Mega Man (the 8th game)



Mega Man, known as Rockman (ロックマン Rokkuman) was the common protagonist of the Classic Mega Man series. In 1996 when Mega Man 8 came out, he was somewhat butchered.

Why He Sucks in Mega Man 8

 * 1) Compared to the other games where he's a friendly robot who's brave, Mega Man has become a cowardly crybaby in this game.
 * 2) He likes to overreact about fighting people a lot.
 * 3) He also mistakes Bass as a friend when he's clearly a villain
 * 4) His English voice is very grating.
 * 5) His infamous scream is also very annoying, and you have to listen to believe what we're talking about.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Mega Man is a likable protagonist in MM1-MM7, and becomes likable again in MM9-MM11.
 * 2) He comes out of his shell later on in the game.
 * 3) There are fans who still root for him.
 * 4) Ai Orikasa does a great job voicing him.
