Super Mario 64. I was too young to appreciate what Nintendo did when it came out, but now I'm older it's even more impressive. Not only did Nintendo lay the blueprints for every 3D platformer that would follow, but they also made arguably the best one - at first attempt.

Unbelievable.

Chuck Rock II: Son of Chuck - 1993

Always loved that game as a kid. Also liked Cool Spot, of the same year.

Global Gladiators was an odd game. What the hell was McDonalds involvement?! :S

@get2sammyb: Yeah..according to wiki:

The game is loosely based on the McDonald's fast food chain and has a strong environmentalist message.

lol.

Hate on Sonic as much as you want, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is a master class of a platformer.

Global Gladiators! I remember playing it at a friends house in the early 90's........still has great animation to this day.

@sub12: The Mega Drive Sonic games definitely still hold up. It's a real shame that some of the more recent games have been rubbish. This year is the 25th anniversary so hopefully they're planning a super cool new game to go along with that
