Mega Man X has some of the best music tracks and art design on the SNES, but what really makes me love this game is the movement. Dashing and wall-jumping is the perfect evolution from the classic series, and adds so much the gameplay in terms of exploration and combat. The options for maneuvering in the platforming and battling now range all the way from basic hopping and shooting to aggressive weaving in and out. The most impressive part is that despite the freedom of motion granted to X, the game still finds ways to offer a consistent challenge. It’s the prime example of a platforming game making every moment as engaging as possible.
