It's Getting Steamy in Here!
People think that Fate of Atlantis was the first good Indiana Jones point and click, but really this was the best. You could box in it!
What is Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade?
I bought this for Gameclub, but got as far as the Gameclub did.
What is Bully: Scholarship Edition?
The first game was great on PC. The first port cancelled a system. The second port was well done on the PS2.
What is Half-Life?
I bought this remake from my local game store because I still play the system quite frequently. However, I've spent ZERO time in it.
What is Metroid: Zero Mission?
Such a weird spinoff game on PS3...why did you add zombies to this great series? The gunplay was never good to begin with, but having zombies everywhere sure made things weird...
Hey, you got your Star Wars in my Age of Empires...and you know what? It worked pretty well!
What is Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds?
Al Lowe famously said on the Player One Podcast - "The Mouse plays hardball" - so when this remake of a Genesis game was about to be pulled from Steam, I decided to buy it. (It has since returned though)
What is Castle of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse?
The was such a weird sequel to arguably one of the most important games on the Playstation One. Even on later compilations, it's been largely ignored. Maybe we'll get a port to the Oculus Quest soon though...
What is Metal Gear Solid: VR Missions?
You may have played it on Super Nintendo or Playstation, or maybe even one of the new ports, but I still haven't played my GBA copy of this classic RPG.
What is Final Fantasy VI?
People (like Phil) wrongly claim that the Super Nintendo is better. This game not only proved the Genesis version was superior because it had 2 more characters. However this game was incredibly hard because as you went for the title, you had to fight multiple enemies at the same time. Don't let the digitized graphics fool you, this game is a banger though!
What is WWF Wrestlemania: The Arcade Game?
Some people say this RPG is great especially since it's been ported to almost every console (and Vita) in existence, but I've still never played it. The skeletons scare me too much.
What is Undertale?
You and I may have played the original in Microsoft Entertainment Pack, but this sequel sits still unplayed in my Steam Library.
What is Chip's Challenge 2?
The best Star Wars game on the PS1, other than the fact it's so difficult I broke 2 controllers playing this game. I think the port to the next generation console was better though.
What is Star Wars: Episode 1: Jedi Power Battles
The is likely the only fake cart I own. I don't really know what to do with it, so I've held on. The port of the SNES game is fine, although sometimes I wish they would have ported the GameBoy version instead.
What is Donkey Kong Country?
People often complain about remakes today. However, this is the first real remake I ever played on Super Nintendo which only came out 3 years after the first release. Of course, the copy I now own was version two, which added an additional game to the mix.
What is the Super Mario All-Stars AND Super Mario World Cart?
A remake is out for this so-called masterpiece, but the forest showed up as nothing but blocky chunks when I tried to play for four minutes on my older videocard. I then decided to write a story myself that would be more fun.
What is Alan Wake?
Nazis vs Dinosaurs. What other game can give you this? Answer; Nothing - except for the constant crashes that kept me away.
What is Dino D-Day?
I've played this game so much on PS2 but never played the handheld version (which apparently is great). I will always remember it for having one of the best secret ending of all time on your second playthrough. Beat the boss? No! Instead you punch him in the face, take your tape and watch the credits roll.
What is Tony Hawk's Underground?
Somewhat a trick question since I've played this amazing GBA port, but I've never actually played the superior console/PC one. It's been remade for PC and even had another new version put out on Current Gen systems as a budget title, albeit with a slightly changed title.
What is Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance?
Last year Dungeons and Dragons: Dark Alliance launched.
I own a still-sealed copy of this popular DS title and its sequel. I heard many good things, but weirdly enough my friend had and I played the spin-off starring Sponge-Bob SquarePants which convinced me to pick this up when I saw it on discount.
What is Drawn to Life?
I bought this collection because much like CJ, the first game I played was the Fourth one. On my original copy, it's a full shareware version which claimed "Our Best Nintendo Like Game!"
Despite all that and as good as the game is, I ended up playing a lot of this pong-like side game as well when I wasn't fighting slugs.
What is Commander Keen Collection?
The Sequel to One of Mike Phillip's favorite games of the year (and maybe all time) - I've never played it...although maybe will one day when I too can fly.
What is A Bird Story? (sequel to To the Moon)
The sequel to the vastly superior PS1 games, I bought this game with such high hopes...and the L...O...A...D...I...N...G... screens that took 10 times before a level loaded brought me to tears before I finally gave up.
What is Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of the Loading Screens.
Or Cortex. Whatever. Same thing.
The Best GBA RPG had this sequel on DS. I bought it at launch so excited and an hour in...and I never played it again. A sequel would probably make me buy a Switch though.
What is Golden Sun: Dark Dawn?
Another DS Combo pack! The games launched a year apart, but the truth is, you only (apparently) needed to know one thing to get through most of the levels in the game; Cthulhu.
What is Scribblenauts 1 & Super Scribblenauts?
