Other undraft games:

Tecmo Bowl/Tecmo Super Bowl
Actraiser
Donkey Kong Country 2
Super Smash Bros Melee
The World Ends With You
Super Mario Bros 2
Super Mario Sunshine
etc

Crazy Taxi would've been a pick I could support.

I've never played Metroid Prime 2. I've actually never played any Metroid games past Super Metroid.

All the other games are personal favorites of mine. Although I would've picked Last Blade 2 over Garou as a personal favorite.

Michael Corvin 12-15-08 01:40 PM

Ooh, Actraiser. Good one.

edstein 12-15-08 01:56 PM

Others on my list:

Hot Shot Golf (PSP)
Killzone Liberation (PSP)
Powerstone 2 (Dreamcast)
Warhawk (Playstation)

I can't believe there wasn't a single Pokemon game taken. Next to Mario games nothing else comes close in total sales. I thought about taking Diamond but I didn't wan't to take a chance with this crowd.

mattysemo247 12-15-08 02:00 PM

I also had:

Riddick (XBox)
Tekken Resurrection (PSP)
Burnout Legends (PSP)
Saints Row 2 (360)
Fable 2 (360)
Ninja Gaiden Sigma (PS3)
Boom Blox (Wii)

And there are 2 games on my chosen list I didn't play. Zelda:TP & Resistance 2.

Wind Waker wasn't taken? Fuck, how did I miss that?

cruzness 12-15-08 02:36 PM

You want to trade Twisted for it? ;)

So has everyone owned or even played every game on their list? I have with one caveat, I played Tomb Raider Anniversary and not the original. So technically 9/10.

Not me. I didn't really game much on consoles between the late 80s and 2006, so there is a whomping-big hole in my experience.

lordwow 12-15-08 03:26 PM

I own/have owned 8, I've played through 1 (Final Fantasy Tactics) that a friend let me borrow, and I don't own 1 I suppose (Portal) because I have the Orange Box.

Raul3 12-15-08 03:39 PM

Yeah, I can't believe no one chose a Pokemon game either.

I didn't want to take a chance either. :D

From my list I've played 7 games.

edstein 12-15-08 11:06 PM

Another game franchise missing from these lists is Madden. Why the hate for sports games? [flame suit] I'd take any Madden game over any Final Fanstay game any day of the week. [/flame suit]

Raul3 12-16-08 12:14 AM

Agree. I actually find RPGs really boring, and most here are big fans. The only one I've enjoyed is Fallout 3, and a lot of RPG purists don't like that game.

So, I'd put Madden and FIFA over almost any RPG any time. Why? Because I've played most of them and have had a lot of fun with them. I can't say the same about RPGs.

lordwow 12-16-08 06:34 AM

I picked NFL 2k5, which was one of (if not the best) football game ever, but it seems to be killing me in the voting. I've had 2 or 3 people vote against me partially because I have a sports game (or two).

What are you talking about? We are tied.

He's saying he'd be smokin' your ass if not for 2k5.

I wish more people voting would post reasoning behind picking one person over another.

It would be nice to know.

lordwow 12-16-08 08:23 AM

Well, there's just been a lot of discussion about why more sports games weren't chosen... but it seems to me that my sports games are hurting me more than anything else.

I agree. I like what The Bus is doing. I actually took some of the comments from last time and intergrated it in my choices this time (not too many RPGs).

I thought maybe it was my list that was hurting you more than anything else.
