Here are my games that shouldn’t be forgotten.
Chrono Trigger- This RPG game to me is the defintion of RPG. It still holds up to this very day on how much of an awesome RPG game it is. Hey Square! Quit milking final fantasy to death and make something outta this will ya???
Ducktales- Who here remembers this game for the NES? It was gold! This was when most of the video games that were based off of Disney material was made by Capcom. Plus the game had awesome music, do I even need to explain the music? This, and the sequel to Ducktales was awesome. I would love to see a remake of the game by Warren Spector with added things to make the game better.
Conker’s Bad Fur Day- What happens when you take the clichéd cutesy animal stuff that’s too sweet for anyone to look at and mix it with adult humor inspired by South Park? You get this….This game was the bomb. Arguably in my opinion Rare’s masterpiece. The humor in this game was solid, the music is awesome, and chris seavor should be considered as the modern mel blanc for voicing a lot of the male characters in this game. Also, Mircrosucks. Damn you to hell for canceling the development of Other Bad Fur day.

The Neverhood- even though I have only played a little bit of the game, I have always adored this game. I have even enjoyed this more than Earthworm Jim, and that’s saying a lot since its from the same guy who created the Earthworm Jim series. I don’t even know where the hell to start with this game. the music, the cartooniness, its just downright awesome. Curse the rise of First Person Shooters to make this go so low in obscurity. Also, Doug tennapel needs to get a ton of dough to get the movie off the ground. Considering that he stated that the movie of The Neverhood got canned only because of finaclial reasons.

Leisure Suit Larry Love for sail- Seeing how we are getting a new Leisure Suit Larry game from the original designer that is a remake of the first game. I think we might be able to get a few people interested in the original series of Leisure Suit Larry. Seeing how this was the then last game of Larry designed by Al Lowe, it’s a good way to end off the series. I enjoyed the cartoony animation, the jazz music of the game, as well as the humor. Seeing how this was out during the time when FPS games were at a rise, it’s a mystery to me on how something like Love for sail would end up in obscurity due to how good it looks. If the remake of the first game does well enough, I hope it would reconsider in bringing back the development of Lust in Space.
Um Jammer Lammy- Im seriously surprised nobody even mentioned this game. WAAAAY before we even had Gutiar hero or even Halo, we had Um Jammer Lammy and Parappa the Rapper. This game rocked a whole lot during my childhood. The thing that made both Lammy and Parappa awesome was the music. I only have a few songs from the game on my ipod, but its that good of a soundtrack of a video game.
World of illusion starring Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck- One of the best Sega games Ive ever played. I think this one is very underrated for most of the Disney games that were produced at the time. Since this was a sequel to castle of illusion, I’m a bit surprised that there isn’t any references to the castle of illusion in this game. At least the 3DS game of Epic Mickey II will be a follow up to the world of illusion series.
Billy hatcher and the giant egg- Why do I mention this? Because it’s a game from the makers of Sonic the hedgehog that is doing something creative over milking the hedgehog to death. Billy Hatcher 2 is long overdue sega.
if I got any more I will post them on here later.
