Well, when you're a series consisting of one game, it'd be disgrace if it wasn't the pinnacle.

It tried some things, but I don't feel they all paid off. It was still better than the ride armor system in X3 though. That could have been handled much smarter.

Except FF2 was better in every way aside from difficulty. Maybe story and location too.

The real answer is pic-related.

Fuck no, the combat is too slow and limited compared to other games in the series.

Best overall aesthetics though.

Technically it's the first of the 3D revival games and if you want to argue even further, it's just an enhanced version of the first game anyway.

Still, none of the other 3D games come close.

Nigger. Although I admit that the first six X games were all good. At least you put X5 at the top of the PS pile, most people get that wrong.

Not him but better interface, fusion system, dungeons and you can't autobattle 99% of the game. It's an upgrade, backtracking aside.

That's retarded, Mega Man and X series have very different gameplay approaches and mechanics. That's not even counting the other Mega Man spin-offs that deviate from their originator even further.

Meanwhile every Call of Duty since Modern Warfare (maybe COD3 actually) has been the exact same shit, just with a different skin.
>>
>>315345564
I wish I could feels as happy as that fat guy. Also if Mega man x counts than I think Assassin's Creed 2-1 counts as the best Assassin's Creed 2 game.
