Reality

I would play all of them before Genealogy of the Holy War without speedup - Platformers would be preferred of course to get it over with- Bubsy = shortest, Superman 2nd shortest, but has Bosses that stunlock you if you don't stunlock them first. Sonic and Sonic = Drawn out, but not really hard games. Big Rigs has so few working levels that it wouldn't even hurt that much to play through the non-crash part of the game completely.

I feel like the startup time of Fox/Falco is really bad, when I play against them I chase them down and whack them offstage almost more than I do Ness!

Playing Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri as Miriam. I shamelessly rushed Yang and eliminated him. Have been in alliance with UN and Spartans for a long time - Morgan has been 1st place the entire game, UN and myself have switched back and forth 2nd / 3rd - University and Gaia are basciallly on their own continent and I think at peace with each other + war with Spartans, but I'm only helping my ally technology wise because Morgan is right next to me.

In honor of Mr. Driller on the Switch Direct

Mr. Driller should be played by everyone, and will probably be like a 5 dollar release - NO EXCUSES. Panzer Dragoon, is one of the great last hurrahs of the rail shooter genre - so it'll be good, but I gotta be honest and if you didn't like (Starfox 64) you won't like this much either. Of the PC ports I think Burnout/XCOM/Warhammer Mechanicus (although it can be viewed as a lesser game in XCOM's genre) are by far the most interesting for people who only play console. Borderlands is a big release, but I personally hate the franchise's gameplay, glad a new audience will get to try it and (many) love it, I guess.

Pure (2008) There was always a bunch of minor ATV games existing in the extreme sport genre but personally I feel like most of them never reached much higher than being "rally" games - but PURE rises far above any other - Personally think it's worthy of being the 3rd member of the pantheon with Tony Hawk and SSX - Twisted Metal, Interstate 76, or Vigilante 8- I need a Car Combat game again
