Damn, I dont have any games like that. I am kind of wishing I still had my DC with Alien Front Online. Well, I guess its either Wind Waker or maybe I will try Mario Sunshine.

Sounds like someone needs some Bomberman. Or maybe Red Faction?

Hmmm interesting. Maybe I should take a run to Blockbuster and see what they have for used games. What system is Red Faction for?

Red Faction 1 & 2 are both for PS2, I think. Also for PC.

One of the best and most overlooked games ever. I want a new one, but I guess it did not make enough money to make a second game.

Are you kidding me? it sold millions to game-starved N64 owners. Personally, i thought it sucked.

Mass Destruction was the last best mindless shooter i played.

Yeah, I would love to see Rare do a sequel on the Xbox.

So what IS rare up too? All we get is an update to Conker and a cartoony pic of Joanna? Didn't Kameo appear with a MS label? No wonder Nintendo turned 'em loose. Maybe they will release ten games within a span of six months two years from now and then go back into hibernation?

That was quite possibly one of the worst games on the PS1. Although there were tons of bad games for the PS1.

Apocalypse rocked!

For mindless shooting and blowing up, I always recommend Serious Sam for xbox.

Aside from the absolutely terrible likeness of Bruce Willis (laser facial scan... yeah, whatever) and the endlessly repeated catch phrases on the soundtrack, Apocalypse was otherwise a great mindless shoot-em-up.

I would also give this one a shot... you seriously do not have to think about *anything* while playing this game... it's a nice change

Personally I always like Grand Theft Auto for mindless killing action, especially with a tank. Muahahaha!

Its always fun to fire up Rogue Leader, Ikaruga, or Bomberman Generations for blowing up stuff!

Contra: Shattered Soldiers is another good one for mayhem.

Whenever mindless blowing up is on the agenda I always end up breaking out Super Smash TV for the SNES. And sometimes Loaded for the Ps1.
