Nope, none of this is in any way done well or the least bit redeeming. You got robbed of your $3.

Otherwise, noise? I guess Doom 3 is the only one I'd really point to as questionable as a "classic" - maybe hold it for the "Month of Horror" instead?
sonofa... I feel like I don't even know you anymore. I picked up Doom 3 on the way home today and was like "now THIS is one that DSH will approve of."

Well... what about Doom 1 or 2? This is the LE with all 3 games. I played the first a lot in Jr. High, but it was just the shareware version, not the full game.

Fuck.
I think Doom 1 is a good choice, since you haven't beaten it yet.

As for Madworld, eh, I think Dsh hates it a weee bit too much, but I do agree with him about it not being a 'classic'.

I don't know what else you can choose if you're set on playing something on the Wii, though. You've already got RE4 on your list, though on the Wii it's more fundamentally a lightgun game. I'd suggest No More Heroes as it's in the same vein as Madworld, but, if I recall correctly, you've already got that on PS3 (and I don't know whether that would fall under Dsh's requirements for classic). There is the Klonoa remake and the Okami port, but I don't know what you've played and they don't really fall under the beat-em-up category, if that's what you were going for.

Castlevania Draculs X (PSP)*
Doom (Xbox)
Eye of the Beholder (SCD)
Final Fantasy (PSP)*
Killer7* (PS2)
Madworld (Wii)
Nights Into Dreams (Sat)
Panzer Dragoon (Sat)*
Resident Evil 4 (PS2)*
Tomb Raider (Sat)*

^I could consider swapping Madworld for Espgaluda to play with Mike, though my history of 1CC's is slight. I guess I could aim for a dollar worth of credits. But I'm not a big fan of credit-feeding shmups...

@Michi: I'm not set on Wii, but thought it might be nice to play a Wii game for a change. I don't have much else though. No More Heroes I've played half-way thru on PS3 (lost my save) but I feel I've put too much time into it recently to feel like a real new challenge to me. It is a fantastic game though.

I've played Killer7 for like 20 mins before. But I'm a big Suda fan and really have put it off for far too long.

Dood, it is such a delightfully dark and disturbing game; I loved it.

Hmm. I could possibly do Guardian Heroes. I forgot I downloaded that on XBLA for TR and then never played it. (To replace Madworld)

That's fine. I understand. I was just trying to come up with a couple of cheap alternatives I have in case you had your heart set on a Wii game.

That sounds more like something that would get Dsh's nod of approval.
