The Day the Earth Stood Still...




So, I was searching for new PSOne games to play, and I came across MegaMan 8. This is one of the best things about being out of gaming for a while. I find little jewels like this game. I think the thing that struck me the most was the beautiful artwork in this game. I was astounded that it was a PSOne game to be honest. And one of the hardest elements ever introduced into a MegaMan game, the jet board. I think this is up there with MegaMan Powered Up's iceman floating platform section. Only the designers of 8 thought it would be SO FUNNY to bring back the jet board for the beginning of Wily's tower. Not only that, but make it twice as long as the first one. I will say this though, I thuroughly enjoyed this game, even though it was relentless. If you haven't picked it up, it's a must have!!
