Thanks for the suggestions! --- End quote --- Here's the big question: do you just want popular stuff to have, or are you going to actually play these things? I know personally, I tend to spend more time not with the 'popular' games, but the 'hidden gems'. As time goes on, what was popular in the past may not actually hold up over time- maybe a superior take on the same concept made the old game seem limited in retrospect. Alternatively, a game that not many people paid attention to can gain traction in the retro market as people's needs from the system change. I guess what I'm saying is, asking for recommendations is fine, but be wary of letting popular opinion get you spending money on titles that just aren't your thing. |
