I don't know what my top five are off the top of my head but I know I like Super Mario Sunshine quite a bit better than most people do. 

Guess I'll have to listen and see if y'all mention some good ones that aren't coming to mind as far as "top 5" worthy for me right this minute!

I'll say this after listening a bit: I prefer the original Sly Cooper because of its linearity ... not really feeling the Crash Bandicoot comparison outside of that though. Those games feel pretty distinct to me. 

That's a lot of great games; I want to play River City Girls some time.

I put City Undercover down a while ago because it didn't seem as easy to get a Platinum in, but maybe I'll go back and get it some time. 

Thus far, I prefer Shredder's Revenge to Streets of Rage 4 quite a bit. I think the former's soundtrack holds up a lot better when compared to its classic counterpart, the sprites look better to me, I have more fun with the level design, controls are smoother etc. 

I'm curious why you like Streets of Rage 4 better. To each their own, just interested in hearing why that's a 10/10 for you but TMNT Shredder's Revenge doesn't quite get there (obviously you mentioned the length being an issue, but what else?)

I like it a lot but I'm waiting for more games to be made specifically for it rather than so many PS4/PS5 releases at the same time. 

I like games that take full advantage of what the system can do. 

Haptic feedback and sensitivity triggers are also hit-or-miss depending on the game. I'd say go for it now that they're ~$500 and much more widely available but you could wait until the rumored PS5 Pro next year to pick up a vanilla PS5 at a price drop. 

Shredder's Revenge sounds fun. 

Hmm ... Shredder's Revenge seems fun. 

I wish high on life was on PS5 cause I doubt it runs on my PC.

So, my personal experience with COVID was far more mild, but I've always had a fear of dying by being crushed/being deprived of oxygen. 

Helllll nawwwwww

Those remind me of old EGM ads. Much nostalgia.
