I adore this game. People criticize it for being too simple, but there's nothing wrong with that and it has tons of charm.

nethack is my favorite dark souls clone
My dad got me this on a whim, so it holds a special place for sure. I've never gotten past the first 3 or 4 levels, but the style, music, vibes, etc are all fantastic. Always wanted to go back and beat this. One day!
Side note - why does Hal's logo look like HAI? Why not the uppercase L?

Played the demo back in the 90's on our family-computer running windows 95.
I couldn't find it in stores, none of my friends had it. Never played more than the demo, but I was blown away by the jetpack gameplay and big levels.
Same for Thunder Brigade
Still an awesome OST

Yeah it comes from the times when every company had to have "street gangs" themed game.
This one is great though and I forgot to mention is that you can "collect" every enemy in the game and play as them.

DEVIL DICE on PS1, I loved this game so much but I'm sure most people don't remember it, shit, I bet most don't even know of its existence.
Rags to Ritches on C64. The IRS man scared the shit out of me as a kid.

The spiritual successor Satellite Reign was the only game I've ever kickstarted. Was a letdonw, though. And man, now that I think of it, this game REALLY made my reference design AMD R9 290 scream like an F-16.
That game was so amazing in coop, I don't know if it's completely forgotten or not but I have so many memories of it.

Yeah, Unity engine was so bad in that period, the performance was awful. The game was decent, nothing more.

I'm a huge fan of the Arc the Lad games. I think Twilight of the Spirits has some of the best memories for me, for reasons not related to the game but rather just other stuff that was going on in my life at the time I played it. Went back to replay it last year and it still holds up!
"Suze!" Damn that savepoint
. Inverted driving aside, this was a fun game!

. Inverted driving aside, this was a fun game!Recently picked this up in a box of old PlayStation games but haven't tried it yet. Now it's going to the front of the line!
What a game! It was like an an arena brawler and all the characters had unique abilities. Haven't been able to find another copy of it anywhere

Always wanted to play Outwars back in the day solely because it was developed by Singletrac. Only ever got to try a demo in a CompUSA.
Ended up getting it a few years back and I quite enjoyed it. Glad to see someone else remember it.

I know Def Jam: Vendetta and Def Jam: Fight For NY were both critically acclaimed but I have a soft spot for Def Jam: Icon. Even though it was not as well received, I really liked it.

Seriously, how do you pronounce this?!?A game called Ehrgeiz. It is a PS1 fighting game that isn’t really well known, Cloud is a playable character though. Lol
It also for some reason has like an rpg game in the cd that comes with the base game. Both were fun to 5 year old me tbh.

And he also do scare even more the shit out of me as an adult.
I have a very nice memory of this game I used to play on C64 when I was a kid. It was a good beat'em up with good graphics and an incredible atmosphere. It was very hard back in the day, especially the bikers in the first stage, but my brother was able to beat the game, I didn't.

The original "Rogue" from which modern rouge-likes evolved from. Probably the first game I every played on my old MS DOS computer when I was about 8 or so.

I thought the story was quite well done -- most of it anyway. Controls were a bit awkward and it had at least one awful timed section. But it was still fun to play.
The game needed a sequel that it never got.
It is on GOG though, so I guess people can get it easily if they want to play it.

Nobody ever talks about Tokyo Xtreme Racer and it makes me sad. It’s one of my favorite racing games of all time.

A Nightmare on Elm Street for the Original NES.
I know, may sound like a travesty, especially since LJN became synonymous with "trashy licensed video game." Hear me out -- My memory of the game is pretty fun. I'm a bit skeptical to go back to it today; another game I had fond memories of as a kid (Mario Kart on SNES), turned out to be not all that fun when I played it recently. But, Nightmare on Elm Street was awesome. The music, the action, the multiplayer, the graphics (yes, graphics, were all great at the time).

X Men Mutant Apocalypse was essentially a perfect game to me, but noone even mentions it anymore. I'd toss folks off cliffs like a goddamn Mishima for a decent rerelease of this game on modern platforms, just so that I could immediately buy it and never have to emulate again. At this point, most of the SNES games that I'll ever wanna replay have been rereleased on modern platforms in some capacity, (including the SNES Switch online app here), but Maximum Carnage, Separation Anxiety, and Mutant Apocalypse were some of my favorite games on the platform, so it's a shame that I have to continue emulating for three goddamn games.

I've never even heard of this, wowI don't see people mentioning POP:WW as much as they should. Such a dope and cool game with one of the best soundtracks ever. People just mention it to criticize how they went in a different direction than the prequel which I don't care about as the game is different but better.
God I wish the new POP was in hands of more capable and experienced studio.
