The thread's title is ambiguous, but I read it as "games for classic consoles", not "classic games for any console". A classic console would be, I suppose, anything up to the 5th gen (Sat, N64 PS1).NightmareLuna said:Bayonetta
Some might not have endured their quality for a long period of time compared to the old games... But they have enough to make them classics, plus they will endure for many, many years to come.
Oh shit. I mean Soul Calibur original then. I get confused because of Soul EdgeDeadlyYellow said:Yeah. Once you ignore Link, Spawn, and some other Tekken fighter.ACman said:Soul Calibur 2 (No shitty guest characters)
As for me:
Chrono Trigger
Earthbound
Sonic 3 and Knuckles
Ristar
Terranigma
Well according to you, 4 generations ago. Or just genesis...SageRuffin said:When you say "classic", how many generations back are we looking at?
Ah, fuggit. This'll be easy either way...
5) Sonic the Hedgehog
4) Sonic the Hedgehog 2
3) Vectorman 2
2) Vectorman
1) Sonic 3 & Knuckles
This game was amazing and i still sometimes go back and play it. (The genesis collection on psp/ps2/ps3 has it... don't judge me)Snotnarok said:Phantasy Star IV- Better than Final Fantasy of the era, it conveyed story far better in cutscenes. So when someone joined the party? You met them, you know them and when well...
When a hero in the game died? It was actually moving because you saw in a comicbook like cutscene the character say their last words and die, not just flicker away as a sprite or turn 90 degrees. Then the aftermath of the heroes morning the loss of a friend, tears down their cheeks. This game really let you get connected to the characters in ways that simple sprite games just didn't do.
"Well according to you"? Does my list bother you? You asked what were my top 5 classic games, and there they are.rekabdarb said:Well according to you, 4 generations ago. Or just genesis...SageRuffin said:When you say "classic", how many generations back are we looking at?

Anyways i have to agree with like the third postThis game was amazing and i still sometimes go back and play it.

I didn't really play many games on genesis era/previous. Mainly because i was like 3 when the ps1 came out (1994... according to wikipedia) But i'll try to keep as many as i can from that generation.
Shining Force 2-Tactical game that i still consider to be one of the best turn based games. Don't think it's as RNG friendly as Fire Emblem.
X-men(genesis)- That was a good game right...? Right?
Beyond Oasis- This RPG while somewhat lacking in story (if i can recall) had fun and addicting gameplay.
And last but not least
Gunstar Heroes! Oh man mindless countless hours have been drained into this game that i didn't even own. Me and my brother had to save up our money to rent it from blockbuster. And 5 bucks to 2 kids who don't get allowance or lunch money is damn hard. Still consider that to one of the better shooters i've played as well. Go out and play it on the wii. Not like yours is getting used atm. only 8 dollars
