Ooh this is a nice topic and I will spend 5 minutes of my life replying to it Street Fighter 2 Do I need an explanation? It was the basis of most fighting games from then on and is still enjoyable today Super mario bros/world Introduced the first great platform game and is still enjoyable today. Ninja Gaiden I still haven't played it myself but it was wow for me Phantasy Star series and Shining Force series Both provided excellent story lines and awesome RPG elements/battle FF7 A love/action/comedy story all in one. Probably one of the greatest RPGs out there that changed the face for RPG games today Max Payne Provided the Bullet time mod. Now you can see it everywhere which is kinda boring nowadays Marvel vs Capcom Team switch feature, proved that 2 companies can make a game toghether using their own characters to face each other Half life One of the best FPS out there. It included a extensive, continuing storyline with the notorius Gordon Freeman and G-MAN. Also, many multiplayer mods were made that are ranked the best in some gaming sites Metal Slug Self-explanatory Chrono Trigger First Game that actually used the element of time and went extensively into it. Still lotta fun Sonic the hedgehog Gee I love this game. What can't you love about a blue hedgehog and YOU CAN'T DIE UNLESS YOU HAVE NO RINGS
