Forums - Gaming Discussion - All the those classic games you missed and why we forgot them

OK now dont get me wrong I love Nintendo, I have had every console they ever realesed (even the Virtua Boy god bless his migraine inducing cotton socks) but I am getting so very F***** Off by the polarity of opinion that we all seem to be suffering from at the moment. Yes Mario is a Classic, I love Zelda far more than my wife, and samus seems seems to be taking up half of my pornography collection. Which means I see her way more than my wife. Or my girl friend, or the cute transexual who lives down the street and smiles at me and invites me it to his/ her's house every time I go to the shop for some coffee.

BUT!!!!!!! Looking back I love and miss Qazatron, Jet Strike, Strangers Wrath, Project Slpheed, Alien Breed (Tower Assault), Escape from Butchers Bay, Blast Corps, Snake Rattle n' Roll even f****** Gun Fright for F*** Sake.

Now I'm not saying that the percieved 'classics' are not with out merit, in fact i have probably played and loved most (All) of them but why is there so little originality among the games we worship. Mario Kart is a sublime expeience but so was Worms. Mario and The Great Giana Sisters (for 2 weeks at least), R Type against Microcosm, Street Fighter Or Rise of The robots ;).

OK then Gauntlet or Chaos Engine

What about Sensi, Speed Ball, Attik Attak,even Paradroid or Saburwulf.

Every game a classic but never mentioned. Cummon people lets not forget why we fell in love with gaming in the first place.

 OK Rant over.

Tell me/us those lost treasures that you still wish you hadn't jilted at the church. For me my undying love is and all ways will be Jet Strike, the largest hardest game ever created.

You must have one, celebrate it, please. P.S. I'm so tired of Mario, Zelda and Samus (they dont swallow and none of them respect you in the morning, although I will always give Kongie a good referance) please give us all some thing new

P.P.S. Zak & Wiki Counts feel free to mention it

P.P.P.S. On the off chance that the rant doesn't get a response Sony SuX and the 360 will sell 1,000,000 next week etc, etc

Off Topic have a good Easter every one, im off to the shop to buy some Gold Blend and some Condoms, will catch you all some time on Tuesday

Whats the provacation. I love the classics that we all adore but I cry for those forgotten gems that have passed us all by

Hmm, how about Conquest of the Crystal Palace for the NES. I'm drawing a blank at the moment but I'm sure I can think of more good unnoticed games later.
