When I was very young, I can't remember when, I used to visit family abroad and when we went to the beach there, we would sometimes go down to the arcade there and play Sunset Riders. It was my brother, my cousins and I and the 4-player arcade version was perfect for us. We would play so much, but we were so bad at it. Then, after the first time we had played it on arcade, my dad bought the game for our Sega Mega Drive and my brother and I loved playing the game as much as possible. We played co-op, versus, single player taking turn. We finished the game several times and we had our favorite characters from the go. Billy was my favorite and my brother would play Cormano, no questions asked. Always like that. We would try different difficulties, try different ways of playing the game. It wasn't our favorite, but for some reason, it's the one I most associate with having fun with my brother. To this day I listen to the music of that game and feel a tug in my heart, thinking back at the days when I would play this game with my brother, having the best fun ever. Having this game again would be amazing, especially if there was the chance of playing it online with my brother, since we live far from each other. I believe this game never got the love it deserved and perhaps a new generation of gamers would appreciate it more.
My Grandmother had a super nintendo at her house for us to play on when we spend weekends there. I wasn't very good at anything, but we used to play this alot.

After classes, high school, a friend and I would would play an arcade in a bar. We spent a lot of coins on that machine! After a while, I would end the game with just a coin. The bar has changed, the owner is not the same, the friend moved away from town, but everytime I pass nearby I hear a YAAYEEH, and remember those [always] summer days. Vote for this GOG!
This was one of my favourite games to play growing up. I can't even imagine how many hundreds if not thousands of hours I dumped into this game on my SNES and old tube TV.

Jet Set Radio HD
Jet Set Radio HDJet Set Radio HD is the latest remaster in a string of Dreamcast "hits" to see new life on download platforms, but Sega has been insistent that they've learned its lessons. The publisher has emphasized how hard it's trying to get things right this time, and for many, it couldn't have chosen a better game. Jet Set Radio was part of Sega's onslaught of new properties with an emphasis on flash and style during the second wave of Dreamcast software, but it might be one of the more obscure. It's a game that almost everyone has heard of, but I think few have actually played. This was remedied somewhat with 2002's Xbox sequel Jet Set Radio Future. Unlike Sonic Adventure or the arcade hit Crazy Taxi, Jet Set Radio HD is the chance for many to finally play a game they've only heard about. Nostalgia has the side effect of high expectations though, and Jet Set Radio HD just can't meet them. While the flash and style of Jet Set Radio HD remains untouched and unvarnished by a dozen years of progress, the rest of it can't stand up to scrutiny. Squirrely controls, camera catastrophes, and nonsensical level design make Jet Set Radio HD a better memory than game.
