Hot Wheels: Turbo Racing is pretty sexy good but I dunno about Beat That!
Holy crap! How could I forget Turbo Racing? That was the most played game I think I have ever had. Did you manage to beat the Twinmill Cup? My 7-yearold self couldn't. That annoyed me so much. Best I could do was second. I did nearly win but I blew up.
What was your favourite car?
What was your favourite track?
What was your favourite song?
Did you ever do The Gooch?
Did you unlock all the cars?

[/beingyoungagain!]
Yes, I did just about beat the Twinmill cup, though it took about 11 tries.
Favorite Cars? Lakester, Thunder Roller and probably Rigor Motor
Favorite track was Road To Rustwell. Just a nice simple course. Probably Command Center after that, then Dawn Encounter.
I always liked the Primus song the best.
I have done the Gooch once, though I can't remember how.
Yes, I have unlocked all the cars.
:O Ok.
I made and can give you a strategy that usually works.

Race on the Command Center track as Lakester. Near the end there is a three-way jump over two icebergs. There is another ramp after that part just before the finish line. Maybe use a turbo on the ramp to get some speed and hold down the up on the D-pad, you should obviously start to flip. Keep holding it down when you land and you should do a few rolls. If done correctly then you will earn the maximum of 10 turbos and it will say "The Gooch" at the bottom.

Doesn't always work but does about 85-95% of the time.

Way of the Samurai (PS2) This game is brilliant and frustrating at the same time.


Escape from Monkey Island (PS2) Adventure gaming hasn't been the same.

I have just remembered a game that was probably very underrated (nobody I know has heard of it either). PS2 game called I-Ninja.



And that video brought back so many memories. I think I want this game again.
Yes that sequence of words I just said made perfect sense.

Ah, I remember seeing footage of it from Screwattack's Top 10 Gaming Ninjas video- looked pretty good, actually. Too bad Joe Musashi (From the Shinobi titles, which I would also recommend here) wasn't higher on the list, though.

I have the original HWTR CD for the PS1, it was cool.

eXtreme G 3 for PS2 and Gamecube is pretty much underrated I think.

To bring this back, I'll bring up a personal favourite of mine-


The Legend of Zelda- Link's Awakening, for the Game Boy.

I'd consider this one to be one of the most underrated Zelda titles out there, but once tried, definitely ranks amongst the best Game Boy titles you'll find. As the first portable Zelda title, it's got an excellent selection of Dungeons, Locations and Items (Including the Hookshot, Roc's Feather and Pegasus Boots) to use and explore for a handheld, and brings new elements to the series, such as jumping and side-scrolling sequences, leading to very clever puzzling, action and adventure elements.

On top of that, it has nods to other Nintendo franchises, one of the Zelda series' most memorable soundtracks, and is surprisingly deep and engrossing for the system it appeared on. If you've got a Gameboy, get it. I can promise you won't regret it for a moment.

I liked it, but at times it felt a little directionless and random.
