Cobra Kai Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 -Tempest 2000 (Jag) -Castlevania III Dracula's Curse (NES) -Tetris This is hard, because Tetris is not one of my favorites of all time, but a puzzle game makes so much sense, and something you can play endlessly. So I have a shooter, a platformer/adventure game and a puzzler. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikebloke Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Can't believe I'm no longer putting Panzer Dragoon Saga in this list! Probably because I've played it to death and there is only so much content in it that you can revisit. I'd go for: Azure dreams (PS1) Gemcraft (any after 2/0, or all if I could) (PC) Mount & Blade II (PC) - for butter and wifeing. If it had to be only console, switch out pc ones for Final Fantasy Xii (PS2) Shining Force aggghhh can't decide between 1 or 2. 2 for versalility (Mega Drive) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hwlngmad Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 For me, I would go: Mutant League Football (Sega Genesis / Mega Drive) Alien Crush (PCE / TG-16) NHL '94 (Sega Genesis / Mega Drive) 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard Smith Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 1. Midnight Magic / 2600 2. Tenchu 3 / Xbox 3. Tie .... Some recent Gears of War (for Horde mode) and Ms. Pac-Man for the 7800 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BydoEmpire Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Phantasy Star Online (Gamecube/Dreamcast) Pac Man Collection (7800) - I would have voted Ms. Pac Man if a collection like this isn't allowed. Civilization III (PC) 3rd... that was tough. Definitely a strategy game like one of the Civilizations, but maybe Heroes of M&M or Age of Empires... I can't imagine picking a game that wasn't designed for replayability, especially with only 3. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Mushroom Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 (edited) For me it would have to be games which support 4 or more players at once offline. The multiplayer would have to be versus, or the game would have to be very long, for there to be sufficient replayability. Here is my list: One of the Mario Kart games (I would have to do some research before picking one, but not Super Mario Kart) Unreal Tournament (PC) I think there is a recent popular free to play beat´em up, which I suspect has a ton of levels. Maybe that one. Edited February 25, 2022 by Lord Mushroom 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I think a collection is not in the spirit of the thread, but a very good idea. Sega Mega Drive and Genesis Classics has over 50 games alone. With compilations allowed, I would probably choose 3 compilations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya, since this is the classic gaming section, it might have been better if I made it 3 Cartridges. I bet we would have seen some compilations, because I would probably add Super Mario All Stars to mine if that was the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BydoEmpire Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Yeah, I don't like including compilations in this kind of thing. Agreed it's not really in the spirit of the question although to be fair Pac Man Collection isn't quite the same as a big compilation like you'd see on ps2 or something with 50 games... it's a homebrew cartridge with a limited focus. It's a bit more like a bunch of game variations than a compilation. Regardless, I original was going to write Ms. Pac Man and that'd be a perfectly good #2 pick for me. Endlessly replayable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeonSpaceBeagle Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Blur PS3 or 360. It's so damn hard this would force me to get through it. Tetris for nes. The colors relax me in this game while the stress increases. Friday the 13th for PS4. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's such a good game. Yeah, it's funny; the critics savaged it when it came out, and there was this bogus meme going around forever that movie-licensed games were all crap (though some were), but almost everyone I knew who actually played it rated it very highly bitd. Not that people caught on to the fact that it was an Atlus game, people seem to be finally giving it its due, which is nice to see. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+GoldLeader Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Tough question! Dark Cavern (Atari 2600) Ultimate Qix (Sega Genesis) Faxanadu (NES) I consider my first 2 as great games to just pick up and play at any time. My third choice was going to be Pinball Hall of Fame (Williams Collection) for PS2 (or even PSP), but... well, trying not to pick a comp, or maybe saying I'd just play Taxi on there would be an option. Then, I might have gone with Jaki Crush on Super Famicom instead, but, it's also very "pick up and play", and I wanted something with depth, where you can explore endlessly,... I've always loved Faxanadu, although realistically I am stuck on a part of the game and don't know if I'll ever get past that point. But with only 3 choices I might figure it out 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
