Games you use to love but never see anyone mention anymore

This is the cover for the game. I've done some gameplay on my youtube channel too. I'm not sure if i'm gonna make anymore videos on it though since no one watches it lol.
Also was it just me or was Vegas oddly harder than the others? I feel like I was just too use to exploring in FO2 & 3 that I went too deep too fast in NV, but those flippin Cazadors were brutal. What actually WAS New Vegas, felt like there areas blatantly blocked by higher level people, where I didn't feel like I got that before. Not to mention Mr New Vegas inside the tower was just unbelieveable, why are there mini nukes flying at me and I can't do anything omg what on Earth. I mean it all ended up working out for me HAHA But it was much more stressful than the previous installments
@Klinkguin OH YES. I knew it, not that I couldn't have googled the box haha but yeah I still want to get that. When I'm free later I should find your videos and watch and see if it really does interest me. Might as well make use of your videos

I like a lot of "vintage" games that are a bit obscure.
1. Marvel Land, for Sega Genesis
This one is reminiscent of The Mario Bros. titles, but vastly more acid trip-py and colorful. The premise is the same in that your objective is a rescue a princess from an evil antagonist, but the levels are designed so beautifully and the whole game has a sort of theme park ride-type aesthetic. I adore it.
2. Goofy's Hysterical History Tour, for Sega Genesis
Despite the fact that it features Goofy, this game is actually pretty challenging if you can make it past the first couple of levels. It's a standard platformer in that there's a lot of precision jumping and inevitable falling to your death, but it's actually a lot of fun once you get the hang of all of Goofy's gadgets and when to use them.
3. Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub Zero, for N64 and PlayStation
I know everyone's heard of the Mortal Kombat titles, but this one was an OUTRAGEOUSLY difficult action/adventure platformer that followed Sub Zero as he attempts to steal an elemental map, and finally, to face Quan Chi. This game was the effectual bane of my existence for months, while I tried (and failed) to beat it. The smallest mistake ends in your death, essentially every misstep proves fatal, you're unable to progress past level 2 unless you play on Hard difficulty or higher, and the controls are the least intuitive I've seen in a game. Using an invincibility code only protects you from damage dealt by level enemies (not bosses, level traps, etc.) and is almost useless in the grand scope. I finally ended up beating it after binging on it for a length of time that I'll not mention, and the amount of relief I felt was... substantial. The game is pretty widely hated by both players as well as critics, but I actually thought it was a blast and still pick it up and play on occasion.
4. Fighting Vipers, for Sega Saturn
This is a Japanese import, and an all around great fighting game. It's fairly easy as far as the genre goes, but that doesn't make it any less enjoyable. The character designs are amazing, the levels are all interesting, and finishing moves have some interesting results depending on the level you're on. The final boss becomes a playable character after beating the game once through, and I can't forget to mention little miss Candy here:
There are many more, but these are some that have stood out to me.

Ok thank goodness it wasn't just me. I literally was the only one who finished FO3 and was "worthy" (according to my friend group) of moving onto the next one. They were slow and I was just way to into it haha But then I played and I'm like eeeehhhhrrrrggg. Whats even happening here. Bethesda gets 1 more chance until I feel like they're turning the series in the wrong direction lol
Lol I've been playing that, both on my 3DS and in Wii mode with my Kirby Dream Collection disk haha I looooove kirby so it wasn't even weird that I played the same game twice so soon.
3. Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub Zero, for N64 and PlayStation
Oh jeeze I forgot ALL about that. A neighbor kid had the N64 version and we'd all go over and play or watch and we stunk lol We just assumed it was because the game "wasn't for kids" haha

I talk about A New Beginning but yeah I don't play with anyone 
Although I feel like there isn't enough time in-game day to freakin play with someone else without everything going haywire. I suppose I've stretched my chores as much as I can in that game.

It's fairly embarrassing to say I've just started playing my first Spyro game in the last month on my PS3.

you should try the gba and ps1 ones. they are awesomeAh never played them
I plan on doing the PS1 games because they're on the PS3. I've got to do the Tree Tops in Spyro 1. Apparently regarded as one of the, if not THEE hardest level in Spyro. Oh great. Although I did pretty good at Wizards Peak making that massive jump people supposedly complain about.
GBA is lost unless they make an appearance on WiiU VC. I'm funny about using old handheld systems, especially those that use batteries haha. TV consoles = ok though.
