 | Shenmue II (Dreamcast)
Buy used from: £39.95 Believe all the hype..this IS the best game EVER..Totally immersive and compelling gameplay. Massive world to explore and genuinely brought something new to the genre. BUY IT f00l!
|
 | Nights Unauthorized Game Secrets (Secrets of the Games) by Simon Hill
Buy used from: £37.18 (Book shown because game is not on here) Released on the doomed SEGA Saturn and so wasn't held in high regard. A demonstration of what a platformer should be
|
 | Halo 2
Buy new: £14.95 / Used from: £2.99 Only here for its multiplayer..single player is lacklustre but the multiplayer is the best in any game ever..anyone still sceptical about online gaming needs to buy this and XBOX LIVE
|
 | Ikaruga
Buy new: £39.99 / Used from: £16.50 Best played in the arcade or even the japenese dreamcast port but due to availability had to show gamecube format. Easy to play, impossible to master shoot em up.Extremely clever game
|
 | Skies of Arcadia (Dreamcast)
Buy used from: £54.95 A million times better than FFVII. Random fights are tedious but there's something special about this game
|
 | Jet Set Radio Future
Buy used from: £6.99 The first XBOX game I owned..had me gripped in its funky music and gameplay for weeks..not very well received and certainly not for everyone but I liked it
|
 | Sonic Adventure
Buy used from: £3.00 The last great sonic game..dont bother getting any sonic game beyond this..gives his 3d Italian plumber rival something to think about
|
 | Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros 3 (GBA)
Buy used from: £20.00 (NES version) Kicks the crap out of the previous two..got me into gaming all those years ago. Dated now but worth playing for the nostalgic effect if not anything else
|
 | Panzer Dragoon Orta
Buy used from: £3.47 Not as good as the uber rare saturn rpg game in the series(not listed due to rarity)... still one of the best games around and probably the last good SEGA game
|
 | Paper Mario
Best Mario game...shows that the big two platformers(sonic and mario) still play best in 2d..raises the question why they ever went 3d
|
 | Samba De Amigo with Maracas Controllers (Dreamcast)
Buy used from: £139.90 novelty add on in the maracas which shows that the wii isnt particulary that revolutionary control wise..bit pricey nowadays but fun nevertheless
|
 | Rez
Buy used from: £54.99 Genuinely different experience which has now amassed a cult following..graphics wise it reminds me of tron but plays like panzer dragoon..not a bad mix itself but beats them in its own right
|
 | Mario Kart Advance: Super Circuit
Buy used from: £11.49 (SNES version) back in the day there was no better multiplayer experience..cheap imitations like CTR should be ignored
|
 | Spyro The Dragon - Platinum (PS)
Buy used from: £7.98 Dont judge a game by its cover..kiddyish? yes but who cares..perfects the art of combining a challenge for adults and fun for kids seemlessly..never gets boring throughout
|
 | SoulCalibur (Dreamcast)
Buy used from: £2.99 You won't find a better beat em up on any console..best played with the now rare arcade stick
|
 | OutRun 2 (Xbox)
Buy used from: £1.44 not as good as the original but a decent sequel..looks all shiny and its over-the-top drifts never get tiresomee
|
 | Psychonauts (Xbox)
Buy used from: £12.95 loved this game..bought it way after release which I now regret..a sharp platformer with new ideas and humerous plot and storyline
|
 | Gears of War (Xbox 360)
Buy new: £17.99 / Used from: £5.88 Great on live but single player is weak and the storyline almost laughable..best this gen experience on live
|
 | ICO
Buy used from: £27.25 One of the few decent PS2 games around, more than a game..leaves an effect on you. Full of intrigue
|
 | Grandia II
Buy used from: £14.50 Not as good as Skies of Arcadia and the PS2 version is an improvement IMO but still a very playable game and worth your time and money. FF beater?not sure..
|
 | Phantasy Star Online Version 2 (Dreamcast)
look no further for a decent console based MMORPG..pricey fee every month and limited support these days takes away from experience slightly
|
 | Shenmue (Dreamcast)
Buy used from: £17.90 Bettered by its sequel in everyway apart from storyline..still doesnt feel dated though..everyone needs this game
|
 | Galleon (Xbox)
Buy used from: £0.76 Not as good as it could of been but still a solid effort..from the makers of tomb raider but easily betters that overrated pap
|
 | Ninja Gaiden (Xbox)
Buy used from: £1.19 Classic game given a classic update..the black version is more challenging however this one provides the best blend of gameplay/challenge imo..classic last gen title
|
 | Zelda : The Ocarina Of Time (N64)
Buy used from: £4.99 Top Zelda game and probably wont be bettered in a long time.. a worthy addition to your collection

Listmania!
