Soul Calibur, Sonic Adventure, Jet Set Radio, Shenmue, and Virtua Tennis. So basically, the Dreamcast.

X-COM, The Walking Dead, Far Cry 3, Journey, and Dishonored are what I think are gonna be potential candidates.

That said, I really think the award should go to Journey or X-COM.

Bizarre Creations and Rare. I would love some more PGR, but I want the Stamper brothers back at Rare and free from Microsoft. The studio is a shell of it's former self.

Beyond Good & Evil 2 I mean we can all pretend it will happen but it won't. The trailer is like 4 years old already.

Maybe it will, maybe it won't. Ubi says that they are still working on it, but I think it will come out eventually.

Conkers Bad Fur Day, still praying. If they announce a sequel to it I will buy the next 360 in a heartbeat.

This will never happen, at least not in the capacity you hope. Chris Seavor, the voice of Conker and project lead, doesn't even work at Rare anymore. And if you follow the guy on twitter, you'll know that he has no love toward the company at all anymore.

No. They should rest it for a while, because the internet still feels very indifferent to the ME universe at this point.

So there was a thread about the original Ecco the Dolphin pretty recently and it, along with the rest of the series, was discussed as being a hard game. I remember the game being ridiculously hard myself, so I wanted to see if it was indeed as hard as I'd remembered. Turns out, it was even more difficult than I'd remembered! I hadn't played the game since back in 09' when I had acquired a Genesis for the first time, but man was it difficult! So I went about playing the rest of my collection, in a 3-4 hour burst, to see just how difficult the majority of my games were.

After Ecco, I went ahead to play the Sonic games. The first Sonic was so-so, but I felt that Sonic 2 was still awesome. Even today, I'm not to keen on the whole Tails addition, but the ability to charge up the spin attack was a godsend. I didn't even feel like I lost any speed at all. Sonic 3 was more of the same, but really fun too. They weren't to difficult, but I felt at some stages if I was going to fast and ended up falling into spikes or from drowning underwater.(Which was surprisingly macabre......)

After some Sonic, I popped in Super Hang-On. It was just as incredible as I had recalled. Not only was it fun, but the music just was perfect for flying down the road. Flying through those checkpoints with a second left was still extremely satisfying.

There was a plethora of just total crap too. Quad Challenge has always been an awful game in my mind, Pugsy was just plain weird, and those eclectic bargain priced sports games like Tommy Lasorda Baseball, and Hockey Games. Theses aren't the greatest games anymore, but they are fun to look back at, even if you can only play them for 5 minutes without getting bored.

Vectorman was a huge highlight of the festivities. Not only was it outrageous and crazy, but it looked really good too. I popped in Eternal Champions not understanding the fighting system at all, and was pleasantly surprised to have a big ass T-Rex scream, "SEGA!!!!," at me. I got way too caught up in a game of Flashback as well, which was perplexing as well as entertaining.

All in all, I just wanted to play Ecco for a while but ended up taking my collection apart. Most of what I played was garbage, but there were still a few shining moments that made the trip worthwhile. It probably isn't all that interesting to anybody that I played these old ass games with so many new ones coming out, but what the hell, it was worth it. Most of these games were still totally hard, yet despite this, I sure had a blast.

Weezer, Green Day, The Pixies, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, CCR, The Clash, Pil; but I can just keep going..................

On the other side there are bands like The Smiths, Dinosaur Jr, and Nirvana who wrote one amazing song after another.
