Some of those aren't even good, although I could say the same for a couple of ones that did make it. Might as well throw up images of Beyond the Beyond and Quest 64 while you're at it.

Fine, will just all agree that Hydlide won this competition instead of P5.

True beauty exists in things that last only for a moment.
Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...
I hadn't heard of Hydlide, but it doesn't seem to have been regarded as a bad game. At least for its time. I'd wager it's a bit primitive to stand up against most of the games in this competition, but I was kind of expecting something notoriously bad.

Hydlide 2 isn't bad, but a bit grindy, and Hydlide 3D is awful, but actually had some interesting concepts. As for the original I've seen a couple of reviewers cover it. I think ProJared and AVGN did videos on it, and both though it was pretty crazy and stupid, but not only in basic old school ways that are expected, there are actually a lot of crazy secret stuff to continue that I'm not sure many normal people would have figured out back in the day. I imagine most people have fond memories of it simply because it is attached to their childhood. I wonder if anyone who was an actual adult remembers it as fondly from back then
