All three of which are completely f*cking insane. Incredible Crisis in particular is hilarious.

Since arcade games are so much more difficult to find and play, even illegally, they're just going to continue getting more and more obscure. I do recall that we had a tiny conversation about the Outfoxies once. But only Christ knows why you're playing Korean DOS games.

Because Korea is the poor man's Japan.

There doesn't need to be logic. I want to play them, so I do. Isn't that why everybody plays games?

Well, there's a difference between playing games because "why not" and doing drugs or killing hookers because "why not."

But maybe that's a bad example or point. Oh well.

Justifying one's reason for playing a video game just seems stupid.

People who use that reasoning are the ones who are playing bad games most of the time, so...

Bad is subjective.

I dunno. Most of my stuff isn't that obscure.

Stun Runner - Mid/late 80s Atari/Midway tunnel racer. Quite fond of it.
ESPN Extreme Games - Crappy PS1 downhill inline racer for like 1995.
High Impact Football - Old Midway predecessor to NFL Blitz.

Can't really think of much else that would count as unique.

You mean Super High Impact for SNES? That game was AWESOME! You could explode shoulderpads and have fights! "Someone get him a bodybag!" Classic!

Dragon Spirit is actually a game I was wondering the name of for a few years now. I remember playing it as a kid.

And you're defeating the purpose of the topic. What's your deal?

Okay, more than half of my list are games I would not recommend to anyone. They are in my book, abysmal. This includes those Korean DOS fighting games. Only the Outfoxies and the last three on the list are worth playing. So yes, I've played games I would consider bad. Hasn't everyone?

On another note, I support Peanut's support of God Hand.
