For those of you who don't know, Edge Magazine is a highly respected, some wouls say highbrow publication based in the UK. Sort of a British Famitsu.

They have just released a list of forgotten games which includes some, that I'll list, that maybe are of interest to people here.

"So here are 50 games that deserved better than a steep slide into obscurity. Games that get lost in the middle of a pile............"

Seaman

Marathon (Yes it is playable on the Dreamcast ;) )

Outtrigger

Project Justice:Rival Schools 2

Revolt

Ferrari F355


Also of interest may be Toe Jam & Earl 3 (which I think was meant for a DC release) and Die Hard Arcade(which I'm reliably informed by CD AGES was the prequel to Dynamite Cop on DC)

Of interest to me also was the inclusion of Flower, Sun & Rain as it's one of my favourite DS games and usually overlooked by everybody !

Ah, thanks... ^^

Very nice list indeed. Will check out some of the games listed.

By the way, Ecstatica is the bomb. I remember playing that one when it was still fresh... ^^
