Favourite Non-DK game(s)

Blasphemy in the Donkey Kong forum!! Cast out the heretic! Heh.

I'm curious what the DKC forum's favourite games are which are non-donkey kong related (though I have broken the rules with conker and banjo kazooie). It'll be interesting to see if our love of Donkey Kong Country is a coincidence (where everyone has different favourite games) or the result of similar tastes (where everyone has similar favourite games).

Mine is F-Zero GX (gamecube). I loved the speed and challenge in this game.
A close second to that is Okami (on wii). Beautiful artwork and warm lively characters made this an epic adventure.
A third game is Beyond Good and Evil (gamecube and xbox). It was atmospheric with a tightly woven little world that focused on the story of a conspiracy and the individual (and the graphics were gorgeous at the time).
A fourth is Conker's Bad Fur Day (N64). Interesting gameplay elements just like Beyond Good and Evil where the developers kept it interesting by providing unique scenarios very often. Loved the multiplayer elements.
A fifth game I really loved was Sonic Adventure Battle 2 on Gamecube. I loved the punk music with the sonic/shadow sequences. Though I quite liked the anti-hero elements of shadow and how epic the climax of the game was (it went into space).
Banjo-kazooie is probably my last favourite in this list. Quite wonderful music and atmospheric gameplay. Particularly the final world (woods or rather) and clankers cavern.

Asides from that I 'really like' games like zelda series (best being wind waker), star fox adventures, dragon age, mass effect, dead or alive 4 etc.

Wrong forum... [Simion32: Topic Moved]


I'm mainly just a platformer person. My top favorite games include the early Sonic games, Super Mario World, Super Mario Sunshine, and Little Big Planet.

Zelda series
Mario series
Smash Bros. (does that count as DK or not?)
Final Fantasy XII
Pokemon
Dragoon
Sonic
Pac-Man
Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean
Baten Kaitos: Origins (the prequel to BK: EWatLO)

I was wondering if Yu-Gi-Oh! counted. It's actually a card game but they've made it into a video game several different times.

Well if I were to go off my favorites list. I tend to prefer the platformer, and RPG genres.

The Chrono series, I just finished Chrono Cross the other day, and It was pretty much slated to make the top of the list when I hit the concert scene.

Yeah, some RPGs are cool. Baten Kaitos is probably the best one I've ever played if you don't count some of the LoZ games.

Mother 3. This game has the best story of any video game I have ever played. Please, members of DKC Atlas, I beg of you to go download the ROM, download the English patch, get a GBA emulator and play away. Mother 3 is the sequel to a game called Mother 2, or Earthbound in the US. Earthbound was the only game in the MOTHER series to be released in the US, or even out of Japan. The original MOTHER, which was for the Famicom, was planned for an English release in 1991, and it was fully translated and localized, but was not released because of the new Super NES. Anyway, I'm rambling on, but please get a ROM of this game and the translation patch and an emulator and play away!

Banjo-Kazooie. That game just means so much to me...

Oh, anything by Rare before Kinect Sports, really.

And I like games such as RollerCoaster Tycoon as well.
