Fallen,

Im surprised you didnt put Battletoads & Double Dragon.. That game to this day is still one of my favorite snes games and I still do play it occasionally even though i've beaten it already..

And im surprised no one has brought this game up:

I played this game non stop...

This game, at its time was like World of Warcraft to me.. Played this until my eyes burned..

Best Megaman sequel imo

[eraserhead]

You get +rep. Clocktower for PS1 is my favorite game. I never had the pleasure of playing the original for snes. How was it?

hey, thanks.

SNES Clock Tower is my favorite survival horror game, even if the graphics are outdated. The story sucks you in and some parts of the game are pretty freaky (i.e. being trapped in a cage with a starving man who will kill and eat you if you do not feed him something else)

The only annoying part was the "panic mode" that the protagonist goes through. She tends to trip a lot and it's inconvenient when Scissorman is chasing you.

Download the ROM and emulator; it's worth giving it a shot.

check out this guitar arrangement of the intro level I recorded 2 years back... haha

So on that emulator tangent:

What ever happened to www.plasticman.org?

That site was the shit.

Same with www.oneminuteleft.com

they just up and died and left the emu/rom world scrambling to find replacements. And now in the age of torrents, its impossible to find as reliable sites as those.

Dammit. Times have changed.

That game was classic the moment it came out. Revolutionized console FPS's

[Chicken]

man there was this one game on Sega Genesis or Saturn that I used to play with my dad

it was a classic beat em up, multiplayer and the one thing I remember most was that when you ate chicken you regained health

anyone know?

:\

I believe you could play as a black guy, too

edit: it was Streets of Rage

you also gained strength from eating roasted chicken in tekken 3.

goldeneye > perfect dark

i also loved super mario RPG. the overall pitch of the dialogue and environment is so somber compared to other super mario games. leave it to square enix to disfigure the relentlessly optimistic attitude of super mario. whatever happened to geno? ive never seen him in any other mario releases

I heard Nintendo didn't like what squaresoft (pre squeenix) did with the mario universe. That's pretty much why they've completely ignored the story/characters (geno/mallow) developed in the game. Paper Mario is probably more of what they wanted.

There was a reference to Geno in one of the Mario and Luigi RPG games though, and Geno would have been a shoe-in as a playable in Brawl if Nintendo had given Sakurai the ok on it. There was a poll asking what characters should be in the game, that's how Snake and Sonic got their spots. I think Geno was actually ahead of Snake.

[Sea]

incredible by yourself or with friends

[jeanunit]

[m1sterko]

i've always loved playing

during class times.

anyone remember this? my sisters played this and i always got to watch...

as you can see im a pc fan.. never had a console in my life

[AstroWolf]

The first time i played this with the force feed back gun in the arcade when it came out. GOD! For a kid it was a new pair of 45 Rpm's. Better.

I actually remember playing this and thoroughly enjoying it.

[corey]

I liked Flash Back better then ANother World. Heart of the Alien on 3DO was rad though.

Hah, I'm an all-luck button masher. Usually get pretty far on a $1 in quarters that way.

But you can't touch me in Centipede on arcade. I am re-donk-u-lous at it.

[EerieVon]

one of the earliest and best n64 games!

[chronoaug]

I like clunky game control too (10)

[Darkadious]

i'm dissapointed that i havn't seen this bitch yet

easily one of the most fun games i've played in my life

this one isn't quite classic yet but it gets shit done

i'm missing a bunch that havn't been listed yet but i don't want to find pictures

[EerieVon]

the pioneer of horror games! a true classic

[ROYALEFATALE]

anybody still play Tekken?

hit me up on PS3 to get FUCKING OWNEDDDDDDD

[notesee]

Did anyone cop one of those USB console controllers? I was thinking of getting a Genesis or SNES controller with a USB hook up, haven't heard much feedback about them though.

Already have a video cable to hook up my Macbook to a TV, so a quality controller would complete my emulation gaming set up.

[blm14]

Not sure if this one has been mentioned yet:

Best. Game. Evar.

Honorable mentions go to Wizardry 2-5, dragon warrior 3, and megaman 3.
