In my experience of games, i've loved the Goldeneye's, The Grand Theft Auto's, and the Gran Turismo's! Whats In common with these 3 games apart from the fact they all begin with "G"??? Its that they are the popular, widely known games out there in our gaming universe, that any Joe Bloggs would know about!
This topic is about those games that were great, fun and enjoyable but just were not recognised! Games like Paper Mario, virtually the last N64 game that came when most peeps were dumping their 64's at a trash site. Pilotwings, another well known game with us on the forums, but If you said the word "Pilotwings" to an average person trudging down the road they'd probably flip you off!!!
So here are a few famous, unfamous games that I love (apart from the 2 above, heh)!!!
Micro Maniacs
You know, that Micro Machines spin-off. I know a lot of you might have hated this games guts but I thought it was great fun! Drag a few people in off the streets and have even more of a riot. Okay, it was very similar to Micro Machines, but that isn't all bad.
Hybrid Heaven
This game was at the top of the headlines for a while, then its release got ushed back, everyone ignored it, and then it released unnanounced! Its a shame if you didn't play this because for me it was a brilliant experience!
Turok 3
Now If Im right, which i probably am not, the 3rd Turok was realeased AFTER Turok Rage Wars. Everyone was a bit fed up of Turok on the 64 by now so they just, well, didn't buy it!
Tomb Raider Chronicles
Ok, now some of you may have a go at me for this, but I don't think the game really caught on.
this is just a selection of those forgotten games *sniff* how well they have served us! I salute you!!!
