Knight suggested β€œJet Set Rodeo”, a play on the Sega Dreamcast game Jet Set Radio (originally released in the US as Jet Grind Radio, but nobody calls it that anymore.)

I’m above average at Tetris, but terrible at Puyo Puyo. Oddly enough the Mega Drive version was the first import game I ever bought.

Most PC games I played in the 90s were with one of those Gravis pads. I later got the one that was like a PS1 controller, but I don’t remember using it much.

I have over 100 N64 games, and I can’t believe that The Next Tetris isn’t one in my collection. I have to fix that!

I always liked their 80s and 90s stuff.

I was more of a fan of Wes Malott and PDW, but you just HAD TO respect Walter Ray.

Exactly! Rarest for me, might also be my most expensive, being Super Bowling on the N64. But my next rarest might be a sealed MB MicroVision game or something weird that’s not worth all that much.

It’s not without its flaws, but I enjoy it, and it’s probably a top 5 Castlevania title for me.

They were IWGP tag champs in the early 90s, both big dudes who could do a moonsault.

I had the OG version of that T-shirt when I was a kid.

Yes. It’s on their end, I exited and resumed and it was still doing it.

He looks like he’s constipated.

Isn’t that the truth?

I use it against the twins more than any other instance in the entire game.

Sometimes they will walk right into your reverse attack.

I seriously burned a vacation day today for that reason.

I think the green mint was around, but not the blue. The scary thing is that people actually used the unflavored yellow one!

A better qualified doctor than Dr. Oz?

I only discovered it a couple months ago. I really liked it.

I was paying around $150 a month for my smartphone and my parents’ dumb phone. Phone plans are thankfully a lot different (and cheaper) now!

It was 2010 when I got my first smartphone. In hindsight, I should have left Verizon back then and saved some money!

I didn’t have a RAZR, but had the slimmer KRZR, and after that I had an Alias 2. After that I used various budget Android phones until I got an S5. Then I switched to iPhones.

I’m going to keep the original post pinned for awhile if anyone wants to see any other picks from my game collection that I love.

Gun to my head, if I had to pick oneβ€”just one game that is my all time favorite game ever, this is the game I would have to pick.

It has so much good going for it. I own it on different platforms, last time I played through it, it was the iOS version, but this PS1 copy is my original.
