"NOT A CHARGE SHOT!" - Vile, Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X, 2006.

And here we have my entry point to the Mega Man series as a whole. This SNES classic clearly still kicks ass to this day. I first played this charming Sum-Bitch on the Legacy Collection that this game was packaged in. Those sprites, tight controls, a killer soundtrack, combine that with the upgraded presentation from the NES titles to the SNES, it really felt like the next generation. The X series took a lot of the formulas that the classic series had with some new advancements. Adding some rpg elements with the armor pieces was a great staple to the X series. Both this game and X4 are my favorites in the X series.
