Video Game Desert Island draft

Recommended Posts

I was either going to take this or a Guitar Hero game at some point...just because I'm so bad at the guitar controller that I'd have time to master it. Which would kill some time.

 

Well, that's pretty much my reasoning too.

Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest (SNES, 1995)

 

This was a tough choice between this one and the third one. There are more secrets in the third one, but I went with this one because I like the stages better, and because I prefer Diddy's gameplay to Kiddy's. Kiddy is slow as fuck when compared to Diddy and Dixie.

In DKC2, I still have never beaten that level in the secret world where you play as just the animals. That one part as the parrot when you have to fly through the thorned area with the gusts of wind is ridiculously annoying. Granted, I haven't played it in 5+ years, so maybe it's easier than I remember.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii, 2008)

It's not my favorite fighter by any means, but I've enjoyed it and it'd be a perfect fighter to be stranded with. It's got a ridiculous amount of stuff to unlock, so that'd kill a bunch of time. And the island would be a great way to learn to play Smash competitively, which I've always wanted to do but just never had the time.

Crandimanic's 12 hours have passed. My go. And I pick:

Street Fighter Alpha 3 (Playstation/Dreamcast, 1998)

 

With Super Street Fighter gone, I've picked my second favourite of the series. A massive roster to keep me busy, some really nice animation, a kick ass soundtrack and more than just an arcade mode to finish.

 

Love it.

 

Just to clarify, I'm picking the Dreamcast version.

I remember when I first rented this game. My brother asked me "why did you get a Mario game?" After seeing it in action, he then proceeded to play it all night. Such is the greatness of Super Mario RPG.

well, all the good wrestling console games are gone, so here we go:

Wrestlefest-even if I'm all alone to play this game, I still love it enough to have it on the island with me.

Going back to the genesis for these picks...

Shining Force II

Sega Genesis 1993

 

I had to really fight my nostalgia to not pick the first one, since this one is the better overall game.

Streets of Rage II

Sega Genesis 1992

 

My favorite beat-em-up of all time. Despite beating it numerous times, it's still really fun. I could atomic drop sumbitches with Max pretty much all day.

The sequels were probably better, but I was always partial to the original:

 

I actually think the 1st one is the best game.

 

Streets of Rage II

Sega Genesis 1992

 

Good pick.

My second favorite MM game after 2. Well, I guess I do like 1 as much as X but this gets the edge because it's more fun to play.

Super Smash Bros Melee (Gamecube, 2002)

 

I missed out on Brawl, but oh well.

 

Six years on and my friends and I still play this game to death. I can spend hours and hours playing it and never get tired of it. Great game.

Well...I've already grabbed big long involving games like KOTOR, Rock Band and GTA IV...so it's time to take the game that I probably wasted most of my childhood sitting under a tree playing (which is what I'd be forced to do on Bryan Island anyway)
