I encouraged people to take Banjo Kazooie pages and pages ago--what a fun game.

Didn't someone pick NBA Jam? If not, holy crap.
Someone mentioned it around the time NHL 95 was picked, but I don't think anyone took it.

Glad to see another Virtua Fighter 2 fan on here, there was a simplicity to it that I loved. No projectiles or magic, just different body shapes/fighting styles.
It was silky smooth at the time too.

There are a couple of teams that have only 1-2 games that I've played. My calculus of whom I will vote for is going to be rough.

Nobody mentioned Myst.

I'm guessing that's because of the shame you all feel because of never coming close to beating it.

The genre died too. On-rail shooters don't exist anymore. Panzer Dragoon Orta was the best in genre.

I was considering Uncharted 4 but didn't think the replay value was strong enough and it wouldn't appeal to you simpletons who don't find complex treasure hunting missions accessible enough.
