Must have games of (insert console here).

[Ishido]

The vast majority of you are North American I'm assuming, so most of you won't give a fuck, but football (soccer >_< ) games need a mention.

For actually playing, the Pro Evolution Soccer range from Konami kicks the shit out of anything else.

Then for a football management sim, look no further than Championship Manager up until the development team split with their publisher, Eidos (who kept the CM brand while Sigames the developer kept all the code/engine/database etc), and since then Football Manager (global name) and/or Worldwide Soccer Manager (US name).

The CM+FM series of games have taken more hours of my gaming life than anything else. I'm talking since the Amiga days. I've been addicted to those damn games for nigh on 15 years.

If any of you are into sports management sims, Sigames make both an Ice Hockey and a Baseball sim. I've not tried either, but with their track record they're probably amazing.

My friend from England used to play CM a lot, it looked pretty sweet.

What platform is Pro Evo for?

[Huggo]

Okage was so silly and so much fun. It reminded me of Earthbound a bit.

Oh, and if they haven't been mentioned yet; Donkey Kong Country 1, 2, and 3 on SNES are MUST HAVES.

[Ishido]

Yeah I've heard of Winning Eleven, kind of funny my friend was just saying how it's the best football game ever lol.

It became the unspoken mission of fans of PES and WE to promote them to anyone, simply because they're far superior to the EA Sports series that undeservedly outsells them. They don't have the fancy names or prettiest graphics but the gameplay is unmatched.

[Krandor]

Not sure if it was on here yet but, Virtua Figher 4 Evolution on PS2 is probably still the best 3D fighter on any home console.

[Exoduso]

Xenosaga series (especially 3, zomg?)...

And Kingdom Hearts 1/2.

[Demosthenes]

Not sure if it was on here yet but, Virtua Figher 4 Evolution on PS2 is probably still the best 3D fighter on any home console.

Soul Calibur 2 would like to speak with you sir.

[yayaok]

TEKKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENWUT

[Zalius]

digimon rumble arena 2 gtfo

[Huggo]

Not sure if it was on here yet but, Virtua Figher 4 Evolution on PS2 is probably still the best 3D fighter on any home console.

This man speaks the truth. You shoulda seen Virtua Fighter 5's booth at E3. Middle-aged Japanese businessmen in suits lined up to play against the little kids, and kicking the everloving shit outta them. haha.

[Ashen]

Perfect Dark

thank god, I was waiting for someone to mention that one. It was alot like goldeneye but it made it 100% better by adding bots so i wouldnt have to play with my retarded ass friends lol

FF5 for SNES

also PSO for Game Cube was hot shit.

[Vinen]

N64:
Ogre Battle 64

Playstation 2:
Valkyrie Profile 2
Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne
Grandia III


...

Yeah, I didn't list other Goldeneye and shit because well. I dun enjoy those type of games =p

[Fero]

Mortal Kombat for the Sega Genesis is the best game ever.

[Krandor]

Soul Calibur 2 would like to speak with you sir.

I'll take your word on the Street Fighter Alpha 2 vs 3 thing, but I own both Soul Calibur II (and III, yuck), and they can't hold a candle to VF4 Evo. Tekken can lick my balls, Tag is fun if you get some friends together and throw in some booze, but the combat system is so devoid of depth it gets old pretty fast. Tekken 4 and 5 were both pretty atrocious as well.

[Kaylia]

Xenosaga series (especially 3, zomg?)...

And Kingdom Hearts 1/2.

Don't say XS. Somenoe will burn you alive :D It's my personal favorite, but people apparently can't sit in front a TV to watch story for 30minutes
