Games that flew under the radar

one of my favorite often-overlooked games for the DC:



shame they havent come up with a GC port/sequel for it yet, has some of the most hilarious gameplay around (boar-back boulder soccer, anyone?)

 

Undercover Kei

Hey Yakumo, you like Under Cover Key?, most people think its crap. I like it too, hehe. I guess its an acquired taste.

I must recommend a game called Getter Love. It is a dating sim/board game for N64. It is a pretty fun game, especially with a few people. The graphics are great and the charater designs are fun.



Another over looked game is Tetris 64 w/Bio Sensor. This is a normal Tetris game, with all the levels and fun of other Tetris games, but with a twist. You hook the sensor up to your ear and it uses your pulse to ramp up the speed of the game.

I'm having to agree with A.Snow on Skygunner - if you're in need of some goofy, semi-Panzer Dragoon-style aerial shenanigans, I highly recommend that one.

Also, if you're a fan of 2D fighting games, I highly recommend you pick up Guilty Gear X (Dreamcast or PS2, Dreamcast preferably) or Guilty Gear XX #reload on PS2. This has to be the greatest and most beautiful fighting game ever made, and it puts Capcom's efforts to shame.

And if you're a fan of tiny-spaceship shooters, you owe it to yourself to pick up R-Type Final on PS2 - it's beautiful, hard, and you can't say no to 101 unlockable ships.

And to break away from PS2 recommendations, get Gunstar Heroes for the Sega Genesis/Megadrive. It's a sidescrolling shooter/beat-em-up in the vein of Contra (well, sortof) done by the venerable Treasure. The simultaneous 2-player action is where it really shines, as you can toss your buddy around as a weapon and the amount of stuff exploding onscreen doubles.

And finally, if you're looking for something portable, get Super Ghosts And Goblins on GBA. But don't throw your Gameboy against the wall while playing it - the game is still damned hard.

And it also has a very dark colour pallete = USELESS for the old GBA

Dreamcast Re-Volt. Hard as hell, but ful and very beautiful to look at. Some of the best gfx on the DC I think. everyone should ive it a go. I mean, it's only £1.50 Also, Silicone Vallet on the N64 isn't bad.

I actually played Bishi Bashi. At first I thought it was a vertical shooter but turned out to be a party game.

Two great games that went under the radar are:


-Hey You Pickachu. I own it and its lots of fun. Now you might be thinking that there is Seaman for the DC but I know a lot of people who own that game and not many people own the N64. On top of that, its is a fun game.

-Worms World Party (or any of the worm games). Sorry but those party games you guys listed aren't as fun as this one. What's great about World Party in particular is that its VERY addictive and easy to play. On top of that, the worms curse at you if you screw your turn, etc. Another great feature is that it can be played in multiple languages.
