1. APB - Just because it's complicated, that doesn't make it bad.
2. Gain Ground - Not sure if people consider it terrible, but I never see it get any love.
3. Mustache Boy
4. DK Jr. - As long as you aren't point pressing the hideout, this game is fun IMO.
5. Cheeky Mouse


I would put Lizard Wizard, but I don't think people see it as terrible. I have no idea how this made it into 2 crap tourneys.

Macho Mouse is far superior to Cheeky Mouse.

I have never played Macho Mouse, but Cheeky Mouse has the original Fix It Felix video game character Kappa

CTs are about uncovering hidden gems as much as they are about pure garbage.  Sometimes there's a real good reason why you haven't heard of a title before, sometimes not.  Lizwiz was in the first CT and pretty much everyone liked it, so it made a return.  Lover Boy will not be making a return.

Let me see if I can count to 5

1.  Strength and Skill. graphics aren't everything.  You gotta be fast and have good timing. Something alot of you dont have. Suck it up and work on it! Good game because I say so.

2. Return of the Jedi.  Aint nothing better than games with the Star Wars yoke controls.  Just cuz your small minds cant get over the 3/4 veiw angle doesn't mean it sucks. And unlike the other Star Wars games, this one has an ending. So point pressing is crucial for top scores. Speaking of 3/4 views, I bet you like Crystal  <Pigger>

3. Chelnov.  Just try it. I know most of you haven't.

4. Street Fighter the Movie. Ok, after 20 or so years people are starting to realize it's awesomeness,  but it's been considered crap for ages.

I'll save my #5 till I can come up with a good one. Cant think of one right now.

Indian Battle

I too like Indian battle. A couple more games:

1. Quantum
2. Eggs
The player must run around a maze kicking Eggs into walls to break them open, revealing chicks. Chicks then must be kicked off the screen before they turn red and start chasing you like the other enemies.

Chelnov is cool, and also has a good Genesis port. SF: The Movie is basically a slightly modified SSF2 Turbo engine, which is generally considered one of the best fighting games of all time. It has some wack animations but it's definitely competent.
