    Mega Man 6.
    Why? it is completely perfect!

    I know, I know, I'm talking about a franchise with a big name, but no-one but me cares about it.
    If you meant only games without enough sequels, then...
    Light Crusader, Pulseman, Alien Soldier and Gleylancer on the Sega Genesis.

    I guess I should go to sleep and add some more games here tomorrow.

    Oh, and, Aaron Lemcke, you'd not believe how many actually love Majora's Mask.
    It's an under-loved game only if you compare it to the rest of the games in the franchise, but it still gets more love than 75% of the games out there...

    Jersey Devil PS1 = Other than the odd Auto Jump when you run off platforms its a great game, Hell its rather hardcore too! How Hardcore you say? well they include in the box a walkthrough for the first level as well as the manual!

    I didn't enjoy it because it was way too easy, and just felt like of slapped together. I still play it from time to time, but it's not a regular title that gets popped into my NES. For the Mega Man series, that goes to 2, 3 and 5.

    Rudra no Hihō, known in English as Treasure of the Rudras. It was a Final Fantasy-esque 16-bit RPG created by Square for the Super Famicom. Unfortunately it was never brought to the states, although a complete English fan-translation has been created.

    You start the game out by selecting one of three main characters. Each character has their own storyline. All three must be completed, in any order, to finally unlock the final chapter and complete the game.

    The battles are horizontally oriented, much like the 16-bit era FF's. Although TotR's battles, especially boss battles, are no cake walk. You must learn what elements certain enemies are weak against, or else you'll never prevail.

    The very best, and coolest feature in this game though, is how magic is learned. You learn magic spells by typing out a word. So for instance you could type out a word such as fire, and it will be a fire spell. You could type out your name, and when the spell is cast your name, in large font, might fly out and collide with the enemy. I spent hours on end finding out different spells by typing all sorts of words. Even prefixes, such as adding mega or super to your spell can power it up or enable it to target multiple foes.

    I just always thought this game deserved an official port by Square-Enix, Especially since the spell-creation system is still so unique, even compared to the games today.

    Hey, I love Mega Man 6, and I find it to be easily in the top 3 of the Classic Series games (the others being Mega Man 2 and 3).

    Skies of Arcadia. I ask all of my friends who ever owned a dreamcast, and they never ever heard of it. It's heartbreaking really.

    I've played a bit of it; felt like a generic RPG, only with the job turned to pirate and having floating islands. Which I think was done better in Bahamut Lagoon.

    I wasn't aware we were supposed to be critiquing people's suggestion for games that deserve more credit than they should. Oh wait, we are not. If we were, I would be crapping on Bahamut Lagoon and the unnecessary post about Tomb Raider.

    Another game that should be given more mentions is S.L.A.I . It was a sequel to Phantom Crash and it's a pretty cool 3rd person robot game. You were able to cloak yourself and modify your parts, but you didn't have that many parts to modify. It's worth giving it a play every now and then.

    That's funny, I never saw anybody saying not to be giving opinions on games people say.

    Oh noes, I went against the system and did something different. I must be a horrible person!

    Ghost Trick. It's just reached 6 months since it was released, but it hasn't seen very good sales despite its high ratings from critics.

    Vikings like , do you?

    It's not that. There is a difference between giving your opinion and only giving negative opinions. If you gave both a positive and a negative throughout the times you decided to say something, that's fine. Only saying negative things can discourage people to write their favorite games they think don't get the attention they feel it deserves. That was what I was getting at.

    One more game: Destiny Of An Emperor is a game worth checking out for the NES. It has a simple, yet unique battle menu that can be set to auto when you don't need to decide every single action and the recruitment system makes it pretty entertaining. Don't forget the final boss code though, it's the only way to beat him.

    Any game can be picked apart, do it with depth if you're going to.

    Well I'm not sure how known it is here, but when I mention the old dragon warrior monsters to people I usually get a blank stare. lol. I loved this game back in the day because it was a nice sort of kiddish pokemon type game that was based around the dragon warrior games. And I loved Jersey Devil for the PS
