Damn, 2 "no"s for Life Force huh? When I beat it for my Summer Marathon it better not kick my ass :x

Let's go big or go home.

I'm suggesting my 3rd game be Blaster Master, seeing as I own it 3 times now and still havent beaten it.

Let me know what you think judges

Participants, please look at all the games that the judges have recently judged. If your three picks are vetted, please post and let me know what they are. That way I can update the OP and have your registration taken care of. Thanks.

If you're voting no on Adventure Island 2, have you actually beaten it? I'm just curious because I find that game extremely difficult. It starts out easy but it becomes really difficult as it goes on. At least, that's how I feel about it. Maybe I'm just bad at it.

Okay, for now, I'm going to roll with:

Castlevania: The Adventure
Ghouls 'N' Ghosts
Contra: Hard Corps (US)

I'm probably going to regret this.

Also, just out of curiosity, why no Battletoads in Battlemaniacs? Is there something significantly easier about that game I'm not aware of? Not questioning the decision (frankly, not like I need anything else brutally difficult!), just wondering.

I'm also thinking of Blaster Master, which has already been approved elsewhere. I tag-teamed it with my brother many years ago, but I don't think I've ever "legit" beaten it.
