Vick's Video Game Picks By   [25 more lists]

Games I used to be completely obsessed with. I'm going with just a few for now, but we could add PLENTY more. I mostly ranked them by hours of gameplay, though I think Lethal Enforcers should get special recognition for introducing me to the wonderful, wonderful world of arcade light-gun games. And few people might remember Comix Zone on Genesis, but that was one of the most ingenious games when it first came out. Show it some love.

    HOLY C**P! I had totally forgotten about this game and my brother and I used to be obsessed with it. Very interesting 3rd person action/strategy game. So awesome. Makes me want to get an emulator just thinking about it

    I can't believe this game was on here...takes me back to very special days one summer with my bro long ago. Such an imaginative game, it really doesn't get the credit for design, gameplay, and art that it should.

    The House of the Dead at 5/19/2009 1:10 PM
    A title best played in the dark with a friend. It's rapid fire shooting and body dismemberment is rivalled only by the sheer stupidity of its storyline and dialogue. Fun for the whole family!

    Strangely enough, one of my first memories of playing video games goes back to playing this one...I remember it being just weird enough and frustrating enough to suck me in for hours!

    First introduction into the light gun genre as it grew up...this ain't duck hunt, it's like being right in the middle of a horribly cheesy, late 80s action flick. Which is, of course, where every 11 year old boy wants to be.

    See House of the Dead above, and multiply it by 3 times the ridiculousness. There you go.

    Gameplay awesome, story so freakin hackneyed and no one talks about it. They ripped off the easiest sci-fi battle conventions. Still, great game
