Trent - Sonic the Hedgehog affiliated? I use to play that game at a friends house everyday after school when I was in the 8th grade.

Yes I am. I am old-school. It's all about Sonic. It's classic and still enjoyable.  |

Mega Man Anniversary Collection (GCN, NOT X-BOX or PS2!)
Because the Blue Bomber's true home is Nintendo. MM's 1-7 were NES games, and now 8 is one too.

Mega Man was the best back in the day
Mega Man 3 owned my life. I bought that game on Gamecube when it came out, best 30 bucks (might've been 20, I forget) I ever spent.
I can't wait for the Mega Man X Collection. It'll be here soon

I recommend Day of Reckoning and DOR II. both for gamecube and a lot better than the extremely disappointing smackdown vs Raw.

Now MM6 on the NES (YES, THE NES, NOT GAMECUBE!) owns my NES life. I also reccomend any Battletoads game. |

Resident Evil 4 for Gamecube. One of the best games I've ever played in my life. Or, The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time for N64/Gamecube. ---> It got a perfect rating on IGN, which is real hard brother.

LOZ:OOT...perfect.
I would like to add in response to Kokirin's reccomendation The Legend Of Zelda: Majora's Mask. It was definately a cool turn for the LOZ series.
I'd also like to add the Banjo-Kazooie series. It's pretty fun considering it's intended for kids. But hey, what can you do?

New recommendation:
Radiata Stories (PS2): Best RPG to come along in a long while. Plus kicking people and banging on doors never gets old. Plus it's a great story!

Hook a brother up.
List me some more N64 games that are just like Goldeneye and Perfect Dark.

There arent' really anymore besides the second Bond game on N64
The closest would probably be Quake, but you're killing monsters

You mean "007: The World Is Not Enough", right? That blew. Goldeneye rocked.
I'll have to say WWF: No Mercy was probably the best wrestling game on N64. It's still kicking more ass than the damn Smackdown series.

Another J.T. Blade Reccomendation:
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (X-Box or PS2. X-Box reccomended)
As far as GTA games go, this is awesome. You start in Compton in south-central Los Angeles (Ganton in south-central Los Santos in the game), and you can go to two other cities that resemble Las Vegas and San Fransisco. So yeah, it's a long game. And it'll keep you occupied for a good while.

Monster Rancher 2, for the OG PlayStation. But get a Game Shark first.

I'm gonna have to throw out the game thats based on a Movie...
The Warriors. You get to be a late 70's (1979 to be exact) street gang in New York. You basically go around busting ass... and every mission you usually get to be a different gang member, so you're not locked into one guy the whole time. Its a Rockstar game, so that automatically gives it credibility....
so play it, bust up rival gang members.. bust up cops.. bust up pedestrians. Mug them, steal car radios, break into shops and wreck the place and take the loot. Be completely lawless and have a good time wreaking havoc, PLAY THIS FUCKING GAME!
EDIT: I forgot to mention... after a "mission" you can look around your hangout, and play Rumble (which has a few other features), Missions that show you how the current characters got into the Warriors, free roam around Coney (your turf) or check and build your stats. Did I mention that it would be in your best interest to PLAY THIS FUCKING GAME!
