For me the nostalgia glasses are turned up to the max for Crash Bandicoot.

I love the character designs, and the music is an absolute bop to listen to. (Got the first games theme as my ringtone even at 27!)

And I enjoyed a good challenge with some of its levels. The bosses were neat and I thought it was just an unusual neat idea that you jump on boxes to progress rather than punching a block for a fireflower.

You?

Mega Man X. The first one for SNES.

It was such an evolutionary leap forward from the previous MM games. Everything was bigger and better. The graphics, the music, the controls. It blew my mind at the time.

I spent so many hours on this game. Probably replayed it hundreds of times. The boss battles were so epic. SIGMA! And then discovering the secret shouryuken move from Street Fighter! Wow!

Sigma before the kids started saying it. 😂
