Metal Arms has a ton of character and charm to it. It's also a surprisingly difficult third-person shooter. The animation was very smooth, and the main character's swappable arms gave you a lot of different weapons and tool combinations to play with.

Golden Sun (and it's follow up GS: The Lost Age) were conceived as throwbacks to good old fashioned 16-bit SNES RPGs. They succeeded brilliantly at it. The dungeons had many puzzles, ala The Legend of Zelda, while the combat was reminiscent of Dragon's Quest. However, the developers also added some modern touches to the game, like very deep character customization and impressive summoning/special attack visuals (for the GBA).

Psi-Ops looks like about a dozen other "special agent" games on the market. Even during its first level, Psi-Ops feels like a bad Splinter Cell rip-off. However, once you begin to unlock the main character's special abilities, the game becomes a lot of fun. They could've built a game off of the telekinesis power alone. The graphics, while a bit plain, ran amazingly smoothly. The effects from the powers were especially pretty to look at.

I grabbed this for $5 out of a bargain bin, expecting the ports to be crap and the presentation to be minimally done. However, Capcom did a great job with this collection, even if it highlights how quickly the series dropped off after Mega Man 3.
