"While Tomb Raider II is far from being a sophomore slump, it alters certain key ingredients to the point where topping the original is simply impossible. There's an endless list of reasons why this is so but then it's the kind of situation that really doesn't benefit from additional dissection. Still when all is said and done Tomb Raider II is the game it is because of the misdirected opinions of fans."

The unfortunate part is the same can't be said for the entries beyond this."

"Final Fantasy VII may have been my first RPG, but Wild Arms ended up first in my heart and soul. It's kind of difficult to explain how that happened considering it was more of a "filler title" to most but there are few games within the genre that can challenge the impact it had on me. The only question that remains is which is better: the original or the first sequel? A truly unsolvable paradox...."

Regardless, the game became a cult classic even though a lot of it's inner workings were left unfinished and unexplained."

"While it's disappointing that sacrifices had to be made to the level designs to optimize Doom and Doom II for their PlayStation debut it is easily the best 90's port of the game for the home consoles. The game feels right on the PlayStation controller by there is obviously no dual shock support because of the product's age. Additionally, the lack of memory card back-up is another shortcoming.

"Twisted Metal 4 is still home some of the problems that plagued 989's first attempt at a Twisted Metal (the cars and characters are still horrible) but the improved level design and weaponry make it a pretty good apology for the aforementioned trainwreck that was Twisted Metal III.

There aren't many games I can say about that (the only other one that comes to mind is Mega Man II) but along with Square's Final Fantasy VII Tomb Raider sold me on the PlayStation. The bad part?

"The poster child for corporate greed overruling artistic vision, Mega Man X6 is an ugly game that should, quite frankly, not exist.

"Like the games before it, Breath of Fire III may be a little too comfortable with the J-RPG essentials we've come to know and love. There are only a couple of areas where the game takes any kind of calculated risk but recreating that old-school magic of yesteryear was what Capcom was aiming for. Perhaps this is why the game has aged so well, almost like a fine wine.

"Perhaps the most important title in Twisted Metal's long and storied history, Twisted Metal 2 is another case where the sequel outdoes the original without doing anything too radical to the underlying formula.

"Like the games before it, Breath of Fire IV leaves many of the usual role-playing calling cards alone and again focuses on the areas unique to the series. However, as simple as such a plan is at its core, there's an odd sense of dullness that presides over the entire experience that ultimately transforms what is a well-crafted title into a dry, touch-and-go affair that never really pops off the screen.

"There's one absolute certainty when the discussion turns to Syphon Filter: the comparison to Metal Gear Solid. While it falls short of such a plateau it's hardly the dagger some make it out to be. In fact, by sacrificing a little quality for some quantity (and indulging in the genre's deeply rooted cheese factor) Syphon Filter manages to carve out a comfortable little niche for itself."

Additionally, the game looks even better once it's compared side by side with its two immediate sequels which were rather lazy works."

"Instrumental in forging the PlayStation brand as an edgy and more wreck loose property than its competitors early on, Twisted Metal may be as ugly as sin but that didn't stop it from being the kind of title the console needed at the time. While the original doesn't quite stack with the first sequel it's safe to say Twisted Metal had more of a future than Toshinden despite running into its own problems."

"If there was a list of games that desperately needed to be remade Parasite Eve would be at the top (or near the top) of that list. Beyond the magnificent techno-based soundtrack the game has failed to age well and the concept behind it's narrative can only carry it so far. As for the list of improvements that should make the cut the second time around you can count me in for a run/dash and dodge button."
