Drack Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Yesterday I compiled a list of every console game I've played (that I remember) for any decent amount of time. The list can be found here. Yeah, I've played a lot of games What I'm asking, is that if you see any glaring omissions from my list, great games I've missed out on, do tell! I'm open to all genres. Systems other than those I already own are a bit more tricky, but all suggestions are welcome. I don't want this to turn into a favorites thread, so don't bash anyone's opinions or suggestions, or act like yours are better than everyone else's.

Guy In Rubber Suit Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 A shame you don't own a PS2 at least, many, many great games you have missed on both the PS2 and PSone. For Sega CD, definitely Snatcher. That's the game that made me want a Sega CD (I got the CDX to save space and it sounds cool). SNES, I see a glaring omission of Earthbound, Tetris Attack, Kirby Superstar, Actraiser, Demon's Crest, Metal Warriors and many more I'm sure.

Jimmy Jazz Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 OK, so I'm missing out games for consoles you haven't got (Namely Dreamcast, Saturn, Megadrive, PS1 and PS2, which, with the exception of the PS2 you can pick up in fairly good condition for fairly cheap). Final Fantasy 5 (SNES) Afterburner 2 (Genesis) Outrun (Genesis) Space Harrier (Genesis) Lunar (Sega CD) Snatcher (Sega CD) Lylat Wars/Star Fox 64 (N64) Megaman Zero 3 (GBA) Phoenix Wright 2 (The full name currently doesn't spring to mind) (NDS). And at least get yourself a dreamcast. EDIT - Oh, and the SNES stuff Citan mentioned. I feel like an idiot for not mentioning Earthbound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drack Posted February 19, 2007 Author Share Posted February 19, 2007 Is Final Fantasy V available in English? Also, SF64 is on the list Thanks for the comments, I'll definitely look into em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ab56 v2 aka Ash Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 You should at least give Metroid: Zero Mission a play through. It's a good remake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealFolkBlues Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 A couple of additions to the N64 list; Perfect Dark and Jet Force Gemini. Back when Rare was good, they were great. Love these two games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Jazz Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Is Final Fantasy V available in English? Oh yeah........ That should probably read Final Fantasy 5(GBA) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouncerboy15 Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 You should at least give Metroid: Zero Mission a play through. It's a good remake. Damn, that game was fun. I wouldn't mind playing it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ab56 v2 aka Ash Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Wait I casually skimmed through the list and went straight to point out Metroid: Zero Mission, yet I just realized you haven't yet played SUPER METROID!? Get outta town! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arek the Absolute Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I have played 99% of those games, Coop, as well as almost every single game listed in drack's list. Why the hell am I not pale as fuck? I obviously have no time for sunlight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Coop Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Oh, and I forgot the European version of Zero Wing. It plays just fine on a US system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drack Posted February 19, 2007 Author Share Posted February 19, 2007 Shit Coop .. I think I've been </thread>ed Guess it's time to get to w ... I mean playing! I'll keep the list updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sephfire Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Your lack of PS2 and Xbox have lost you a few awesome titles, sadly. Psychonauts, Okami, Shadow of the Colossus and Katamari Damacy, off the top of my head. I like this format of list you've laid out. I might make one for myself.

Guy In Rubber Suit Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Shit COOP you just have that list laying around for situations such as these don't you? Hmmm...I'll have to check out some of those games myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atmuh Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 uhhh soul blazer wasn't on that list what are you thinking?!?!?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Coop Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 As dumb as it may sound, I only recommend games I've actually played all the way through (or at least well into them). I don't trust reviews all that much, as they're often all over the board when you go from site to site. So I just stick to listing games I have experience with. That's why titles like the Final Fantasies, Lunar 2 (Sega CD) and such aren't listed in my post. And speaking of which, a few more forgotten ones... -NES- Blaster Master LifeForce Gradius 1942 1943 Super C -SNES- Hagane Biometal -Sega CD- Ecco the Dolphin Ecco: The Tides of Time Heart of the Alien (Out of This World 1+2) Sol-Feace AH3 Thunderstrike -Genesis- Valis III Sagaia Insector-X The Immortal G-Loc Soldiers of Fortune Space Invaders '91 Toejam & Earl Toejam & Earl 2: Panic on Funkotron Vapor Trail Gauntlet IV Gain Ground Raiden Trad Fire Shark Skeleton Krew Blaster Master 2 Dune: The Battle For Arrakis Cyborg Justice -GBA- King of Fighters EX: Neo Blood King of Fighters EX2: Howling Blood And if you're up for some import titles (which can be played using a Game Genie)... -MegaDrive- Thunder Force IV Undead Line Alien Soldier Pulseman Super Fantasy Zone Eliminate Down Gley Lancer Monster World IV Twin Hawk (Daisenpuu) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 As dumb as it may sound, I only recommend games I've actually played all the way through (or at least well into them). I don't trust reviews all that much, as they're often all over the board when you go from site to site. My problem with review sites are that they're not honest about problems with games, or try to hide the most notable ones. That's why I'm in the process of starting one .

The Coop Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 True. Notice none of them ever talked about the small glitches in Capcom Classics Collection 2, or the weird issue with Joust 2's title screen on the XBox version of Midway Arcade Treasures 1. Or the huge, game ending bug in Primal Rage on MAT2 (XBox version). That bothered me quite a bit since they all said how perfect or great the emulation was. Oh, and I added a few more titles to my second list above. Remembered a few others while I was in the shower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watkinzez Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Get a PS2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobaltstarfire Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 If you get the ecco the dolphin games you might want to try the genesus version instead, the cd versions have a new level or two that don't particularly add much, and the soundtracks are replaced by mostly ambient junk. (Nothing against ambient, but most the music in the cd versions was...bad). That's just me though...sometimes the music can break a good game for me... Ecco games are probably amoung my fav of all time though, they were very different and challengeing for their time, and probably still are now to a certain point, or atleast for people that don't know the ins and outs of the game. Oh yeah, for the GBA Golden Sun, only the first one though, the second one didn't really hold up to the original I thought.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linkspast Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Get a PS2. QFE. Just by not having a ps2 you miss a ton of awesome games such as Shadow of the Colossus, and FF12, or MGS2 and MGS3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drack Posted February 20, 2007 Author Share Posted February 20, 2007 Thanks guys for the suggestions - I may look into getting a dreamcast or ps2 to pick up some of the games I missed out on. Aside from that, you've provided lots of titles I can't wait to try. </thread>. Seriously this time. I've sigged the list; PM me if you have any more suggestions.
