammer] and the powerfull Sigma Sword [with veery powerl]

Axl pick new guns from the bosses

You can alo play with the Navigators. Alia has X's power, Layer fight like Zero and Pallette has the sama abilities that Axl

Withing the Levels there are hidden Rare Metal, that can be converted in special CHIPs for the players, such as Shield Armor and Shock Absorber

The levels are pretty dificult, but with time they will getting easier.

The sound is cool, just like every other Megaman X game

The graphics are very different from X7. Is X8 the levels, enemies, bosses and heroes are more digital. The cut-scenes are anime-style

This game is pretty good...all people that like Megaman should play this game at least once !!!

PS.: note how Seraph ****** [the name would be spoiling], the final boss, and his levels are VERY similar to Safer Sephiroth in Final Fantasy VII
