Stunt Race FX looks horrendous these days and dodge at the time (but given credit for 3D-ness, obv). But was fun to play.

Race or Racer? I only experienced the latter. It was cool.

Herzog Zwei on megadrive was AMAZING, especially 2 player split screen where you were a transformer plane man, and you woud create small armies to kill eachothers bases... That honestly did look crap, but one of the best games of my childhood:

Sujin Taisen. Like Mitchell's own Polarium one look at the game hardly inspires any confidence, but it's one of the smarter turn based puzzlers I've played in recent times.

It's a huge shame that Nintendo WFC got turned off after the GameSpy thing, as the online multiplayer for this was terrific.

I thought Goldeneye looked great at the time!

It looked rubbish and played rubbish too. Sorry to everyone who somehow put in the, presumed, many, many hours required to learn how to control an FPS using a single analogue stick, but it was a terrible idea which should probably never have been released into the world.

The core gameplay has certainly aged, but the level design certainly hasn't. It's even fresher now given FPSes stopped following the GoldenEye formula after Halo and (later still) Call of Duty 4.

There was a great piece about how Bunker 2 is one of the best levels ever designed in the GameCentral inbox, I'll try and fish it out later and post it here. It makes a really great point.
