One of my favorites is some obscure game called "Defense Grid." It's digital crack. I got it as a XBLA game, but I think it's on steam also.

Forget Halo and WoW, Konoko had the real stuff gamers crave... even if she was a "Ghost in the Shell" ripoff.
Yea I loved that game too.

There was an old NES war strategy game called "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

It was pretty awesome.

That and the DOS game "Master of Orion".

I like Heros of Might and Magic (1 and 2), and Pharoah city builder game, also about once every year I pull out my old Commodore 64 and discs and play leather goddesses of phobos and nightmare on elm street for a few days for fun.

I loved loved loved the Shadow Hearts for PS2 series. Well, Shadow Hearts 1 and 2. The 3rd one was horrible.

I really wish my PS3 was backward compatible, because I would still be playing those games.

I could never figure out what to use the T remover for. Obviously, I never got far in that game. I did like making a rabbi, though

Body Harvest. That game was one of the best I've ever played for N64 and yet I'm the only one I know of who knows about it.

Didn't everyone know that Body Harvest was like a pre-requisite to the GTA series? It was actually developed by Rockstar Games but they were under a different name then.

The biggest difference obviously is that instead of the environment of gangs and inner cities, the environment is one of alien invasions. I really hope they do a graphical reboot of that game.

I remember Romance of the Three Kingdoms. They actually had several sequals for both NES and moving up to the PS1 platform (I am assuming it was a popular game in Japan and easily exported over). In fact it is avaible as a download game on the PSN.

Older games in the Dragon Warrior Series (I to VI).. I loved the text-based combat system. Although the newer systems still follow the text-based battles, the graphics and special effects ruined it. I've installed them on my smartphone and play them using an emulator, something that can't be done with the newer ones.
