You're missing Prince of Persia 2, unless it's off camera there.

It didn't sound like it was worth picking up. Do you like it?

Well, the SNES version isn't necessarily the best port, but POP2 never had many ports, the Genesis version got canceled, so I'd say it's worth picking up. You have all the other cinematic platformers, it's time for POP2.

Most of the NES games I see in top lists don't really do it for me. I'm more into the late era games like Crystalis, DuckTales 2 and TMNT 3.

I've only made it some or the way through the original Metroid. It was ok. I've no desire to play any of the rest of the series.
I’ve never been able to play any Metroid game for longer than five minutes. I’ve tried to play the original multiple times because of the clout it totes. I do not enjoy non linear 2d. 

 

You should give Super Metroid a chance. The mapping and save points make it far more forgiving and easier to navigate than the original.

I don't usually care for non-linear 2D either, btw.


Same. Super Metroid is likely one of my favourite games and I can't really think of another non-linear 2D game I even like. For example, I've tried to play SoTN so many times and just can't get into it.
I have tried super Metroid and didn’t seem to care for it either, although I have only attempted to play it once.

I have tried to play blaster master numerous times because of the clout it totes as well and can’t get more than five minutes in before I’m done. 

i think the original TLOZ is the only non linear 2d game I can think of that I enjoy. I think it’s because of the top down perspective versus the side scrolling view. The top down view just makes more sense to me for a non linear 2d experience. 

 

You should give the GBA metroids a try.  They're much more linear than the NES, GB and SNES games.  They're broken down into much more descrete areas to explore and Zero Mission even directs you where to go next. 


Also, River City Ransom is way overated.

Funny.. that's exactly why I don't really dig the GBA versions of Metroid.

Yeah im gonna agree with you on this. I find the dialouge to be quite funny and the game is more interesting and overall less frustrating then some of the later installments of the 3D series.

Woah. I can't even begin to fathom this. Though my favorite 3D Sonic is also one not considered one of the best - the Wii U version of Lost World. (The 3DS one is far inferior, despite somehow getting marginally better reviews)

Metroid 2 (GB) is pretty linear, by Metroid-standards...  (it just doesn't have the helpful map markers of the GBA games)

You may have enjoyed it as a kid more than you would as an adult picking it up for the first time.   I enjoyed it as a kid (but I had a code that was even better than "Justin Bailey"; all you had to do was get the ice gun, energy block, and add some more missiles and you were good to go on beating the second Mother Brain).

I think lost world is quite alright aswell, but i do hate the villians. Part of the problem i feel is that the game came right after sonic generations. Also for lost world (3ds) i could not stand the sphere challenges at all.

I like Street Fighter Ex3.

I did not like Super Punch-out!!

I liked Star Wars Obi-Wan, but I hated Jedi Knight II after loving Jedi Knight.

The GameCube was the best console of that generation.

Games are generally too much of a time suck these past generations. I understand paying for value, but I have a family now, and I want to be able to pick up games and beat them in a few hours or be able to pick them up where I left them without forgetting the story or where I've been.


Edit: Oh, and I hate games like Destiny. I put a lot of hours into that game only to realize how much it felt like a job to do my daily, weekly, nightfall, raids, etc every week. Finally, I just said all this grinding is not fun.
