As a few people said before, a regular feature of this would be great. I have so much nostalgia looking back at a lot of SNES era games, but from time to time I realize my love for certain games was misguided and they haven't stood the test of time (TMNT: Turtles in Time, Final Fight, Mortal Kombat to name a few).
On the other hand there are some gems that would be amazing games released even today (Yoshi's Island, Link to the Past, Contra III: The Aliens Wars, Earthworm Jim). And it's nice to see Genesis fanboys getting owned 15 years later!
@ pikachu2000. I think this article's title was meant as a clever way to say "hey here are the greatest and most notorious legends in gaming, but we don't want to patronize those who have been following the industry for years and have heard these stories dozens of times".
I have heard these mostly myself but it was still nice to get a recap, the Tetris one was actually mostly new to me and I quite enjoyed that documentary.
The writeup for E.T. was pure comedic genius btw, I started laughing at the remote Amazonian tribe thing and it only got better from there.
Hi Lizzie, I don't leave my house to meet girls in the real world because I am too busy smashing glass in videogames and when I'm not busy doing that some of my other pass times include watching videos of people smashing glass in videogames, and smashing glass in my basement.
Anyways, I hope (judging by this video) that you are a lonely soul like me and that by reading this in your comments section you will marry me. Or at least we could you know, go and grab a beer or something. (in a paper cup)
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. I have played and beaten every other game in the series (technically just watched the NES endings on Youtube) For some damn reason I owned this game for several years and it never came out of the package.
The sick thing is, I consider 1 and 4 to be two of my favourite games of all time.
Wow, some snippy comments today guys. You must have found a better alternate website for looking up hilarious yet educational videogame related stories and lists. Oh, that place doesn't exist and you yourself don't add one positive thing to the internets? Then shut the hell up please. Gamesradar is the cream of the crop as far as I know, and even if you don't like EVERYTHING they write, I don't see how you can come down on a simple yet fun article like this.
and i hate doing recaptcha, but "Work appear"... must be affected by the economy. Or job island.
huh, I made that same bold claim on another game that received a 3. But alas the only thing more interesting than a game that receives a 3 is a game that scores a 2. So you are not the last, and likely neither am I.
Seeing all the comments from Gamesradar staff on this article gives me an idea; you guys should host some sort of competition where eager SF players can get a chance to compete against the staff.
Yeah I see where you are going red... towards more censorship.
I'm sure to any logical discerning mind China Town wars (as with an GTA) will teach us why NOT to get into selling drugs. I mean your character is imprisoned/dies every 15 minutes, seems like a pretty good deterrent (assuming we can differentiate that real life prison doesn't only cost a small fee and you're a free man; and that death is pretty final).
And I'm happy if DS starts to break its target audience mold a bit, I'm one more exclusive from buying the damn thing.
what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
