I used to have a used copy of Maniac Mansion w/ instruction booklet that I bought at "Funco Land" (now GameStop) when I was a youngster. The game was far too difficult for me to comprehend at that age and I traded it back in a heartbeat.

Along with ditching my trusted N64 to put towards a PS2, it was one of the biggest mistakes of my video gaming career.

Maniac Mansion rules. I used to play it when I was 12. Of course, I didnt get far, but I felt like I was some kind of a genius for even trying to figure it out.

Still playing this even though I've beaten it about 3 times on each alignment.

Srsly, if you have a Gamecube or Wii and like creepy stuff, you need a copy of this. It can't be more than about $10-15 used.

Mega Man 8 fucking rocked! I loved the clown level so much. And beating the water balloon guy with just the buster. My friend and I played that and X4 all the time. Goddamn. I need to break those out again.

The only X I played was the first one. And I'm a huge oldschool MM fan,so I really wanna pick up the X collection for PS2.

I think they're more fun, but quite a bit easier than the old ones.

I still have never beaten the final boss of any MM game, though. Not even in the X series. I can always beat the eight levels, and just get frustrated at the end.

Mega Man X was the only MM game I ever beat in its entirety! I've come so close on so many of them. And yet. Why do I still love them?

I just picked up a SEGA Genesis from the local Salvation Army that my girlfriend works at. I grew up a Nintendo fan-boy and never really had much experience with any SEGA system other than the GameGear.

Sadly, I only have one controller and the original NHL game (no, not '94...*sigh*) so far.

94 was the shiz. I was a pretty equal Sega/Nintendo fanboy back then. It's funny, cuz now I'm so into Sony consoles. The thing is this: Nintendo ORIGINAL games are always incredible (Mario's, Zelda's and so on) but then games that come out on multi-consoles tend to suck on Nintendo (unless we're talking Mortal Kombat 2).

I'm playing this. Kitana/Mileena always kick my ass, worse than Raiden even.

Kitana's a beeeeyotch.

Jarvis Cocker - Cunts are still running the world

the insanity effects are genius. I heard that nintendo still runs the patent on this kind of effects

Tru fax. They own the patent to the sanity effect in games. Rumors have been churning about an Eternal Darkness sequel for years but naught has come of it.

oh it would be an instant buy for me if I own the system.
eternal darkness is such a classic, with a lot of great ideas, + a rich gamelength. typical "alot for the money"- nintendo style

ecco the dolphin is one of the most fucked up (and great) games of all time.
no contra of anyone who didnt saw the whole game counts!
