Jak and Daxter The Precursor Legacy. I didn't care for any of the sequels which makes sense considering the guys behind the Crash Bandicoot series also made J&D Precursor Legacy. They jumped ship from the company after PL came out. The Witcher III - I actually knew about Witcher before many people did because I randomly picked up the first game on PC (enhanced directors cut edition) shortly after it came out. I was a PS fan so didn't even know about Witcher II until after III came out. Witcher III turned out to be one of the top 15 games I've played in the past 10 years.

I can't recall the specific game but it was definitely a PS1 or N64 game in the late 90s or year 2000. Never rented games after that point.

A lot of good ones already mentioned so I'll add Donald Duck: Goin' Quackers to the mix. It's not my favorite by any means but a solid game for N64.

X-Men or The Simpsons for me but I also wouldn't mind a sit down racing one from the late 90s.

It's difficult for me to rank them all but here are my top 5 in no particular order: SM World SMB 3 SM 64 SM Odyssey SM Galaxy

I've never played a "Souls" game before in my life because I always heard they were just tough boss fights which didn't interest me. I ended up buying Elden Ring because of the hype to be honest. At first without knowing anything or looking at 1 Youtube video, I didn't like it. I thought it was too vague, not a lot of direct clues telling you where to go and I felt weak. Fast forward to present and I think it's one of the best video games I've ever played in recent memory! It kind of re-invigorated my love for immersive, challenging single player focused games. I have no shame in admitting I use Youtube as a guide. I find the locations of specific armor pieces, spells, incantations, summons, ashes of war, bell bearings, stones, boss fights, talisman, tears for physicks, etc. Then I plan an entire gaming session going on the adventure for (insert goal here). There's so much to this game it's impossible to fit into one post. For example I recently discovered how useful Margit's Shackle can be. It does random things like showing you any secret door in your nearby area, disabling certain dungeon traps, opening random pits in caves, use multiple times outside certain boss fogs before going in to make them stand still so you can cast things like poison mist and slowly kill them in cheese fashion, etc. I love this game! 9.5/10 because I just wish the story was a little deeper and stronger. I also don't like how you can't bring back certain NPCs (which then can cancel you out of certain quests & access to certain items).

Sorry for the confusion. You're right that it was indeed a hit. That's actually one of their best songs IMO. I don't own Get a Grip so I always associated Big Ones with Livin' On the Edge because it's the only 90s Aerosmith I have besides Nine Lives. My favorite album of theirs is probably Rocks.

8/10. For me their last 3 good albums were in the late 80s and 90s...Nine Lives, Big Ones and Pump. Love all the 70s albums too.

Guy Pearce. He has done so many good roles such as: Memento LA Confidential The Time Machine The Count of Monte Cristo A Christmas Carol The Proposition Ravenous Lawless Brimstone Animal Kingdom Lockout Prometheus

If I'm doing just animated: The Simpsons Family Guy Batman the Animated Series honorable mentions: South Park, X-Men, Doug, Rockos Modern Life, Animaniacs My top 10 non animated shows in no particular order: Dark Game of Thrones Ozark Breaking Bad The Sopranos Boardwalk Empire The Wonder Years Turn Washington's Spies Six Feet Under Peaky Blinders Other good shows that almost make the list: Shamless Squid Game Mind Hunter The X-Files Fargo Outlander Chernobyl Star Trek The Next Generation Firefly Farscape Lost Late Night with Conan O'Brien Saturday Night Live

My thing with Van Halen is that none of their albums are start to finish good. A good song here, a good song there, skip this, skip that, good song again, skip again kind of thing. As a band I give them a 7 or 7.5 but Eddie Van Valen as a guitar player I'd give a 9 out of 10. I only wish he would've done some solo albums kind of like Satriani/Vai kind of stuff and ventured outside of the rock box/band thing.

Goldeneye 007 single player campaign on N64.

I can't pick just one so here's a few I was debating between. Life Is Strange The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Mass Effect 2 Age of Empires II Bioshock Super Mario World Grand Theft Auto San Andreas Beyond Two Souls Crash Bandicoot 2 Horizon Zero Dawn The Witcher III Red Dead Redemption 2 LA Noire Final Fantasy VII Final Fantasy X Ghost of Tsushima Donkey Kong Country Goldeneye 007 Any Mario Kart

I'm not sure if it was Adventure on Atari or Sonic the Hedgehog on Genesis but it was definitely one of the two.
