NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams

My list so far has games that will be completely unique to me, i think. The only one anyone might possibly touch is Toe Jam & Earl

My 47 should make a few appearances

I don't think Music or Swing,  will appear on any else's list (but it's early days yet :D) so I think everyone will boast at least 1 unique item in their list. :D I'm really enjoying this!

I haven't played the original TJ&E but I have played a couple of hours of Panic on Funkotron on my cousin's MegaDrive, that was quite fun.... though without the ability to save progress it was a little frustrating given I couldn't play for very long in one go.

 

I added my 47th... Portal on PC. Something that will almost certainly be on some others lists, the sequel I have already seen too (though unfortunately not played)



Damn!!! I'm starting to fall behind already. I'll have to post two games tomorrow.



Signature goes here!

Might I request pictures be banned from the main thread or at least limited to most recent game added, the page is gonna take an eternity to load eventually and some people seem to really going overboard with picture sizes, nevermind the time it takes to scroll past them all. Embedded videos are even worse.

I thought about removing the images from my post to not make it so long and reduce load time and I'm just using tiny box arts for images.

 

edit: If anyone is like me it just gonna make me ignore all but my own post and not even read others unless posting in THIS thread.

I agree with this. My list in the other thread is just game name, platform and a link to the post in this thread explaining it all.

I'll limit my top 5 games to large banners, and then I'll just use small box covers. I don't want to see too many banner either. However my top 10 will still have oversized banners :P

Still I'll agree to a box cover format.

#48. Half-Life 2 (PC) - This game is fun. I remember being young and watching my uncle play the first game. Funny enough, I still have never even played Half-life 1. Might play it sooner but most likely later. All in all, I think this game was still the star of the orange box. Don't know why its not higher though.

I went with Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo: Hyper Fighting (SNES) because I believe it is the best version of SF2. While there might have been a better version of SF2 (no clue considering there are probably a ton of them), I love the ability to crank up or down the speed of the game. I didn't even own a SNES (went with Sega that generation) but I played this game a little when it was first out on SNES. I have put a decent amount of hours on the VC title while playing against a friend.

Please, for everything that is holy in gaming, get the titles of the games you put on the list right. There was no Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo on the SNES. The subtitle and description make it clear that you need to scratch the "Super".


I typed it in right in the other thread or someone changed it.  Funny thing is that I have it written down right.  I must have just been inclined to add the Super when typing in this thread.  I kneel for forgiveness and pray that I never make a mistake like that again.

Went with Punch-Out!! for 47.  While some might view it as a weak choice.  I believe those people probably didn't grow up during the 8-bit era.  I never did beat Tyson though...  Now, I can only face Mr. Dream or whatever.



I noticed everyone is putting their list counting down (what we are supposed to be doing). Such as listing 50 then 49
then 48, etc.. Apparently, I went the other way. I was just thinking that when the list is complete you will then have #1 on top. Anyways, I'm leaving it that way since it makes me cool.



When I read a count down, I've always preferred it when they count down O.o having the 1st placed item at the top ruins the list imo.

Technically, I am counting down but at the end it will look like I counted up perhaps.  I guess it is all about presentation but I prefer to look at the top 10 right away with decent text about each game usually if I see lists in magazines.  It all comes down to personal preference.  I am too lazy to even type any description about them in the thread we post them.



#47 Transport tycoon played on PC, released 1994

It was a close tie with rollercoaster tycoon but transport tycoon wins a spot on my top 50. Never after playing this have I played a tycoon game of similar scope. You play on a huge map with multiple cities and villages, starting out with a couple of busses and trucks, slowly making your way up to building your own roads, railways, altering terrain, digging canals for shipping lanes and constructing huge airport hubs. Cities grow, industries and resources appear and disappear over time. One play through will last you for a week going over a period from 1930 until 2050. Very addictive, and it still has an active community in OpenTTD
