          I played a lot Demon Attack on my Vic20: Imagic created some great titles !
          Even if Atari sued Imagic for Demon Attack because of its resemblance to Phoenix...

            @udb23 Odd that Demon Attack was so well known for Atari 2600 when they also had a port of Phoenix.... was Demon Attack an upgrade?

              @muehltime Concept is similar to Phoenix as you have to shoot birds too; "demons" :-D
              But gameplay is different and to me graphics were better (for that time) than other games both for Atari and Vic20.

                    Game Boy Advance: I recently found my old SP in a box in the garage, but I didn't find any Advance games. I honestly couldn't tell you what games I had, except for an Isometric Star Wars game that was pretty fun, until I got to a Droideka that I couldn't get passed.
                    Nintendo 64: Mario Kart (I only played N64 once at a mate's place for a party)
                    NES: I never really played much NES, so I can't tell you a favourite.

                    PlayStation 1: Star Wars Demolition
                    Sega Gamegear: Sonic (can't remember which one. I used to swap with a school friend, my gameboy for his gamegear. I'd play it under my bed covers when I was supposed to be asleep. The backlit screen was awesome.)
                    Sega Genesis/Megadrive: General Chaos (This is probably my number 1 game of all time. I never even played it multiplayer, which is apparently where the game really shines.)
                    Sega 32X: Virtua Racing
                    Sega CD: n/a

                                      Ok, as i read this list i am seeing WAY too many people not saying SNATCHER as their favorite Sega CD game. This can only mean that everyone here hasn't played it! If you haven't, you must. It's Hideo Kojima's finest work.

                                        I would added Snatcher to my "ToPlay" list if you mentioned this name before!

                                        I've added it now. :)

                                          @capeman I think most SegaCD games are difficult to get into if you didn't play them originally in the pre-Internet world. The load times and flow-choppiness do not age well. Coming at Snatcher from present day, I found the tic-tac-toe shooting screens to seem very primitive and surprising.

                                          With that said, it is on most people's top 5 lists for the system, and warrants a playthrough.
