Definitely want the Hydro Thunder Remake. That game was the best in the arcade back in the day. I may also pick up MNC because I love TF2 and it seems pretty similar. =D
Don't forget Driver, Donkey Kong Country, Also, think about all the arcade remakes, similar to reboots, this year. Earthworm Jim, Serious Sam, Hydro Thunder, & Perfect Dark...
I sure did love this game in the arcades and on my xbox..... Always enjoyed the Megaman, Warmachine, and Wolverine team up.... It never let me down.... I'm sure to get this.. =D
The Xbox simply because of the system link parties. It was the first system that got people on a craze to go to each other's houses, hook up xbox's and play all night long... And do you think the internet gaming on consoles would be what it is without the xbox starting it. And on top of that, they were like, what if we put a hard drive in a console.... Genius..... Got to love Xbox.
I could give you a couple. I miss Acclaim, had like 10 of there games. I miss 3DO, those Armymen games were so much fun. We would always do multiplayer and love it! I miss a bunch out of Westwood studios. Ever since they had to be merged into EA, the Command and Conquer series just hasn't been the same for me...
As far as franchises....We need more fighters like ClayFighter, that game was so much fun, so was Killer Instinct and Primal Rage. Great fighting games back in the day. And what about Lemmings?.. That game was a ton of fun. And Earthworm Jim? the Craziest Character ever... I miss those franchises. And I'll just throw this out there, but I played a game call Metal Warriors by Lucus Arts, and that was one of my favorites for the SNES. I would love it if they remade that. =D
I actually have a few female friends of mine that love fighting games...as long as you give them a handicap, they seem to enjoy it. Well, Soul Calibur 4 anyway.
Also true on girls not liking CoD. They were like, "Quit being mean to the little british boys!" "But he called me a loser." "I don't care, it's not nice." lol.
So I'm just going to go ahead and say I'm glad I got Fable 2 and Fallout 3 back when these all came out. I was torn between the 3 F starting games, glad I choose Fable of these. =D
