Probably because it's a gem, but most definitely not a hidden one.

Still one of my favorite third person shooters of all time.[/QUOTE]

Played it on Gamecube. Was one of those random [I]since you've behaved, you can pick a game[/I] games I got one time. Finished it and still remember some sections quite well in my mind.

Lego games by Lego Media. Pretty much all of them that I had. That includes Racers 2, Alpha Team, Creator: Harry Potter, Island and Island 2, Stunt Rally, Loco... oh my

I never see people talk about this game and it saddens me.

Every building in the game is destructible, you can call in airstrikes whenever you want, and it has a sick ass card themed hitlist for you to take down. So sad that the sequel turned out to be shitty in comparison.

I used to have tons of old macintosh shareware discs with fun games and clones on them. I could make this list twice as long but I don't wanna do that, I grew up with a lot of obscure titles. I also used to collect PS1 demo discs which is where I found out about a lot of cool under-the-radar PS1 titles too.

This game was awesome, it was like mario party meets spore only before spore was a thing.

Probably posted already but me and my friends spent a lot of time in this (maps with starships especially) and it also started my internet interaction with people.

Just a few picks. Listening to their soundtracks brings up so many pleasant memories.

I wonder where my shareware CDs are, though. I wonder about the same thing with my [B]FLOPPY-FUCKING-DISCS[/B] with awesome .arj games you've probably never even heard of. Sadly can't recall any names as their folder names were abbreviations.

I tried to find it but I couldn't. I used to play the hell out of a game that I thought was called "Sim Cars" but I guess it wasn't. You could customize your car and drive around a ton of cities and put weapons and shit on your car, it was great. There was a delivery gamemode where you drove like a shitty beetle around or a souped up 18 wheeler. it was so fun. I wish I could find it again.

I hadn't actually played this game much long before, but I did watch some of my older brothers playing this game with some friends and they were playing CTF on the Xbox. That got me interested in the game, but unfortunately, I couldn't find out the name of that game (I didn't bother asking, for some reason, and they didn't seem to have played it mich where I was) until semi-recently.

I remember around the time this came out and my cousin and I got really into it. The second game was near impossible to find, so I never got to play it or any of the others. No idea what happened to my copy. Wish I could have finished the series...

My first strategy game ever, this game was fucking dope. Still is, I played it a few months ago and it kicks ass.

When I was a young-un, the only videogames I played were LEGO Alpha Team, Freddi Fish, some old spiderman game (I never actually played it, I just fucked around swinging on webs and punching literally the first five enemies in the intro level, I don't remember much of the rest of the game or if I ever bothered to get any further). Then, I met my friends in around 5th grade and we all started playing Halo, then I went onto Half Life 2 and Half Life 2: Deathmatch (Literally my favorite game through middle school, besides Halo of course).

Its so very 90s.
Though I have to laugh at that little blurb on the cover.
"More than your average C&C clone!"
Still kinda a backhanded compliment.

[QUOTE=MrBond;46648233][IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/b/bc/Psi-Ops_-_The_Mindgate_Conspiracy_Coverart.png[/IMG]

very unique game for its time[/QUOTE]

This! Got to be one of my most played games on ps2, I just loved the physics. Spent hours in that training room or whatever it was where you just pick enemies to spawn and fight them off in waves with loads of stuff to throw around.

THIS! My, this thread is making my nostalgia explode everywhere. Would love to see a next gen version of either of these games. 'Specially Psi-Ops cause the ending was like the biggest cliffhanger ever and they never made the sequel.

Did anyone else ever play this too? I loved this game.

I remember playing this. It was hidden for sure, but a gem?

Possibly.

Not the first game I got though.

This is the first game I can remember playing, I was 4 years old.
Pretty incredible how this simple platformer pretty much developed my passion for games.

Holy fuck, had no idea what I was doing but I adored this game. I couldn't even read and I managed to somehow play it.

Took me so long to just find the name of this one.

Another game I had no idea what was going on, was just too young but loved it.

Brilliant thread by the way. Bringing up some great memories!

Wasn't really a gem or anything and I only had a demo on the playstation but, this is the only game I've ever played with my dad.

The feels of these games!

[Blitzkrieg Zero]

They haven't aged well :v:, but these were the games I loved to played as a kid.
