sorry to go for obvious inhouse choices, but its true.

also,if you want a game to amuse you for a few weeks i
highly recommend Anachronox for the p.c - came out about 8
years ago and was criminally overlooked - picked it up for
pennies a few weeks back. great console style rpg - only non
lucas arts game to ever actually make me properly laugh too.
as in, not funny for a game, but actually funny.

power stone was an exceptional game,
that justified buying a dreamcast alone.

one of the best beat´em ups evar

Man, I can't actually think of many really great games for
the SNES or N64.

There's Super Metroid and a bunch of Parodius, Link to the
Past, maybe Yoshi's Island (haven't really played it).

And then what, some JRPGs and arcade ports. Like Super Smash
TV, it's great but no exclusive. And some weird quirky games
like E.V.O. etc.

Help me, it's even worse for the N64, I can't think of
anything outside of the obvious mario zelda perfect dark
bnjbjn

What are some great games

Blast Corps is a gem. Hybrid Heaven, Shadow Man and Winback
were fun, though I bet they aged horribly. And well what can
you do, N64 had a top-heavy, shallow library. The good games
had ridiculously muscular legs that kept my N64 useful for
years though.

I don't think I've ever heard of Hybrid Heaven or Winback,
thank you, I'll try them out.

I forgot Paper Mario, Paper Mario is cool.

yeah, super smash tv,
great 2player action and a nice idea
of how to use a controller in 2d.

for those who dont know the game:
you could walk all 4 directions via the steering
on the left and shoot in all 4 directions with all
4 buttons on the right, wich made it possible
to walk in any direction while shooting in every
other direction. that was some slick controller design.
you could also combinate for example up and left to
shoot or walk diagonal.
and you needed that for sure, cause there were massive
amounts of opponents coming from everywhere...

internet says you can dl it for the xbox360
and i would advise that to everybody
