Some of them:

Metroid (NES)
XEXYZ
Mega Man 2
Life Force/Salamander
Mario 3
Phantasy Star IV
Sonic CD
Lunar: The Silver Star
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Fallout 1 and 2

I don't know why (not counting the high quality of most of them), but I just REALLY like these games more than others of similar quality. Something I just can't explain. I guess it's the atmosphere.

Loco Roco and the Lego games (Star Wars, Batman) not sure why but these games rock. Most recently I've been obsessed with Streets of Rage ever since I got it. Ive played it everyday since got it. I'm determined to beat it but I always get a game over on the boat level with the two twins as the boss battle (level 5 or 6)

Counter-Strike 1.6

229.8 hours according to Steam but to be honest I think its more because of Cyber Cafe's that were at the local mall and I don't believe they added the time when I use to play on 56k. That's right 56k, it sucked but dammit I love this game.

Walk towards them, and just as they jump over you, turn the other way and punch.

I'm with you on this one.

It has such a unique personality. I honestly believe it to be one of the best RPGs of all time, surely one of the best 16 bit ones.

I can't think of a single flaw in it.
