I just recently picked up a 3DO system from a coworker for cheap. My question is, are there any games(other then Need For Speed) that don't suck?

Please post your thoughts. I need some guidance here

[Rhindle The Red]

Doom and Wolfenstein 3-D are good versions on the 3DO. Alone in the Dark is also a good title. I have heard good things about Strahl.

The 3DO is also the only American system I know of to have adult titles:

Blonde Justice
Mind Teazzer
Sex

[Lemmi]

Guardian War
Road Rash
Return Fire
Return Fire : Maps O` Death
Slayer :Advanced D&D
Shockwave
Shockwave 2
Super Wing Commander
Wing Commander 3
Dragon Lore (3 CD's) RPG
FIFA soccer (this is the best sports game ever for the 3DO)
HELL : A Cyberpunk Thriller (staring Dennis Hopper)


Out of my 62 titles for the 3DO these are a few of my favorites

[Lemmi]

Oh Cosmic, what type of games do you like to play?
Sports
RPG
ADV
Puzzles
Interactive
Adult (heh i have the same titles Rhindle has, if those are his )

Thanks for the suggestions I like Action, RPG, and puzzles.

Rhindle and Lemmi(or anyone else)
How about your favorite(if you have one)in each of these:
1. Action
2. RPG
3. puzzles

Also, are there any Arcade games ported to the 3DO system?

Is there any place to get games for this system other then eBay?

These are playable with the 3DO's controllers?

[Lemmi]

Its hard for me to pick just one

Action - Stellar 7: Draxon's Revenge
- Return Fire
- Gex
- Road Rash (sweet music by Soundgarden)

RPG - Slayer : Advanced D&D 2nd edition
- Dragon Lore ( this is a RPG/Puzzle)

Puzzles - Daedalus Encounter w/ Tia Carrere
- The Incredible Machine


and heres some extra categories

Shooters - Space Pirates
- Mad Dog McCree 1 & 2
- Crime Patrol

Family - Twisted : The Game Show
- Family Feud
- Dennis Miller's : thats New's to Me (this is just him at a desk and he makes fun of topic's and news that you pick like he did on SNL)


Oh and Rhindle have you played PO'ed?

I like this game, cause you start out on a ship as the cook with a frying pan as a weapon beating up aliens

and i think all games will work with the 3DO controllers, cause i dont have a light gun yet and i use the controller for the shooter games

And if you lived near me you could go to Gibralter Trade Center a guy there has a few games left for the 3DO, But 90% of my games i got New shrinkwrapped when EB/Babbages were selling them (buy 2 get one free)

Lemmi-

I've played PO'ed, but only on the PSX. (I only have about six games for the 3DO.) I didn't think much of it in the gameplay department.


CosmicJoke-

Doom and other FPSs play as well as on any of the old consoles. The 3DO versions of id's games are pretty similar to the Atari Jaguar versions and play alike, as well.

And for the record, the adult titles absolutely suck!

In case you were wondering...

NO PUN INTENED huh rhindle?

and i agree

But "Plumbers dont Wear ties" is kind of interesting for the first 5 hours of playing it and you've done all the possible senarios

[CosmicJoke]

Hey, guys thanks for the information and reccomendations. I am going to see if I can find some of the titles you reccomended.
