I still prefer it to Half Life 2 as it feels more like a 'game' whereas HL2 starts to do this half film, half novel thing and is a lot more 'real'. Just not as fun IMO, plus you don't get the Egon/Gluon Gun so why bother?
I see Kollarn mentioned Sands of Time there. By fuck I loved that game. Did a wonderful twist on narration that fitted its trappings brilliantly. The Prince must go down as being one of the best written characters in games, surely?

I thought it was a better game. A lot more challenging than SMW, iirc.Â
I'm tempted to do another list of favourite games. Over 3 decades of games into a list of 10?! Very hard.

Never played the DS version. IIRC the Xbox Mega Drive Collection didn't really work right, you could unlock knuckles in Sonic 2 or 3 but I couldn't work out a way to play it as one big game. Needs to be done on a Mega Drive really.

Probably not much help - but Sonic Jam on Sega Saturn lets you play the Sonic Games as on the MD - with cartridge lock on options. It also gives you the option for spin dash on Sonic 1 , AND gives you TT modes for each level too - really nice compilation that was.

3. Dark Souls
4. Silent Hill 2
5. Lone Survivor
6. A Link to the Past

Does that have anything to do with what you said, liveinadive?This compilation was officially announced on December 2, 2009 by Sega of America and was released March 2, 2010, although news of this compilation first broke when it was classified by the Australian Government's OFLC. It features two extra lock-on modes from the originals, which allows the player to play as Knuckles in Sonic 2 and to play the complete version of Sonic 3 (titled "Knuckles in Sonic 3" as opposed to the original "Sonic 3 & Knuckles" title). Sonic 1, 2 and Knuckles (without lock-on) receive the addition of a save option; while players can "save anywhere" as billed, they must restart the act in which they saved- they are however, allowed to keep their score and Chaos Emeralds from when they saved, as well as any extra lives and continues earned.
