#192 – Spyro the Dragon (PS1)
Did you know that before the famous Ratchet & Clank series, Insomniac’s hero was a tiny purple dragon. A hero he was indeed. Spyro the Dragon started one of the best platforming trilogy on a single console, the PS1. The first entry broke grounds with its unique style of platforming focused on collecting things like gems, eggs and freeing the imprisoned dragons. The feeling of accomplishment is amazing in this game and it’s very hard to put down once you’re in the groove. The 1st entry still holds its own against many modern platformers and deserves a place in any man’s best platforming game lists.
#191 – Twisted Metal Black (PS2)
When I first got my hands on Twisted Metal Black I was like “Finally! A Twisted Metal for the PS2”. I mean we had like what 4 Twisted Metals on the PS1 and the 2nd one was actually the only good one because the other ones were more or less a rehashed version of it. Twisted Metal Black brought back that TM2 feel and for once a TM game didn’t look like an eyesore. Trust me I don’t mind bad graphics that much but playing Black and going back to TM2 is rather difficult these days. This isn’t just about the graphics TM Black outdid TM2 in almost every aspect and is simply more fun to play.
