You forgot Twisted Metal, Grand Turismo (honestly, how could you?), Civilization, Worms and Half-life. (To name the ones I can think of off the top of my head)

I have probably played around half of those games.  And several of them are older than me!
As a side note: Super Mario Bros. and Duck Hunt eventually came out as 2 games on 1 cartridge for the NES.  I still have the controllers and gun for both games!

I love many of those games.  And actually, they now have Plug-N-Play games where you can play several games using one controller just by plugging it into the tv via AV cables.

The only thing I don't see is any Gameboy, GBA or DS games.  I'm sure there were some games that started on those consoles.

(Reads through list)

What????? No MegaMan!!!!!!!  :toughguy: :toughguy: :toughguy:

You blame me?  Remember it had to get past 10 other players before I saw the ball.

Thanks to Spidey for this sig!                                                                                                                  .

1996 - Diablo
2000 - Diablo II

Roflbot. :toot:

Anyhow, I agree with some of the people about Grand Turismo and everything. That game along with a couple others mentioned like Twisted Metal were like seriously epic. Lawl.
