    Okay, turning to the best of the best here. Does anyone have an idea who did the music for this game? PSX or Saturn?

    I got super curious because I just kickstarter'd Mighty No. 9 mostly because they managed to get a good amount of Mega Man-ness in the music sample, and I was curious who was responsible for my one of my favorite Mega Man soundtracks of all time.

    It's a fun game with an equally fun soundtrack. Clown man's stage music will forever be ingrained in my head.

    The main composer was Shinji Amagishi who also worked on the best Megaman series, Megaman Legends :)

    Anyone know if the one that came with the Anniversary Collection is the same one as the Anniversary Edition of 8?

    @thunderslash: What's the Anniversary Edition of 8?

    Also, sorry, yeah it's Uchiyama. Amagishi did the sound effects for the game.

    @zero_: I believe the Anniversary Edition is just the original release. It just has the "Anniversary Edition" subtitle. I don't think the Mega Man Anniversary Collection kept that subtitle in its version of 8. So I was wondering if there were differences besides the name.
