when the Dreamcast console was in its closing days (just after the Peter Moore announcement), I urged a family related to a friend to pick up a Dreamcast console and *Jet Set Radio.* Instead, the family picked up a new N64 and *Jet Force Gemini.* I jus shook my head. And i think that's the moment i stopped caring. Sidenote: The Dreamcast was only like $75 at that time...brand new

I remember encouraging a friend in High School to get one. By then, they were down to $50 with Sega offering their SegaNet with it and possibly another perk or two. Would have been cool to get extra ones at that price, especially being brand new and a great system. Thankfully I still was able to have one and got to enjoy playing games on it

You're my guilty pleasure.

Light Gun FMV games. Give me stuff like Mad Dog McCree and Crime Patrol all day!

Jet Force Gemini is a MASTERPIECE BTW.

It’s fun to play The Goonies 2.

100% agreed. I HATED that game as a kid, but as an adult I love it!

I like the dreamcast 2k sports games more than most people. I play nfl, nba & ncaa 2k2 more regularly than I should considering how many other games I have that I haven't had the time to fully dive into

I see you are a man of taste as well.

Jaws on the NES is def my guilty pleasure. Insert cart turn brain off lol

Chrono Trigger, Secret of Evermore and the Donkey Kong Country Series were, and still are, my guilty pleasures on the SNES. Discworld on the PC was another one.

Untitled Goose Game is awesome and it's the first game that I played and beat with my youngest child! As far as "guilty pleasure" games...maybe physics based games like Humans Fall Flat, Polybridge, and You Suck at Parking all have a charm that I enjoy. Also, I have found a lot of fun with Let's Build a Zoo.

Oh man, people never talk about Jet Force Gemini. That was a game my brother got and never played, but it ended up being my go-to. I loooved that game, though I don’t think I ever beat it. I need to get back to it some day.

Sonic adventure 2 chao garden

I have a compulsion to play Spider-Man and X-Men: Arcade's Revenge several times a year.

Ain’t no shame in my game baby! There is no such thing as a guilty pleasure game... except for one of the mobile time sinks that I occasionally play. 😂 Honestly all of these games are very fun choices. My son absolutely loved all the Toy to Life games when he was a little one. He still keeps all the Skylanders and plays it occasionally. I took the LEGO Dimensions though. Loved that one! I have never heard of the Samurai Gunman. The PS1 had sooo many games. Good stuff Jay!

Sometimes I fire up Rising Zan just to hear that theme song. 😂

Jet Force Gemini is one of the GOATS of the N64!

Dance games definitely used to be my guilty pleasure about 10 years ago. I love rock band. Still not sure if people would consider that a guilty pleasure. I can't carry a note in a bucket, so if I'm singing when we're playing it's no one's pleasure 😂😂😂 Also, the one Scott gives me the most grief for This War of mine It's just utterly depressing but once I start playing it I can't put it down

I would absolutely include games like Rock Band and Guitar Hero in the guilty pleasure category - because I am 100% there, too. 😂

Jet Force Gemini is a fun game. I keep it around and hope to beat it one day. I am also hoping that toys to life makes a comeback. I have some good memories of playing skylanders and the like with the munchkin. I want a combo darksiders that has all the games in time line order so it jumps around who you play as. The first darksiders mostly takes place at the end of the series. Guilty pleasure games... Alf, Two Worlds, EDF Series.

Love the N64! Jet Force Gemini is great! Oh Pandemonium! I remember that game! Oh Cruis’n blast is a must play!! Great list of games.

WTF:Work Time Fun is my guilty pleasure. It's so goofy, but I've dumped hours into that game.

Dude, yes on Cruisin' Blast! When I picked it up I posted about it in a Discord chat, and received the comment "oh, a Raw Thrills game. Bet it's a cheap arcade experience" to which I replied, "yeah, that's exactly what I'm looking for ". Also, Monsters Inc on PS1. I put so many hours into that game in 2004. I think more people should play through it.

