As X stares out at the burning remnants of Doppler’s lab, his body trembles from an unknown sorrow.
Wow, I really liked this one! Really imaginative Maverick designs, kinetic movement (a vertical air dash!!!), wonderful music, finally getting to play as Zero a bit, and some interesting boss weapons made this a great palate cleanser after Mega Man 7. The power fantasy in this one is the key, I think—running through Doppler’s lab with the Hyper Chip and Zero’s saber is an absolute blast. Be warned, though, because this game is brutal until you start nabbing a few upgrades for X. Well, that’s it for Mega Man X on the SNES.
