Step On It!, Mac, 1996

By far the most obscure game on my list, Step On It! released solely for the Mac in 1996 is an action/puzzle game based on the older, more well known game Solomon's Key released in the Arcades and for the Nintendo Entertainment System shortly after. The gameplay is exactly the same, and much of the levels are either inspired by contemporaries in Solomon's Key, or blatant copies altogether. The levels all contain one screen, on which the player must avoid enemies and obstacles to obtain the key, which opens the door to exit the level and continue to the next. To do this, the player must create or remove blocks and use them as platforms. This way, you can create bridges, stairs or direct the enemies away from places you don't want them to be.

Don't let the 'Toy Story'-style visuals (probably not coincidental since that movie was still quite new at the time) fool you. This game is ridiculously hard, much like the game it was based on. It's definitely one of the hardest game I ever played, I never beat it, and I never will. Zelda II? Hah! Easy as pie compared to this. I'm not even sure how many levels there are, as there's next to no information to be found on the internet about this game. It's on the list because it's extremely memorable to me and for all it's challenge, still a lot of fun. It feels like it was the day before yesterday when me and my family were taking turns trying to get as far as possible in this game. So memorable, that I can drum up many of the sound effects any time. I even remember where a lot of the secret coins are, in fact, I'm just going to go upstairs and boot up that old '95 Performa Mac right now!

Game #48

Don't be afraid people. This next game is a whole lot more well known. It is actually among the best sold games of all time, though not quite.

In a shocking turn of events, this game's antagonist (?) was announced to take aim in another famous game.

Muhaha .

No, only the first two are like this, from now on, you can know all the rest.

Well, maybe, there's one more in a couple of days >D ...

So noone guessed my #49. It was Bit Trip BEAT.

#48 will have an easier hint so people will get it. If you want to play with clowns, play with teddy bears and watch some Japanese television, well you've come to the Wright place.

Uhhh, Persona?

Oh Wright ¬_¬

Although my avatar is still a trap!

Duck Hunt?

Duck Hunt it is .

geez you like this game for the exact OPPOSITE reasons I do.  The MP was fun but like any online MP that is not co-op I just lost interest after a couple weeks.  Meanwhile the SP, like any great cinematic game, I can replay infinitely and just get unlimited hours out of.  I replay on easy now that I have the platinum but the set-pieces, solid gameplay, and story are worth experiencing again every time.  I like rewatching great movies too but everyone seems to react differently when I say I like replaying cinematic games.  To be clear though the reason TLoU is great is because it has fairly open gameplay and the campaign always plays differently due to letting you tackle things how you want and use supplies in various ways.  It's a gamers game in both SP and MP that happens to have amazing cinematic elements as well.
