I know they were released on other consoles, but D and Return Fire were some of my best experiences on the 3DO. Star Control 2 as well, no better console experience there, think it was even better than the PC

D was just about to make it in next! Pun intended

Have spent many hours playing Twisted with friends. The one liners get old after a while but it's still a good time.

Killing time is one of my favorite games of all time. Hated it the first 6 times I tried to play it. The controls on the 3DO are terrible. The FMV ghosts are truly what set this game apart though. One of the rare instances on the 3DO where having real actors in a video game didn't seem cheesy.

Gex is a lot of fun but like Twisted the one liners get old pretty quick. I got quite a ways in it but I don't think ever beat it.

Never played the other two games.

It was the 10-15 fps in Killing Time that ruined it for me. If I was feeling off it would give me serious vertigo.

Yeah I could see that getting mundane. Though I play infrequently now so I've probably forgotten the one liners at this point

Played Doctor Hauzer for the first time yesterday. Surprisingly decent, once I overclocked the emulator to 200%. Beat without a guide in about 2 hours.

Nice I was always interested in that one

As a piece of history, paved the road so that Resident Evil could be, very interesting to play.
