Outrun Europa is the game that turned me into a gamer. I've played quite a few videogames before it, but didn't care much about anything that I've tried. Usually would lose interest in under a week. An article in a local newspaper reviewing it gathered my attention. A game about high speed chases with vehicles like Porsche and Ferrari was like a dream come true for me. One day, when my father took me and my younger sister to a toy store to pick up a new game, there it was. I gasped at the sight of the game and shouted to my father "I want that one" pointing towards Outrun Europa, but my sister immediately followed with a "I want that one" as well while pointing towards a copy of The Flintstones. We exchanged "but I want that one" for a while until I gave up, turned my back to the shelf and said "just buy her game. I don't play that much anyway" and left. I was quite upset, so I left their company and started browsing the rest of the store in search for something else, but couldn't find anything that peeked my interest. From the distance I saw my father buying a game while holding my sister's hand. Despite being very disappointed, after all The Flintstones was another platformer game among many others that we already owned, I decided to give it a try. So I opened the bag and to my surprise, dad had bought Outrun Europa! From the moment I popped the cartridge inside our Master System, I got hooked. The music, the graphics and the fast and challenging driving mechanics made me keep coming back to play it. It was the first game that I didn't abandoned after one week. In fact, I've played it for many years. I struggled a lot as a kid, only managing to reach the last level once. I was 18 when I finally managed to beat it. Ps. My sister would eventually get a copy of The Flintstones a few months later, so it worked out for everyone

Gundam Breaker 3: Break Edition
Gundam Breaker 3: Break EditionThe third installment of the fan-favorite Gundam Breaker series is here! Taking a unique and meta approach towards the Gundam universe, Gundam Breaker 3 continues the formula of bringing action-packed mecha-on-mecha battles that revolve around one of the core aspects of the series: the building of Gunpla model kits! The management mechanics revolve around the creative choice of building your own model kit based on their real-life counterparts. There are over 100 Gunpla kits to choose from, which gives you endless building opportunities! You can colorize parts, define material types such as plastic or chrome, add decals, scale optional loadouts, and save your kits into a list to restore whenever you want to fight with that model. Aside from customizing the entire body, you get a shield, melee weapon, and ranged weapon slot for your primary arsenal, 4 Ex-Actions for explosive attacks, and 8 slots for your optional loadouts which can include missile pods, rail cannons, beam launchers, beam sabers, axes, and all sorts of other offensive and defensive mechanisms. This is one of the most freeform combat experiences ever made in 3rd person arena combat. Two escorts join you in most of the battles, performing healing and attack actions while also rescuing you from being knocked out. You can also instruct them to do certain actions. A new "Bounty Hunter Mode" has been added to the series. In this mode, players will be able to battle against Gunpla that have been uploaded by other players, and the victor will walk away with in-game currency and all parts that have been broken off of enemy kits. The Break Edition includes all the DLC of the normal edition.

Midnight Race Club: Supercharged!
Midnight Race Club: Supercharged!Midnight Race Club: Supercharged! is the second racing game from the developers behind the notorious Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing. Unlike Big Rigs, it has proper collision detection, unintentionally removing one of the quirks that made the previous game famous. Midnight Race Club was originally intended to be a single package along with Big Rigs, but GameMill decided to split the two early in development. For this reason, both games share an identical UI and near-identical gameplay.
