Arcade Longplay [074] Eight Man 

Eightman is Spectacular with ABSOLUTELY AWESOME graphics and STUNNING gameplay

"RUNS AS FAST AS LIGHTNING! THE 8TH SUPER ROBOT WE CALL...... EIGHT MAN!" Hype intro.

Back in the 90's, when I was spending time on games like Strider and TMNT, this would have been a blast to play with a group of friends, especially since I was just getting hooked on the 8 Man show. The visuals are quite impressive, even by Arcade standards.

I miss 30 minute games so much.. Thankfully I've been able to buy a bunch of brilliant Neo Geo games on switch that give me just that.. Hopefully hamster will release this one too, looks awesome.

The reason for the number "8" is because he's the 8th experiment. Hence why he's called 8-Man.

Man! The character designs on this game are amazing!

It's one of the villains from the series this arcade is based on. So, if you think it is weird, know that it was because it was taken from a weird anime villain.

It’s 8man, with his second-in-command-9man!

The soundtrack to this is pretty good. Stage 4-1 in particular.

At around 15:44 during the battle with Kozuma, you can see that SNK has left their mark on the building.

So...the first boss is Blanka in a Predator costume?

An interesting piece of trivia; the boss Super Robot 005 was featured in an episode from the original 60s show. Shame the game didn't have Ken or Samantha 7 in it.

I love the name of the 4th stage boss, not Cyber "man" or Cyber "Lord" or anything else, it's just "Cyber". Good run through, I enjoyed watching it allot, good classic from my childhood.

used to love playing this in the arcade. Fuck 3D 2d games 4ever!

never heard of this game but it looks awesome

I always found 8-Man's vocalizations in this game funny. Even though he only has two audio tracks. When he gets hit, he goes "OOH!" And when he dies, he goes "WAH!"

SNK rules ! They were the best !

i remember playing this game, ah the good ol days :)

This what happens if Sonic and mega man had Older cousin

26:05 Man, some of these final bosses are wierd. You play the entire game fighting robots and mutants and technology, and then you fight a robot with a giant evil brain inside. and after you fight the evil brain, what's the TRUE Final boss? Some sort of evil skeleton ghost wizard.

one of my fav. games !

This game was a lot of fun. Though, I wish they had made a game based on the 1993 OVA with Hazama Itsuru.

In Eight Man,the final boss name is Cyber.While as in Cyber Lip,the final boss name is Cyber Lip.

They make the anime into a game ? Cool this was their own RoboCop in the 60s

Aahh. Neo Geo. Hope they do more mega collections in PS2 soon.

@tecmo1 that's because it's the AES version (which usually had 4 credits per game).

4th Stage 3rd Area - Cyber Hulk!

13:14 - That was so damn close :D

I'm just sad it was never released on the NEO GEO CD.

Hey, I know this anime! There's an old black and white one too. The new version is very Mega Man X. It is in my book "ANIME: ACCORDING TO AI".

Sonic the hedgehog + Atomic Runner = Eightman

EIGHTMAN IS A KNOCKOFF THE FLASH.

mucha nostalgia por hoy

So this is the game Fredro Starr and Bokeem Woodbine was playing in that movie strapped looks ill af

eight man vs predator, coming to an arcade near you!

AWESOME

Hey! I noticed the SNK logo in the background when you fight Kozuma! Check around 15:24!

Teemu Selänne after NHL career.

This Game is Bad I first seen it in the 1993 Film Strapped now for those of you who liked the Film it has reached it's 20th Anniversary so go see it, and Menace II Society after 20 Years they both still look as Sharp as when the first came out.

Neo geo gave you literally the same game over and over again with a different title then charged you another 2 to 300 bucks for it, piss off neo geo, glad I never spent 600 hundred bucks on that shit system

Man, this game sucks so much. It looks very tedious, and the timing in the final stages is hilariously unforgiving. They expect you to take on Cyber's first form with little above 10 seconds? If it hadn't been for your bombs, you would have timed out at least once during the game!

Strider ripoff.
