    I may be thinking of a completely different title altogether, but do you mean Kurushi? I think it was released with that name over here. Superb puzzle game.

      I got mine mid 1997 for ?30.
      Sold it earlier this year for ?50

      Possibly the only game I ever had which actually went up in value. (Unless anyone wants an original Jap copy of Metal gear solid complete with MGS memory card stickers and genso suikoden 2 demo?

        Quantum Redshift (xbox) - Amazingly fast and unbelievably hardcore track design. The flight control gets deeper and deeper the more you play until you use every mogul and bump of the track to give you that extra bit of boost. Also had the most sublime weapon system of any futuristic racer.

        Top gear Rally (N64) - A real tuff bastard to master, but oh so satisfying when you did.

        BangaiO (DC) - Just goddamn fun.

        Otogi (xbox) - never really even got the Otaku excited, which is a shame cos its a very cathartic slash em up.

        Conflict desert storm (all) - I know it sold well but the 'hardcore' never really embraced this awesome tactical squad shooter

            Ridge Racer Type 4: I only experianced Rage Racer on demo but this is easily the most exhilariting racing game behind Daytonna and SEGA rally. It's beautiful, fast, addictive and has incrediable depth to it.

            Tenchu 2: The hardcore prefered Tenchu and it done "okay" on release, this is one of the most atmospheric games ive played since Deus Ex. It has a few problems granted, but it makes up for it in it's playability and it's fantastic (If slightly limited) mission creator.

            Perfect Dark: This is highly regarded but was fogotern by people who already moved on from the N64 and belived GoldenEye was better. This has the most in depth FPS multiplayer options on any console. The single player was stunning too (And more diffrrent to GoldenEye's) but sadly suffered for it's beautiful settings... It's frame rate was just about satisficatory.

            Sonic Adventure: The masses left it and the hardcore slayed it. This was a beautiful adventure game by sonic team and although it had it's faults, the games true talent shone, if people had let it.

              Suikoden and Vandal hearts i'd agree are brilliant games, again along with FF7

                  The 2 player mode was almost unplayable but the single player was great. Some of the courses were so good especially the desert track. In fact I might dig out my copy tonight and have another blast at it.

                    Also Kung Fu Chaos, released for a lower price then most other games it still goes quite unnoticed, my friends have never heard of it before. Its such a FUN game just pick up play and enjoy really how all games should be.

                      Twisted Metal: World Tour on PS1. I can't explain how amazing that game was!!! It is one of the few that I have played and replayed... excellent fun, especially on co-op.
                      What got me was, that you could play it years after first turning it on, and discover new areas!!! I kid you not. So much detail, so much time and effort by the programmers, it was a real work of art.
                      The only disappointemnt in the world, was that so many people hadn't heard of it. It seemed to pass the casual gamers by.

                      Twisted Metal Black is so average, which is a disappointment!

                        Aye, that was a brilliant game. It all went wrong after that though didn't it? TM3 and 4 were pants, TM Black was alright but never captured the essence of World Tour. Co-op was brilliant and the level design was real sweet too, I can remember some right cool places to hide out in and find special weapons. Blowing up the Eifel tower was nice and so was shooting the statue of liberty to reveal a bikini clad women 8)

                        Minion oWnz jOO!

                          Front Mission 3 The first Square game I played liked and finished and started to play again.

                          Vagrant Story The second Square game I liked but I didn't finish, but still enjoyed. Killing dragons was fun.

                          War of the Monsters Now Icog and me have a strange relationship I wait to see what their big summer game is, then buy it. I really enjoyed TM Black its dark wickedness was a nice change from all the regular car combat stuff out there. WOTM was fun city destroying mindless fun.

                          Drakan The Ancients Gate Ok so the Dragon's voice kind of sucked but the chick was cool and the magic/ archery/ hack n slash combo can't be beat. The only part I hated was when I died. The save anywhere feature was priceless.

                            Indeed, quality game. The whole storytelling of the game, with the speech bubbles added to the atmosphere. The fighting system was excellent, I think for one boss fight I managed to chain 32 hits together once.

                            I think this is one game that would benefit greatly by modern technology, especially if they hired some good voice-actors.
