#146 – Mega Man 3 (NES)
This was Mega Man before it started getting stale. Mega Man 3 introduced the slide function much to my delight but it was introduced for a good reason. The Bosses in Mega Man 3 were so much more difficult than Mega Man 2. Also the most memorable thing about Mega Man 3 is the Dark Master Stages where you battled two previous bosses in a single stage. Those levels just had that awesome feel to it. Mega Man 3 showed many promises for the series but Capcom refused to develop it any further other than making similar clones trying to milk the series dry.
#145 – WWE Smackdown! vs. Raw 2006 (PS2)
Flame me all you want. SvR 2006 is my favorite Wrestling game. I actually like most of the SvR or Smackdown games developed by THQ but this one just stood out. The unlockables were the best. The Challenge mode was awesome. Season was also the best at that time with good voice acting. But what is most memorable about SvR is the GM mode. Boy did I spend a huge amount of time there. Nothing has topped ‘06 so far. I was hoping WWE ’12 would but it didn’t let’s hope a WWE ’13 or SvR 2013 would do the job.
