Ty the Tasmanian Tiger
Ty is a platforming game focused on a character of the same name that can definitely be compared to games like Spyro the Dragon. The title takes place on a fictional Australian island, with Ty hunting down “Thunder Eggs.” He needs these items to free his family from a cassowary named Boss Cass, who’s planning world domination.
Eternal Darkness
Eternal Darkness is a psychological horror game that has an interesting way of playing with the player’s perceptions. You follow 12 different characters through different periods of time, having to manage “sanity effects” to keep your characters safe. It’s a bit of an overlooked gem, and it has a story that easily draws you in.
F-Zero GX
F-Zero has been dormant for many years, but F-Zero GX on the GameCube remains one of the best racers around. GX added even more racers and cars to the cast of the series, and the gameplay runs at an absolutely blistering pace. In terms of futuristic racing games, you can’t get much better than this.
Skies of Arcadia
Skies of Arcadia is easily one of the best JRPGs ever, putting you in control of a sky pirate named Vyse, and the rest of his crew. The title is a turn-based RPG and originally released on the Sega Dreamcast. It boasts a strong narrative, interesting ensemble cast, and unique ship combat system. No RPG fan should miss out on this one.
Soulcalibur II
Soulcalibur is one of the most well known fighting series around, and it puts an emphasis on weapon combat and 3D movement. The series has become known for its guest characters, and Soulcalibur II featured none other than Nintendo’s Link. The character fit in surprisingly well, alongside some new additions to the series, too.
