There are a lot of old games that I'd love to see Quick Look Throwbacks of.  I kind of wish that they could do them on a more regular basis.

.. why such random games? They usually do a throwback to tie into something. Well, apart from Incredible Crisis.
 
And why the N64 Superman? We all know its bad, just watching Jeff or someone trying to play it would be boring.

PC, or N64 version?
 
Why did they make an N64 version of Daikatana?

Give some attention to the sleeper hit MediEvil for the PSOne (1998) for a Quick Look Throwback.

Nobody, and I mean nobody, should ever play The Simpsons Wrestling game. Even as a massive Simpsons fan, I will say that game is an abomination. Not even funny, just shitty.

I so hope they read this, CDI sounds like a great idea, also I don't think watching Jeff play Superman 64 would be boring, and it would tie in to the Superman movie

@BeachThunder:  The answer to that question is simple.

The only real answer to a throwback is Grim Fandango.

Didn't Ryan at some point get a copy of "Michigan: Report from Hell"? I would absolutely love to watch the guys try to play this.

While the Giant Bomb guys don't seem too thrilled about the Nintendo 64, I would love to see them fight their way through Blast Corps if that was possible. Seeing commentary on a bitch of a level like Diamond Sands has some great potential. And that fucking dumptruck, Backlash.

This thread just made me think that QLTs could totally become the new Broken Pixels. Except without Seanbaby which would suck. I would personally like to see last generation games turned into Throwbacks; Geist, Killer7, Beyond Good & Evil, Eternal Darkness, etc.

@Cerberus3Dog: Killer7 would be awesome. That was a weird game in every aspect of it, but I liked it. The ending was especially fun if you didn't think too hard about it. That one blind Smith reloaded with his feet. Heh.

Why is it that most people seem to only want the GiantBomb crew to do Throwbacks of bad games?  I would much rather see them play quirky, obsucre, or just plain good games from the past than beat the dead horse that is Superman 64, the CDi, or Daikatana some more. 
 
That being said, I would love to hear the guy's thoughts on some of the older survival horror games, like Resident Evil 1-3, Silent Hill, and maybe a Clocktower or two. And of course, anything that spreads the gospel of System Shock 2 to the masses is okay by me.

How did I not post in this before? There are tons of games I'd like them to do old school Quick Looks of, but I'll limit it to the obscure stuff and just recommend any Cho Aniki game, simply because their reactions would be hilarious/horrifying.
