Summer Game Challenge 2013 - Begin when ready!

-Silent Hill Shattered Memories (no Silent Hill games after 2 should count, even a "reimagining")

I agree with Ack here, I think the cutoff should at least be at Silent Hill 3. After it, 4 was a weird experiment, and everything since was outsourced to other devs. Not like it applies to SM anyway though...

-Tales of Eternia - a He-Man game! oh, no...a "Tales" game. Are any of these considered classics? this one had pretty mediocre reviews...

I think maybe Tales of Symphonia could maybe pass the bar for being classic? Being exclusive to Gamecube, a console definitely not known for its RPG library, helped it stand out a bit.

You damn right you take that list off, ass. And you'll be hearing from when when I start playing your "passable" games, your royal jackassness!

Back to the Future (too new, largely seen as shitty)
Stacking (too new, largely seen as meh)

Eh, my list is more of cleaning out backlog than games that are earth shatteringly good.

Back to the Future is soso, but Stacking is excellent.

Not sure why they fit into the challenge then...

Here's my final list:

1. Shining Force II (Genesis)
2. Final Fantasy Tactics (PSP)
3. MediEvil (PS1)
4. Turrican (Genesis)
5. Duck Tales (NES)
6. Commander Keen in Invasion of the Vorticons (PC)
7. Eye of the Beholder (SCD)
8. The Last Blade (Arcade)
9. Alex Kidd in Miracle World (SMS)
10. Zork (PC) (double dip with TR in Sept.)

Solid list dave, though double dipping zork and shinig is pretty weak.

My comments:

Here's my final list:

1. Shining Force II (Genesis) - OK choice...I guess.
2. Final Fantasy Tactics (PSP) - You should be playing the PS1 original...on a PS1.
3. MediEvil (PS1) - Not a "classic" by any stretch...not even a "cult" classic.
4. Turrican (Genesis) - Maybe if you were playing on the PC and you lived in Europe.
5. Duck Tales (NES) - Finally! A true classic
6. Commander Keen in Invasion of the Vorticons (PC) - I have never heard of this game, and I cannot be bothered to look it up. I will assume it is not a classic, and I suggest you remove it from your list.
7. Eye of the Beholder (SCD) - Maybe if you were playing with pen-and-paper...but, seriously, the Sega CD version? Seriously?
8. The Last Blade (Arcade) - This is a good game that is entirely too new to be a classic. Also, how exactly do you plan on playing the arcade version?
9. Alex Kidd in Miracle World (SMS) - Only weirdos liked this game in the '80s, and no one likes it now. It is not a classic.
10. Zork (PC) (double dip with TR in Sept.) - I can't argue with this one, but I would never play it today.

Please revise accordingly and have it back to me before COB today.
