No way, the Twisted Metal series rocked. There's something about cars destroying cars that appeals. Twisted Metal sparked off games such as Vigilante 8 (also very good).


And if your not one for car bashing games, then you don't have the right to criticise because you'll obviously disagree. I don't go around slating Zelda, because I can't stand those 3D walk around games and I know I wouldn't say anything productive about it.

Why would they put Twisted Metal 2 in it?

It's a load of pants.

Id agree with that, Zelda was awesome whilest playing through. Although i thought the change to the castle courtyard after link grew up was heartbreaking. All the singing and merryment replaced by moaning zombies. I could have shed a tear.

Yeah, i'd pretty much agree with that list. Except Tetris should be in the top 5. Its simple, but addictive. Its flippin' class!

Admitedly, I have never played Zelda for the N64 but I have played Zelda: Links Awakening for the GB and found it to be really good, I dont know how many times I played it.
So no, Zelda is not crap from what Ive seen. I think the majority of gamers would agree.
