Of all the hasbro re-makes of 80s video games, this and pacman adventures in time are probably the best ones. the simple 3d gives this game a surreal atmosphere, the music is legendary, and the game enjoys a strong modding scene to this day. It's also a pia to run on modern systems, so seeing it run on modern os's would be amazing.
My mother woke me up at 4:00am on a school day because she’d been up all night playing this, and had finally competed the very last level and was excited to share that experience with me.
For a non-gamer who didn’t know how to use the computer, Frogger was immediately accessible to her, but also with levels challenging enough for even a dedicated gamer. Great level design, with plenty of variety but with simple, consistent mechanics.
The whole family has amazing memories of this game, and more than any other, this is the game I'd love to see remade. At least 5 day-one sales from our family, should it ever happen!
The after-school care system at my gradeschool had 2 computers, and a copy of this game. As kids, we would 100% complete this game, delete the save data, 100% it again, etc. Revisiting it as an adult- this game is still wonderful. It's got a hard, but fair amount of challenge, the levels are set in gorgeous locales. This game has a decent modding community on PC, to my understanding.
Unfortunately, the PC version of this game is extremely difficult to make work without access to its CD. I've gotten it to run in the past, but it reads all its sound off the disk. Not super accessible or convenient on a modern PC with no disc drive. I would love nothing more than to see this game come back..
Used to play this all the time on my PS1 as a kid, in fact me my mom and brother played this and we would race each other and sometimes my brother would rage when he lost. lol
As universal as Nintendo's Mario has become, Frogger still remains the other classic platformer, and another game that literally defined the 1990s.
Like Mario, it was so simple, yet so challenging: don't fall into lava, don't get crushed by everything from lawn mowers to cars to stampeding buffalo. Pretty much anything and everything could kill you, and that was the fun challenge of learning to look before you leap.
Frogger is weird. Imagine sitting down in the mid 90s, and getting to compose ambient music for a game about a frog just trying to find all the babies. It's good. Except the timer. Curse that timer, not letting me drink in the levels and the designs! (Thankfully, there are cheat codes you can type in.)

Xenosaga Episode I: Der Wille zur MachtXenosaga: Episode I - Der Wille zur Macht, the first chapter of a trilogy, is a Japanese-style sci-fi role-playing game, sharing many common themes and gameplay elements with Xenogears.
The battle system is not unlike the one used in Xenogears (combo attacks, AP and EP gauges, etc.), but random encounters are eliminated. Instead, the enemies are now visible and battles can be avoided. During combat the few upcoming ally and enemy turns are shown onscreen, allowing the player to make strategic decisions based on who will act next. A rolling slot moves with each turn as well, conferring a bonus such as added damage or bonus XP for any action on that turn. If the enemy would be in position to take an advantage then the player can expend a character's "boost" gauge to cut in and act next, although enemies can boost as well, and enemy boosts always over-ride player boosts.
Each character has a unique tree of Ether spells they can learn by spending Ether points earned in battle, with lower spells requiring spells above them to be purchased first. After a spell is purchased, so long is it does not require a unique talent of that character, the spell can also be purchased and learned by any other character that can afford double its normal cost. The Anti-Gnosis Weapon Systems can be equipped with different weapons and accessories and can be used in combat provided that a character has enough AP on that turn to board their AGWS.Trending Fantasy Science fiction

Resident Evil: HD RemasterThe hugely popular Resident Evil series, having sold over 61 million units to date, returns to its roots with a remastered version of the critically acclaimed masterpiece, Resident Evil.

(Special Tactics and Rescue Service) team member Chris Redfield or Jill Valentine, who have been sent into the city to find the missing Bravo team. When the team is suddenly attacked by a ferocious group of mutated dogs, desperate for an escape they take shelter in the Mansion, but will they ever get out alive again? Players will need to be brave as they adventure through the dark, enclosed spaces searching out the horrors that await them. With limited ammo and survival items available gamers will need to keep their wits about them to survive the various traps and puzzles that greet them at every stage.Action Horror Survival