I don't recall anyone not loving Jet Force Gemini... maybe it's just my friends lol.

I didn't explain it well - more that it's my favorite Rare game and not something like Banjo or Conker. :) I got a little mush-mouthed at the opening before I really got warmed up.

WTF:work time fun [PSP] and Jaws Unleashed [ps2] are my picks

I love the LJN NES game Major League Baseball. World Series 95 on Genesis I also fantastic

Love seeing Starfox featured! I missed out on the Wii and anytime I see Starfox Zero, I get this urge to find a used Wii and finally play this game. Of all the Nintendo IPs I wish would see a resurgence, Starfox is it!

I like all the games you mentioned that I've played but I especially agree with you on Star Fox Zero that's one of my favorite video games and I have no idea why so many people hate it

I forgot about LollipopChainsaw! Always meant to play that. Thanks for reminding me 😂

I don't have many but I'm sure these two will suffice. - The Postal series. Specifically the mainline series because Brain Damaged is actually pretty well received but RWS didn't make it. I appreciate the absurdity and juvenile humor. And its no secret that the games are buggy as shit, but I will never stop playing them. Also, RWS are so good to their fanbase. - Kane and Lynch 2. I feel like buying it at full price would understandably piss people off but I bought it for like 4.99 at a gamestop when i first got my 360 in 2012. Its better than the first one in almost every way and I was fine paying 5 bucks for a 4 hour run time.

This seems strangely familiar…. Where did I see this? 😂😂😂 “Hey, lady, nice chainsaw!” 😁😎

Wow...where to start? I love your list. I love Skylanders. I would love another game. JFG is a great Rare game. The Rising Zan theme song sounds like a mix between 70s southern rock and Bon Jovi. 😂And true story: I've only ever played Pandemonium on the Nokia N-Gage of all places. I also love those last 2 "creating chaos" games you showed. I have many "guilty pleasures", but one I would mention is Onechanbara Z2: Chaos on the PS4. Some mindless zombie hack n slash fun. Take care! 🟩

GOAT SIMULATOR 1!!! GOAT SIMULATOR 2 and especially GOAT SIMULATOR 3!!!

I dunno about 'most approachable' with Star Fox Zero but I also thought it was a blast. Yeah the controls take some getting used to but once ya do it's fun as hell. My guilty pleasure I'd say would be War Gods. It's...not a good game but I love it. It's peak classic Midway cheesiness.

Untitled Goose Game is a must play experience. It was a blast with legit laughing out loud moments. Speaking of Star Fox, why does Nintendo hate that IP so much? Plenty of potential, just never delivered fully.

I love Jet force Gemini, it's one of my favorite games on the system. Sadly I've never beat the last boss I always run out of ammo. My biggest guilty pleasure is the Warriors games. I think I'm 1 away from a complete set.

If you like mindless hackenslash games, no more heroes 2 That was ported to the switch is a great pick

Pandemonium and Untitled Goose game, are nit games you should ever feel guilty about 😁 Skylanders, I just can't get on board with 😉 but 100% there's nothing guilty about pleasure when it comes to video games. But saying that, I still dip I to the FIFA games, and I might feel a little bit guilty about that 😂

Two Worlds for Xbox 360 has to be my worst. The story is silly. The graphics, mainly character models, look off. The framerate is choppy enough to make me feel sick if I play too long. Many walls meant to contain you are basically suggestions if there are any slopes around. Nearly everything can be sequence broken. You can murder nearly every NPC. The weapon upgrade system is utterly broken. There is nearly no penalty for dying. The back jump button breaks the combat. In spite of all of that, I can't say I don't have a strangely great time with it every few years.

Nice! 🤪👑😘

Star Fox zero is terrible! The controls ruin it! I've played all of 15 minutes of it and I was done. It has collected dust on my shelf since the day I bought it. The only game I regret buying more than Star Fox zero is Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild
