Hybrid Heaven was an enjoyable game, I must admit. Freedom Fighters was pretty "wonky" to play and got me pretty frustrated, but I beat it.

Hmm....forgotten game... Vigilante 8 on the N64/PS1 was alright.
Bangai-O on the Dreamcast was fun to me.

There is this Sega Saturn game where you throw CDs and listen to Aerosmith but I can NEVER remember what it was called.

Virtua Cop needs a comeback.

Videogames seemed so cool back then, its different now. Too much money and graphical debates.

 

And you get props for mentioning Hybrid Heaven... cool game though i never beat it.

And I'm pretty sure that Saturn game ur talking about was a port of the old arcade game Revolution X... that's the only Aerosmith game I know of besides the new Guitar Hero edition LoL.

Keeping with the obscure N64 games theme.... Winback from Koei (i think) was a pretty cool third person stealth game that was kind of a rip off of MGS but fun nonetheless... I think they remade it on PS2 also.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

Tomba!

It was reminiscent of MGS, graphically, but the gameplay was the cover-and-shoot style that would later be much-heralded in Gears of War--there was virtually no sneaking in any of the versions/sequels. The levels were also laid out in an odd, puzzle-esque, fashion (insofar as you never simply made your way from point A to point B--there was always some strange layout to the area you were in that forced you to navigate it like a rat in a maze).

I'm also surprised to see as much praise for Hybird Heaven on this thread as I was under the general impression that those that had played it thought it was pretty lousy though I enjoyed most every minute of it (it's part of the Konami Holy N64 trinity: HH, CV: LOD and Goemon Great Adventure).

Also surprised to see some love for Body Harvest, another underrated gem. The only question is: how long before someone (other than me) mentions Space Station Silicon Valley?




^^^ I also have Body Harvest but never beat it... DMA worked on that game, it was basically GTA3 with aliens before GTA3 even existed.

And I've never played Space Station Silicon Valley but alot of people have praised it.

Next up... Jet Force Gemini!

**** that. Blastcorps always gets a mention from yours truly.  One of the best "sweaty palms" games of that gen.

Yep--I was actually privvy to some of the design doc for part 2...which never happened :(




Homeworld (PC)

Battlezone (PC)


While those two are probably not exactly forgotten they manage to escape any media attention and I've noticed them being excluded from lists they often should be a part of whether it be about game genres or some other things.

thanks to m$ for buying the third installment and fckin up the desire of the game(3rd)



Fear Effect was great on the PSX. However, a lot of gamers have never heard of title or have a bad perception of the game having only played Fear Effect 2. Fear Effect was one of the few titles that used multiple discs, four to be exact.
