#25: Donkey Kong Country (SNES)
This game featured the best graphics you'd ever seen at that time but I love it for so much more than that. It was a truly challenging platfomer, well built, with tight gameplay, absolutely perfect music and tons of replay value if you wanted to get the full 101% on your game file. The game introduced Diddy Kong as Donkey Kong's buddy who tags along in the adventure to retrieve the stolen banana horde from the Kremlins. Each character has their advantages by I found myself switching to Diddy more often than not.
Signature goes here!
