This game came out over a decade ago, but is anyone else still completely blown away by it? I've been playing it again, and everything about it is as perfect as I remember. It's consistently ranked as one of the all-time greats, and it's no doubt deserving of the praise.

The general atmosphere of the game is so fitting - the music and sound, the look, the feeling of captivity. The gameplay is simple, yet continues to pull you in by spreading out new skills. Even the controls are some of the most elegant I've seen. Everything about Super Metroid is perfectly put together. It may be the last great side-scroller.
