I miss 'Champions'...too bad the latest Dark Alliance remake is not so good. DnD action games have so much potential when done right.

SoTN is classic.

Also, seeing Parapa made me remember "Kick! Punch!/It's all in the mind/If you wanna test me, I'm sure you'll find..."

I loved Champions and Baldurs! My ex and I would play couch co-op all the time. Not overly complex and fairly linear too. I’d love to get back into a game like that sometime be it couch co-op or single as long as it’s not a major time suck :)

From my experience, and I have a lot, champions is a major time sink. I remember I used to play 4 player with a couple friends. I also remember the stealth section in return to arms and just brute forcing it with fire, poison, disease, and ice damage to keep the enemies stunned and slow. Trying to go with 4 people just wasn't working for us.

Champions RTA with four people was the only way to go. We did that campaign three times over, unfortunately we didn’t make it through the last one.

I lost count of how many times we played through it. But that damn stealth part with 4 people is not easy.

Indeed was a very controversial game on its day that even today it still banned in some countrie. Even tho, a Rockstar Game without being that is kinda rare, so at least they did a great job for the tone they wanted to express

We got one of our friend's dad's to buy us that for Halloween one year. We were not prepared haha. We played for about 2 hours and then just decided to walk away forever and watch Scrubs for the rest of the night :)

TycoBrahe OP t1_j26z6r2 wrote

Thank you. I think my favorite types of games in general are puzzle and platformer. But if there’s some fun relaxing co-op games or interesting mechanics (that aren’t too intense) I’m interested to try. I’m playing Ender Lilies and It Takes Two now which are both pretty fun!

Hahahaha that's awesome! I had something similar. I'm sure it's still with my giant sheet of Mortal Kombat moves and finishers.

No problem, figured I'd ask! It's one I definitely wanna add to my collection eventually and your box looked in great condition.

...also respect for Time Splitters 2, might actually be time for another playthrough lol

I probably played Dark Alliance and CoN through a dozen times each. And another ten times with friends. Those games were SO much fun.

TycoBrahe OP t1_j26zn6x wrote

It was pretty fun! I was never good at the higher levels of Guitar Hero so this was my fallback. I also liked the electronic music aspect of it back in the day. I should see if somebody has made a compilation of the songs on Spotify.

Thanks! It was a full summer of saving up for me :) I had also sold my SNES (to help pay for some). I remember Playing ‘Willy Beamish’ of all things on it at Sears or JCPenney back in the day and knew I had to save for it.

And Batman Returns!

Yo, trauma center games were the shit. I actually only got to play Under the Knife and UtK2 on the DS, but I think the wii games were supposed to be even better. I so wish they would bring them to switch or something, or even better, make a new one with a new coat of technical polish.

TycoBrahe OP t1_j2642s8 wrote

Oh nice! I loved these games too. I also noticed Atlus made these, which makes sense why I love them. I played Persona 5 for the first time a couple years back and fell in love with that one too.

Can't believe I had to scroll so far to find a comment about that game. I liked several of these games but eternal darkness left a huge impression on me. I loved the sanity system and the way the game fucked with you if you were going crazy.

http://www.pricecharting.com if you click on the individual games it shows you trends, sold listings (and for how much), and the prices for how much of the game you have (e.g. loose disc vs full case with instructions, box, inserts, feelies, etc). You can also price the system (filter for systems) or accessories.

If you adjust for inflation, most of these things are worth far less than what our parents paid for them. However, your symphony was $20 ($37.42) and is now worth almost 3x that.
