Phantom Crash - a bunch of my friends really got into this game, but it didn't appeal to me at all. I don't recall it getting any significant coverage either. Any of you out there played this one?
"Nothing was as bad as last years shooter phase. NOTHING. Seriously the market has never been so saturated since the platformer craze of the early 90's.
P.S. You should post in GG Weekly not in the Blogs :P"
Didn't find any of the news interesting so far :P"
You have to post in the noon/afternoon that's when it is active.
"I remember the whole extreme sports craze of the late 90's/early 00's."
Yeah me too, i also remember the Matt Hofman and Kelly Slater games"

Alongside Adventures, this is the most hated Starfox game ever. I really loved it, even though it was really short, i beat it at least once a year ever since it was released, multiplayer almost every weekend with my bro and sis. And yes i loved the on-foot missions.
Everyone who got a gamecube on day one probably played this game, but it was soon forgotten once Metroid Prime, Smash Bros, Eternal Darkness, Pikmin, Mario Sunshine and others appeared. Best racing game ive played, it was impressive the first day and it still is impressive today.
Endless Ocean I was pretty much the only person in the world who was hyped for this game, i love it, beautiful, relaxing, amazing.

A lot of people enjoy Endless Ocean at Insert Coin. You know that site you should register for and post in. ;)
"Starsky and Hutch. God I loved that game. Also going back through the years, does anyone remember that old arcade Star Wars Trilogy game? That was fucking intense ^_^ And now that I think of it, Die Hard Trilogy for PSOne. I never knew anyone else who owned it, but it was a firm favourite of mine for many years."
Ahh I remember Star Wars Trilogy. Was fun aside from the horrid lightsaber control.
We all have our own cult classics when it comes to movies, books, TV, etc. But what about games?
Well I'll start off by listing my cult classics: Digimon World (Playstation)
Digimon World
Digimon World at the time (and possibly even now) was the ultimate monster raising game. The game started off by getting transported to some strange world inside of your Digimon battle toy. Inside you find out that the previous capital city is all but abandoned and strange things have been going on throughout the world. You are given a "Digimon" in which you can raise and care for as well as have it go to battle. This game took the little portable monster raising games to another whole level. It took you to a free-roaming world and a RPG like story and stat system. Besides the horrible/almost impossible evolution system this game was almost flawless. Truly a classic gem.
Snatcher (SEGA CD) Snatcher
Kojima's hidden gem. Before the epic "Metal Gear Solid" he worked on some legendary adventure games being Snatcher and Policenauts, in which the latter I've (sadly) never played. However I have played the former and it lives up to his quality and ego in every form. Obviously borrowing from Bladerunner and The Teriminator as well the game leads you onto a stunning Adventure/Light-Gun hybrid. Touhou Project 8: Imperishable Night (PC) Touhou Project 8: Imperishable Night
When asking one what there favorite shoot-em-up is, they often respond with games like "Radiant Silvergun", "Ikaruga", "DoDonPachi", and what not. However I differ. My favorite shoot-em-up is "Touhou Project 8: Imperishable Night" a freeware (in the United States at least) doujin shoot-em-up. Tight feel, tight controls, excellent level design, and epic music this game has it all.
Now that I have listed mine, what are some of your cult classics?
Rules: - The game has to be at least 3 years old. - It has to be a "lesser" known game. So you can't list games like Halo or even Skies of Arcadia or Ikaruga.
